		<description>The pet peeve I have are the blue tooth fools who walk around talking to it -- they look like a Jack Nicholson character on One Flew Over the Cooko&#039;s Nest, complete shizoids.:-@:-@</description>

		<description>They were mostly travelers that got bumped for some reason and had been there HOURZZZZZZ before I showed. The other goofy part is that she was packing a *dog* (not familiar with *dogs* the size of a big mac) in her carry on and bragging to her nimrod Bo how easy it was. I was so tired I hadn&#039;t even considered the ramifications of that stunt. Dog being scanned and airline security? If only she had been as docile as the pet.......

Here they don&#039;t like to use their turn signals until they&#039;ve reached the wide swing right mode, in order to make the left as though it was an 18 wheeler and somehow not burning the blinker for a couple ticks is building up carbon credits........and.........they&#039;re driving a mini-cooper!

That&#039;s two.</description>

		<description>Um - people who bypass the express line, figuring if they get behind someone with a full buggy in the regular line, they&#039;ll be able to jump to the front.

Maybe I&#039;m a bit of a jerk, but I&#039;ll invite them ahead of me if they&#039;re standing in line patiently, but if their feeling entitled (you can tell from body language normally), then I&#039;m back to ... go to the express line!</description>

		<description>GWR: I was in a terminal doing some hard time and some gal is dong the *Can you hear me now* conversation. No shut eye for those of us who have been in transit nigh on a day. Up walks bimbo chic doing the hair twirl and afore mentioned *aint got lips er brains* gum smackin&#039; and smacker came to mind within about one second of seeing the unit. (What&#039;s up with leopard camo mismatched stoopud shoes, belt sucked in three sizes past kidney failure, that might have fit her war painted face in the 6th grade?) Held my fire as she opened and shut what seemed like three hundred zippers and never shut her mouth the entire time. Like you said, foghorn Minnie mouse voice was driving me to the edge. She has even noted that she&#039;s getting *Dirty looks* to her boyfriend. Soon words will erupt I thought, as I wished for her gender to be that of a male. &quot;Hang on I got another call! SAAAAAAMMMMEEEEEEEEEE...ccchhhhhhh!! Another bo and I was out of patience!

Finally- I&#039;d had my fill and as was evident by the actions and mumblings of my  fellow hapless travelers, so had they. I spun round and had the battery out before she could say buh bye. &quot;Who do you think you are!&quot; and a few other unheard insults came my way from the selfish twit. &quot;Do you want this back?, as I held up the battery. &quot;Whadda you think?&quot;, says mindless twit? &quot;You don&#039;t wanna know what I think maam but if you wanna START thinking, there are about two dozen souls right here who&#039;d appreciate the hell out of THAT!&quot;, as I dropped the contents back into her lap. I would say that she whisked herself away but I don&#039;t know if it can be said that 150 lbs. of 5&#039;3 stuffed into a size 6 leopard grape skin whisks anywhere, short of an avalanche.

For the record, the smiles and thanks from my stranded mates were not necessary but.....and ........I really am fun to travel with!

That&#039;s one.</description>

		<description>Also today, some person driving a big expensive SUV, yacking away on a cell phone. Trying to give me the impression that they have no intention of even slowing down at the 4 way stop. It was my turn to go and I took it. I have gap insurance, make my day.

Be careful out there folks...</description>

		<description>Today on the freeway, there was some debris spilled out on the road. Mainly cardboard boxes. Most of the people slowed down to about 40 to swerve through the mess, and them some jackass comes flying through at 100 sending boxes in the air and almost creating an accident.</description>

		<description>&quot;People who have had their turn signal on since 1973&quot;....just come up here a couple hundred miles. Hardly anyone bothers to use their turn signals *at all*.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;sound effects that make each kiss sound like a cow pulling its foot out of wet mud.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

ROTFL!!  =))

First on my list are the dimwits who think they need to share their cell phone conversation with everyone within 50 yeards.  This odd creature can be identified by an extremely loud voice and generally inane speech content.  It wanders through life basically unaware of any other creature in its habitat.  This species appears to be growing exponentially, as there are no natural predators to keep them in check.  Although it&#039;s possible a certain large white rat may evolve to take on that role....   x(

Also, there&#039;s a mutation of that species:  the one who yaks on the cell phone while driving and pays no attention to the road.  This species can be identified by sudden and unpredictable changes in velocity (usually caused by the need to dial a new number).  The natural habitat of this creature is, of course, the passing lane of any interstate highway, where it builds &quot;dams&quot; that have much the same effect on traffic as beaver dams do on streams.</description>
