Person at traffic light, single lane.
Light turns green.
They kinda turn their wheels and continue to take the selfie they were busy with.
*******s, *******s everywhere./

Two things this morning: The dude that sat on top of me on the train and myself for not having the balls to say anything...

Jirre, just got back from the movies and this *****ing family behind me just wouldnt shut up, also taking a call in the middle of the movie, not whispering but rather talking.
They also came in late and started up their flash lights on the phones to walk up the steps.
The freaking cheek people have...
Would any of you have turned around and told them to shut the hell up? I was too scared to just in case the brother/father (but realised at the end there wasnt, only females) would klap me.

It's not your job to police them or put yourself into a situation of conflict...
I would have gone out and found a manager and complained to them.
Then after the movie I would have asked for a replacement ticket to see the movie again uninterrupted.

Maybe he was squashing your nads so you couldn't say anything....

Two lanes at a traffic light and only after light turns green does schmuk in right lane indicate he is turning right.

Happens to me all the time at one particular light in my suburb... I dunno why the heck people wait to turn on their turn signal! :mad:

Agreed. Also companies that want 5 years of experience for Junior Developers. No way in hell is that possible.

Ppl that approach intersections at top speed and then start edging their way over the line while you drive through... Mostly taxis that do this.. :/

And I know this has been mentioned numerous times ... But my biggest irritation is being treated like the local video store by colleagues at work. Do it once, and they will be on your case every few days looking for this or that..

Friends that keep abusing my generosity with a promise of "I'll get it next time" and then they never do, coz they assume you have more money than them and can afford to do it over and over again..

I know that's the normal sentiment in these cases, but I really enjoy hanging out with these ppl and do consider them to be good friends... Just irritates me that they don't see this as a problem.. I suppose I should either talk to them about it or shut up.

In this open office of ours, I can add another one ...

The flippen speaker phone ... Fat conversations over the speaker phone or even worse, the guys here dial a number on speaker phone and let it just ring. Surely after the 10th ring no one is one the other friggen side! But no ..... let's just let it ring while we surf the blooming net for the next 10 mins ....
