20 People I Can Do Without!

Here is a list of "20 People I Can Do Without!"

Men who say "Hidee" as you walk by.
Cashiers who say "There ya go" when handing me my purchase instead of "Thank You."
The guy at the StarMart who say "Hey, Guy" when I walk in the door.
The kid behind the register at Hollywood Video that offers his unsolicited opinion of the movie I'm renting.
Men who pull up to the urinal next to me and want to have a conversation.
Men who take a dump in the men's room at work and open the exit door without having washed their hands.
The people who snap their neck backwards as a response to "Good Morning."
The jerk at the gas station who won't give me a "wave" when I let him pull out in front of me in traffic.
The person in front of me at the bank drive-through who does nothing until they get to the front and then decide to fill out their deposit slips.
People who don't bathe.
The Redneck neighbor who's four pick-up trucks have contributed more oil to our street than you'd see from a oil tanker spill.
Department stores that put up Valentine's Day merchandise the day after Christmas.
The Ass Clown in front of me at Mc Donald's drive-through that has three special orders and refuses to "pull forward" and wait.
News Anchors who loose their jobs and wind up selling used cars or hearing aids on television.
Ministers that spit in the middle of a sermon.
Parents that let their kids play in the front yard and never check on them.
People who seldom speak to you but are happy to invite you to a Pampered Chef or Discovery Toys party.
People that try to guess what nationality I am (they're never right).
Folks that leave a store in front of me and feel they have to keep their hands on the door and hold it open until I am there to catch it.
The father who ignored his daughter's pleas of "Daddy watch me do jim-nax-ticks" to instead check his e-mail on his BlackBerry pager.

#4 especially pisses me off! I have gotten this kind of crap not only at video stores, but when buying books or CD's as well.

I freely admit that I love the movie "Xanadu". I was buying it at this store (I think it was Suncoast Video), and the kid who rang it up had some snide comments. Little punk probably wasn't even BORN when this movie first came out!

#6. Those bathroom exit/entry doors should be hinged to open without requiring me to touch them with my hands. No handles. I just want to kick the door open. Ew.

#9 and #13.. Yes! That irritates me. It's just inconsiderate. Expecially when at the bank, it's obvious they find a pen somewhere within their car. !? What was wrong with filling it out while waiting in the line that whole time? Jerks.

Or worse, at the store when people have only 10 items. They get in the express line. Okay, fine.. I have 3 items so I wait patiently. Then they have to do 10 seperate check outs, with 10 seperate bills, envelopes of cash, coupons and then give ME nasty looks when I roll my eyes and sigh all irritated.

#10 What's worse is they seem to be the ones in this world who wave by extending their arm straight up. Oh pewie. Make me nearly barf.

Okay that's enough for now *laughs* I'll get all wound up otherwise! :)

#15 -- What? Ministers that spit? Where do you go to church?? :)
#19 -- I get this all the time at work. I guess they're trying to be polite, but as payment for their kindness I have to jog the last few yards to the door. Otherwise they stand there with just their fingers hanging on, but the rest of their body language says "hurry up you slow bitch! I'm trying to be nice here!" Dude, I can open my own doors, thanks.

I can do without the women in front of me at the supermarket, who make the rest of the line wait while they organize their wallet... $1s in this pocket, quarters in the zippy one, the receipt over here...AAAAARGH! Must.Slap.

Then, I hate the people behind me in the supermarket who are shoving their cart of my ass in an effort to somehow speed the line along. Give me my space, people!

Okay, I'm done.

I do not know you well enough to guess what nationality you are, so..sorry.

What about when it's 90 degrees and Starbucks tells you they've run out of Frappuccino mix???

This is good, I agree with most of them but would add #21 -- People who are sick and should be at home in bed but instead insist on coming to work and spread the "disease" to as many of their work mates and they can, all the while bitching and moaning about how sick they are and how they really shouldn't be at work. (probably the same people who don't wash their hands after the trip to the facilities.)
