I agree to a certain extent. Bicylists are not Annoyances unless they ignore the rules of the road. But the same goes for operators of all kinds of vehicles…
Wiley, thanks for including the gym grunter! I thought I was the only one annoyed by them. They also go “PSSSHHHH” rhythmically. One young man (of course most men are young, from my viewpoint) habitually rides the stationary bike till he breathes like Darth Vader on speed. A more common gym annoyance is the man (they’re almost always men) who use an exercise machine as a meditation pad or a permanent towel or bar-bell holder.I don’t want to annoy fellow commenters of the male persuasion; most men in the gym are considerate. I was going to say that women can be annoying, too, but I can’t think of any examples except for the hard-of-hearing gym manager who blasted the TV (on the gym floor) so she could hear her soap opera. Yes, she did back down when I complained.
What about drivers who don’t use turn signals ? Pretty useless on a horse, I guess. Okay, what about people who can only talk at one level, LOUD? Or those who seemed to have fused their cell phones onto their heads? Oh the list could go on and on.
Don’t have facebook, can’t stand it; not a whistler, can’t remember hearing one in recent years; stay out of gyms totally; I pick, but am careful to flick them under furniture or into garbage cans where no one will trip over them. I guess that means I’m not very annoying…someone should tell my family and friends.
apocolypse? armaggeddon? typical greco-roman mythology from the official state religion of the “holy” roman empire. you really need to sit down and try to read through some of revelation’s schizophrenic babbling idiocy that so many seem to regard as “prophetic”. give me a break.
“Waiting to fill out the freakin’ check until the all the items are scanned….oh of course that is after she finally digs the checkbook out of her purse…..then she thinks of all her coupons……Apackoflips now!!!!”
Ah, you’re describing a fast one. And you forgot to describe her re-packing her wallet, and then re-packing her purse, before even thinking about re-loading her cart, which she has left behind her blocking your way.
Ooops, now she coming back with some coupons she’d like to verify – as soon as she can find her purse and dig them out.
