People that aren't sports fans that use the "word" 'sportsball' when talking about any sport. I get it, you don't like sports, but I know you know the name of the sport so stop talking like a douchebag 5 year old with your phrasing and not witty jabs and talk like an adult.

I've heard people bashing sports in douche-tasting ways, usually gamers or musicians. I'll admit, listening to grown men talking shit about "dominating" in their fantasy football league is annoying as fuck. However, I never do anything other than say that I don't play. I'm sorry that asshole jocks picked on you in high school. I'm sorry you'll never fuck above a 4.5. STFU and go talk about vaping or something,

Starting to get really annoyed with the Post Office when it comes to actually receiving important mail at our home we moved into back in May. I'm now at 3 important packages that haven't been delivered because they were returned as "address undeliverable." We get personal mail (cards, postcards, etc) and junk mail just fine, but the important packages like my wife's 1st paycheck, my new company admission passes, and now a new credit card (finally getting the chip and pin kind) have all managed to be returned despite having the correct address. Hey USPS, make up your damn mind! Does our address exist or not?

There's a special spot in hell for assholes that use turning lanes and striped medians (especially on curves) to pass.

I get irritated with all the people who refuse to make a right turn when there is an obvious lane to turn into and then merge into existing traffic. It as if the traffic planners go to all the trouble to create a new lane for you in order to alleviate traffic concerns, but buffoons lack ability to be observant and move along.

Certain things reveal the abject stupidity of the majority of the population. Merges are a category of those things.

People who have no control of their dogs. I walk my dog 2-3 times a day and get tired of the other dogs that come out after him after awhile. Then the owners just stand there and call their dog and say oh their friendly. Yeah so is my dog, but he has been attacked while on his leash in the past and hates when a dog comes at him when he is on it. So if he rips your dogs face off or I let him off to defend himself, don't blame me or my dog.

It's all the delivery services. I've had imbecilic failures from FedEx, UPS, and the USPS. It's like Russian Roulette when I order anything online whether it's going to make it to my door unscathed, or not. Something in the drinking water, maybe? There seems to be a plague of careless stupidity that is pervasive.

We have most things sent to my office. Too many times, UPS or FedEx or whoever (I'm not trying to call any one particular company out on this - they all seem bad) just drops the package at the door and leaves. No knock. No doorbell. What if that's something expensive? One time, when our son was young (~18 months) he was standing in the door looking out. My wife would check on him now and then, and one time she saw the delivery guy walking away from the house - he had just dropped something off and didn't bother to say anything to anyone.

Another time, my wife ordered some junk online and had it delivered to the house, and it never got there. Whoever she ordered it from never got it returned. She went to the post office, and they had it as "delivered". She got her money back (whatever she ordered had been discontinued, so she couldn't ask for another), but we were really confused about what happened. 6 months later, some lady claiming to live 3 streets over, with the same house number said she had gotten this pile of stuff for us, and was delivering it. 6 months later. Maybe "pile" isn't the right word. It was whatever my wife ordered, plus some junk mail. But this lady had stuff to deliver to other houses, too. So.. yeah.. have it delivered here and I'll bring it home. Of course, that opens the questions from co-workers: "why are you getting catalogues for Ralph Lauren?"

Speaking of that kind of issue, my mother-in-law wrote the address wrong for a package she sent via UPS. However, the address is one that not only doesn't currently exist, but won't ever exist (our number is 1259, she wrote 1250) as it would be across the street in a drainage basin with all the mailboxes where the driveway would be. Somehow UPS had it marked as "delivered" in their system, and when she and my wife's aunt (who gets her way 99% of the time) tried to dig into the issue and get them to try and figure out where it got delivered they kept stonewalling, hanging up, etc. I think she got her money back from where she ordered whatever it was from, but that still annoys me when I think about it.

That's what you get for letting your mother-in-law find out where you live. :lol:

The little fuckers that broke into my house and stole my PS4, PS3, .22 Rifle and 20Ga. Pump shotgun while I was away for Thanksgiving. Tons of more expesive electronics they could take, but only those 4 things gone.

File police report, call all the pawn shops and GameStops in your area. Guarantee they'll try to trade or sell the PS3 for PS4 games.
