Things That are No Big Deal But Still Bug the Crap Out of Me

[Anonymous]

I think you people have way too much time on your hands. You could be run over by a train (or whatever) tomorrow. Do you understand that life is short and you need a clue? No really? It is as if you look for things to complain about. No wonder so many people here are/should be on meds. Stop looking for things to complain about. You might just become less miserable.

+1 Axtually, any evidence of cigarette butts, smoking, etc really bugs me. I once asked a man not to sit next to me on the train because I could smell cigarette smoke (faintly) on his clothing. I lied and told him I had allergies.

You're a jerk. Why not hire a chauffeur?

Strong reaction.

I know, bad right!

But FWIW I offered to move instead of him and there were other available seats on the train.

I agree, they smell horrible. I've never asked one to move, though - I usually just get up and move myself. I don't know how they can't smell it themselves.

Why not post, "Ok. Good that you have accepted your life."

Oh, and when they hand you change on top of bills. Drives me BANANAS.

This...it drives my crazy. I know I shouldn't be so petty with my petty change. But I am. Why do they do that? It is so awkward for the customer. When I worked retail, I was taught to give the dollars back first, let them take the dollars, and then give them change, counting it out loud. This seems like a more recent trend.

People who leave five feet between themselves and the person ordering at Starbucks. It's not a pharmacy, it's not an ATM -- there is nothing private about your coffee order. Move ahead so the people in the line snaking out the door can come inside.

People who double park or park in emergency zones because (presumable) they'll be "just a minute" while they run into Starbucks.

People that stand in doorways. Also, when in a crowded space and someone backs up without even looking.

Same here, except DH puts dirty clothes ON TOP of the hamper. Would it kill you to take the lid off, place clothes in the hamper then close it again???

5 feet is a too much, but I hate when people are all up on me and breathing down my neck as I wait in line at Starbucks or the grocery store.
