What minor thing pisses you off more than it actually should?

RECURRING MAINTENANCE

This doesn't just apply to vehicles, though I do hate changing oil, rotating tires, etc etc etc. Recurring MX in LIFE gets under my skin. Taking a shower, brushing teeth, going to the store AGAIN to get my kids milk. Mowing the lawn. Can't stand repetitive shit.
 
I'll start: people who let their turn signal blink just once while switching lanes. I can't stand that shit!

Brilliant. I've always been bewildered by drivers who put on their signal and then IMMEDIATELY SHUT IT OFF when they see you in their blind spot. Why the hell does your signal exist? Are you embarrassed by your impending lane change? Isn't the point of your signal to "signal" your intent to change lanes? What the hell is the point of your signal if you're only going to use it when no one is in your way?

I can't stand the a-hole drivers that think putting on thier turn signal means that everyone else must stop to give them the right of way since it is thier street in the first place.

Almost as bad are those that speed up to close the gap when a vehicle signals to merge into an appropriate opening in traffic.

Third would be the ones that blieve right turn on red mean that you are obligated to let them pull out in front of you when you have waited in a mile backup rather than wait for thier turn at the light.
 
The 10th time I tell someone to do something a certain way. I'm beyond patient the first 9 times, I'll stop, go over, explain it, make sure it is understood. The 10th time is when I go fucking ballistic. Why is one more time the trigger? No idea, it shouldn't really piss me off more than the first nine but it does. Stop standing my cordless tools on the battery, if I had my way about it, they would all have round bottom batteries. (except for the flashlight)

Years ago, I switched my entire shop over to the the little Milwaukee M12 tools almost entirely for that reason. I saw way too many drills with bits fall over towards finished woodwork. Broken drill bits are irritating, but scratches and gouges cannot happen.

I remember running across a client's living room to catch a wobbly white Makita drill holding a 1/16" bit that one of my guys just set down and was dancing point first right in front of a painting we were installing. And I had just recently given my talk about always setting tools down in other people's houses in such a way that they cannot fall down any further.

Driving Semi’s for 20 years and when I put my blinker on it means imma changing lanes.

People who leave the least amount of food; milk, peanut butter, jelly, cereal;
whatever it is JUST FINISH IT OFF AND THROW IT AWAY !
 
I'm a non politically correct sarcastic old bastard who has been around the Horn a couple of times. I can't think of something or someone that doesn't piss me off.🤣🤣🤣 Oh, maybe Hummingbirds. They don't piss me off.

People who flick their cigarette butts out the window or just casually drop them out the window at the traffic lights, like they're trying to do it without anyone knowing, we CAN see you doing it !!! (especially when they are still lit)🤬
