1) People who want to enter a subway car not waiting for those who need to exit. You'd need to have a piece of your brain missing not to see how illogical that is. In Hong Kong there are little arrows at the edge of the platform which indicate that those entering should enter from the sides/wait for exiters...but guess what - they don't fuck'n care here either!!!!

2) Lateness. Most of my friends are consistently 20 mins. late whenever we meet socially... I can't even continue anymore it's making me so mad.

3) Tech support people who are reading from a script/always suggest "re-installing the software"/were dropped on their heads as babies.

4) Last but not least, some of my friends have what I'll call "financial over-optimism," which is when they'll tell me about something which is a good deal or cheap and mis-quote what the price actually is. This wouldn't bother me so much if they quoted higher just to be safe, but they're always making things sound better than they are. Example -

Greg: Hey I discovered this place near St. Lawrence Market called the Rainbow Cinemas. They have 2$ matinees!

ACTUAL PRICE = 6$

What if I didn't bring enough?? ....careless asshole...
