There are 10 traffic lights in West Virginia?
This is just in one town.

However in the town where I spend most of my childhood we only had one red light.
I remember in basic training the drill sgt was walking around asking each private what our town was famous for...my ever smart alec mouth said...only having one red light.
Towards the end of basic training. We had already graduated but had a few days before going to our next duty station (schooling) and the drill sgt was relaxed and just was asking us what we told our parents about him.
I told him...I told my parents you looked like the blanking devil lol I think it kind of hurt his feelings haha.

Getting in the car and forgetting keys are still in jeans pocket. With jeans you damn near either have to get out of the car or put the seat back.

Pretentious people, like others have mentioned. It's especially bad on Facebook with a few of my 'friends'. A lot of them I went to high school 25 years ago, so aren't really friends. And how people's lives are perfect, I'm like yeah, I know you, your a freaking tragedy

Coming to an intersection with drivers that do not understand basic right of way rules. For example, I'm making a left turn and the driver across from me has their right turn signal on and is waving at me like I'm the moron in the equation.

Oh, and people who think it's funny to let out nostril-killers in an elevator.

Yes, absolutely. People driving slow in the left lane completely unaware they are causing a huge pile up behind them.

Earlier this year I was driving down a four lane road. Two lanes on each side of a raised median. This lady in the right lane, decided to u-turn at a medium break right across my lane without even looking! She is lucky I didn't t-bone her at 55mph!

Why are you only going 55 in the fast lane??????? Maybe you were slowing her up! :laugh:

I usually cruse down that road at 70mph, but I had just turned onto it. (it's not an interstate, the interstate runs parallel to it) I use this road because the NY state highway patrol are on the interstate and no cops go on this road because most of it is in NY but it runs into Connecticut with no way to really turn except the lane breaks. So most NY police don't patrol it because it goes into CT so they just don't turn down that way. (I only use it for about 4 miles till I get to another interstate highway.)

Anyhow, she slammed on her brakes right before she turned. When I saw that, I slammed on mine too. Not because I thought she was going to freaking quickly u-turn, (that would be stupid and dangerous!) but I thought maybe a deer or something was coming out of nowhere.

- feeling like you have to talk to your barber.
- saying thank you to a service person too much instead of just waiting until the end of the service.
- not knowing whether to shake a woman's hand or give her a sort of hug.
- wanting to make a clever reply but having nothing.
- making eye contact with someone twice.
- using the complete opposite word and having the person seem to understand.
- having someone watch you fail to sneeze.

A Cowboys loss
People who still think Garrett is a good coach.......
Tailgaters on the freeway
Traffic jams
People who think their mistake is my emergency
My wife wanting to "talk" when I am in the middle of something important
The music my son listens to
Micromanaging bosses
***holes driving 100 mph on the freeway weaving in and out of traffic
Copy machine jams (think Office Space)
My hair keeps falling out
and turning gray
My waist keeps growing
Edit: Bad waiters or waitresses

Calling customer service for anything and the automated system has you punch in your information. Then 30 seconds later somebody from Pakistan or the Philippines gets on the line and acts like they have none of your information and makes you do it over again to get started. Then on top of it the connection is poor and you cant understand half of what they are saying.

Working 50 hour weeks for a 40 hour week job and showing up EVERY day for work 5-10 minutes EARLY and leaving earlier than normal and traffic taking longer than normal and having your boss tell you that you need to show up on time for a salaried position. Oh, and I showed up at 8:03 this morning. That was 'late.' Again, salaried position.


When people are driving in front of you and they are loss and they decide to come to a standstill instead of veering off to the side of the road and putting their blinkers on.


Facebook political posts. Either side.


Having switched from Brighthouse Cable (excellent) to Comcast (sucks beyond belief).


Seeing screen passes to Jason Witten.


My SiriusXM not coming in when driving on the west side of town. Only place I've ever had this problem.

ABBA themed? Does that mean that someone dressed as a goat...er, I mean Stevie Nicks?

Jackasses who mow their grass into the road.

The over-dramatization of everything. ("Your 3 year old's finger painting is AMAZING!!!)

Getting up early to go fishing to find an easterly wind.

Estimating you have maybe 3k miles left on your tires before heading out on 5k mile trip.

Flip flops in a quiet office environment.

That's just a start.

Facebook in general - LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME....Great, who ******* cares!

I'm not even going to grrr on traffic. I live 12.5 miles from work and when school is in session it takes me almost an hour to get to work. When school is out for the summer or holidays it takes me 20-25 minutes. It's insane.

People who say they want to buy your stuff on Craigslist or on Letgo and then never show up. What's with the common courtesy of letting me know you changed your mind so I know not to wait around for your idiot self? I've got a crap ton of stuff I'm trying to sell because I'm selling my house and moving into an apartment (or a much smaller place) so I have a lot of things I need to get rid of and I don't have time for that crap.

oh one more - people butchering how they speak by using the word, like, all the time. " I was like, I'm gonna do this, I'm like no way ". Kids do it and you have to crush it while they are young. There is nothing more unintelligent sounding, than adult who does this.

Note: This has nothing to do with likes received at COWBOYSZONE!!

Worse than likes: Using "literally" all of the time and in the wrong way.
