[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 258220, member: 7083"] 1) Cell phones and texting. Cell phones while driving - every time someone cuts me off, I look over to see the person on their phone, completely unaware that they nearly side-swiped me. Talking on the cell phone in very public places. And the worst - people answering their cellphone while you're talking to them. No, "I have to take this call"; just answer the phone while you're mid-sentence. Texting. That one will send me over the edge. What can you possible have to talk about every minute of every day? I have told easy child that I don't care if he pays for his phone, I will take it away if he's texting while I'm talking to him. Oh, and it's not, "Who are you texting with?". It's, "Who are you texting?" Like I care. 2) Sites like Twitter. I really have no interest in knowing what *anyone* is doing every minute of everyday. 3) Narccissisim. See Texting and Twitter above. 4) Insensitive dog owners. I'm *really* getting tired of my neighbors two large Airedales jumping all over me when I go to take my dog out. They've snagged my wool sweater beyond repair, scratched my neck and knocked me over. I don't know the owners, but I know the dogs' names and can tell them apart. That's because I hear them being called - repeatedly - every. single. day. Invest in a fence. Or a tie out for when they're outside. Or even come get your dogs when they're jumping all over me instead of going back inside your house. :angry: 5) "Reality" shows 6) Greed 7) People talking so freely about their...ummm...private lives. I really don't need the details. Or the visual. Really. 8) Having my personal space invaded. Arms length, people. 9) Ostrich parents - get your head out of the sand and help your kid. 10) Car trouble 11) Class-Action lawsuits. Granted, some are warranted. But, I really don't care that Kia accidentally misstated the horsepower for my car. Who buys a Kia for the horsepower anyway? Huge waste of the court's time. Also, see #6. I'll stop here. :D [/QUOTE]
