Kaymyth she/her Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 People who think turn signals are optional, change lanes in front of you four inches from your front bumper, and take their sweet time drifting into your lane, who then flip you off when you honk at them. You almost caused an accident, you idiotic jackchull. And then continue to do exactly the same thing to everyone else as far as the eye can see, dodging back and forth through traffic lanes like a stoned roadrunner.

Great Noodly One, I hate snowbirds. And here in Arizona, just about everyone plays this insufferable game where they'll go 5 miles under the speed limit, notice you're trying to pass them, and speed up just enough to keep you from getting in front of them. Once they've gotten rid of the space you needed to pass them, they slow back down again. And if you get behind them, they'll slow down even more, just to remind you who's boss.

We obviously don't have any snowbirds here, but the entire country has people who do that power trip "you can't pass me" crap. People, I have my cruise control on. I can tell you're changing your speed.

You almost caused an accident, you idiotic jackchull. People who park their car on the sideline of the freeway and then pull back into traffic without a turn signal or accelerating right in front of you, forcing you to hit the breaks as hard as you can.

People, I have my cruise control on. I can tell you're changing your speed. They're not even subtle about it. And why do they do that? Why? If you let me pass you, I'll speed on by. You won't have to look at my bumper for more than a minute. And then there are the people who drive so slowly you put on your turn signal to pass them….only to have them change lanes in front of you at the last possible second. People who park their car on the sideline of the freeway and then pull back into traffic without a turn signal or accelerating right in front of you, forcing you to hit the breaks as hard as you can. Here, we have people who think their hazard lights let them park anywhere. You'll see people who park in a fire lane, put their hazards on, and run into the mall for some shopping. Once I saw a driver parked in a turn lane with their hazards on, texting.
Hood he/him Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I am always for feminism. But I hate it, when it changes its route from "equality between men and women" to "women being more equal". Today, while going through the main road of the town, on a cross section, a lady rammed her scooter into mine. My defence "Ma'am you and I are perpendicular to each other. And the light was green on my side, so why did you drive (i.e. jump the red light ) ?" Her defence "You idiot driver, you should've seen me giving indicator in your direction (totally absurd, she means, I should've paid attention to what's on my left and right, instead of what's in front of me). Now pay a fine. I demand Rs. 500 (a significant amount)" We argued for sometime, and I ended up paying her Rs. 250. Tl;dr --> Woman rams her scooter into mine at traffic lights, even though, it was her clear violation of traffic rules (jumped red light). I offer valid reasoning. She replies with absurd defence and asks me to pay her money. I ended up paying fine for her offence.

Mestiv he/him Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Why did you pay? There was no reason to...
Orlion Blight he/him Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Why did you pay? There was no reason to... Yeah, I am confused as to this point as well...especially since paying for it now indicates that you were in the wrong.I'm also confused as to what this has to do with feminism in any of its forms.
Edgedancer he/him Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Yeah, I am confused as to this point as well...especially since paying for it now indicates that you were in the wrong.

Guest Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 People who don't put wireless phones back on the station. This irritates me to no end. When I hear the phone ring, I want to walk to the hook and FIND IT.
Delightful Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 She had no legal right to demand money as far as I'm aware. And that's not feminism that's just a woman doing the wrong thing/maybe a con artist as Edgedancer said.
Hood he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Yeah, I am confused as to this point as well...especially since paying for it now indicates that you were in the wrong. I'm also confused as to what this has to do with feminism in any of its forms. Thats exactly my point. I was right, but since the lady claimed it was my fault, the police officer didn't even care to listen to my point. I could've argued further with the police officer, but it would be counter productive, as then he would've fined me on any make believe charges. The police here are very corrupt. I said 'feminism' because in.this case people assume directly that women are at disadvantage without even pausing and thinking about the situation.
Mestiv he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 (edited) Oh, you see, you forgot to mention that there was a police officer with you in your previous post Now I kind of understand why you paid just to get over with it. Edited February 9, 2016 by Mestiv
Hood he/him Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 What an amazing weekend it is !!! While tomorrow everyone will be busy celebrating Valentine's day with their loved ones, or Singles Awareness day, depending how you fit in the situation, I will be giving a test at my institute (my classes are at weekends). It's things like these which prevent me from having a romantic life.

Zathoth Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Nonrhythmic banging. Imagine you are half asleep, Imagine you hear a carpenter hammering in a nail, this is already pretty annoying, but as long as he keeps a steady pulse it is pretty ok. But not if he keeps breaking it and hits the nail at random intervals, that drives me crazy.

THE TURN SIGNAL IN THE CAR IS SLIGHTLY IRRHYTHMICDO YOU KNOW HOW FRUSTRATING THIS IS Also, when the turn signal isn't to the beat of whatever music I'm listening to.

And your parents ask you why you're wrinkling your nose. I'm sure it's just me, but it still does irritates. #firstworldproblem #musicianproblem Edited February 16, 2016 by The Young Bard 2
