Pet Peeves


Inconsiderate asses at the campgrounds that love to blare music past quiet hours. While I am all for listening to tunes around a campfire, there becomes a point in the evening where you just want peace and quiet, especially when the music happens to be country.

Fatass NASCAR spectators that take up all the room in the grandstands at NHIS. I say if your ass is big enough to require the room of 2 seats, you should have to pay for 2 seats. At one of the races last year, me and the little one got crammed in with the Fatty McGee family and barely had any room until the people in the row behind us shuffled and offered for us to move back with them. Half way through the race the fatties were gone as they couldn't withstand the July heat.

People that make excuses for not being able to handle their designated work tasks. If you can't or won't do the job as you are expected to and agreed to do when you were hired, go work somewhere else. Of couse, this might explain why I have gone through 4 assistants in the past year, but we have standards. Everyone pulls their own or gets the hell out. You're there to WORK, not play on the internet, not talk to your SO on the phone, etc.

Pet Peeves


Biggest pet peeve while driving is similar to the one above:

- If someone is lost or about to miss their turn they will inconvience and endanger eveyrbody else by holding up an entire lane so that they can make the turn

If I am lost and I need to make a left and I am 2 lanes over to make a right, well fock, that's my fault, I'll inconvience myself for being an idiot, not the 10 other people that I will hold up...

- People that won't let you merge nicely in traffic. You stopping 1 car from getting in front of you won't make an F'in difference, in fact, because you have broken any kind of nice alternating flow you are probably just adding to the damn traffic problem.

Wow, now I am all riled up

haha!! Did you mean to say "H-U-B-B-Y"??

I can go on forever but just generally get peeved abut inconsiderate, dumb, ignorant, uneducated morons.

To go along with the misunderstanding of phrases.... people who say "I could care less"

The proper saying is "I couldn't care less" If you COULD care less, that would mean it(whatever you're talking about) doesn't really bother you all that much.

All my friends say this and it drives me nuts

When VP says they will be here for us, then show up 1.25 hours late on friday and .5 hours late on saturday and still don't have the results from the previous race weekend even though it is on the web site the next day after a race.

MAYBE

let me elaborate. i only slow down to let people in, thats why it pisses me of when people don't realize you are trying to let them in. and i only do it when i know that the road the they are trying to get out of if impossible unless some one lets them in.
