I will start with people who feel the need to mark every god damned email with a red urgent marking. Call me if it is that damned important- you have my number, jackass.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

Email, what’s that? You kids today.
Keith
Better yet, don’t call at all and quit marking all your emails as super-duper-important. Outlook would be better served as instead having a “Not Really Important” icon, as all emails in a work environment have to be read (at least according to policy)
BTW: I’m going to take a wild guess and say John’s offender is an administrative assistant (or HR rep) of some kind.

The telemarketers who keep calling me on my cell phone, using up my minutes, with a recording which they claim is “the second and final notice that the factory warranty on my vehicle has expired” and I need to renew it with them, but they don’t themselves, or obeying my instructions to put me on their do-no-call list, and it’s the 50 millionth time they’ve called, and they’re going to call again, and I don’t even own a fucking car.

But, bitchin’ as an administrative assistant, it annoys me when I tell a ton people something minor needs to be done in 3 weeks, they put it off and pile it on me all at the last minute and act like it was the most important thing in the world!
If it was the most important thing in the world, they would have done it three weeks ago.

The lunatic fringe over at The Left Coaster!
I have been commenting over there for a while. Steve Soto went on sabbatical for while to write a book and turned it over to the front pagers. They tried to turn it into a Taylor Marsh clone.
There were/are some decent people there, so I thought I would lend a hand. Some progress was made, things were OK.
Today, Steve Soto called for Hillary to drop out and the place went insane. I have seen a lot of shit in my day, but I have never seen a trip to the dark side like I just saw.
Get this….the deranged Hillary supporters say they might vote for Obama if he apologizes for trashing the Clintons pristine reputation. Accusations of sexism and misogyny are thicker than Republicans at a NAMBLA meeting.
Several posters have accused Steve of having it in for poor Hillary and running an anti-Hillary site. This after Soto was one of the first bloggers to endorse Hillary, and let the Hillbot front pagers run wild. They insist they will vote for McKranky and accuse Obama of being arrogant, of trying to disenfranchise the ever important “low information” voter. They are proud of their stupidity, and insist the must be catered too or they will ” cause Barry to lose the election”
Dear god, being over here is like coming back from a trip to “the Heart of Darkness”. How can these people call themselves Democrats. They are like Republicans, only crazier.
Please tell me we can tell these fucks to take a flying leap. They really really need to be marginalized.
There were calls to ban me, and to his credit Steve resisted. I told em I waz outa there anyway as I was worried about my sanity. Which I was. I am still shaken, and I don’t mean metaphorically.
I suggest if anybody wants to look into the face of pure stark raving insanity, go check it out. Take some Atropine Sulfate with you cause that shit is toxic.
Thank god for you sane people, and I think I will hang around here for a while till the nightmares go away.

Riverdaughter is just parrotting the well-known fact that only nonwhites play the race card. As we all know, whites have transcended race, and the only way for the

Right, the choice-of-rooms-in-Hell joke punchline: “All right everyone, coffee break’s over. Back on your heads!”
I’ll nominate Billy Mays, the pitch guy on low-end TV commercials. In fact, he’ll supply the human waste himself, in the never-ending stream that’s coming out of his mouth.

People who are having such an important life or death conversation on a cell phone they cannot hang up to order/pay for something…
If your negotiating peace in the Middle East, maybe you shouldn’t be stopping to buy a Big Gulp. If you’re not, hang up the fargin’ phone so you can have a conversation with the nice employee in front of you!

I’m an AA (glorified), too, and my advice is NEVER, EVER, EVER give them the exact deadline when everything has to be turned in. Always give yourself a leeway of 3 days to a week by telling them it’s due in 2 weeks or 2 weeks, 4 days. That way, you have ample time to do what you have to do. :)

God. Reading that makes me feel like I’m standing on the sidelines watching David facing-off against Goliath.*
Everyone around me is saying “Goliath is so big and strong. Look at all the armor. He’s going to crush David.” and I’m thinking “Goliath is weighed down with 50lbs of bronze and facing an opponent who is 50-100 yards away and armed with what is arguably the best missile weapon in the ancient world in the hands of an experienced user. David doesn’t need supernatural help from God – Goliath is fucked for purely natural reasons” .
Part of me wants to explain how wrong they are. Another part of me just wants to gambling.

