Joe_Hoopsier Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 Toilets that have a water level WAY to close to the seat! Splish Splash sucks, dipping the toilet paper is just gross and I don't like my "snorkle tube" getting wet on the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy that I came here to make a post about toilets and this was the most recent post... I will never understand people who take a dump in public restrooms and don't flush. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maedhros Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 Sounds like an extension of the shopping cart rule: “To return the shopping cart is an easy, convenient task and one which we all recognize as correct, the appropriate thing to do. To return the shopping cart is objectively right. There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to return their cart. Simultaneously, it is not illegal to abandon your shopping cart. Therefore the shopping cart presents itself as the apex example of whether a person will do what is right without being forced to do it.” If character is how we act when no one is watching, then this is a pretty decent test of character. And yeah, people who leave their shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot, instead of returning it to one of the designated areas, are definitely one of my pet peeves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm on my way to return my cart and am passing close enough to one that someone left I will get it too. I can't explain it, just something I have to do. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saves someone a trip to go fetch it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we ever happen to be visiting a barrier reef at the same time, I'll need to remember to decline when you offer me your 'snorkle tube'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted December 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 People who are not ready to move when the light changes. If I have to sit through a light a second time because someone in front of me is slow to move, well let's just say I get unhappy. Inappropriate words may or may not be spoken. Put down the phone. Look out the window, not who is sitting beside you or in the back seat. Pay attention to when the light for the cross street goes yellow. Hammer down on the gas petal the nanosecond the light turns green. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostin76 Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 This reminds me of the people in front of you at a store at the register who somehow forgot the whole “I have to pay for this” part. Cashier is done. We are all staring, and then it’s like “Oh, let me get my wallet out now.” Have that stuff ready my dude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 When people have their brights on behind me I've considered letting them get close and slamming my brakes really hard on occasion.

Steubenhoosier Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 Probably just me, and I shouldn't be such a Grinch during the holiday season, but... Companies who make ads using a Christmas carol and fitting the words in to describe their products or services. I would think that advertising agencies hire some bright, creative people who can do better than to bastardize Jingle Bells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The music mostly sucks. I can't stand the commercialization of it. I like some of the movies. Charlie Brown Christmas is the best. She loves The Grinch with Jim Carrey. I find that movie intolerable and probably the thing I hate the most about Christmas time is having to sit through it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
