    The day I retired I set an auto reply that said something like "As of EOB today I will be retired.  If you expect me to reply to an email after 10:00 am today, you will be disappointed."  At the 3:00

What the fuck?!?

That's a lot of money for a special victim's unit captain. 

Sidewalk?  We don’t care. Gonna stand in the street with our dogs.

Just tested positive for Covid for the 3rd time.  Each time it's been pretty mild, considering that I have a chronic lung condition, but if you play Russian Roulette enough times, eventually the bullet is going to come up.  I was around my crazy QAnon Aunt yesterday.  I should probably call her and tell her, but then I would have to listen to her tell me about her secret stash of Ivermectin, and if I would just come to get some I would be magically cured.

That's what the horn is for.  I have busted up a few street conventions by just staying on the horn and creeping right up to the offenders.  It's entertaining as hell.

People who pull their shopping carts around the store from the front. I don't know why, it just really irks me. 

The scroll wheel on my mouse is jumpy. Scroll down down down, jump up, up, down down, stop, down down.

I think it's because my kids are using it with their sticky fingers. But it's annoying as hell.

This bugs the shit out of me. I see people doing this while driving too. When did this become the most popular way to talk on the phone?

Honestly— with text and texting apps, I get a bit surly when I overhear any phone conversation in public. Something that you should have stopped doing in 2014. Anything that actually needs talk, go find a place to have that talk. I don’t want to hear it. 

More and more shit is shipping in pointless plastic bags that are often completely pointless and redundant. It'll be cardboard shipping box, paperboard packaging, then product inside of a zip-top bag that almost certainly isn't getting fucking recycled.

Had a dude pull this shit at our favorite watering hole this past Friday at HH.  Bar was about half full, everyone minding their own business when he pulls this shit. 

He was a couple of stools down from me and I just looked at him and said "dude, really?"  He kinda gave an apologetic wave and took it outside.  After a few minutes, he came back in, apologized for being a douche and everyone continued our Friday.  Sometimes I think people are just so self absorbed, they forget themselves. 

Not all that trivial:

 

I think a card shimmer is how you even out a wobbly table.

The thing I've never understood about this is why you'd even want other people to hear your conversation.

People listening to podcasts or music on phones in public without headphones also deserve to die in a fire.

LinkedIN?

People who will type the word "fixing" and mean "about to." I can tolerate if that's the way you speak casually, but something about seeing it typed out fucking annoys the hell out of me. Same to a lesser extent with seeing "yall" written. And this is from someone who was born in Texas and lived here my entire life. 

Putting the twisty tie for the bread on the counter and then somehow can’t find it for a moment or two.  

People who put twisty ties back on bread.

You don't return your shopping cart to the cart corral either, do you?

It's a knot. The only issue is with a new loaf when only a couple of slices have been taken out. After that, twist the bag and put a knot. The end of the bag is then folded under the loaf of bread.

People who tie knots in the bread bag when there is a perfectly good twist tie available.

I tend to put the twisty tie on the bag, not on the bread, but whatever works for you.

What's wrong with this? That's a wide street and they aren't taking up more space than the car that's parked on it two doors down.

I've gotten more and more "cars suck" as I get older. The shit you see on sidewalks is mind-numbing until you realize how much priority is given to cars versus actual people. Our walk to school with the kid includes bushes taking over half the walk... a telephone pole literally in the middle of the walkway... and narrow spots where you can't walk side by side while the residential street could literally fit four lanes.

Sidewalks are there for a reason.  Use them.  As a group stand in the street with traffic coming through.  Brilliant idea. 
 

Or, perhaps, I will start driving on the sidewalk when people are actually walking on them.  
 

How will that work out?

Very neighborly of you. 

They ain't standing on a highway. It's a residential street where the speed limit is what, 30 mph? There's no other traffic. They aren't in the middle of the street. 

As least you posted in the spirit of the thread title.

It’s a picture from a particular moment.  Perhaps I should have taken a video.  There was traffic.   I came back 15 minutes later and they were still there. Had not budged.  
 

Standing in the street is not a good idea.  Move over to the sidewalk provided for pedestrian traffic.  
 

It is not too difficult for most.

About a year ago a woman at the table next to me and my friends pulled this. She honest to god discussed her colonoscopy results/ongoing anal issues with the caller.

Whole sports bar was like WTF.

I'm team deadshank on this one.  Especially if they have dogs.  I've seen people gabbing like this and their dog is just wandering on leash into the middle of the road.  Pay attention fuckwads.

lost internet while on the can and pondered whether bowels even work without internet anymore

1. when the sock you're wearing bunches up in your shoes.  it fucking kills me. 

2. when you snip off the little plastic string holding up the clothing tags, but one of the ends gets caught up in the garment.  particularly socks.

These engagement photos where the couple is on the summit of Everest or the middle of the Mojave desert, and the girl is feigning shock when the guy drops to his knee.  As if the third person following them around with a camera didn't tip her off.

or when the end of it goes flying off somewhere, you can't find it, and then step on it sticking right up in the middle of the night

I remember friends when i was a kid, their socks would scrunch up in their shoes like cotton roast beef, and they didnt care one iota. Dont know how people can stand that.
