DUMB things that bother you

[dh4645]

I know this is a very DUMB thing, but it bothers me.

my fiance just bought me some foldgers coffee singles so i could take to work. i bring them here and look at the box. there are 19 single serving bags.

WHY 19? There's room for one more to make it an even 20, but no, Foldgers put 19 in there.

WHY?!

what are other dumb things that bother you?

very good

Oh man, all sorts of things bother me and I keep meaning to make a list and write a whole long rant, but it's not actually that important to me.

I hate people who drive slower in the left lane and don't know you're supposed to move to the right. Sometimes I'll flash my high-beams if they don't get the hint, but sometimes I'll just pass on the right.

The self-checkout lanes at stores now should say "20 Items or Less and No Morons." It's supposed to be express, don't go through it if you don't know what you're doing. I was waiting behind an older woman at Super Walmart scanning clothes and then she was like "oh! I got the wrong size!"

Can't think of some others right now, but maybe I'll be back.

Asshats that aren't ready to order when the get to the register after waiting in line for 10 minutes.

[GSUdawg521]

How bout we start talking about the thread topic, it's not a bad one.

I thought of two more.

I'm tired of people using the "Priceless" slogan in their everyday stories or signs at sporting events.

And related to that, I'm tired of the "Got Milk" slogan being used for other things.

having my threads locked

[saygdbye4134]

stores that are open 24/7/365 that have locks on the doors.

why do some coffee makers take different filters that other coffee makers? coffee is universal, why not have the makers be universal too?

women's "time of the month. im not saying it's dumb, it's actually a blessing sometimes, it just bothers me how much it affects the woman.

knee high socks.

why do most cell phone plans start night minutes at 9p.m.? why not 7p.m.?

let's face it, erasable pens dont really erase, get them off the market.

duct tape should be easier to tear.

old poeple either need their own lane, or someone should drive them around. im tired of running late because i get caught behind an old lady that's too scared to drive the speed limit.

that's all for now.

I've got two, but they are somewhat co-terminous:

People, when approching the fuckin tollbooth is is that difficult to have your fuckin change ready to go. And what's up with the jackoff's that can't roll down their window to pay the toll, they need to open their door.

People, when approching the ATM machine (TYME machine for people in Wisconsin ) have your shit ready to go. You making a deposit, check's signed and envelope's sealed, ya dig........Arrgggg now I'm pissed.

[DixieChixen]

At annoys me when people say "ATM Machine" because it's redundant since ATM already means Automatic Teller Machine.


...sorry.

[j_jgarcia]

Uggggh and those fucking sunglasses the 23 yo female crowd thinks is soooo fucking sheik. New flash, you look like a fuckin putz.....

This bugs me more than anything that has been invented in the past 20 years. The damn machine tells you, step by step, what to do and people still can't figure it out.

I thought about that, but there could be an emergency where they need to leave. Like what if there's a national crisis or disaster and they have to abandon the store for a while?

Totally agree! They never fully erase.

duct tape should be easier to tear.
If it tore easier, I would have lost my life a long time ago. Duct tape is the greatest invention ever. Ever.

old poeple either need their own lane, or someone should drive them around. im tired of running late because i get caught behind an old lady that's too scared to drive the speed limit.
Old people and buses. There are these buses that are from Ohio that come up here for the Soaring Eagle Casino. They ALWAYS drive in the left lane. Hmph.

that's all for now.

[onemoredrink41]

Yes! But I found a good solution... there are "bun size" hot dogs that are longer and they come in a pack of 8.

I've only seen a 7-11 once I think

But let's say there was a 7-11 in New Orleans. I'll bet they'd leave and lock up (even if it wouldn't matter the next morning )
