Elevator pet peeves:

1. People who won't let you off the elevator before trying to pile in.

2. People who push the elevator call button that is already pushed as if you didn't push it correctly.

 

[GemStateJim]

I have one and only one pet peeve: forum posters who refer to l00p as 100p. It's an 'l', damnit, not a '1'. Get some glasses!

baby on board sticker.
Am I supposed to stay away? drive slower? Proceed with caution when I am near you? Friggin stupid.

bronco's technique is the way to go. I do the same thing. And I see a lot of semis doing the same thing. I guess they feel no one will jack with them. It creates a smooth flow to traffic, and helps cars merge in an orderly way.
Everyone should adopt this technique.
Bravo bronco!

People that pull into the right lane as they approach a traffic light so that they're not behind another car in the left or middle lane, thereby preventing me from turning right on red. One of these days, I will kill somebody over this.

Props to Bronco - I've pulled off that move myself before.

no, wait.. i got something worse than that...

the guy in front of you in the left unprotected turning lane on a very busy day that doesn't take the opportunity to turn left as the light turns to red and on coming traffic is stopping.

He just sits there, camping out and the light turns red. So, we we have to go through the whole damn thing again as oncoming traffic builds and cues up at the red light.

The unprotected light turns green again, and we wait, going through the whole damn process again!

Ughh.

29th and lamar. you know what i am talking about.

same year as you. Just look.
You will still see them everywhere.

 

[atxbomber]

Ok, I have another one: rediculous. That's not even how it's pronounced, so I have no clue as to why so many write ridiculous that way.

 

[YoLaDu]

redonkulous.

pet peeve: people who say redonkulous.

 

[AustinBat]

There are a hell of a lot of people in Austin who cannot read or do not understand the meaning of "lane ends, merge right (or left). Hint - it doesn't mean you just hug the line of the lane that is ending like you don't have to merge. I'm always tempted to run them off the road or let them run into me, but I don't have time for that. I would like a Mr. Microphone to let them know the error of their ways.

What's the point of driving a Prius on the freeway with energy saving themed bumper stickers if you are going to load that puppy down with a bicycle hanging off the rear end?

 

[TigerPride]

People with pet peeves.

 

[accuratehorn]

Right-handed people-very annoying.

 

[WorsterMan]

people who text while driving... cell phone users are #2

 

[agssuk]

I hate people in HEB that are going to write a check for their purchase, and dont pull their checkbook out of their purse/pocket til the cashier tells them the total. Have the Mot%$# F)*#$@ already made out except for the amount....

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Inconsiderate morons who get into the far left lane of the freeway and drive 5 mph below the speed limit. If you feel more comfortable at 60 than at 65, that's fine - but stay in the right lane with the rest of the slower traffic. If you ever look behind yourself in the left lane and see a stack of cars piled up behind you, you will understand (or should).

[bhobbs]

People that use loose when they mean lose. Teams can not loose a football game but they sure as hell can lose one.

 

[UTDude]

I H A T E all of those FAT-ASSES who ride around the super market in those frickin electric scooters.

Disclaimer: If someone needs one, then I am OK with it.

The problem I have is that it is ALWAYS some white-trash fat-***.

You know that their doctor wants their fat *** to walk around as much as possible.

If they had a medical problem, then their doctor would prescribe one for them.

You also know that they can walk, because the soles of their shoes are usually worn down to the thickness of a slice of bologna.

It also never fails that their shopping cart is filled with nothing but fat food.

I have an idea . . . the grocery store needs to allow these FAT ASSES to use them, but the electric cart needs to be on rails. The rails need to only go through the fruit and vegetable section and then to the cash register.

. . . and mini-vans.

4-Way Stops - you pull up & stop at a 4-Way. At the same time, a person to your left does the same..... forget about who got their first... there's a rule for this, I don't have time to figure out what you think.... AND I DON'T CARE, YOU'RE NOT THAT SPECIAL.

You're to my left -then GO FIRST,

GO.

GET ON WITH IT.

- AND IF I"M TO YOUR LEFT, THEN I GO FIRST

It's called "Yield Right of Way".
