#5 - Okay, while I agree this is bad, I have to say that I HATE motorcyclists. They are so rude - driving in-between lanes to get through clogged traffic, cutting people off, etc. In my city, at least. I had one driving in between lanes next to me once, and he knocked my side mirror forward!Date: 2/23/2009 6:42:46 PM

Drivers:
5. Who feel cyclists and motorcyclists are just target practice.
14. Who double park - because they are 'just' doing something, they feel able to inconvenience the rest of the road users by blocking a lane.
Because you don't like someone pointing out that you're wrong, or because you feel that you're right and they're incorrect in their "correction?"Date: 2/23/2009 6:49:04 PM

I HATE with a passion when people have to correct me on something....
As someone who recently paid over $1000 for car maintenance on a car that's likely only worth about 3 times that... I have to say I can't blame these people.I HATE how people put duct tape on their vehicles instead of just going to get them fixed....

I really dislike when people attempt to 'correct' me on something that is not within their area of expertise, but is within mine. It puts me in the awkward position of having to keep my mouth shut while thinking 'you know, I really would know better than you would.' Doesn't happen very often, thank goodness.

Bad drivers, drivers who are on the cellphone or texting while driving and driving 10 miles under the speed limit. People on the cellphone in the grocery store when you need that one item they are parked in front of while yapping about uber personal stuff.
I was damn near killed Friday night on I35 here in Texas in exactly that situation.Date: 2/23/2009 7:28:04 PM

I can relate to a lot of these!
One of my biggest peeves is when drivers are merging onto a highway and don''t bother to look to see who is coming. They are supposed to YIELD but they just look forward.
I''ve had a few times that I''ve had to scoot over to the left lane to avoid them smashing into the side of my car, and if there''s a car in that lane, then you can''t move over and you are stuck, having to put on the brakes. GRRRRRRR!!!!

#14 - OMG this happens at our busy grocery store all the time. The parking lot is tiny and sucks, but if everyone else is being courteous and waiting for a parking spot, why can''t you?? Grr.
You are SO right!Date: 2/23/2009 8:09:52 PM

It really irritates me when I go to the doctor for an appointment, and am made to wait 30+ minutes in the waiting room, only to be shown in to wait another 30+ minutes in the exam room without so much as an apology. I understand emergencies come up, people arrive late, schedules are thrown off. However, if I was made to feel like they understood that my time was important and apologized for wasting it, it wouldn''t be nearly as bad. Instead I feel like the patient they forgot about.
My hair stylist does this to me ALL the time. He makes me wait to see him, then wait in the chair while he goes and shmoozes with other clients in the salon (his family owns the salon). The only reason I put up with it is that he''s amazing and I haven''t been able to find anyone nearly as amazing. Plus he looks like Justin Timberlake and has a cute bootie!
