Sure I can always go back to the front of the store & grab another cart am usually too lazy to walk back up where the carts are located.
Lol.

I would say 80-85% of the time this happens to me at Walmart.
Rarely at Target.

That's because Target is high end.

80-85% of carts at Walmart do this.

The A holes at Costco that will run you over with their cart if you take more than 10 seconds to decide if you want a product.

Just pull over to the side rather than being an A hole by stopping in the middle and blocking anyone else from going by

Are you reading Batman comics? Or do you actually know people in real life who talk like this?

On weeknights with DH i sometimes start eating without him (which I know is rude) b/c it’s so annoying to wait 10 min’s for him to come to the kitchen/dining room and do 3 other tasks before finally plating his food.

I tell my husband "dinner will be ready in 15 minutes." He will go outside or to the garage to tinker around. But then 15 minutes pass and he doesn't come in. So I have to go find him. When I ask why he didn't come in, he says" I didn't know dinner was ready, you didn't tell me."

One of my big pet peeves is having to spell things out for people when I shouldn't have to.

A friend was making breakfast for us - scrambled eggs and toast. She insisted that toast tastes much better cooked in the frying pan instead of the toaster.

So she cooked the eggs and set them on a plate, then spent 5-6 minutes toasting bread in the frying pan while the eggs got cold.

When she served the cold eggs and pan-friend toast, I could only respond with gratitude, but inside I was seething.

So glad I found this post to vent about this breakfast transgression.

That is not irrational at all. The is completely valid. Cold eggs are disgusting.

Agreed. this is not irrational.

Well, you don’t have any right to go faster than the speed limit.

People who use the words: curated or gifted.

What’s wrong with curated and gifted?

(Disclosure: I was in the gifted and talented program in school).

It's heartening to know I'm not alone in this problem! My DH does the same thing with disappearing right as I'm setting dinner on
the table. I think it's some kind of deep-rooted passive-aggressive move, TBH.

How can you tell a person dinner is going to be ready in 5 minutes, they acknowledge that, and then go do something that takes them out of earshot so you have to go find them?

The other thing mine does is we are getting ready to go out somewhere. He will stand poised by the entryway, keys in hand, and say, "Are you ready? I grab my purse and head for the door. Before I get there, he will turn and go back into the house - to his office, to the bathroom, etc. I now sit down on the couch, in my coat and purse in hand, and wait a good few minutes before he comes back and says again, "Ready to go?" Almost every. single. time.

yes, someone please explain this. My husband says, "you can wait in the car if you want" Yes, I want to be sitting in the car at 20 below, waiting for you to pee one last time.

People often use gentleman if they are talking about an African American. I’ve noticed this too. If they are mugged by a white man they say “a guy robbed my parents shop” or dude, man,

People saying tuna fish. Has anyone ever confused just tuna?

People saying price point. Again, the heck is wrong with just price? Do we really need the point? Does it change anything?

Anyone who litters.
