What are your day to day top annoyances?

People on the roads

People in stores

People at gas stations who block pumps to go shopping inside

People who think they are above everyone else, talk down to others, or think they are entitled to everything

People with no common sense or consideration what so ever

When Turbobuick.com is down again :rolleyes::D
 
Who pays in cash anyway nowadays?

I do! In fact I make it a point to pay in cash just like I make it a point to use a VPN online for most places and stay away from google/facebook. Just because I don't do anything wrong doesn't mean I want *them* knowing my day to day business. Privacy is a right that was once revered. Now peoples lives are an open book and we are meant to just go along with it. That is what annoys me.

I am annoyed that we are loaned currency at interest but they only print the principle. "Re: The Creature from Jeckyll Island" if anyone wants to really know what that means.
I am annoyed that we have to pay rent to a corporation to live in buildings on land that we "own".
I am REALLY annoyed that most people aren't annoyed my these things.

I am also annoyed that someone just read this and thought to themselves this should be in the political forum.

So, you're one of those who considers themselves a sovereign citizen?

I might be wrong and I'm just asking for a simple answer to that specific question, not looking for a debate.
 
Robot calls that, when someone on the other end of the line finally does say something, it's some dot head MF'r calling from the "World Pharmacy" and he's trying to "Help me renew my prescription for Viagra"..........:mad: That's what the internet is for, isn't it?........ :confused:;)

Sales people that walk into my office with no VIN number or information about what they are looking for and ask "Where is that Black 3 Series BMW we sent over here a couple of days ago?"........Because everybody knows there's only one Black 3 Series BMW in the whole, wide world and I'm the just guy who should know where it is. Worse, is when they send valet that's been on the job for 20 minutes with the same lack of info to ask the same question but the poor kid doesn't even know the name of the person who sent him. He just looks at me and says "They just told me to come ask you."

Texting and driving. Worst idea, ever.


Tell them you sent that car to the crusher with a straight face.

I find if I want to text and I hold my phone in my hand, no lights will turn red for me to text.

Gotta be honest here. The idea is all well and good but if you have a smart phone guess what chances are you're being tracked. Do you have an ezpass system for tools? If so you're being tracked. Only 2 ways to tay off the radar either a newborn or dead lol..

Pet peeves: people in a complete rush to go no where. Excessive use of the horn. People with a little bit of knowledge that become dangerous. Micro managing. Ppl posting their business on fb-emotional status to get attn..

No... The term sovereign citizen is an oxymoron.

Pain!!!! I have constant back pain and most of the time knees and ankles and feet hurt. Dr. says "arthritis take these drugs". So, I spend my days in my chair watching tv and checking out TurboBuick.com. The other annoyance is people who say things like " I have pain too but I keep working" or you need to try this or that marvelous cure. They don't realize everybody's pain is different and I've tried working through the pain and I've tried all kinds of "cures" and been to all kinds of doctors. I would be with my Lord right now but, we aren't supposed to do that. Oh, and people who don't put their shopping carts in the corrals when they are done with them. They push a cart full of stuff all around the store but can't push the empty cart a few yards to where they belong!

Same here. I used to be able to get hydrocodone, which worked quite well, but then some f-ing bureaucrat decided I really don't need them. So, another constant gripe on my list is people who think they know what's best for me when they are actually clueless do-gooder morons!
 
We have to jump through all kinds of hoops and fertilizer because some people mis-use pain meds. Like suprize urinallisis. Well I fixed them! I didn't have any urine!
 
The unpredictability of the beloved turbobuick on every outing. Hood up before its parked to look it over. You get use it but a pita same time. Beat on it some more n repeat...i dunno maybe im complaining too much that is nature of the beast....oh also tweaking ur back doing nothing and going on morphine n relaxants for a few days pisses me off
 
Lazy people, people who think everything is owed to them. People who complain why does this happen to me?. People who walk with no purpose and are not handicapped. People who do not own up to their mistakes.
Last but not least DRAMA.

Those commercials make that network TV you want to throw the remote at available, period.

