Just say what u want just so its not loaded with bad words,will u know the drill,,just abreviate with x's and such. No order here, just do it, out of topic is fun.

So, I dont care for people with a face full of metal like [censored] in eyebrows, noses, just ears are ok, the other stuff is stupid.IMHO
 
I don't like it when people swerve too wide to make a turn. You know, like for example, when they are turning right, and swerve partially into the left lane first, turn, and then overshoot the turn like they were pulling a long trailer....but they are not.
 
For you Moto Droid users, the Droid X is a VAST upgrade over the original Droid. HDMI output, HD movies, 8 meg camera, and it is its own hotspot for laptops and other WIFI devices.

Also, I love elliptical machines. Never had used one before about 2 months ago but now I'm hooked over treadmills.
 
I think truck drivers that don't have mud-flaps that extend to within 1 inch of the ground and/or that leave "gators" on the highway should be shot in the buttocks and then peed upon.

OTOH, I don't like it when people cut a left turn short into the oncoming lane, especially when you are in said oncoming lane approaching the intersection. Then they glare at you like you're the one that's done something wrong. That happens a lot around here.

Twitter is addicting.

Rush was fantastic in concert this past week.

I really do thank God for Friday.

George Carlin and Mitch Hedberg can make me laugh even on a bad day.
 
My biggest pet peeve: "What part of, "We're broke!" don't you understand?"

My second biggest pet peeve: So I send my kids off to driving school, (three of them now...) and they come back with ridiculous habits. There they teach them to keep their hands on the wheel, and exactly 3-o'clock and 9-o'clock, and not to move them more than one inch in any direction. And so, when they go to negotiate a turn, they "shuffle" the wheel back and forth from one hand to the other, frantically trying to keep the car from plowing into a tree. The car actually ZIG-ZAGS slightly as the turn is being made!! So now it takes me weeks to teach them to do it correctly.

(I'm sure someone will come in and say, "Well, they're actually right..." Says who?)
 
I was just at my Dr. and he is from Iraq.

He likes the cold of winter, but NOT the snow - I found this weird - most people like the snow in winter (freash, clean, sparkly), but hate the coldness of winter.

I don't like when someone stops to turn left and they block the breakdown lane because in their uninformed opinion it's not safe for anyone to pass them on the right. Well screw that, I'm going, even if it kicks up grass divots, and watch me thread the needle past your passenger's rearview mirror.

I like the cold of winter, below 15'F. Keeps the mosquitoes down. Snow, take it or leave it, turns to mud, which is taking a long time to dry up this year.

Nobody in Miami-Dade or Broward County uses their turn signals..Not even the Leos..On top of that they make turns just like river_rat just said.

turn signal usuage is at an all time low from coast to coast
 
I much prefer a traffic circle to a 4 way stop.

But,

Unfortunately it seems a large percentage of people have absolutely no idea how to navigate one.

The other day I yielded to someone already in the circle, but they saw me and stopped abruptly. The car behind them could not stop in time and pushed the offending idiot nearly into my front bumper, and blocked traffic while they got out of their vehicles, cell phones glued to their ears.
 
Snowmobiles crossing a highway NEVER have the right of way. Had some bimbo stop dead fromm 50 to zero to wave a guy across. Snowmobile trail crossings are not engineered for highway safety and visibility.

Self tapping screws are the bee's knees. Imagine a sharp pointy drill bit every time you start a hole, well they stick one on every screw.
