HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Wow I skimmed this quickly after reading about tifosi's terrible misfortune above and thought you quoted his post and thought you had taken a quite evil turn of personality

Driving when the lady in front of you is looking all around for her makeup and causes you to get a light because she's too worried about her appearance.

Probably already mentioned, but that really grinds my gears!

I don't mind that she's worried about her appearance. I mind terribly that she's choosing her commute to address the situation.

About five or six months ago - on the same morning commute - I was nearly hit by two different women in mid-mascara application.

in those situations, i always say, "you still look terrible" out loud.

...it's normal to have pretend conversations with people who can't hear you, right?

Me, myself, and I have gotten into some great conversations. Me and I are great buddies, who always tease myself about making stupid comments... He's such an idiot

I'm sure it's annoying to be a girl and get ready am hour before you have to leave in the morning, but my goodness have some respect for other people when you're operating a motor vehicle while putting your face on

The whole "definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results" crap.
Folks that is not the definition of the word insanity. Looking at it a different way, you could say someone that keeps persevering despite not having success is behaving with a commitment to continuous improvement. Someone was trying to be clever and it is becoming gospel.

This one really bothers me.

People who you obviously let merge in front of you at the Fort Pitt Tunnel during rush hour that don't give a “thank you" wave.

For the most part I too have cut out soda but once every few weeks I do crave a coke with my dinner, especially if it's burgers or pizza, so I will indulge myself and have 1 can.
