    This damned commercial.  Subaru is usually spot-on at the heartstrings shit, but this one just pisses me off.

    How long does it take to learn to keep your dog secure?  Build a fence or something, you idiot.

    I wanna slap her.

    wow. gotta say I'm pretty surprised at this reaction. I think it's pretty cute. 
    It is, and I'm a sucker for dogs.  Still, using the cuteness as a distraction from basic responsibility irks me.

    And the eating thing - I keep away from communal shit.  People can be nasty little piggies sometimes.

    I don’t get to hung up on pot luck food.   We all get exposed to germs at some point. Sometimes I wonder if workers washed their hands at fast food restaurants because I will see them cleaning with a mop or something when I get there, but then I just tell myself in all the times I have been to restaurants disgusting stuff happens in the kitchen and I just happened to notice it this time.

    Bike lanes annoy me.   I hope ours get used more but rush hour traffic is terrible because we have to sit there like idiots not being able to turn left when our direction has the green when there isn’t a bike in sight.

    I hate when people say “atm machine” or “PIN number.” It’s just atm or pin! No one ever says “what’s your ETA arrival?” So why does everyone say “PIN number”?

    FWIW, my mom has always called them a pop-a-dollar, so I find that on the rare time that I refer to an ATM, that's generally what I call it. :lol:

    I hate drivers  that think by speeding close to the back of my car would make me go over the speed limit to accommodate  their  penis extension  of a car. I just slow right  down and love it.

    Teaching my daughter how to drive.  She has her temporary permit.  The other day, she went off on this same issue.  She told me that they can wait.  Made me laugh.

    Oh for fuck's sake, yes!  Just one of the many reasons I won't drive with my mom anymore (she's also nearing 90; how the hell is this possible?).

    And at lights, stopping three car lengths behind the one in front.  Argh!

    Yeah, that really bugs me too. It simply doesn't really work, but they keep doing it.

    UGH!!!! My mother does this ALL the time, and she does it in the fucking left hand lane no less. I have tried over and over to try and talk to her about how unbelievably inconsiderate this is, but she simply refuses to see it that way and is so weirdly stubborn about it, it makes me want to just freak out. :anguished:

    That drives me insane. A coffee order can't get any easier.

    I have the same problem when I ask for a bagel - not sliced or toasted.  Just straight up.  They look at me confused.  So, you don't want it sliced or toasted?  No.  Just as is.
