This, and I hate when I'm walking and not really at the corner yet cars want to stop and wait for me. I'd rather they just go and get completely out of my way before I get there. I don't need them to watch me cross in front of them. I usually just walk behind their car so that they can go. I don't like holding people up or having people wait on me to cross.

When I walk across a crosswalk and there are people waiting to turn I speed it up to a jog. I don't really expect other people to do that but I hate mofos who slow roll that **** like it's cool to take it super ****ing easy. Obviously if its a person who is old or really young or who isn't physically capable of a brisk walk then it's fine.

Another one are the people who walk out of a store and walk diagonally across the traffic lane instead of directly across so that the cars can start moving again. Semi-related is when you have been sitting at the wal-mart entrance for a few minutes as an endless stream of people cross and as soon as there's a gap someone who could go behind or just slow down a bit charges out and forces you to wait for the next endless wave of people.

Did I mention that I hate everyone, like a lot.

One I have noticed that has risen in the late 90's to today are the high-school age kids, or thereabouts, who don't look at all and just walk into traffic right in front of the car, then slap the hood and/or flip you off if you don't stop fast enough. I saw way more of this in Utah than here, but here is has happened at least twice. Goes along with the morons who stroll across the street, and usually is accompanied by pants hanging down around their knees.

The rise of the cellphone has coincided with the decline of the driver.
 
When you mentioned cell phone I saw a classic the other day. The road I take to go to work is a steep decline 4 lane highway. Either side slopes gently away from the road. Some guy passed me in a big truck, texting, and swerving all over the place. He was going faster then slower and generally being a moron. I passed him again and as I looked in my rearview mirror he went right over the edge, down the slope and plowed into another truck parked off the side of the road. I sure hope his mistress or whoever got that last text. It was great.

It was right about here:

It's way annoying when posters on websites make special threads to kiss the owner's butt. Gets on my nerves.

Sir, I beg to differ. This trend has been adopted by people of all ages, colors, creeds and weight. All of them distracted by their own importance in their tethered mobile device or by their feelings of entitlement.

I went out on a date a couple of months ago and the girl and I were walking in our neighborhood. Before I step off a block in a busy area, I always look to see if I'm clear. You know, the whole look both ways before you cross thing. Anyway, this practice was so surprising to the girl, she actually commented about it. I was the first guy that she dated that did this habitually. Go figure.
