jermaine jenas is a disgusting savage

People who don't think small gestures of politeness in public are worth a tacit nod in appreciation at the least are disgusting savages.

Mr Que

Sorry, Nick is absolutely OTM here. A brief acknowledgment/thanks to the person who held the door for you is all that separates mankind from beasts that eat their own poop.

The United States Steel Corporation

All males between the ages of 7 and 17 and a huge proportion of them after this age.

People who cut you up at a junction and then GET IN THE WRONG FUCKING LANE AND DO IT AGAIN AT THE NEXT JUNCTION are disgusting savages.

Yeah, I've held the age of 17, for boys, as the age of absolute peak disgusting savagery.

For ages.

Motorway drivers who hog the middle lane even when the inside lane is empty for the next half mile.

the Na'vi

People who write articles comparing the question "is god dead?" to the question "is indie dead?" are disgusting savages.

Oh good grief middle-lane hoggers; they're almost always, in my experience, middle-aged men in 4x4s too, not little old ladies in Fiat 500s. YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER, AREA-MANAGER-MAN, YOU SPEND ENOUGH TIME ON THE MWAY; BUT OH NO, YOU THINK YOU FUCKING OWN IT. Disgusting savages.

People who don't think small gestures of politeness in public are worth a tacit nod in appreciation at the least are disgusting savages.

a tacit nod or a verbal thank you. WHICH ONE IS IT SO I CAN NO LONGER BE EITHER DISGUSTING OR A SAVAGE THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

People who can't just let shit slide.

I just said "express gratitude" initially; tacit nod is fine, but verbal thanks always appreciated.

what about a smile? is a smile ok? or must it be a tacit nod

I demand a full-on reacharound and sloppy kiss.

DONE AND DONE

Fuck me. If I hold the door open for you, fuck me.

disgusting savages

i will fuck you but i am warning you i fuck like a disgusting savage who doesn't thank people after he fucks them

if you fuck someone competently you shouldn't have to thank them

People who leave their pants, their dissertation, and their newspapers on top of the shelving in the philosophy section of the library as evidence that they've been living in the building are disgusting savages.

Project managers

Damn. That makes me a disgusting savage on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.

tramps

People who charge down the middle of the pavement/footpath and refuse to add four inches to their journey by moving slightly to the side for anyone else.

People who wait at the landing when you are climbing the stairs because passing on the stairs is bad luck or some such nonsense, and expect you to do the same.

^ yes but only if the stairs are clearly wide enough for two people to pass each other on

people in the subway station who sit there and spit loogies into the exact same spot over and over again

people who clip their fingernails on public transportation

(xposts to ledge) I am probably one of those savages on narrow staircases as I am fat and clumsy and think that brushing into people is generally best avoided. Not sure if I expect anyone else to do anything though except just not elbow me too forcefully if it could be avoided by pausing for half a second.

Mr Que otm

dude at bus stop yesterday who walked right up to the wastebin, paused, and then instead of using the bin projectile-spat chewing gum over the pavement about 3 feet away, you are a disgusting savage, but I guess you were aiming for disgusting savagehood as anything else would just be uncool (see N. Vague's males-up-to-17-and-poss-beyond post)

the public sector

Dudes who crop dust you at work, you are disgusting savages (altho I admit it's kind of funny when it isn't me)

-- people who walk three-abreast down the sidewalk.
-- people on the phone in public having a loud argument (somehow it doesn't bother me as much when both people are actually present, but there's something really self-indulgent and obnoxious about screaming into a handset).
-- gun owners who can't stop talking about and posting pictures online of all their guns. i don't care if you own guns, but why do i have to hear about them?

s.b.d.

not only is that a thing that happens, it is a thing one of my coworkers would do 24/7 if he could fart at will

sounds truly like a disgusting savage to me

every time he walks by and engages you in small talk, it's a signal to immediately leave and grab a cup of coffee because your cube will be uninhabitable for a minute or two

fucking awful, unless he does it to someone else in which case it's kind of hilarious

That's horrible, is it a hilarious prank or because there is something wrong with him that he can't stand still for 3 minutes w/o it happening?

It's because it's a hilarious prank. This is the same dude who likes to go into the bathroom and shout "ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR BLUMPKIN?" at the guys in the stalls.

OK, disgusting savage status assured!

Do we have an "annoying coworkers who you find entertaining despite yourself" thread?

