david User ID: 16910407 United States 12/06/2012 10:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People (Usually women) that ask to cut me in line at the grocery store. Quoting: Leslie Zevo People (Usually women) that leave the line at a gas station to go shopping, come back five minutes later with fifty items then say "Excuse me, I was next." and act shocked when I say "No you weren't." Yup, when the cashier tells the mother of twelve that the product she has is not allowed on ebt, so she has to go find the item that is covered by ebt while the productive members of society, have to wait while her kids fight over skittles and sweet tea in that vein, people who park their carts perpendicular in the aisle while chatting with friends either in person or worse, on a cell phone. people who sit their baby's but on the belt at checkout. more on that topic; people who hold up traffic in the parking lot for ten minutes. so desperate to get the closest parking space, they wait for ever while someone loads their car with 20 bags of groceries. people who yell at the helpless clerks at convenience stores about the price of gasoline. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27227279 United States 12/06/2012 10:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My pet peeve is that culturally the habit of calling everyone a "guy" has become ingrained. It is degrading, imho, to women. I took my 86 year old mom out to eat recently. My mom looked wonderful, having taken great care to dress to go out. I also felt I looked like it was a special occasion. Still, at the restaurant we went to, our waiter addressed us as "guys", 4 times. "Hi, how are you guys doing today? Can I get you guys anything to drink? You guys come here often? You guys need more time with the menu?". One time, I did ask the waiter if he would feel as comfortable asking the two LEOS seated together down the row from me, "Hey girls, can I get you something to drink?"... He "got it" and addressed us in a more respectful ways the rest of our meal. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1544701 United States 12/07/2012 07:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I hate Olive Garden. Yea I said it. I hate everything about it. How they all look the same, have the same menu, the stupid "endless pasta." Most of all, I hate how people think it's real Italian food. The stupid breadsticks...what part of Italy are those from? And the sauces that are formulated in the same laboratory as doritos. The same generic Italian American menu no matter what season it is. The overcooked pasta. Farm raised fish. Factory farmed meat. Olive pomace oil bought from cysco that costs $4 per gallon. The fake parmesan cheese that can't legally be called parmegianno on the menu, cause it's not from Italy, it's from a Kraft factory. Chicken piccata in January. Chicken piccata in March. Chicken picatta in June. Chicken piccata in November. Wow the United States must have a really long caper season. "When you're here you're family." Yea except nobody in the place is Italian and some guy with a walkie talkie is watching me eat. It's fast food, but its even worse than burger king, because at least when people eat burger king they know that they're eating shit. There's people out there who honest to God believe Olive Garden has good food, and that's fucking scary. |

struggler User ID: 29062127 Australia 12/07/2012 07:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People thinking they know more than animals and the law of eat raw, they just keep going to hospitals and accepting the authority of those within them while neglecting the obvious around them, if they ever tear themselves away from the artificial world we have created. And the obvious cruelty of fleshual [my new word hah] influence [lust] in denying babies their natural sustenance from their mothers when they probably got to enjoy the benefits from their own. Yea, milk theft. Better without it from other beasts, we lose the ability to break it down after we are weaned. Science [non bought studies from industry involved] backs this. How regardless of effort the way is blocked by other humans interference in all matters, and they think they are being helpful. How we are taught history that is irrelevant and debatable to our place in society, and things that matter most, like avoiding entrapment, is never taught. And, and, and, unsure why we come back, obviously choice is not ours in this regard. Without early death or perpetual movement away from humans. Ah well, tomorrow is another day and sleep seems to wash away the cares of yesterday. Stay with the now and concern ourselves with whats in our face at the moment I guess. May be all a lesson in futility after all. |
