Don't You HATE People who ... ?

Well it just had to happen I guess ( or happen again ? ), some older person who is not happy with what other people are doing.

Don't You HATE People who: a) are Rude on the internet; b) who cut you off in Traffic; c) who try to cut into the line of people waiting at the Bank ( or in a Store ): d) who let their pets do their " Business " all over your lawn; e) who get upset if you are in your Car at an intersection and can't remember if you should turn left or right ? ( etc etc, I'm sure other pet peeves come to mind ).   

Nah.

My grandfather would elbow people in the ribs if they tried to cut in line. Hard.

Thanks for the post Ivandh, I think that your Grandpa had the right idea.

Another item: f) People who have loud vehicles that rattle the windows in your house as they pass by.

g) People who in the Summer decide that they need to start cutting their lawn at about 8 AM.

People who rev their engine in the front street for hours.

Make ignorant, sexist comments about women's chess.

I used to live in Georgia where everyone gets their Big Ass Truck and shows off how cool they are by knocking holes in the muffler so they can make as much noise as possible.

I remember parking next to one of these rigs in my own 20-year-old Toyota pick-up. The roof of the cab was barely above the wall of the bed. Mine was beat to hell with use, had rust holes, dents and scars, the other had clearly never hauled more than the driver. It was a strange place.

People who claim i'm checkmated....

Thanks for the recent posts, some good points there.

Another item: People who are in charge of big stores ( & Malls ) or Radio stations and decide to start playing Christmas music in mid-November. The time may have come to enact a new law that states NO Christmas carols to be played before December 1st ! ( except in private homes of course ).

People who state the bleedin obvious, but in great depth and with with such an enormous amount of detail you have to try to hide your yawns....?

Thanks for the post Ruby-Fischer. That is a good point, often getting too much info is over-kill but at the same time a person should be polite I guess.

Of course, always polite :)

Especially to your boss!

Sounds like most of our Chess forums.  

Thanks for the recent posts.

Another item is those goofy Drivers who insist on tailgating ( who told them that they own the road ? ).

Let me tell you, I've seen quite a few bad drivers. Of course there are the people in Georgia I talked about who get a giant truck and don't know what to do with it; in DC the traffic can be a nightmare; in Pittsburgh people bottle up all their attitude until they get in a car. Boston is the worst though by far. No matter what time it is or where they're going, they're 30 minutes late and it's all your fault! Fortunately Boston's one of a few cities in the U.S. that has a really great subway system. Let everyone pull their hair out above ground while I relax beneath all the chaos.

A person who "silent-fart" then looks at the person beside him/her or to you appearing to look innocent.

Many cities in America have an additional problem -- DWA, "Driving While Asian," especially the middle aged men and women.  They stop in the middle of the road when they are lost, and regularly cross lanes without looking.  Really scary shit, sometimes.  Even worse than those Pittsburgh drivers, after the Steelers lose. 

Thanks for the recent posts. I guess driving is one area where a person's true character comes to the fore ( ie: Road-Rage ).
