<p>People who eat only the white or black half of black and white cookies.</p>
<p>People (almost always a woman) who refuse to pull out into the intersection in order to make a left-hand turn against a steady line of traffic coming at her, when the light turns red. </p>
<p>And then she does it AGAIN on the NEXT GREEN LIGHT!</p>
<p>And then she gives you the old “dirty look” etc. when you get on the horn to “encourage” her to get out there and “swim.” </p>
<p>They should outlaw drivers like her. And she thinks she’s being so “good” and “safe.” UGH!</p>
<p>Misogynists.</p>
<p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ;)</p>
<p>Those genetically disabled from discerning the love of women from the disdain of women drivers. Most often found among the feminist-females and others who find driving a challenge. 
:p</p>
<p>Good reason to ensure men do the driving whenever possible. :)</p>
<p>People who persist in finding themselves hugely amusing…when no one else does.</p>
<p>When did it get ok to take pets - esp. large dogs - into stores of all kinds? The latest were a full-grown lab and a border collie in Banana Republic. No indication that these were service animals.</p>
<p>Parallel parked cars with too much room between them, enough so that if they parked properly at least one more car could fit in. (I’m talking to you, co-workers)</p>
<p>People who don’t understand why auto insurance rates are higher for men.</p>
<p>Oh, gosh, just catching up on this thread. LOL!</p>
<p>WhistlePig, it’s not women here, it’s Canadians driving in the states</p>
<p>I don’t think females are cheaper to insure anymore, not since cell phones. At least that’s what USAA told us about rates for teenage boys and girls being the same.</p>
<p>Gotcha! And Canadian women, well THEY’RE another story yet. ;)</p>
<p>
People who fail to discern that it is only adolescent males who escalate male insurance premiums, in conjunction with the reality that thankfully, men do most of the driving when in tandem with women. And that on a “per mile” basis, adult men are dramatically better, lower cost insurance risks. </p>
<p>Whew! That was exhausting.</p>
<p>But I’m wondering … for the gals, does the concept of cost “per mile” need to be explained? 
</p>
<p>^^That’s a very annoying accumulation of assumptions^^</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You actually said this. Astonishing. </p>
<p>Observe the troglodyte in action.</p>
<p>It annoys me when customer service phone reps, who are right here in the country and not outsourced to India, Paskistan or wherever STILL cannot effectively communicate and have clear speaking voice on the phone…really, with all of the folks out there looking for work, you couldn’t find someone who can speak with clarity ?
I had to call customer service at TD Bank because my daughter’s gift Visa gift card was used for a purchase with a company who didn’t know how to enter the correct info and the rep spoke like Rosie Perez with a mouth full of marbles…ugh 20 minutes later I could not understand her attempt at communication</p>
<p>lje, I had a representative from my ex-insurance company ask ME what “religious exemption” was for my birth control. I had called 2 hours earlier and was told by a recording to call back later because they were doing “quality training”. If you REALLY can’t figure out what that is, at least put me on hold and ask your supervisor rather than the customer. <em>smh</em></p>
<p>@ romani…I think too many companies are dumbing down their staff to save money. It just doesn’t work though because they are the voice of your company and if they canot effectively represent , then it speaks poorly. We have a phone staff seasonally and I cringe when I hear from large companies what I wouldn’t accept from our our little mom and pop operation</p>
<p>lje62, I have encountered people who work for the regional office of my government agency who similarly have VERY strong Spanish accents combined with a lack of diction and a tendency to speak very quickly. They have been very nice people, and I’m sure that their language skills (in their first language!) are valuable to the agency, but a few times I have literally been unable to understand them. It’s very embarrassing. There are only so many times that one can ask for a repeat. I find that it is easier to understand people in person than on the phone, particularly if the person is wearing a headset.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m not sure what you’re saying here… you mean for her to yield in order to turn left?</p>
<p>I think he means one of those awful intersections, where your only chance to turn left is to turn left just as the light (your light) turns red. It can be done, and done well, but only if you pull out first like you mean business while the light is still green and then turn at the last second since that is your last (and only) chance.</p>