People who respond to EVERY e-mail on EVERY Obama listserv by replying TO THE ENTIRE LIST with:

mitch
People who feel compelled to tell you every boring detail of their lives when you politely ask how their weekend was (or worse, if you don’t ask, they simply volunteer it).
People who routinely take loud, lengthy personal calls at work.
People who, whenever you bring up something in your own life, even to someone else entirely, immediately find a way to revert the conversation back to themselves, regardless of how slender the conversation thread that brought them there.
People who think they are artists but are clearly hacks.
People who constantly interrupt you and refuse to listen, even when they ask a question.
People who implant themselves in others’ conversations seemingly at random.
People who laugh like elmer fudd at their own quips, though they rarely, if ever, make sense (much less are funny).
People who move their lips as they type 5,000 word manifestos cleverly disguised as emails, all the while avoiding work.
People who believe their taste in music is eclectic and interesting, but who have “Do You Know The Way To San Jose?” and “Surfin’ Bird” at least three times each on their iTunes playlist.
People who have absolutely zero self-awareness, yet whose universe revolves around themselves in an undeserved paean to their own intelligence and wit.
I could go on, sadly. Needless to say, this is all the same person in my office, and she is the most annoying person I have ever met in my almost 30 years of life, hands down. Everyone in the office avoids contact with her and knows simply not to speak in her presence, lest you unleash a torrent of vapid blather. Unfortunately, I’m in the same room with her and 2 other people.

This delicious copypasta is for you, 4thelulz:
Yo VIP let’s kick it
Ice ice baby
Ice ice baby
All right stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop yo I don’t know
Turn off the lights and I’ll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
I’m killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gain weight
You better hit bull’s eye the kid don’t play
If there was a problem yo I’ll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
CHORUS
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin’
Quick to the point to the point no faking
I’m cooking MC’s like a pound of bacon
Burning them if you ain’t quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I’m on a roll and it’s time to go solo
Rollin’ in my 5.0
With my rag-top down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
Did you stop no I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I’m heading to the next block
The block was dead
Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous ’cause I’m out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they’re so full of eight balls
Gunshots rang out like a bell
I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
Bumpet to bumper the avenue’s packed
I’m trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene you know what I mean
They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem yo I’ll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
REPEAT CHORUS
Take heed ’cause I’m a lyrical poet
Miami’s on the scene just in case you didn’t know it
My town that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
‘Cause my style’s like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn
If my rhyme was a drug I’d sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it’s time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem yo I’ll solve it
Check out the hook while Shay revolves it
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
Yo man let’s get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby too cold
Ice ice baby too cold too cold
Ice ice baby too cold too cold
Ice ice baby

I don’t write checks at the grocery store, either.

Hey, peace is thirsty work, my friends.
To add to the list, though, but I have a special loathing for men between the ages of 55 and 70 who, even though I am not their subordinate, expect me to kiss their ass and smile even when they’re being utter idiots, for the sole reason that they’re older than me and have a penis. If I think you’re wrong, I’m going to argue my point, and if you don’t like to be “sassed” by “that young girl”, well…too fucking bad.
(Apologies to anybody present who falls into this age group. If you don’t act like that, my rant does not apply to you.)

Yes, cell phone/bluetooth users who don’t have the courtesy or common sense to use them appropriately.
Stood in line at Target behind a woman who carried on a conversation with thin air (aka bluetooth) while the cashier rang up the purchase and she ran her card and signed the receipt. At least she nodded a quick “thank you” on her way out.
I don’t get it. Most people would never carry on a conversation with a third person while ignoring the person they’re dealing with. Why don’t such basic sensibilities transfer over to the electronic gadget realm?
And I absolutely hate seeing people gabbing on a cell phone while barreling down the freeway with one hand on the wheel. Or holding their coffee cup in one hand.

Damn straight. Check-writers are the worst, because just about all of them do what TZ described. But I’d also throw in all the other transaction-constipators, like people who insist that their expired coupon from another store really does apply to this purchase, or who try to pay with deposit slips or Slovenian pork belly futures.

