Little Things That Irratonally Piss You Off (247 Version)

  • People that drive sports cars slower the posted speed limit and must come to a complete stop before turning, regardless of the presence( or lack thereof) of a stop sign. Your car was intended to be driven fast and to take corners quickly. Get your head out of your ass, put your foot on the gas and drive.

  • I can't stand drivers who end up in a turn only lane that is pretty fast-moving but decide that's not where they need to be and will camp out diagonally trying to move over to a backed-up lane and completely block the turn lane. It's not the end of the world if you turn and go around the block to get where you need to go. They would rather hold up dozens of people. This happens regularly on 395 heading into Baltimore and it really causes road rage for me.

  • People who walk insanely slow around the gym. Some walkways are narrow because of all the machines, and I am really too impatient to walk behind these slow pokes. Actually, this is pretty much true for anywhere. I don't walk slow in the mall either. I always walk with a purpose. Get out of my way.

  • When people walk in front of someone trying to take a picture. I'm trying to stalk RedandWhite here damnit!

  • The people that piss me off most are the people who walk so god damn close behind me trying to rush me, I'll walk at the pace I want to asshole. Especially when I've just worked out at the gym, I'm not gonna want to risk an injury by rushing my way through the aisle if I've just done a strenuous work-out.

    People get 3 seconds to snap a picture. If they take any longer than that, they're getting a blurry shot of my profile.

  • first little league baseball game of the season, so I'll add: little league baseball players that think it is ok to do chants/cheers when their team is batting. One of the best parts about baseball is not having to hear cheerleaders.

  • If you don't have an EZ pass, get the F out of the EZ pass only lane BEFORE YOU GET TO THE TOLL PLAZA. There wouldn't be so much traffic at the tolls on 95 if people did this.

    This is kind of stupid. They are what 10 11 12 years old? If they want to do cheers or whatever why does it matter to you? They'll grow out of it like the rest of us all did.

  • These McDonald's commercials for 20 piece McNuggets for $4.99 for a limited time. It's $1 to get 4 on the value meal, so it's not a frickin' bargain.

    Similarly, Burger King has the single/double/triple stacker for $1/$2/$3. You get more cheese and roll for the same price if you buy multiple singles rather than a double or triple

    Actually, most McDonald's I go to no longer have the 4 pc on the $1 menu and that started about a year ago.

    Really? I don't think I've encountered one where it isn't on the dollar menu

  • I can't f**king stand douches who walk around and do sh** when they're brushing their teeth. My roommate is chilling in our room occasionally leaving the brush in his mouth to do something and than continuing brushing for a little just to stop again. Do that ish in the bathroom because you need to spit every once in a while. This annoys the shit out of me.

    To go along with this people who pace the room, the hallway, the office etc while on the phone. The kid across the hall from me will call his mom and just walk up and down the hallway and into my room while on the phone. Just sit somewhere dude.

  • Pretty much everything my roommate does. He's a great guy, really nice, but he does some annoying things.

    -Last semester when he was sick, he would hock loogies into my trashcan every ten minutes or so. I wanted to throw up and punch him at the same time.

    - I get back from class at noon, and he's still in bed. Stop being lazy.

    - Comes back on monday and tuesday nights stoned beyond belief. Probably leads to the above.

    -Went an entire week last semester without showering

    -Last, but not least, I gave him 20 bucks when he was going with someone on a liquor run to buy me a handle of vodka (most alcohol for my money). Instead, he thinks he'll do me a favor by throwing in 15 of his own dollars and buying a fifth of jamison for the two of us, so we can drink something "classy." Its as if he thought we were going to kick back on weeknights with a glass of it and sip it while discussing sophisticated topics.Regardless, he proceeded to drink 3/4ths of it on one friday night when I was out and got trashed. I swear I wanted to kill him.

  • You could have just said "thinks drinking jamison makes you classy"

    Or "says classy"

    why does this piss you off??

    Isn't this supposed to be things that irrationally piss me off? Am I supposed to have a reason? But if there was, i'd suppose itd be because he got a 0.2 GPA his first semester and his lack of motivation disgusts me.
