People who think they are so smart but use "of" in the place of "have". I stop reading whatever it is as soon as I come across that.

People who think they know about cars, but don't know ****, talking to me about my truck or cars in general.

People who take a lifetime to back into a parking spot in a busy parking lot, holding everyone up. For what? Do you know something the rest of Dont? Is there an impending emergency that you know about? It can’t be that you don’t like backing out of the spot, that’s easier than the insanely terrible job you just did backing INTO the spot.

When someone over-emphasizes their birthday, especially when they downplay everyone elses. You get just one day. None of this birthday weekend/week crap. No shaming people who have other things to do and can't drive a half hour away for an expensive dinner. Once you're past 25, you tell your friends "Hey I'm going out or having people over for my Bday, would love if you can make it, if not no worries"...

The GF has a friend whose birthday is near Christmas, and makes a huge effing deal about it, every year. Can't even wrap her presents in Christmas paper or else she gets pissy.

.. at the same time. I kind of worry about myself, for getting mad over people wanting to celebrate their birthday. I kinda feel like..

There’s something to be said about “back it in” guy. At work I’m just trying to find a spot, period. This guy is backing in like he’s parallel parking for the first time ever. I’m sitting there making eye contact with the dude, and he just goes on like it’s the normal thing to do.
It’s not

I’m with you on this one big time. Just had a friend talking about how it was their birthday month. I’m doing math like ‘we have to celebrate your birth for 8% of the year now?!?’.

Oh yeah, this one. It's your typical "world revolves around me" type of move. You always have to wait for them to get it right. I've taken the stance now that once they back in the first time, I then go, even if they try and fix it a 2nd or 3rd time.

I could write a book on cars and parking. So much **** annoys me on the road lol.

Cooking bacon is a pain mainly because of the cleanup. No matter how you cook it, you're cleaning up some form of a grease mess.

In relation to today's weather climate. The idiot who drives down New Circle Road with his entire car covered in snow and ice with only the drivers side windshield scraped off. Not only can you not see moron, but all that snow and ice is going to fly off the car and possibly hit another motorist in their windshield.
Almost happened today.

That reminds me of a story from back around 94-95.

I was going to school in Lima, Oh and a couple of guys I lived with were from Detroit. We made the trip from Lima to Allegre,KY to pick up a pound of weed from my sister. When we left, it was the worst blizzard I've ever seen but it slowly let up the further south we traveled.

We arrive about 3am, get a few hours of sleep, and get ready to head back. We went to Wendy's in Hoptown for breakfast and when we came out, I looked at the car and said "We've gotta hit a car wash. If we get pulled over, our story of staying the weekend here isn't gonna work with that inch thick sheet of ice on the roof. "

We hop in and start through the parking lot. As we come around the turning around back side I hear (insert whatever ice sliding noise works for you), look to the side, and there's a 4ft x 4ft inch thick sheet of ice flying through the air towards parked cars. I thought we were screwed but it was at the perfect angle and went right under the bumper.

That would've messed up that car pretty bad if it hit it.

People who post a picture of their dog(s) on Facebook 5 days a week. Got one friend who posts 3 times as many pictures of her dogs as her kids. I mean great you have a dog, but after 30 or 40 posts, DGAF

Got a buddy who is a cat guy. Posts pictures of his 5-6 cats almost every day. No pics of his wife, kids, grandkids, nothing. Just cats. I really want to say GTFOH with all that.

I skip right over them, unfortunately this woman is a good friend of my wife, and knows everyone in the south end of town, so I cannot dare make fun of her or my wife would kill me and i would be socially cancelled

Having young children/preteens that have grandparents that buy them ridiculously expensive tablets no matter how much you oppose it. You then have to put a password on the tablet so your kid can’t download whatever they please and have access to anything and everything. So then you have to be asked to enter a password into their tablet every 5 minutes all day, every day.

Have to add pickup trucks for the numbnuts who don't clean out their truck beds and you have sheet of ice flying out of it towards your car.

News coverage of Tim Tebow’s retirement from minor league baseball. Seriously? Do people really give a rat’s backside about this dude and his disappointing professional athletic career? I sure don’t.