Then there was the couple in front of me, and a long line of waiting customers, who waited until the transaction was completed and payment made before taking a wrinkled 50-cent coupon out her purse and trying to apply it to the already-closed transaction.
The poor cashier ended up calling over the manager and while they fumbled with the problem, I pulled a dollar bill out of my pocket and offered to buy the 50-cent coupon for a dollar, to get the line moving.
Hey, says the guy, this is no concern of yours. Yes, says I, you are holding me, and ten other people, up, and that makes it a concern of mine. And I am offering a dollar for a 50-cent coupon.
Harumph, says he, this is NOT ABOUT MONEY.
Uh, excuse me, I says, it’s NOT ABOUT MONEY? THEN PREY TELL WHAT IS IT ABOUT SIR because you have ten people waiting here?
With that the guy snatches the coupon, grabs the missus, and stalks out of the store.
True story.

Hi Nikki,
Yeah, I do that, too. But it still doesn’t work with some people. But that’s OK because I don’t stress it. I just think its funny.

I know what really ticks me off.
People that interpret what another person is saying or doing and do not take responsibility for their interpretation, acting like its the other person’s problem.
I don’t know what it’s been lately, but I’ve been getting into the most idiotic arguments over stuff I did NOT say, but what the other person thought I was saying. Recently, I was having a debate with someone and I realized we were talking in circles. I said so and the other person looked wounded and about to cry.
What? I inquired. They said I was mean and that was the worst thing I ever said to them. I was stunned. I had no idea what he was talking about. He said I called him a stupid idiot. What!? I said we were talking in circles. He said its the same thing. I said they weren’t the same things. He insisted they were and he explained why. I told him that was all in his head and I said exactly what I meant. He said language is more nuanced than that. “Don’t you think you could be wrong about what you meant?”. I said no, I was the one saying it. I know what I mean and I wasn’t thinking you were an idiot… until now.
It spiraled into this long thing and the same thing happened a number of times with different people. What the hell is up with that?

Also, pundits who say “I think the American people are smarter than that.”
No. They aren’t. I am smarter than your average bear, and I voted for Bush twice. Americans aren’t smarter than that, whatever that may be. Asshole.

People that interpret what another person is saying or doing and do not take responsibility for their interpretation, acting like its the other person’s problem.
This is extremely annoying among individuals and even more so when it’s among news announcers. Kerry’s “botched joke” comes to mind.

One time I was with my in-laws and we were grocery shopping. When we were done, my father in-law decided to pull the mini-van up near the front door so we could load it up quickly and go. He happened to pull up in front of another car that was parked and completely empty. Halfway through throwing the groceries in the back tail-gate, the woman who parked the car behind us happened to come out of the store and had the gall to yell at us for loading too close her car.

3. People who pull into a turn only lane, so that they can zip in front of the line of cars in the other lane, as soon as the light turns green.
4. People who stop their cars in the middle of the road (blocking traffic), so they can have a conversation with someone on the sidewalk.
5. People who get offended at the idea that they might be homophobic, because they are uncomfortable with/dislike/want to avoid all gay people.

Religious proselytizers. I don’t go to your fucking door and tell you what I think of your belief system, so what gives you the right to come to my door (or leave those little passive-agressive flyers) and have the utter gall to tell me that your spiritual beliefs are superior to mine? And to do this at 8:30am on a Saturday morning when I’m trying to relax, sit in my underwear, and have my coffee and read Balloon-Juice? No, I don’t freaking well think so. So take your flyers and your mission and stuff them sideways up your arsehole.

You couldn’t help but register her jerkiness when the shocked – shocked!- Clinton insisted that her potential competitor should “apologize to the troops.”

Thanks goodness. I thought I was the only one who finds him supremely annoying and cloying.
Nice story. Reminds me of the time I went into a Subway, very hungry around 8pm. Some clown is in the midst of arguing with the cashier over 8 cents. No kidding. Don’t know why; maybe it was one of those deals where he used a coupon but you still have to pay the sales tax on the full amount.
In any case, after a couple of minutes watching this foolishness, I spoke up: “Excuse me, are we arguing over 8 cents? Here. Here’s 8 cents. Can I order a sandwich please?”
Mr. Cheapskate was stunned into silence, flapped his lips noiselessly a couple times, then silently turned and left. Cashier and I had a good laugh after Cheapskate left.

