[tbonezone]

those people who buy and then start scratchin' lottery tickets at the checkout counter. hey jackpot junky...get a life.
just go out and sit in your car and at least give yourself the 5 minute illusion that you're suddenly a millionaire.

 

[AirForceOrange]

People who take up two parking spaces because they are too lazy to fix it...

 

[Cowtown]

you come into my house your shoes are left in the back porch mudroom.
if you want to be stylish best match your socks to your frocks.
no trackers means that much less cleaning for me. sorry if you're shorter
but i have several high priced orientl area rugs that cost a fortune to clean
and we love eggnog. and brandy and rum. and argyles.

Hey man, have you thought about what the foot sweat is doing to the rugs?

The beer/coffee people that tell you "it tastes exactly like......"

"This coffee tastes exactly like a cinnamon roll! Try it!! You HAVE to try this! OMG, sooooo delicious." That **** best taste exactly like a cinnamon roll if you say that, and it never does. It tastes like coffee with some cinnamon.

"OMG, you HAVE to try this beer - it tasts exactly like applewood smoked bacon!!!!" Uh, no it doesn't. It tastes like beer.

 

[Ghost]

The homeless people at the exits in Syracuse - at least Midler. I mean, I don't judge, no issue you asking for money, but you literally have all day - could you pick up your freaking garbage.

 

[Ghost]

When you signal a "dancer" with the twirl sign - and then she won't twirl. I went to all the trouble of moving my finger in a circle - the least you could is twirl once.

 

[Ghost]

People that leave their shopping carts anywhere they feel like...

Anyone who thinks that your tastes are going to be the same as their tastes. People who try to convert you to: their religion, their political beliefs, their vacation spot, their favorite coffee (especially if they are pretentious and it is way overpriced, their favorite car (again if they are pretentious and it is way overpriced), yada, yada, yada.

If they want to take me to their favorite watering hole or favorite golf course or buy me their favorite pizza or chicken wings, I can live with those. Don't shove anything else down my throat.

Having to go to a friend's 23-year old daughter's funeral service.

That's my day tomorrow.

 

[Dave85]

People who make you take your shoes off entering their house. We don't live in Japan - OK?

When I first read this my brain said, "People who make you take your cloths off entering their house."

 

[Dave85]

People who take up two parking spaces because they are too lazy to fix it...

People who do not park equally between the lines so if you parked they would not be able to get into their car.

 

[cuseattle]

Having to go to a friend's 23-year old daughter's funeral service.

That's my day tomorrow.

That sucks..

 

[DoubleDee]

When you order a soft pretzel, and she asks if you want salt on it.

I'm sorry, did I not say a pretzel?
A pretzel without salt, is not a pretzel.

And a donut without a hole, is a danish.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Having to go to a friend's 23-year old daughter's funeral service.

That's my day tomorrow.

Really didn't need to see that one come back to the surface.

RIP Callagy.

Stalls in public bathrooms where there is no hook on which to hang a pocket book. They always tell you not to place a pocket book on the floor because 1) it might be stolen and 2) it will collect all kinds of germs. Why do half the public bathroom stalls therefore have no hook on which to hang a pocket book?

 

[Briancuse]

People that leave their shopping carts anywhere they feel like...

People who have no idea how to maneuver a shopping cart, and danger everyone else.

 

[tptcuse]

"Fans" leaving before the end of the game...in Syracuse...where we pride ourselves as being "the best fans"

 

[tptcuse]

The hippies that ride their bikes to school at 40 below zero. Stop it, hippies. Stop going to the bathroom outside too.

CuseTroop releasing anguish is inspiring. The specificity is unprecedented.

 

[Toga]

People jogging before 6:00 A.M. when it's 10 degrees out. You are addicted. Stop it and join a gym until it gets warmer.

 

[tptcuse]

People who repeatedly say, "Don't worry about it. Everything will be fine." regardless o the situation.

 

[tptcuse]

People with "26.2" bumper stickers on their vehicles. Yippee---you completed a marathon. No need to let everyone else know. You did it! Good for you!

 

[Toga]

People who say:
New paradigm
Whatever
Can't wrap my brain around
Reach out to

 

[Jeremy L.]

People who have the red nose and antlers on their car. You people are just as bad as the ones with the mouse ears and whiskers

 

[OrangeTown]

People who literally use "literally" all the time in conversations when they literally mean figuratively.

Oops.

 

[realorange]
