This might seem like I'm a heartless piece of **** but I hate the Salvation Army and their bells during the holidays. It might just be me feeling bad that I don't give money but I shop religiously at the Salvation Army and my wife and I give to charitable donations through our business, but do I really need some dude shaking a bell and staring me down every time I walk past them at Walmart?
 
Drivers in the other lane who upon realizing the lanes are going to merge will speed up and try to pass as many other drivers as possible for some perceived huge advantage over others.
So infantile.

The bell ringing is annoying for sure. I usually just carry a bunch of dollar bills with me and stick one in their bucket wherever I go rather than just a lump sum in one.

I almost got hit the other day trying to drive up an exit ramp and the bastard behind me tried to go around me. It wasn't two lanes. And he blared his horn at me. If I was in my PT, I would've slammed on the brakes. Lord knows I wouldn't mind totaling that car. :lol

Drivers especially moronic are the ones who do it and then throw on the blinker asking the drivers he just passed to let him merge. Lol!
I love it when they get shut out.
 
Today I hate touch-screen phones. Asked by an old lady to put in her phone credit. She understandably assumed that the young man before her would know how to do it, but in actuality I'm completely inept with these things. Man it was a ****ing chore. How to open the damned keypad for a start, eventually found it, only to have to deal with the most unresponsive screen I've ever encountered. Practically having to hammer the buttons with my finger to get them to respond at all only to hit the wrong one - and that one worked! I then look for an error-correct or backspace button to no avail and have no recourse but to exit the keypad completely. I try to go back in only for the same button to now take me somewhere else entirely. A few backtracks later I eventually get back into the keypad only for all the same $h!t to go down. Back out, an attempt to get back in leads to the mystery destination once again, back out, try again and, success, the keypad has returned. By some miracle I manage to finally enter the correct number to reach the top-up service and just before I find the 'call' button, after all that ****ing hassle, the phone starts ringing with an incoming call undoing all of my efforts.

In the end I never got the credit into her phone. Was then dealing with other people by the time she finished her call.

As long as I have a choice I will never buy a touchscreen phone. ****ing nuisance.
