What Really Grinds Your Gears?

Also, I may have even posted this one before, but the asshole that steals your parking spot in the morning. He chaps my ass.

I park in the same spot every day, right next to a coworker, so I know that one side of my car, at least, will avoid dings and dents. And a little, ugly-ass neon blue box of a Scion parks on the opposite side of the row in a corner.

On occasion, for no reason, this dude will park his shitty, ugly car in my spot. I think he does it just to mess with me. We work on a college campus, and sometimes visitors or faculty members with special meetings will use our parking lot and take our spots. And I understand that means that people start a chain reaction of taking other people's spots. And I also understand that they aren't "assigned" spots. But this guy does it on random morning, when the lot is still empty.

But come on. That's like showing up for the last week of classes and stealing the seat I've been in all semester. It's bad juju.

My father-in-law is a multi multi millionaire. He is retired but still does some business things and has some side projects to keep a steady income. Last year he lost money. He started getting mail telling him he qualifies for healthcare subsidies and could qualify for other welfare programs. Out of curiosity and because he had the time he wanted to see how much "free stuff" he could get. Now my multi million dollar father-in-law has free healthcare and somehow gets about 100/month food stamps.

Am I the only person that thinks this is a real asshole thing to do? Seems to me that if said rich dude is so bored, maybe he should use his time/money to help bring up his community. Not defrauding social services.

But that's just me...

I pay for a parking permit, I feel that entitles me to planting a national flag on my spot and declaring it my personal country.

But for real, the guy is messing with my head, and I don't like it. Not one bit.

When you leave a voice mail for someone and they call you back without listening to it so you have to repeat everything.

Ha. I always do this.

My dad likes to mess with me. Whenever I call him, he will purposely not answer and let it go to voicemail. Then, when he knows I'm in the middle of leaving a message, he'll call me to interrupt.

He thinks it's the funniest sh*t in the world.

I cannot express in words how much this pisses me off. I have always sat in the back because it allows me to focus on the person when the question is asked. Whenever it's exam day some a$$ always tries to get in my seat.

Bruh. Sat in the same seat for the first 3 weeks of class this semester, and then come in late ONE time and somebody stole my seat. Just stared at them as I made another seat my home for the rest of the semester.

I sat in the back for every class, that way if I ever did anything embarrassing, it wasn't in front of everyone.

Also, I was a slacker.

It's inexcusable. Two weeks of attendance in the same seat is officially marked territory.

People who leave voice mails that go something like this, "I have something I really need to tell you, please get back to me as soon as possible."

Well, can you give me a hint....are we talking somebody died or are we trying to decide between muffins and crepes for brunch.

 

[ACamp1900]

People who use voice mail?? haha I never listen to those things... I see you called... I'll call you back...

 

[ACamp1900]

I always love to see the interactions with my students over seating (who sits where, who has which seat)... too funny. It's especially great when it's a soc. class I'm teaching... it's often a wonderful led-in...

 

[ginman]

that's why I stopped using vmail - pointless!

You need to screw with them some. Make them take a different seat for 3 or 4 days in a row. See if they automatically choose a different seat after 2-3 days, then tell them they have to stay put the rest of the semester.

So I'm on the highway (heavy traffic) taking a ramp to get onto another highway. Out of the blue some knucklehead comes screaming across the DMZ area right in front of me. He realizes he's missed his exit and decides he's going to put several lives at risk so he doesn't have to turn around at the next exit. I honk at him thanking him for almost killing me and the idiot gives me the finger like I'm the one in the wrong. The idiot continues to give me the finger several more times.

Nothing is worse than an idiot driver flipping you off or honking at you when they're the ones causing every issue at hand.

This happened during my childhood. Except we were the idiot driver......

 

[zelezo vlk]

I've gotten flipped off several times within the past few months, all in the same area too. I guess people don't like slowing down and would rather blow through stops signs.

 

[wizards8507]

People who say "hot mess" all the time. You sound like a goddamn idiot.

People who will clog the intersection even though they know the traffic isn't moving. It just creates a cluster f#ck and prevents those with the green from moving. Relax, stay back at the light and move up once traffic moves.

On a similar note: assholes who insist on speeding up when a traffic light turns yellow but still running red light. I learned, the hard way, that moving through an intersection immediately when my light turned green and being "T-boned" by an idiot "in a hurry."

Then there was a time when my wife was driving and the green light tuned to yellow when we were half a block away. Knowing that the light would be red before we got to the intersection, she slowed and stopped. The fuck-head behind us apparently assumed she was going to speed up to "make" the light and that he could sneak through the then red light wth us running interference.

It was winter in Minneapolis and the roads were slick from a layer of black ice and a dusting of snow.

After he rear ended us he was hopping mad blaming her for not jumping the light.

My hope was that, on top of the tickets he got, his insurance rates sky rocketed.

Drivers in back of me in a hurry when I'm not.

Drivers in front of me not in a hurry when I am.
