Picking up my land line phone and having the cell start ringing. I can't believe how often that happens!

I used to get about 4 or 5 wrong numbers per day on the land line beause our number was close to one for a big store near by. Finally I got a new number and told all my friends and family. Made the whole transition. Then I started getting the wrong number calls again! Well, it turns out that when someone calls the big store and mis-dials they get my old number, then they get the recording with the new number and call that number correctly, which gets them to me. Grrrrr.

How about the idiots who drive on the interstate with cruise control on and pass trucks with 1 mph difference in speed. They don't realize they should could simply step on it to get around and then pull back in and stop blocking traffic.

People who don't use their turn signals. Is it really that difficult?

My scumbag, white-trash, trailer-park neighboors that live next door. Let's see.....three vehicles with flat tires that have not moved in months; one that has no rear tires/rims sitting on ramps; trash filled back yard; half finished front of the house; ridiculous half finished 1.5 story shed made out of used lumber; new dog they don't take car of; window air conditioner put in a hole cut into the side of their house with a sawzall; I couls go on and on.....
How do I fix this/get rid of them?????
We live in a nice middle class neighborhood, but have this eyesore that just happened to move in next to us last year, and seem happy as could be.
When their trash blows onto my property, I used to pick it up and put it in the can, now I just throw it back into their fenced in part
They suck BIG TIME!!!!!!!!
I can't wait to leave S.D.

I would say if you were down here in Texas, a few cans of hungy termites placed close to their shanty might help expedite their timely relocation......

How bout the people that drive 90 mph in the snow. When I lived in Boston they would drive 5 mph in the rain and 50 mph in the snow. Go figure. Last ice storm that hit here I had slid off the road due to a sheet of ice. While I was waithing on my brother to come pull me out an Izuzu Rodeo came through the curve at around 40 MPH. The road was 1" solid Ice. 4WD will help you go but it wont help you Woah. You will just slide farther.

How about people that thier gas-guzzling Explorer will allow them to maintain control in any situation, whether it be passing people at 90 MPH on a freeway, then swerving across 3 lanes without slowing down, or come within 2 inches of you're bumper and feel that they can stop instantaneously all while talking on their cell phone?

Next, the people that for some reason feel that a loaded Pete doing 75MPH is going slower than a BMW doing 75 MPH and they MUST pass the truck, then blast around the truck, only to pull right in front of him and slow down even more.

I try to obey the speed limits mainly because I can, I enjoy leaving a little early just so I don't have to be in a rush. I don't really mind being in the right lanebbehind a semi sometimes, because at least I know that he isn't going to try to pull off anything stupid in a loaded rig, and sometimes you can even strike up a conversation on the CB and where they've been and where they're headed.

All to say, I wish people would slow dowand take it ea y sometimes.
