The Federal Gov no matter who is running it.
The saying Only two things are guaranteed death and taxes.

People that feel the need to speak thier foreign language at a restaurant, so loud I cant have a conversation with the people at my table. Calm down, quiet the tone, instead of jabbering at your kids dicipline them, speak english or shut up.

People who say "you's". I.E. "You's guys should come down this weekend" Fuck off

MY BIG ONE. Yes I am from Texas. I really dont need to hear every time, "Only two things come from Texas, steers and queers." I dont say to natives " Know what comes from Colorado tree huggers and cocksuckers?"
I think the next time I hear that, Im gonna bitch slap someone.

Im better now.

Today is the second day in a row that someone has dropped a deuce in the stall next to me, wiped, flushed, and walked straight the fuck out of the bathroom without washing their hands.

When I hold a door open for someone, and they walk on through, I ALWAYS say, "YOU'RE WELCOME!" if they don't even acknowledge me.

So far this thread seems like quite the hit. You guys are seriously whiny. Great job.

So what's the problem as long as you don't crap on your hands?

thats why i always hang on to my paper towels to open the door. if you push it I kick it open or use the paper towel. pull and I have to use a paper towel. then there better be a trash can near the door in the bathroom or that towel is going straight on the floor.

people who don't cover their mouth when they cough or sneeze.

people who leave their shopping cart in the parking lot. I take OCD extremely good care of my vehicles, especially my truck, and a random cart in a parking lot waiting for a wind storm pisses me off. I have on several occasions yelled at people to put their carts away when in the parking lot. only when I am leaving so they don't key my vehicle.


people who can't get there their and they're correct, or other general grammar skills. I grew up with teachers for parents so it is instilled in me.

people who have know idea there is a difference between affect and effect and how to use them correctly, especially when it is in the paper or an internet article.

people who drive with one foot on the gas and one on the brake, usually they are accelerating and their brake light is still on.

my next one: break vs. brake. really not a tough one...

2wd cars who think they are doing a good job in the left lane during snowy weather or icy roads. GTF out of my way before you go sideways and cause a pileup. I want to be in front of you when that happens.

all I got...for now

good one!

Well, I suppose it's not that big of a deal. After all, I only work at a call center with a ton of people that sit at different desks every day.

You've called me on affect/effect before. At least they have a similar meaning.

You messed up the no/know by the way. I am pretty much required to point that out to you.
