Your irrational pet peeves

You will notice that at the right edge of the frame there is another Porsche Panamera parked exactly the same.

This is the Woodland Hills Whole Foods parking lot. These 'compact' spots are usually full of Lincoln Navigators and Range Rovers.

I'm sure my neighbors have an IPP about me using the snowblower at 5:30 am.

I also don't give a damn.

A-ooooooooga!

As long as you know that you're a horrible person

At least he has tolerance for all religions.

He's intolerant of common courtesy

Wow, how did I miss this love fest before?

Bros, let's keep this confined to the thread it belongs in, mmmmmk?

The lack of tasteful or understated digital watches. I decided I wanted to buy a digital watch, and I didn't want something that was garish, chunky, enormous, covered with lettering, or otherwise looked like the ignition key for a giant robot in a Japanese cartoon. I found that my criteria eliminated something like 99% of the digital watches currently on sale. I eventually ended up ordering one of these:

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It's not bad, but I still wish it were a little bit smaller.

Signed up to be registrar for my kids youth soccer league. Huge mistake for someone who's employed, but anyway....

Working my butt off this time of year in addition to my full time actual paying job

Needed to make a motion to the rest of the board, did not get enough votes to pass or fail. Sent a reminder about it. Some board member in a position that does nothing in the off season responded with a 'yes' vote and said "sorry, I've been very busy."

Too busy to hit reply, type 3 letters and hit send in gmail while I am registering 400 children?????

Some of us arent in that big of a hurry, I have no problem with people doing the limit.

Generally I agree but PA roads have sstupid low speed limits. 79 is 55 MPH. Really?

Legit irrational for a change

People who take the trouble to make a power point then present it in edit mode.

[dodint]

Yes!

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

Or people that just read off of PowerPoint slides instead of summarizing on the slide and saying more

The tendency of people from Western PA to end a phonecall with "mmmmbye"

[PensFanInDC]

Thats a western PA thing?

People that shovel their driveway like four times during a snowfall of six inches or something. I mean, I can understand (maybe) if we are talking like a 2-3 foot blizzard, but it's six **** inches. You really think shoveling every new inch that falls in your driveway is easier than just doing it all at once? Get a life.

Not everyone has a great back. When you have back issues shoveling 2 inches of show three times is A LOT easier than shoveling 6 inches of show once.

There are few things I encounter in my professional life that annoy me more than bad presentation skills.

Add to this: People who email the full PPT file instead of printing to a pdf. Depending on the preso, you could be talking about a 60-70 mb file, vs a 700k pdf.

The couple inches of wet snow we got last week that was right after rain was freakin' heavy.

unless they're the people in charge and/or actually doing the work that drives the company. in which case, listen to them.

Perhaps I have never noticed the "mmmbye" thing, but this is news to me.

To your first point, I was working on the assumption that these are people that work for LITT or are down the ladder.

To your second point, I was working on the assumption that LITT works for a huge corporation wherein no one person can "drive the company" because of what they do.

i think you're correct on both points.

[Letang Is The Truth]

Correct all around

I never heard it either, at least with people I talk to.