There should be! I have worked with two different creepy guys who attempted to charm ladies 40 years their junior with hands on the shoulder and long dull anecdotes, but with the power of my magical ugly ray both of them have ignored me studiously and visibly panicked whenever I said hi to them, i.e. I got to find them sad and funny instead of actively disturbing like all the other female staff did

-- gun owners who can't stop talking about and posting pictures online of all their guns. i don't care if you own guns, but why do i have to hear about them?

this is because, in the end, there really isn't shit to do with guns other than shoot people with them. i bought one about 12 years ago, and found it pretty boring to have. i took it out a few times to shoot it and even that was a little boring. i ended up selling it pretty soon after.

you heard it here first: guns r boring

4. people who never leave the house

people on public transport are just animals. and although i would never dare generalize about this, of course, in my experience it just so happens that public transport users of the female variety have been particularly guilty of disgusting savagery.

people who stand in front of the condiment station at coffee shops, tasting their coffee after each time they put a little of something new in it.

People who rush onto elevators without waiting for anyone to get off are the most disgusting savages. People who get off elevators and linger so the doors shut before anyone can get on are the second most disgusting savages.

Some teenage boy (with his friends) suddenly shouted really loudly in my face while passing me by so I would be surprised. I was of course. so much so that I jumped. And then laughed. Afterwards my husband said it was disgusting to do such a thing. I said I just lolled. Then I realized: fuck, he thinks I'm old and easily surprised. lolol

Haha, no: I put up signs detailing how many reams make a tree and how many trees each cluster consumes a year - these are not enviromentalists.

They're disgusting savages.

Anyone onboard any city bus, with those eating sunflower seeds and spitting them onto the flower being the most disgusting savages of the lot.

While we're at it, people who sit in the aisle seat on an even moderately full bus/train. I constantly fantasize about kicking these subhumans to death.

Spitting them onto the FLOOR. Disgusting. xpost

Nick, I am going to rip off this idea something chronic (wasted paper is endemic in our student PC clusters).

On a related note: people who eat a full KFC meal in the above clusters and then stuff the greasy box and bone matter into the paper recycling bins are, imo, the most disgusting savages of them all.

Bloggers

aisle seat sitters are scum - tbh I'd often rather stand than go through the harrumphing, muttering and bag-wrestling that accompanies a polite request to use the "spare" seat.

^^ true dat, most people who request aisle seating are disgusting savages throughout my interactions with them

yeah yeah KBP, "in response to" then. I know yr shopping bags need that seat more than me, or an oap, or a pregnant woman, or someone on crutches.

The worst are OAPs who sit in aisle seats. "Can I sit in that seat please?" "I'M AN OAP!!!!!!" they screech. Fucking harpies.

further savages: bus drivers who see you running to get onto the bus and then close the doors and pull away as you reach the entrance. When I am rich enough to buy a rocket propelled grenade launcher, or Predator style minigun, they will be the first target acquired.

People in the workplace who, evidently incapable of using a loo brush, leave the porcelain spattered with cack.
Equally, people who use a loo brush while the main body of cack is still in the water, resulting in a loo brush heavily festooned with a papier mache-like crust of shitty bog roll.

People who ignore the one way signs in supermarket carparks because it means they can exit the carpark about ten seconds quicker than driving into the correct lane. Especially when they refuse to budge when I'm driving down the lane that they are coming the wrong way up.

Hi, is it savage to make changes to the temperature of a busy office w/o asking? Maybe I am overly talkative in my need to ask people if they mind windows being opened or the heating being on, but the fan heater is noisy and makes the floor vibrate and makes the atmosphere v. dry and stuffy, and it drives me nuts that this thing is unilaterally controlled by a woman whose idea of "cold" is about 10 degrees above everyone else's

xpost this is true but supermarket car park designers seem to delight in hiding the one-way signs and exit signs in places that can only be seen after you've given up and randomly picked a lane to go down

I hear that...in my old office the temperature controller would literally wear a fleece and shiver during an august heatwave while the rest of us begged and pleaded for ventilation, our words garbled as we drowned in thick sweat, our tongues shrivelled to pellets with the dehydration.

disgusting savages - middle-aged men with superficially cacophonous teenage boy-racer cars who spend every sodding evening revving their engines in the car park while we're trying to get a two-year-old to sleep.

even more disgusting savagery - fit and healthy people who write to the newspaper full of righteous indignation that some busybody asked them not to park in the disabled space at the supermarket. "why should I walk another ten feet, just because I can? it's a free country. political correctness gone mad."

this is a constant thing in our office, to the letter as you've described. there should be someone in your floor/building responsible for the environmental conditions covering this- if one person is consistently turning it up or down (ours is frequently set at 26C) then you should probably have a word.

