snowberry's avatar

Where I live, the speed limit is only a suggestion, and aggressive driving is winked at. Nevertheless, the police are just as willing to write you a speeding ticket. The problem is that even the police speed, tailgate chisel their way through traffic without blinkers, and generally are just as stupid as the other idiots drivers on the road. It’s rare to see a police car doing these things with its lights on…After all, the police are above the law here!

What really steams me is when I’m traveling the speed limit in the right lane (I travel in the right lane whenever possible) and somebody on a cell phone or otherwise zoned out tailgates me so closely I cannot even see the grille on their car! I have had a spotless driving record for a number of years. I have no intention of ruining that to satisfy some idiot in a car behind me.

I will not tolerate tailgaters. I cannot see any difference between a tailgater and any other bully, except that now they have a few tons of steel to magnify the damage they are liable to cause. My first response is to put on my emergency blinkers. But some idiots are too dense for that. If they don’t get the message, I slowly take my foot off the gas and wait for them to get tired of it and go around me. Yesterday I put on my emergency blinker for the bully woman behind me and after a while I began to slow down. When she finally got the message and passed me, boy did I get a dirty look! LOL

I can’t stand people who:

Think that gay marriage will somehow impact, impede or destroy their own hetero-marriage.

People that hurt animals, children, or their spouses.

People that hide behind all sorts of petty issues so that they don’t have to admit their racism, homophobia, or mysogyny.

Say that their boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse/SO has repeatedly lied or cheated on them or is a big mean drunk, or abuses them, and then they say they can’t/won’t leave them because they love them so much and they just can’t help it, but then ask me/us what they should do about this situation.

Have no compassion.

Who leave their dirty dishes in the sink at work and expect someone else to clean up their moldy 3 day old coffee cup and their rank, warm ranch dressing-slathered salad bowl or their exploded chili from the inside of the microwave oven.

People that smoke and share a phone with other people and don’t wipe off the stink from the mouthpiece after they’re done talking, even though there are wet wipes just for that purpose right next to the phone.

People that don’t flush their poops in public rest rooms, or leave poop smeared on the seat.

People that hock up stuff or blow snot rockets in public.

People that walk and talk on cell phones down the middle of the aisle in the parking lot and don’t move out of the way of cars coming. And those same people who won’t get off the cell phone while making a transaction at the cash register, which I think is extremely rude to the cashiers. And those same people who use those in the ear pieces (that I can’t see) and look at me and ask questions that I think are directed to me, then they get pissy when I say What? Because they’re actually on the phone. God, I wish they would bring back phone booths!

Boys and young men who purposely wear their pants so low that I am forced to see their butt cracks. Those same people who repeatedly grab at their crotches to hold their pants up

@HungryGuy When I saw it in the Q it did not bother me. I just figured it was written off the cuff, or maybe the OP doesn’t know. I rarely correct grammar or spelling on the internet, because it isn’t a term paper that is edited again and again. We tend to write quickly, and I get that. But, usually people catch someone else’s mistake when they read it. So, to see so many people continue to write that, I thought maybe people might want to know. Several people did write who.

Positivity/negativity ratio of 1:2 or worse.

linguaphile's avatar

I have a hard time with people who expect me to live by their schedule, demands, rules, expectations, etc. beyond a reasonable level of respect. I believe we should expect respect and civility from others, but there’s a point where the expectation becomes a pure demand for others to adhere to their own rigidity without any respect for others’ schedules, needs, rules, values, etc… Even to the point of becoming rude about it.

One example: one of the moms in town wanted to get our kids together for a pool outing. Her email went something like—“I can’t do it at 11, that’s when my kids eat. I can’t do it at 12 because Joe has his nap, and he has to nap for a hour and half. We will meet at 2.” I replied that my daughter was extremely fair skinned and towheaded, 2 PM would really be dangerous for her, even with sunscreen because of her hair, would 4 or 5 be okay? She replied, “No. at 3:30, my husband comes home. At 4, I start cooking and we eat at 5, then at 6 the kids…on and on.” And this was with the “2 Week Prior Notification” that she also required. After a few tries, I gave up. It was clear she refused to change her schedule because it was more important than our kids getting together, or my daughter’s safety.

I’ve met a number of people who refuse to change anything to accommodate others, but expect everyone to accommodate them, then criticize others if they don’t (sometimes as if they commited a cardinal sin for not accommodating them!). I honestly never know what to do with those kind of people. I was raised to be considerate of others and to compromise as often as needed, so I thoroughly do not understand that type of thinking…

@erichw1504 and @noelleptc I used to be a picky eater until I became a vegetarian. Then I really learned how to cook and to experiment with foods and to try new things. I had to, or else I wouldn’t eat. I have overcome a lot of my food phobias (by trial and error and continuing to try things that I thought I didn’t like until I found preparations that worked for me) and now embrace things like tofu, mayonaise, tomatoes, mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, onions and spicy food that I hated when I was younger. I turned myself into a food enthusiast, hopefully I won’t turn myself into a house!

JLeslie's avatar

@linguaphile it’s not about that. She is giving her rigid schedule, and in a way so are you. You think she should bend, and she wants you to. If you can find a compromise great, but if none of the times work, then her reasons are not less important than yours is all I am saying.

