Have you guys seen this yet? Some jackasses that work for Comcast are bottlenecking a country road and the drivers can't see them in time because they are on a hill. With the road being very icy, the results are disastrous.

So to fit this with the thread title, stupid people grind my gears.

Cell phone video shows cars sliding off icy Indiana road – is Comcast crew to blame? | WGN-TV

Shopping at a store looking at something on the shelves and some inconsiderate ass leans in front of you to take something. No excuse me, do you mind or pardon me. It's not like I was camped there.

When someone buys several hundred dollars worth of items then holds things up by digging through her purse for a $5 coupon. Then, realizing she left it at home, further holds things up by asking if the clerk can "do anything" about it.

Opening and holding doors for people who cant even say thank you or smile at you like your job in this life is to serve them.

Well, when you're a door man that is your job.

That among other things it seems. But really folks? How hard is it to say "thank you" and smile to someone going out of their way to be nice to you?

Tyring to buy a six-pack of beer at a convenience store and there are three people in front of you in line trying to pick fifteen different scratch-off tickets. I know I shouldn't judge people on how they look, however none of them "look" like they should be spending their money that way not to mention keeping me from getting my beer in a timely fashion.

Oh how I hate this one too... in fact ANY time someone is in line and doesn't decide what they want until they are up front... you've been standing here like the rest of us, make your freakin mind up while you are in line people!!!

I can buy beer at a gas station in MN, I can buy beer at the gas station in South Dakota, in ND i can't. This grinds my gears.

One year when I was in college, I worked 3rd shift as a cashier at a convenience store. People would buy something, count their change, buy something else, count their change, buy something else... they'd be at my register for 5 or 10 minutes doing this because they were idiots who couldn't figure out how much money they had and what they could buy with it all at once. Drove me nuts.

That's not a drive more like a short walk.

When I hold the door and they don't say thank you or at least acknowledge, I say "You're Welcome" loud enough for them to hear me.

I got cut in line at the shittiest, trash hole stores today multiple times. I make sure I turn to my wife and say aloud, "guess it wasn't our turn"

Stay away from Walmart. It's the devil.

Surprisingly enough that was the only trash hole store I went to that I didn't have a bad experience.

Local news stations that start with "Breaking News" when it's really not breaking news. The title "Breaking News" should be reserved for things like 9/11, killing Bin Laden, etc.

Okay what the hell is with the guys who go to the men's room to take a leak and they make an entire production about it? They unbuckle their belt, unbutton their pants, unzip their fly, and hang themselves over the waistband of their underwear. Meanwhile, the end of their belt is flapping in the breeze and rubbing all over the urinal and the wall thing. Um... what the hell? That's what flies (flys?) are for.

Some of us are just so big that the fly doesn't give us enough room to unleash the beast.

My sick roommate tried to hang out with me and talk and cough while I'm eating dinner last night. Look dude I understand that you normally don't get the social cues to leave instead of hanging around when you're not exactly welcome, but you're fucking sick. Get the hell in your room. I don't care if you're wearing a mask, you're fucking contagious. /rant

More like you're too small so you can't clear your jeans so you have to unbutton so as not to piss on yourself.

I was pissing in the trough at ND stadium one time and a weirdo in sweatpants waddled up next to and dropped his pants all the way to the floor to take a piss. He was literally bare assed right next to and I nearly pissed over everyone trying to escape.
