Re: Things that tick you off!

The dropkick that lives next door to me. He feels it is important to warm up his Ninja road bike for 10-12mins every morning at 5am. Big bore exhaust and all. Then proceeds to stall it 2-3 times on his way out.

Seriously my 7 year old has better clutch control than this knob jockey..

Maybe we have to drop the pipes off your coupe some time and "warm it up" one night when you know he has to get up at 5am the next day?

HR personnel that think they are so much better that everyone else and can't be bothered to answer their phone, e-mails or return calls.
When really they are just oxygen thieves.

Insurance companies!!!!
Recently got hail damage on my second car, put a claim in, the insurer tells me that they won't fix it, rather give me the money to fix it. WTF? They tell me that as they gurantee repairs for life, because my car has had previous repairs that they won't touch it. Doesn't sound so bad right? Other than the inconvenience, they tell me that I will not have any insurance until I do the repairs and take it back for an inspection. Bloody hell!! I have all my policies with this mob and thought I was getting a good discount. After doing new quotes over the internet......I'm being ripped-off at least 800 bucks a year, damn. Rant over.

Re: Things that tick you off!

Just dropping in to get a coffee before work... stand in line behind a woman who gets asked for her order. She then makes a phone call and speaks to someone from her office for five minutes calling out office orders, changing her mind numerous times, then asking the cashier to count back the orders, repeat the orders to her friend on the phone, change the numbers of cuppacinos, no wait, yes the previous number was right. Say it again. Hang on, was that 5 or 6. Okay, okay. Just do that.

I should have just stepped forward and said that I was ready to order. I can't believe the cashier just stood there waiting while other customers all stood behind clearly annoyed.

Selfish and inconsiderate idiots - they are everywhere.

Re: Things that tick you off!

People who can't choose a line to queue in, so they stand in the middle, and then the next person who comes along doesn't want to look like a queue jumper, so they stand behind. Next thing you know two registers have just one queue and all because some knob can't make a decision.

Also, guys who pee in the toilet stalls when there is nobody using the urinals. I understand that maybe some people are ashamed of what god gave them, but when i've gotta drop a duke, i'm not too sensitive. What really ticks me off though is that after waiting for the stall to be vacated by this guy who's now become a nervous tinkler because someone's listening, they neglect to flush, or worse still, have covered the toilet seat and floor in urine, as though they were marking their territory, or perhaps they're just selfish.

AND ANOTHER THING... since it's Christmas and i'm so fully of Christmas cheer, Christmas shoppers tick me off... and my wife is perhaps the worst offender. Now i like to treat my visits to the shops like a special ops surgical strike - slip in without any trouble, do what i need to do and then a quick extraction. It never happens though because each and every time it's the same story. I'm walking along the aisle at a brisk pace and about to overtake the lady in front who seems to be taking her time to read every label. No sooner do i make my move to pass does she stop and skew her trolley at right angles blocking my path. Why is that even necessary. And how about the groups of people who seem to congregate at the end of an aisle or intersection of aisles and seem oblivious to the fact that they're blocking everyone else. Even when i ask them to excuse me while i force my way through the menagerie, i'm getting death stares as though i'm the one that's in the wrong.

SERENITY NOW!!!

Floggers in Mercedes Benz Kompresser coupes who drive at 90km/hr along GE Hwy then, when you pass them in your fourby, they whiz past at around 140 - 160km/hr only to fall back to around 90 again! I pushed this idiot all the way from Southern Cross to Coolgardie and we kept leap frogging like that for 180km. I was contemplating nudging him off the road with the bullbar but that would be wrong. Wouldn't it?

They are definately strokers for sure. How often does this happen when you reach an overtaking lane and they speed up from 85kmh to 120 kmh, then slow down again??
It like they get white line fever when you overtake them or something. Its not just Merc drivers tho.
Lots of hire cars (Rent-a-thrash) with overseas drivers down this way.....Japs etc

This really P's me off as well however on the other side of the coin I love it when you are flying along a T2 lane with one car in front of you with an awesome clear run looking at all the cars in the peak hour traffic lane's going at 60 - 70km an hour but the twit in front of you then slows down as well... WTF. You have no traffic in front of you and you slow down, my wife calls this sympathy slow downs, the guy in the car in front feels sorry for the standard lanes. They speed up pretty quick but when a flash of 2 50W HID's from behind.