Dutchess_III's avatar

People who are too proud and too “smart” to ask other people questions about things they don’t know about.

linguaphile's avatar

@JLeslie Maybe so, in this situation, but refusing to bend regarding my daughter’s health is one of the very few things I am inflexible on. I’ve almost always have been the one that was willing to accommodate others and went out of the way to make others comfortable. I didn’t make that clear in my post, but my point was more of—I already bend, and am willing to bend, but if it becomes a demand or an order, I really don’t like it. It negates the cooperation and balance of the give and take in the relationship/friendship. I used to be the one that was always there for others, no matter how awkward (delousing a house?) or heavy (driving someone 55 miles to sit with her while she informed her parents of her rape)... but over the past few years, too many people started to demand it and became angry when I couldn’t (or didn’t) step up and that changed the ‘climate.’ It became an expectation that I’d always do it, then a demand. It’s only been recently that I’ve stopped “complying” and that’s what I’m referring to here- my frustration with that shift from give-&-take to demands.

JLeslie's avatar

@linguaphile I certainly don’t think you should always be the one to bend. I also do not think you should compromise your child’s health. It just sounded like your friend was going on and on with all of these details, and then you had your reasons too. All I can say is if you were my girlfriend, I would not feel the need to know why it is a bad time for you necessarily, although we might share that because we are friends and it is a concern of your for your daughter, I would accept that your time is just as valuable as mine. I would not expect you to be the one to bend. I would expect if we want to be together we would find an acceptable time of day, or understand it is difficult to make a pool date, and organize something else another time. No one should be bent out of shape for a fun date.

JLeslie's avatar

@linguaphile It didn’t sound like she was demanding you to do something. I think you worry she will think you should be complying with her “demands” but maybe she is just letting you know when she can do it. If I were her I would say I can do it between 12:00 and 3:00. Yours is after 4:00, which is rather late for most families. I think the late morning date with lunch sounds really good. Could that work?

Also, I am sure you know your daughters tolerance to sun very well, but I burn in 30 minutes in the sun, but if I just wear 8 SPF or more I can easily be out for an hour or two in the midday FL sun. Top of my head is a problem where my part is, I have to keep a barrette in to eliminate the part, or wear a hat, or stay in the shade.

Sunny2's avatar

I have trouble with people who speak too loudly without regard to what is going on around them. I realize some people are hard of hearing and don’t realize how loud they are, but usually someone with them will shush them. Coming into a movie theater or any hushed place and talking in a loud voice is just inconsiderate. Same with talking during the movie or performance without making your voice more quiet.

Text while doing anything other than sitting.

have to constantly check their smart phone no matter where there are or what they’re doing. In the middle of an important meeting, taking a shower, at the movie theater, while their first child is being born.

Did anyone say this? Text while they’re supposed to be visiting you. I finally, mildly, clocked my daughter for that the other day. I said, “Who are you talking to?” She mumbled who, and I said, mildly, “You know, we really need to put some social constraints into place on texting while talking with other people, just like we’ve always done on other things, like interrupting….” She quitted!

Fall in love harder than anyone human being has ever fallen in love before and post it on Facebook… about every other month.

I can’t stand when people are:

Abusive
Racist
Greedy
Sexist
Loud
Rude/Impolite
Superficial
Conceited
Violent
Fanatically Religious
Ignorant
Emo
Hypocrites

And, I’m sure there’s more.

It’s not the people themselves that I can’t stand ..usually. I can hate someone’s personality but not hate them, if that makes any sense.

Who don’t get their money out while their purchases are being rung up, but instead wait for a total then look surprised that they have to pay for it. Then they start rummaging through their billfolds looking for bills and lose change.

@Dutchess_III That is my dad’s biggest pet hate! He is always complaining about people that do this.

@noelleptc are you bothered because you think it is dangerous how fast they are going, or you feel like they should not be in such a hurry or what? If they go around you how are they bothering you? If they are tailing you too close, that I understand because it is dangerous.

@noelleptc LOL. No, you don’t have to have a reason, I was just wondering. It bothers me when people are bothered by something that seems not bothersome, but of course all of us have our thing, you are entitled to yours.

@noelleptc – I usually take the bus or the train, so don’t look at me :-p

People who chew with their mouths open on the bus.

@noelleptc OMG! I assume she is ok, or you would have told us she was hurt badly. I guess the hit and runners are people who have been drinking, or are in trouble enough of the time that they are terrified of another bad mark, or someone very young.

@noelleptc Maybe she didn’t even have permission to take the car out. I assume your friend reported it to the police. They can try to narrow down a white camry or accord in the area possibly. Is it likely the car was scratched up?

6rant6's avatar

Maybe she was undercover for the CIA and she had a nuclear device in the trunk of her car. She was frantically racing across town to the place where the evildoer – who was seeking vengeance for the death of his twin brother, Darrell, drowned when his kayak ran afoul of salmon stairs somewhere in Oregon – was being held so that he would be faced with his horrible creation and then be forced to disarm it and save his own skin. Maybe. Could also be a twin sister. not darrell of course.

@noelleptc Is there any chance she didn’t realize? I once was in an accident and the poor guy didn’t realize he had swiped my car.

jonsblond's avatar

I can’t stand people who let their young children have Facebook accounts and don’t supervise their activities. seriously, an 11 year old girl with a profile pic of herself in a bikini. 256 friends? She lives in a little farming community. how does she know 256 people? ugh… (I needed to rant, sorry. lol)

Plucky's avatar

@jonsblond I completely agree with you. That really bothers me. There are so many parents who need to wise up already.