You, since you record, well, you're just not that important to Network TV execs........:D

You probably aren't their "target audience", anyway......

You USED to be, but, just like most of us here, the demographics have changed, and you are but an asterisk in the world of advertising and marketing.

Welcome to adulthood past 50.......

Got any urge incontinence? :D:eek::D:eek::D:eek::D:eek:


BTW, love how you are doing in Kirban's contest, you're one smart TB guy!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess I've never been part of the target audience. I've always hated 99% of commercials ever since I could watch tv. Yes, I am over 50 lol. As for Kirban's contest, a lot of his questions refer to info he has given over the years in his inner circles. I also used Google, and sometimes I just guessed.
 
- You call someone on their cell phone and they don't answer. Then you send them a text message to call you and you get an immediate response and a full blown conversation.

- People that tell you they'll call you right back and never do

- People that drive in the "Exit Only" lane and at the last minute cut across the zebra stripes.

- People that brake on the highway for no apparent reason

- People that enter the EZ Pass only lane expecting to pay....Learn how to read!!!!!!

- People that get into a minor fender bender in the left lane and refuse to move the cars to show in order to show the cop the accident.

- People that put their daily life operations on social media. And if you're with them, they tag you that they're with you alerting thieves that no one is at your home!!!!!

- People need a GPS to go anywhere.

That's it for now

This is a ripe subject. Generally, people are my pet peeve.

These are best read in the voice of comedian Lewis Black.:D


More specifically:

1. People who to to the self checkout and decide that they want try this new-fangled technology out with a full cart and a huge line behind them! And they have no idea how to work the machine!

2. People who write checks at the grocery store. It's 20 F'n 17 for Chissake!

3. People who stand in line while all their stuff is being rung up and then after it's all rung up start to fumble about looking for their checkbook! Really?!?! It's a surprise that you need to give the cashier money? Come on...

4. People who have zero consideration for others. IF you want to drive slow, by all means please help yourself; just get the flock out of my way. I have places to go and things to do. (Same for slow walkers or aisle hogs. Move to the side so others can get around you!~!)

5. Stupid people. This generally covers most people. (especially millennials- don't even get me started down than road)- however, there's a surprising amount of old idiots as well. Makes me wonder how they've managed to get through life for so long.

6. Script readers. You know these people. The ones at the other end of the "customer service line". Can't think outside of the box and can only repeat the script in front of them.

7. Dishonest mechanics- I know some of the stuff is complicated and there's overhead, etc... But it really chaps my ass when I hear these guys quote astronomical prices for stuff that people may not even need. I see lots of folks get reamed and it seems that mechanics could still make money, but not be beating people for every last nickel.

8. People with the Champagne taste and beer budget who want to inquire about whatever you may be selling and then tell you how you should sell it to them cheaper since they can find it cheaper (even though your item may be better)...

9. People who walk their dogs and don't clean up after them

10. People who are cruel to their pets and often their children

11. People who are bad parents to their children (letting them roam around unattended, some throwing tantrums with no correction...)

12. People who are slobs. Whether in their appearance, in their work, or even at home- people are amazingly disgusting sometimes.

13. People who text and drive - I always lay into the horn and scare the crap out of them... :)

14. People who drive and really should never have gotten a license in the first place

15. People in those giant vehicles that they somehow cannot seem to maneuver. Buy a smaller truck dummy or learn how to drive it!

16. People who are contrary as a matter of course (I know a guy who- if I gave him a free sandwich, he'd find a reason to complain about it)

17. People who need to be on facebook all the time. WTF?

18. Speaking to someone and they continue to look at their phone

19. People who are discourteous of others. For example, if you've gotten sweaty, haven't bathed or brushed your teeth please don't get so close. It's nasty. Be mindful. Other people breath the same air.

20. People who are on twitter and whatever new thing is on their phone. Really. No once gives a flock about what you ate for lunch today!

I could go on and on. I may at a later time. I guess this is a good place to start.
Great topic. I could complain for hours!~ :)