I hope someone has the mercy to put me down should I ever act like that in my old age.
Others:
People who tailgate you when you are hanging in the lane farthest to the right on the freeway, especially when there are multiple lanes free and clear to the left. I’ve slowed down to the speed limit on the freeway, even if it is 55 and let me tell you it definitely improves your mileage.
Assholes who drive the speed limit in the left ‘hi speed’ lanes. Leave it to the cops to police speeders, jerkoff; you’re just begging to cause an accident.
Jackass, ill-bred hosts who feel free to pontificate about politics when they have no clue whether their guests’ politics coincide with theirs. Um, long story about something that happened to me over Easter. I may seem opinionated here but in real life I am far too civilized and well-mannered to engage someone I barely know in a political argument, in their own house, and yet having to listen to ignorant, misogynistic nonsense is more than I can bear.
People who voted twice for Bush and still think that was a good idea.
Drivers who dangerously cut off bicyclists to pull into a driveway, in order to save the precious 2 seconds it would take to allow the biker to pass safely. This happens A LOT. I swear in the future I am going to start copying down license plates when this happens to me, and someday when I see that car again in a parking lot, key the everliving fuck out of it. It ain’t that big of a town; I’m bound to cross paths with these assholes again.

My candidate for burial and Icing: cage drivers who insist on cutting off motorcyclists. Let’s not even touch on the lanesharing/lanesplitting debate, especially since different places have different rules. I mean the SOBs who will move INTO the lane where the biker is while looking right at him/her. Or ride up their asses. Or turn in front of them. Or throw things at them with no provocation.
And gods, I wish I were kidding.

People who treat the wait staff like their personal slaves. I often think of reminding these boors that they don’t know what goes on with their food in the kitchen… then I think better of it, hoping that the wait staff operates on that same principle.
I once had a boss who got off on the power trip of making waiters/waitresses run around, like complaining about the coffee and asking for a fresh pot, or sending a plate back… just because he could. One time, I excused myself with the excuse of going to the bathroom, tracked down the waitress out of sight of our table and offered her 5 bucks if she would spit in his goddamned coffee before bringing it to the the table.

Also, my evil ex-boss who embezzled from the homeless shelter.
Able-bodied people who steal handicapped parking spaces.

Dumbshits who claim there is no global warming, and whose sole evidence in favor of this assertion is that they don’t like Al Gore. Almost all the time I encounter this, the people expressing such opinions are those who, let’s say, weren’t exactly AP students in high school and didn’t like all those egghead kids.
Acting out your high school issues 30 years after high school? Time to grow up, dumbshit.

Douchebags who try to squeeze past you on the right when the freeway on-ramp is narrowing down from two lanes to one. This bit of idiocy should be a valid defense for vehicular homicide.

1) Clueless fucktards who conduct running arguments on mail lists, rather than taking it private. I’m certain this has a lot to do with the innate human nature to have to be right/refusal to admit error. Do you really have to show off to everyone else on the list that you were/are right and the other guy was/is an idiot? No, you don’t.
2) Clueless fucktards who feel the need to post, “OK thanks!” and other meaningless messages to the entire list. OK this doesn’t quite rise to the bury and Ice treatment, but it’s still clueless.
3) People who, either through their size or lack of consideration, spill over into my personal space on the airplane. Either buy two seats, find two adjacent empty seats, or offer me compensation for use of the part of the seat that I purchased, asshole.
4) People with poor personal hygiene on airplanes.
5) People who constantly ask, ‘why did they do that?’ during the movie. WATCH THE MOVIE AND YOU WILL FIND OUT!

Various high school students who:
– get outraged when you won’t extend the deadline to make up that very important test they missed. Even after you wrote it up on the board for everyone to see when the deadline was and who needed to take the make-up.
– act like such drama queens (or kings) about what an asshole that other teacher in their other class is, when all he did was give them the grade they earned. And then actually expect me to sympathize.
– do something really bad to one of their teachers (nasty name-calling, or the like), eventually make a non-apology apology that even a republican would be embarrassed of, and then wonder why they’re still in trouble.

