Stupid Pet Peeves

And when the woman reports her stolen property to police they don't have the option to tell her to **** off. It's her property and when the police ask for it the dad needs to give it to them. If he would have thought ahead he could have smashed it, then given it back. At that point it's not criminal.

Genius.

Purposefully destroying someone else's property isn't criminal?
 
OK time to get this thread back on track...
First world problems and all, ya know?

So here's my most recent pet peeve:
those gigantic oversized bath towels they have in hotels

they are totally unwieldy - maybe if I was 7' tall it would be useful, but not for an average-sized person - I almost fell over trying to use it.

Accidents happen...

I bet the cops had no desire to arrest him. If he hands them a smashed up phone and says "Oops, I dropped it." I'm sure they take it, give it back to the mom and she can sue him in civil court if she wants.

Oh I know. I was just playing the pragmatist. If it were me, I would have "accidentally" dropped it in the kitchen sink full of dish water or something.
 
It's probably already been listed, but I'm too lazy to look back at all 123 pages. People who stand with their carts in the isles of grocery stores and won't move for anyone. People who stand outside of a doorway and have their discussion there instead of moving to let people out. Basically people being Cra Cra
 
People who compare politicians like Obama and more recently Trump to Hitler. You know, because they both have or will have the blood of 5 million plus on their hands. Smh.
 
Dogs that look like small horses.


And that Dog, Monkey, Baby commercial that was on last night. What the hell was THAT???

Piggybacking the Robotic Rubio thing.....rehearsed prayers at church. We had a good six minute closing prayer last Sunday with all the perfect churchy words sprinkled in.....problem was....she kept forgetting what she had practiced and would stop mid-sentence and repeat paragraphs and stuff. It was really awkward. The average prayer in sacrament meeting is probably like 30 seconds....maybe 45......a minute....I don't know....but fairly short. She could've nailed a minute of memorized prayer probably and nobody would have noticed, but her pretentiousness made it obvious she had been practicing all week.

I know I've said this one before, but if you're turning right onto a multi-lane road and there is a green left-turn arrow feeding left-turners onto the road you're turning right onto MAKE THE DAMN TURN! It's the ****ing law! You have 10000000000% the right away to turn into the right lane. You have 0% the right to hold up people behind you because you lack driving confidence.

Turns at intersections happen at around 10-15mph. If someone turning left wanted to break the law and go into a non-corresponding lane they will have more than enough time to see that you are turning into YOUR lane and that they will need to turn into their lane. No one will die in horrible fender bender.

I take my turn 100% of the time and no one has ever decided to just go ahead and run into me even though they wanted to break the law and swing wide.

Bunch of scared, no-confidence, no-skill drivers out there who sit and watch left turners when they should be making their turn.

And if you are a left turner who swings wide, you're an *** and you're breaking the law.

When we have green left arrows out here in NJ, oncoming traffic has a red light. They can't make a right-hand turn at said red light without stopping first and doing their thing.

Yeah, you have to stop, but then you can turn.

In Utah the law is that everyone must turn into their corresponding lane. The left turners can't pick whatever lane they want, they have to turn onto the left lane.
 
It's not illegal in Utah to change lanes in the intersection despite what many think.

I have confidence in myself, but I KNOW that people always swing wide on their left turns. I'd rather give up the right of way than be involved in an accident, even if I wouldn't be at fault.
