Local gas prices have risen .25 cents per gallon in the last 3 days. I'ts now up to $4.25 for the cheap stuff and in some areas such as La Jolla it's up even more! Granted..... I dont do a much driving these days so I personally am not effected by it but the Wife for instance drives 60 miles per day back and forth to work in her smaller SUV and it costs a lot. This is 6 days a week for her mind you! Seems as if whenever a Holiday is approaching the prices sky rocket. G/dam phucking oil companies ALWAYS have some lame ass excuse for it too! I know... I know..........some of you live in Europe and its a LOT more as it's sold by the liter there!

I had one woman stand so close at a postal sub-station that I had to ask her to please stand back and give me some room. She muttered something about just trying to look at the stamps that were displayed on the counter and took off in a huff. The postal clerk said he thought she was with me (I had never seen her before then.)

What ticks me off is that when I am at a store directly looking at something and someone just crosses in fromt of me without uttering at least an "excuse me" like sound... Bseterds and mbitches...... this is typical of younger adults... can´t they go around?

Try for the express checkout lane (15 items or less enforced) if there is one and it's truly being used as such. (I like Costco's check-out system handling of coupons. Scan one and everything else in your cart that is coupon-eligible gets the credit.)

Ever notice that if you stand in an aisle and look at something on a shelf; someone will come along and stand in front of you trying to make sure they don't miss out on something! Sometimes I play a game to see how many times I can sucker some idiot into doing this then I say 'Wow that's a great deal!' and walk away knowing they will grab whatever they thought I was looking at

I hate it when people in the express line; or just one that has a lot of people waiting; don't get their purse or wallet out until the cashier has totaled everything...then they start futzing around in their bloody change purses to find the exact change and they count it all out twice so the cashier knows they are getting the right amount BS.gif deep-sigh-smiley-emoticon slapping

I got tired of paying for gas so I bought a UPASS...a discounted bus pass offered through my university.
But now I have to deal with stinky people and people who don't think to move seats when they become available and people who don't cover their mouth when they cough/sneeze and on and on

The kid says, "What's the matter old man? Never seen colored hair before?" The old man drawls, "When I was young, I got drunk and phuked a parrot. I thought you might be my son."

Driving down two lane road. Notice someone far ahead come to a stop waiting to pull out into the road, presumably waiting for me to pass. Waits until I'm almost on top of them before deciding they want to be in front of me rather than behind, then proceed to travel 5-10 mph slower than I was originally.
If I'm lucky enough to be on the motorcycle with no opposing traffic, I can quickly downshift and rocket past them. Otherwise I'm wishing the car had an A-10's rotary cannon mounted to the roof to exercise swift justice.

How about those idiots at the grocery store etc who are going to write a check for their purchase but wait until they are at the check out lane before they even begin to write it out! Damnit...........if your gonna pay with a check at least write the stores name in it and have already written the date and have your ID ready to show! Besides that.............who in hell still uses checks?

I hate gravity and mosquitoes. I can ignore just about everything else.
