^ Congratulations. You fulfill the tri-fecta of the OP. :kudos:

For most people, it takes a lot of hard work to be that irritating. Some people have a natural gift for being a pain in the ass. When you combine the natural gift for pissing people off with the desire to be a nuisance, you get the asshole that is me.

It's a gift....and a curse.

People who walk straight out of the store and into the parking lot without even considering to look for traffic. They simply assume the parking lot traffic will stop for their oblivious asses.

Parking lot traffic should stop for pedestrians. It's a parking lot. Cars shouldn't be going more than 5mph anywhere in the fucker, and they should stop anytime a person on foot is walking anywhere near them.

I usually agree with this. My pet peeve is when those pedestrians are douche bags. Like when they cross at an angle, so it takes fucking forever for them to get across. Or when they're taking their sweet ass time to cross. I want to throw water balloons at pedestrians some times.

Yeah, that shit is ridiculous. I love when it's raining, I'm carrying two bags of groceries and some adult beverages, and some cockhole acts like he needs to park so desperately that he can't wait for me to cross. I like to just stop and stare. Funny how someone in that big of a hurry all of a sudden is enjoying the view from their side window.

It's a fucking parking lot, not a walking lot. Pedestrians need to stop and watch for traffic unless they're in a crosswalk. Some big store lots have those big-assed safety zones which are in effect a giant crosswalk, which is cool, but it doesn't absolve the pedestrians from using common fucking sense and looking for traffic.

Common sense would also dictate you're in a fucking car, and you should be patient with the people walking out with a cart or their hands full of shit along with their kids.

Can we all agree at least that when the entire row of parking spots is open, and you have no one within 5 spots on either side of you...that that asshat that tries to come ripping into the spot right next to your driver side door as you are getting out of your car (or even better, loading shit into your car) and glares or even gestures at you while you are trying to finish is a complete moron? I have that shit happen to me more often than I can count.

It would also dictate that if you have your hands full and are with your kids, you'd fucking exercise a certain amount of caution when there a 5,000-lb vehicles in motion in the immediate vacinity...

There are both dipshit pedestrians and dipshit drivers...but guess which one wins in a collision? When I'm a pedestrian, I'm very cautious when I step into traffic, because you never know which texting/dailing/eating/drinking/nose-picking/looking-the-other-way-for-an-empty-parking-spot mouth breather is behind the wheel.

I welcome any and all of you who are frustrated with pedestrians and traffic to come to Oregon some time. This place has had sting operations to bust drivers who didn't wait for people at intersections to cross. No stop sign, no cross walk, nothing. Just because the people are at the intersection, the drivers of vehicles are supposed to stop.

I've told a number of people I know out here that if people from Oregon tried this shit in a town like Chicago, then they would be dead or injured in no time flat.