I used to carry around cards in my glove box that said “YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE AND YOU’VE BEEN KEYED. Can you find the mark?” Never actually keyed anyone, but I liked to imagine someone who doesn’t find the time to fit in the lines having to waste minutes and sweat walking around the car a few times.
A coworker is a legendarily shitty driver. People refuse to ask him for rides anymore (maybe that was the point) because he cuts people off and constantly treats every other driver as if they are nonexistent. He got a $150 (I think) ticket in the mail for littering. The ticket claimed he threw a cigarette butt out the window, and another driver saw him and reported the crime. I have no doubt he does just that with his cigarettes, but told him it was most likely a driver he pissed off on the road somewhere. So there’s another trick for your arsenal — fake littering fines.
My personal pet peeve is people who cut ahead when there is a line to exit the freeway. You are the reason that traffic is stopped in the first place, dickwad!
r€nato
awesome. I can’t stand it when people throw their butts out the window. That’s what the ashtray is for, dumbshit. Would you throw your other trash on the ground? Like your soda cup or Mickey D wrappers?
Yeah I can be a misanthrope sometimes. What about it, asshole? ;-)
r€nato
heh. I dated a woman whose sister thought exactly that way. The rest of her family was nothing like that. G/f had no idea why Mary turned out like that.
I like money too… a lot, sometimes. But, it’s not my life and it is certainly not worth doing things which would cause me to lose my soul, my self-respect, or my ability to sleep well.

The uncivilized apes I work with who:

You may be educated, but anyone who fell for Bush’s crap ain’t really all that smart.
The “five percenters” are the ones who are smart, the five percent of us that thought Bush sucked even right after 9/11/2001.
You have no idea of the abuse we five percenters went through between 9/11/2001 and about 2005 or so. And it was largely thanks to “smarter than the average bear” folks like yourself.
So my own personal nomination for burial/ghetto blaster treatment is anyone who at any time thought Bush was smart or competent. He was (and is) neither smart nor competent and all it took was a reasonable command of the English language to grok that in fullness.

1. People who call the doctor’s office where I work to request that we call in a refill on their medication that they a) don’t know the name of b) don’t know what dose they take or how often and c) don’t know their pharmacy phone number. Well, that makes it easy, now doesn’t it????
2. Insurance companies that require the doctor’s office to complete a “prior authorization request” for above prescription, as it is “not on their formulary”, requiring lengthy phone time on hold to get them to send me the fracking form, during which I am frequently either a) disconnected b) subjected to the stylings of Kenny G or c) reminded that my call is important and that they are a leader in providing quality care solutions to their insured.
Seriously, Sen. Obama — I live in Illinois, I helped make you a Senator — Put ME in charge of health care. It can’t possibly be worse than what we’ve got now.

Hey, Soliton… feeling smug and vindictive may carry a certain amount of self-satisfaction, but do you maybe think that you could spare a bit of forgiveness to those who have come around, like John? We’re not going to move forward from here with just the 5% who could tell Bush was hopelessly incompetent 10 years ago.

People who whine, “well I’m not going to vote for Obama/Hillary just because of haters like you”.
Look fucknut, you don’t want to vote for someone find your own fucking reason for not voting for them, don’t you dare use my legitimate disgust with your candidate to justify your fucking shallow stupidity.
And WTF is it with identifying so closely with a candidate that you take any criticism of them personally? They are fucking politicians, people. They’re not perfect and they ain’t your friend. Personally investing all your hopes and dreams in a political candidate to the extent that you take any insult of them so personally you will vote for a Bushbot bootlicker like John McCain is some wicked warped-assed shit. I’ve never seen anything quite like it before.
Winston Churchill once said, “The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”

When Bush voters had the upper hand how did they comport themselves, eh?
Shit rolls downhill and what goes around comes around.
I’m not smug, I’m enraged.. The Bush voters have ruined the future for my grandchildren and every time I look at their pictures on my desk I get angry all over again.
Societies which ate the seed corn in a lean winter paid a horrendous price for that mistake.. We don’t even have the excuse of a lean winter and we aren’t eating the seed corn.. We’re burning our seed corn to kill people halfway around the world that have never done anything to us.. Right now the bill for the Iraq war is about $10,000 for every man, woman and child in America.. I suspect it will come to considerably more than that eventually.
Fuck the Bush voters with an oversized red hot soldering iron, just like they fucked the rest of us.
