Small things in life you hate

The lazy pigs who leave their shopping carts in the parking lot, especially at Wally World. It's like a magnet for people who turn lazy and inconsiderate when they unload their shopping cart. And my detestation for those who leave empty shopping carts in disabled parking spots cannot be expressed on this forum.

Do you know my wife? I do truly appreciate her (and your) passion for a cart free parking lot, but every once in a while she could give it a rest and It wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit.
 
Seeing the "Salt Life" sticker on nearly every vehicle in Florida. Especially when it's on a big pickup truck.

If you think it looks pathetic in Florida, imagine how lame it looks when every 4wd "whitetail hearse" and "soccer taxi" SUV in north Alabama has a "salt-life" sticker on it's back glass. In Realtree Oak for the boys and Realtree Pink Oak for the ladies. Of course not to be outdone, a lot of locals are now sporting "assault-life" emblazoned over an M4 silhouette, or "My gun family" over a line of pistol, shotgun, long rifle, and M4.

Between that and the "I ain't tailgatin, I'm draftin" stickers plastered on the econoboxes piloted by the daddy's little princesses, 20 something single mom crowd in daisy dukes and cowboy boots who live their bumper sticker creedo, it's a laugh-a-minute.

Toilet paper where the first 3+ windings of the roll are stuck together. Irritating. Even worse at the end, especially if there isn't another roll handy. Guy could hurt himself shuffling for another roll with trow' dropped. Sayin.

Sq'use me sir, you got singles for a fiver?
 
People who put farm diesel in their truck, which everyone else gets to breathe but them.
People who cannot turn their vehicle through a protected left at any speed other than at idle.
Listening to chewing.
People who slurp coffee.

I'll stop there. Now, some folks would say, "No, no, no, you hate it WHEN people do those things. You don't hate the people who do them." Yes, I do.

Cops always assuming that I'm drunk, just because I get McDonalds at 3:00am after work once in a while.

Crappy old Hondas with big ole Fart can exhaust tips. Sounds like a long fart into a PVC pipe, amplified.

Anyone going at or under the speed limit in the left lane! It's not just Prius drivers! I've had to pass corvettes on the right because they insist on going 60 in a 65 when the traffic flow ahead of them is going 75.

Crappy engineers that can't even draw a print correctly... Makes my job almost impossible when half of the dimensions on the print don't match the solid model that they gave to programming.

1. Lists

People who use way way too many words and not enough punctuation to make a simple point when responding to a message in a thread about small things in life you hate especially when they go on and on and never just shut up and yeah the ones that never use periods or carriage returns (ha! what's that a place to take back rental buggys??) but just keep on typing keep on typing keep on typing then put a dumb tl/dr one liner at the bottom that makes no sense whatsoever

tl/dr mellowinman is a super rainbow boy
