Also, you can usually swipe your card and enter your PIN as soon as the clerk swipes your first item. Don't wait for the total before you out your wallet or purse to find your card.

You could swipe your card early, but what if you feel there is a discrepancy with the price of an item? If you swipe your card early you wouldn't be able to hold up the whole line because you can't tell which item is on sale.
 
People getting on airplanes who throw their luggage into the overhead compartment with the handle out - when it will obviously fit just fine if you turned it - and by doing so you would leave enough room for another person's carry on item.

In this same vein, I absolute can NOT stand the people who decide to play their damn scratch off lottery tickets right there at the register in the morning while I'm trying to buy my coffee. Just because you don't have **** else to do in the morning doesn't mean you should hold up everyone else on their way to work... /rant

Or people that put their small bag (purse, backpack) or coats in the overhead, besides their regular carry on. Stow that **** under the seat, *** hole! Those people are the reason why there is not enough overhead room in planes.

My bigger carry on isn't a roller bag so it's got soft sides. When I see a situation like that I'll cram my bag in around/ over their stuff. Other good thing about a soft bag like that is I can make it fit in spots most roller cases wouldn't have a shot at.

I've used the brute force method to reorganize overhead bins this way.
 
-traffic jam when you're already late
-no smoking signs on your cigarette break
-10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
-meeting a man of my dreams, then meeting his beautiful wife

Glad you realize these things are annoying and not ironic.

The 10,000 spoons thing is actually kind of serious. Who the **** has 10,000 spoons? That's some serious hording.
 
People who smack me for chewing with my mouth open. I have sinus problems.

Until he had his jaw surgically rebuilt, one of my sons was not physically capable of closing his lips and chewing. They couldn't do the surgery until he was mostly done growing, so he was 19 when they finally fixed it. I find it annoying too, but sometimes there's a reason. :)
 
I have to agree with 98% of what I read here

No turning on headlights during daytime or even dusk while you drive white car and there is a white-out blizzard, or a silver car with heavy fog...these people are dipsh#ts

No turn signals ....It's found on the steering column. going 85 mph on I-80, floating between lanes w/out signaling? ~you're a dumba@s

Phrases: "I got this...." damn straight..."word" etc

Scratch tickets in the AM or lunch at the convenience counter. What is wrong with 10am? Please indulge yourselves when I'm not behind you, trying to get back to work and pay taxes to subsidize your arse

90-yr olds at the PHARMACY counter during a weekday lunch hour..... umm what is wrong with 10AM? 2PM?
~ please get the hell out of my way. I have an 1/2-1 hr lunch.....you have all day

Retired people---clogging the roads at lunchtime. clogging the grocery store aisles from 11:30-1pm weekdays
umm what is wrong with 10AM? 2PM?
~ please get the hell out of my way. I have an 1/2-1 hr lunch.....you have all day. I'm trying to pay for your social security

Drivers who do not understand a 4-way stop

21-yr old hoodrat girls with a cigarette in one hand--and talking on cell ph in another. While they're driving behind me. It's a ticking timebomb

Throwing cigarette butts--sometimes lit, out your car window. please...quit being a *******

Recycling? I lived in Colorado in the 90's learned early on. quit being a lazy *** and separate your paper/glass/metals in your garage or storage. I can't believe the sh#t people throw away and clog the landfills
 
Someone earlier mentioned shopping carts...

HyVee has the two type of carts now...the half sized carts and the full carts. Common sense/logic would say place the one type of cart on one side of the corral, and the other type on the other side. Nope! It takes just one person to start the jumble.

This is truly petty since I don't have to deal with the mess, but it still bugs me.
 
Current annoyance. All the posts on social media from my friends still at ISU celebrating VEISHEA. Thanks for trying to include me in your festivities, but it just annoys me because I can't skip out on work and join you.
 
* Grammatical and spelling errors
* "toppers" - you say something and this person just has a story that tops it (never really even hears your comments/story)
* St. Louis Cardinals and Pittburgh Steelers fans - I am good friends with some and they're just fine. Most of the rest are arrogant, entitled, self absorbed. Worse than most Hawk fans I know.
* Litterers
* Cell phone drivers
* Cats
* Most of the music my two young daughters listen to

And yes, get off my lawn
 
Checks - WHO still writes checks?

Our neighbor either does not believe in or does not understand how to use trash bags. He throws his loose trash into the receptacle, it's always windy in Iowa, the lid blows open and I am constantly picking up his garbage from my yard and landscaping. Even if he comes home and sees his crap all over the yard, he never comes and picks it up.

People who put up fencing but fail to maintain the grass on the outside. When the fence is not on the property line it's the responsibility of the fence owner to take care of the grass on each side.

I have no problems with barking dogs, but when they do it for hours and the owner who is home just ignores it. Especially late at night or early mornings. I always feel bad for those that work nights and have to sleep days and have a dog in the neighborhood that never shuts up.
 
When you are out in public and a child is acting up (that is not the annoying part) and the parent says over and over, one.....two.....

The behaviors never change and three never comes.
