Here are a couple more of mine,
1. Radio stations that can't keep the schedule on their website up to date.

If this were facebook I'd click "like" for everything you just wrote.
I have to agree.
A website is like an ad for the radio station. If the information is not current, it's lacking the max. potential to get people to click  "listen live".
If the listen live option is not available, it's still reducing desire for local listeners to turn their radio on, or at least tune into to that particular station.

People who don't use turn signals. I almost plowed into the back of a car Friday Night that was just stopped in the middle of Wolcott Street because he was just waiting for traffic to clear in the other direction to make a left turn.

This is a pretty minor annoyance but...

Strange enough, the REAL annoying fact is that a crash might still be your fault for not being ready to stop at any one given time, regardless of the reason. Even if the real fact is that that person should have signaled in the first place.

True enough.

I have however come very near a crash because someone coming in my direction from the other side of a four-way stop didn't signal their left turn.  I guess they figured that because my turn signals weren't on either, I was obviously going to turn left too...

Clueless people.

Friday June 7th Connecticut got hit by what was left of Tropical Storm Andrea. As is the case whenever it rains I was stuck working at Shoprite rounding up the shopping carts in the parking lot.

Anyway a woman in her 20s walks by as I'm pushing a train of shopping carts and she says to me "I stepped in a puddle and ruined my $100 sandals. I'm suing Shoprite. I'm going to the courthouse to file the lawsuit right now."


Point #1: Why would you spend $100 on a pair of sandals?

Point #2: Who told you it was a good idea to wear your $100 sandals in blinding, blowing rain?

Point #3: I'm not too familiar with the court system in Connecticut, but I'm pretty sure you can't just go to the courthouse and announce that you plan on suing Shoprite.

Point #4: Personally I would like to see this case on Judge Judy. She would have a field day with her.

If not, people's court will do. It's fun watching either one of them yell "GET OUT!!"  Cheesy

When Mountain Dew decides to compete with themselves.
On the Canadian side there used to be a law that prevented select beverages from having any caffeine.
That law is gone. Out the window.
Now Mountain Dew has Caffeine, even though AMP citrus is also being made by the same company.
I think if they were smart, they'd go back to no caffeine in MD and remind the MD drinker that when they want a
REAL "Do the Dew" feeling, they want AMP!!!

I want my Caffeine free Mountain Dew back!!!  Cry
