In no particular order and subject to change depending on my whims... 1. People who jaywalk, and then slow down when they see you driving up. Seriously, I would run over you if it wouldn't leave a you-shaped dent in my car. The car has enough dents in it from your escapades, dear. Maybe you can just hit ’em hard enough to knock them to the ground? 2. People who park over their line, into my space. I will actually inconvenience myself just to park next to you, and block your door. I will crawl out of my passenger's side door just to make you do the same. I will never cross over my line, and if someone is parked in such a way that I have to, I will find a new spot. But for you, big SUV or fancy Mercedes, I will snuggle up as close to you as I can, while staying in my spot. The best is if I can make my rear-view mirror block yours so you have to wait until I leave. Petty, yes. But I never claimed I wasn't. Speaking as a guy who is only vindictive as long as it doesn’t inconvenience himself: Wow. Just…wow. I didn't realize how scary you were until just now. Just now? Really? 3. People whose brats are yelling in that 'not upset, just like to hear my own shrill voice' way they do, and the parents just look at you and smile like, "Ain't he precious?" I just have to remind myself that dropkicking children is frowned upon. Note to self: Find or start a culture where dropkicking is tolerated and/or rewarded. And where annoying babies are banned. Note to wife: This baby-free culture may be hard to perpetuate. 4. People who EMAIL OR POST IN ALL CAPS for no reason. NO REASON!!! Caps lock is NO EXCUSE! See? Appropriate use of caps. I'm there with you. TOTALLY.
