    People who turn on their blinker AS THEY ARE TURNING.
    People getting over into the fast lane only to run side by side with the car they were just trying to pass.
    That awful awful "see-food" joke.
    Anything Channing Tatum does... I mean come on, the ladies may think you're easy on the eyes, but your acting is atrocious. Just quit. I'm embarrassed that his hometown is less than 2 hours from me.
    Selfishness of any sort

    When people only take 1 or 2 ice cubes out of the tray. Or when they don't fill up the ice tray after emptying it. People do this all the time at work.

    I also would get sooooo annoyed when I was pregnant and we were going out to eat with people, people would always say, "ask the pregnant chick."

    1. Threads which are basically just "Please compliment the previous poster by saying how attractive they are"

    2. People who say "Don't read them then!"

    For those horse lovers at the start of the thread. I hate it when folks say "That's not a sport. You just sit there." Grr... I'd like them to try and just sit there and somehow magically fly over the jumps.

    People who leave the toilet seat up, it's just basic hygiene to close the lid.

    Right? Who flushes the toilet with the lid up?? Thats just unsanitary.

    I have a few, but here are the top 3 on my list:

    1. People who start every answer to any question with "Right, so..."

    Q: Hey, can you tell me how this works?
    A: "Right, so you just pull the handle and the juice comes out"
    Q: And does it remove the pits?
    A: "Right, so it does remove the pits, but not the pulp"
    Q: I don't mind the pulp, though - do you like pulp?
    A: "Right, so... I like the pulp but not too much pulp"
    Q: OK, now how do I get out of here?"
    A: "Right, so you go right, then make another right."

    2. People that hold up the checkout line because they don't "understand" how the credit card swipe reader works; these are the same people who forget their own ZIP code and try to use coupons from last week's circular.

    3. Going "Green"...

    People who spell lose as "loose". I actually had to cut down on reading posts because it. There are way too many people that do that on here, and it makes my skin crawl every time!!

    1.) People that procrastinate and then tell me they want it "ASAP" because they have a deadline. Sure fire way to piss me off and ensure I will take my sweet time getting it to you.

    2.) The word "moist".

    3.) People that slurp their drink or people that continue to suck on a straw after the drink is gone. For the love of God refill the dang thing!!!!

    I have thought of some more, people who chew their food loudly- and I don't just mean crunching- that is fine- but people who chew with their mouths open and they make that "smack" sound--- OMG drives me insane!!....... breath... breath.... ok

    Also people who speed up after they were driving super slow so that I cant or to try to stop me from passing them!!
  • People hanging out in the left (fast) lane.
    Critics who haven't spent a nanosecond living what they're criticizing.
  • People who don't use their turn signals and people who say things like "Checkings account" when referring to ONE account or people who say ATM Machine....you are being redundant!

    People who can't forgive their relatives for an imagined or real insult. Especially mothers and fathers who won't forgive their own children or disown them, or on the other hand, children who won't forgive their parents. How those people can live with such gnawing anger and animosity is just beyond my understanding.

    It is your obligation if you want to be courteous.

    ABSOLUTELY! I'm done being the responsible one that has to watch after everyone else's kids. If they're playing too close to the barbecue or about to eat a potentially poisonous flower it ain't my problem anymore.

    When you are standing in the rain waiting to cross a street and someone in a warm dry car slowly goes by. Either stop to let me pass in front or drive a normal speed and get out of the way! Rain is cold in the winter.

    It is their obligation to lift it if they want to be courteous.

    Just because something is difficult, doesn't make it a sport. I'm not saying one way or the other on what is or isn't a sport. I'm just saying that just because something requires athleticism and is difficult, that doesn't make it a sport in my opinion.

    According to the dictionary: a sport is an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature.

    Yeah, idiot car drivers. And those who, when stuck in standing traffic, pull over to try and stop you filtering (or lane splitting for US and Aussies) when there's absolutely no need to. It's not like I'm gonna get to the front of the queue and hold you up. You won't see me for dust. 0-60 in 3.5s is supercar speed matey, I'm gooooooooonnnnnnnneeeeeee!!!

    I had to look up lane splitting as I didn't know there was a name for it... but here in the US it's largely illegal except for in California... people here do it anyway... either way, I don't like it because motorcyclists come out of no where when they do that and I would rather know where you are and where you are coming from so I don't change lanes and hit your sorry *kitten*. But then motorcyclists usually don't do this during standing traffic, but rather moving traffic they feel is too slow for them.
