Things that irk you......

Fuck

That

 

Because I am a slow learner, I have finally come to the realization that people are much more likely to irk me than things.

 

Didn't irk me, but annoyed me, then amused me.
At our favorite taco stand, they have one of those touch-screen soda fountains. (Sidebar: half the fun of going there is to watch people try to figure out how to use it).
I'm waiting behind a teenager at the machine. He's punching things on the touch screen until he finally figures out how to change the language from English to Spanish. Then he gets a regular Coke.
At least I found out I could get Diet Coke in Spanish.

 

People who are too quick to lay on the horn.

Someone was at least 50 feet behind me today on a pretty wide open freeway and tapped her horn when I didn't use a blinker to change lanes.

Minutes later, another driver I was next to at an intersection layed on the horn excessively when someone turning in front of us ran a yellow and blocked the box for a second or two after our light turned green.

Chill, people.

 

People who don’t use their signal.

 

I typically do. Not every time. No one does every time.

 

In traffic? I beg to differ.

 

You’ve never been to Maryland, I presume.

I got sent to the office in 11th grade for disagreeing with a teacher who said something that was in the book.

So did the guy who wrote on the chalkboard: "Name a wood that doesn't float."
You went to school with Robert Wagner?



Most unappreciated comment on this thread. Wow.

 

Don’t drive internationally. You would hate it.

 

I enjoyed that comment. But Wagner is a lot older than me.

 

I played chicken with someone in Italy. Neither of us backed down as we approached each other at full speed with a narrow passage ahead.

Could have been a head on collision. I’m still surprised we didn’t shear each other’s side view mirrors off.

I was also surprised my gf wasn’t screaming like crazy - she, for once, must not have been paying attention. I think she was reading some travel thing.

Glad I didn’t say “Watch this!”
