Small things in life you hate

When A holes roll through stop signs! when clearly I am coming down the street and end up on your bumper the second is if you tailgate me. Here in NJ the law is if a person is in the crosswalk even in the middle of the block they have the right way and you must stop or get a ticket and points on your licence so it isn't enough I have to look for the person who comes out of know where to cross in front of me I have jack hole inches from my bumper filling my rear view mirror. I haven't road raged anyone yet, but I had this one guy who wouldn't stop ride my a## and I took out my laser pointer and hit my rear view mirror and help him back off to a safe distant :)

At the gym, it is irritating when people...
- do not return weights to the proper spots on the rack. (35 Lb weight placed in 20 Lb spot)
- unnecessarily grunting/shouting when lifting weights.
- dropping weights after their last lift.


I can live with all of those. It's their f'n sweat on the bench I don't like to live with.
