Pet peeves

Back half being empty. Front half is full.

 

I confuse the store and Big Brother by buying things I don't want or need. Gotta stay a step ahead, dammit!

 

People who can't be bothered to walk an extra 20 feet to put their shopping cart in the corral.
Every time I see someone do this I want to grab the cart, back up about 20 feet, and send it rolling toward their car door to prove a point. Sometimes I just grab it and shoot them a death glare while passive-agressively putting it in the corral myself.

 

I am with you on that. Main reason I am not quite 100 percent against the death penalty.

 

My usual weekly grocery bill hasn't really gone up in the last 7-8 years. At least not notably. Now that I think about it, it is a little surprising. But yeah, we save roughly $8-10 every week, too. With little or no side effects. Then again, we don't shop at the expensive joints.

 

Answering a phone call and hearing the words, "please hold for..." Click. You initiated this call, either state who you are and what your business is right off the bat or fuck off.

 

Jaywalkers, especially those who dawdle across a major highway taking their sweet damn time.

 

With kids in tow. ...

In the dark. ...

With a freakin' crosswalk 20 feet away.

 

With all these cameras and console screens in cars now, there should be an app that takes that jaywalker video and says to you "twenty points!"

Putting the cart away for him - that'll teach him.

I'm trying to shame him for next time. Not the best solution, but the hope is they'll see it and think to themselves, "Yeah, I guess I should've moved it."
The asshole that left it there obviously isn't going to put it away once they're in the car and it's still a danger to myself or the next person, so I don't want to leave it there. Short of ramming it into his car or getting into a screaming match or fistfight with the guy, what other options are there?
