Some acronyms said aloud annoy me.

Example: Car commercials that say "mpg highway."  Just say miles per gallon or fuel efficiency or something. I hate when they say mpg.

"SMH" is idiotic. I hate that crap.

They do that to save time during the broadcast.  Same reason they say APR real fast during the financing information.  

People over 15 truncating full words in face to face conversation, now that is totes annoying for realz.

I know why they do it. Still hate it.

On airplanes when people get up to let you out but don’t walk any distance away so you have to brush up against them to exit.

I have a friend with big tits. She brushes by people on the plane with her tits just to get a reaction.

Don’t know if this has been mentioned or not, but I see rage every single time when I do a google search for the start time of a sporting event. They never put the time zone of the start time, forcing you to continue searching until you can somehow find that one web site that shows it, or you can triangulate between web sites that seem to cater to the different time zones. Drives me insane.

You don't check the TV listings in your newspaper?

The royal family. Who gives a single solitary fuck about these people, and more incredibly why do people care that they are able to procreate and choose a name for their rugrat, just like the other 7 billion people on earth manage to do. A few more limo crashes wouldnt be the worst thing in the world.

How bad are you fuckers at golf that you get irritated by people having the gall to read greens and actually try to make their puts? Like at what level of suck does your give a fuck level drop to just walking up giving it a whack?

Badass over here. 

Actual, professional golfers routinely get irritated at other pros for taking too long pre-shot or holding up play, and every shot those guys hit is worth potentially thousands of dollars. 

So I think no matter what level you are playing at/with, it's 100% justifiable to get annoyed with someone that acts like they are playing Saturday at the US Open.

It's a game.

I especially like the accompanying graphics that imply Prince Charles sired Harry. Giggity

Yeah, and it’s part of the game as well. I like to get the “Well, we’re waiting” from my partner, that tells me everything I need to know.

Now, if you can’t/don’t keep up with the group in front of you.....rage on my friend.

On my flight just now


Attendant: we need 1 volunteer from rows 4-7 to move to the back for weight balance.


She asked this 4 or 5 times saying the flight isnt moving until someone moves

Finally the pilot had to get on and say it. 1 dude finally got up and received a brooklyn cheer. Hate people.


Fyi I was row 11

If it's a worse seat, I ain't moving.  They'll have to bring cops on and beat my ass.  

why? the difference in seats on a plan is fucking marginal. flying kind of sucks no matter what, so put on your headphones and/or eye pillow mask and try to sleep until you land.

Uh no, it's not marginal at all.  Maybe for the manlets.  Any of us over six feet fucking tall and flying is miserable.  I'm not getting stuck in a middle seat for four hours to JFK.  Or god forbid on an international flight.

6'2" and not a whiny bitch checking in. suck it up.

This is incorrect.

If it were true, move the cows from first class to the back.  See how it goes.

 

No fucking way am i volunteering to sit in a middle seat.  6'2, 240#, I pick the aisle any time I have a choice and the middle is NEVER if I have a choice.

Our man is trying to get paid and I don't blame him.  I'll let the cops whoop my ass for a couple of million bucks.

It was an Express jet...one side had 1 seat and the other had 2. There wasn't a good seat in the house rather than having to get off the plane ASAP which I doubt none had to do

 

 

And it was an hr flight from Louisville to Ohare

This is correct. I'm 6'2 235 lbs with broad shoulders. Aisle seat only for me. I can't fit in the middle or window seats.

Buddy.  No shaming intended, but, for your health, you might consider shedding a few.  I know, I carry too much extra myself, and giving up shit is not in my DNA.

"hey can you take lunch late we're having cake at 2 for so and so's birthday and you're usually still out at lunch then"
2 rolls by
"so and so has to be on a conference call that got rescheduled this morning so cake is going to be a bit late"

still sitting here, not having eaten lunch and not having gotten any cake

Seems rather specific, and non trivial.

 

It WAS trivial. I just hate dealing with people who hate their jobs. They suck the life out of everyone they come in contact with. I've had occasion to call the CA DOI many times over the years and gotten that prick TWICE in probably the last 6 months. Just a sad sack of depressing humanity trying to spread his own misery.

so and so's lunch came while she was on the conference call and so now so and so is eating lunch rather than all of us eating cake.  motherfucker!

So a usual day finds you still at lunch at 2 PM, and that's not considered a late lunch? And currently there's a bunch of you sitting around midday waiting to eat cake, but you cant even accomplish that because the birthday girl is now eating her lunch? What kind of monkeyfuck company do you work for?
