There are left lane cruisers, then there are the left lane cruisers who get mad when you try to pass on the right. How about go fuck yourselves?

So say there's 3 lanes, and I'm passing a bunch of nerds. I'm in the left lane. I pass that guy and then that guy and then that guy - there's a whole train of slower cars in the right. And that's saying a lot, because I'm not the speedy speedster I used to be. But I'm going maybe 70 in a 65. All the traffic on the right is going maybe 65. Then you get the ding-dong who wants to go 80. "Look, I'll get over when I can and let you by, but I'm not cutting off any of these trucks just so you can announce to the world that your dick doesn't fit in your pants." Calm down. Ha - then he sees there's a spot in the right lane, so he zips over 2 lanes to pass a truck on the right, and tries to zip back over to get in ahead of me. He's wicked pissed that he didn't get ahead of me.

You’re actually passing…most people get that (the 80 isn’t enough crowd notwithstanding). It’s the asshats who get over and the proceed to drive the same speed as the center lane that need a garretting.

For the last 12 years my morning commute has been between 230am-330-am. Especially on Saturday and Sunday mornings there's a lot of drunks on the road. They're easy to spot, they go slow, speed up, slow down again, straddle the center lane. I fuck with them, I get right behind them and turn on my brights and just follow them. You can tell they're shitting their pants, most of them eventually turn onto another street after a while. I look back in the rear view and they get back on the main road. Guilty. Another time I was driving alongside of a car full of teenage to 20 something girls and their headlights were off. I tried honking and waving to get their attention but they just flipped me off, probably thought I was hitting on them. Two blocks later they ended up getting pulled over. I hope they weren't drunk.

Likewise, people who do pick it up but then walk up my driveway and bury it in the bottom of my trash can. I have a separate outdoor metal can for dog poop Karen, I don’t put it in my regular trash…and I sure as fuck don’t want yours :shake:

When i was working overseas, i made the mistake of leaving my trash can out (i did leave on trash day). Still had to walk a good 10 feet up my driveway.
For 6 months this lady dropped her dogs poo in my can like it's normal.
I had half a mind to follow her one day and leave it all on her lawn.

Last week was bulk trash week. Every week when we put it out scavengers come by and comb through it to pick out anything they may be able to use which is perfectly OK with me, in fact it makes me happy that people can use stuff I throw away. My neighbor isn't as understanding. Last week he decided to get rid of his old garage stereo which works like new but before he put it out he smashed it to pieces with a sledge hammer so the scavengers couldn't use it. I don't understand that kind of mentality.

That’s too bad. I always try to find homes for things like that. Usually putting it out by the road with free works for things that Goodwill won’t take.

Same here, I always try to re-home anything that I don't need anymore but is still useful. Also my Aldi boxes and any other box goes to the curb because people pick those up and recycle them for money.

So tired of everyone needing a review. Buy a bag of screws at HD and they want a review. Buy some dog poo bags and the pet shop wants a review. Get a haircut please review us. I must get 5 review calls, texts or emails a week if not more. Sometimes multiple requests from the same place via different medias.

Believe me it’s all good. If it isn’t you’ll know.

Yup. And tips. I could rant about tip culture for days. Like why the fuck would I be tipping when I'm picking up the food? They should be tipping me for doing the delivery.

I understand it to a degree in some industries.. but I don't want to be paying the wage your employer should be paying you for letting me scan my debit card at the register. I know it isn't the worker's fault. Sucks that they have to deal with it. I generally tip out of guilt if I'm somewhere that I can even slightly justify it, but it's getting out of hand.

And kind of on the same note... there is a "service fee" when I pay my water bill online. For fucking what? I did it myself. I paid the bill. Fuck your service fee.

But you could win a gift card.

Reminds me of the bill burr joke about the stores asking if you're a member. You don't need my phone number. You're up to something.

yeah, the dreaded convenience fee, for who's fucking convenience? I'm the one doing all the work, clicking all the buttons and filling everything out. All you are doing is collecting the money, and it seems the worst folks for this is the govt, paying the water bill when I used to have one. Fuck you guys.