Or all go to work in Bermuda shorts, Hawaian shirts, sombreros etc

i am pretty much always the coldest person in a warm office, sorry for being a savage

geting to work in bermuda shorts when it's 1.5C outside- no small feat.

good point, forgot flip flops for yr small feet

they only look small cos it's cold.......

Sorry harbl! Actually I feel kind of bad about this because I thought I was always the coldest person in a given room, so it is kind of amazing to me to find this happening.

(Also I work somewhere with no dress code so I spend all winter wearing many layers, giant sloppy sweatshirt etc - I appreciate that smarter dress often requires women to freeze themselves while men sweat under smart jackets and button shirts)

smarter dress often requires women to freeze themselves

? genuinely confused here.

women have way more leeway wrt smart dress

ha i don't really care, tbh i agree the cold person shouldn't be controlling the temp
i loved working somewhere with no dress code too, that really helped

no dress code = I work from home

Yeah I guess I sort of did make that up, tbh haven't tried to dress "smart" at work since working a place with a no-trousers-for-women code, which was COLD in the winter! Also I hate skirts so that didn't last long. Women's work trousers/blouses are often pretty thin too but yeah, there is more layering potential there.

Damn this thread for making me suspect coworker "crop dusts" on his way out to lunch (everyone else eats in the office), but maybe it's just that his packed lunch always smells unholy terrible

The chuckleheads who run a barber shop just down the road from me are disgusting savages. At Christmas they covered the entire building with lights, blow-up santas and snowmen, small xmas trees - sticking out perpendicular from the walls - and assorted plastic festive tat.
And they still haven't taken it down. Hilarious. In fact they've recently added to it with a large Union Jack flag and Help For Heroes banners.

Filthy, degenerate scum.

I like to pretend my English is sufficient, but not in this case. You mean they let others... Oh fuck, I really don't get it.

i.e. people with piles of shopping that cheat and use multiple baskets so that they can join the express/handbaskets-only queue.

I'm surprised I haven't thought of doing that myself before.

Surely the till staff might spot this skullduggery though and reject them? In principle, they are scum, but I cannot see this kind of savagery being easily achieved irl - the time taken to decant goods from trolley to baskets would surely negate the wait time saved too?

this thread is kinda like all the other ilx threads rolled into one

I've never seen anyone doing the decanting thing at a till, but people putting 11 items, OR A WHOLE FUCKING TROLLEY, through at the 10 items or fewer aisle are almost as disgusting a bunch of savages as the till staff who don't set fire to the fuckers but rather just let them get away with being disgusting savages.

I have never needed more than one basket, but surely BASKETS ONLY doesn't imply ONE BASKET ONLY. 10 items or fewer is a different queue.

nah it totally implies that, it's for people with less stuff than a trolley-full.

Ooooh, good point by Suzy, even if it is against the spirit of the queue.

If I had to argue the point in the field I'm sure I would prevail (I have successfully argued that the extra 5lbs in my transatlantic luggage should pass without charge because combined weight of luggage + me is still 150 lbs. lighter than the man served before me before we even discuss his belongings).

When peeved, I tend to go literal for LOLs. Example: when snippily told by some minion 'I'm afraid that isn't possible' I have been known to say 'feel the fear and do it anyway'.

Till staff want to sit, scan stuff, earn money, go home. Till staff do not want to say "excuse me sir I think you may have too many items" and risk having the entire queue held up by a dick shouting at everyone about what an outrage it is.

Strangely I am unbothered by minor infractions of airline rules, because airlines make a lot of money out of being hugely inconvenient to the customer, whereas in the supermarket it's the other customers who are inconvenienced.

(though I have wondered before now when carrying 11 items including 2 of the same product whether this counts - I decided not in the end but would've found it pretty jobsworthy if I had tried it and been called on it)

yes it counts get out of my queue

If the two items are a BOGOF it might only count as the one that's paid for.

nope out of my queue

tbh if you go up to the item number limit you are taking the piss a bit. The queue shd be called "sandwich, bag of crisps, drink, newspaper, fuck off".

I have had about nine items before, but in a trolley instead of a basket, and I have gone to the slow queue because I am too cowardly to confront THE SYSTEM.

those who created a system in which, when you want to contact a company's after sales service you reach a call center located on the other side of the world with people on the phone who don't have a clue about anything and make it impossible to get an answer/solution to your problem but it's useless yelling at because it's not their fault. a system in which the companies are virtually irresponsible.
the people who created that system are DS...

People who select hold music are invariably disgusting savages

Protip: if you want to avoid that and you're in the UK, just check for a number the company makes available to its local customers calling to deal with shit from outside Britain. This number will usually be an identifiable UK land line number answered by a real company employee, not some subcontractor or offshore call centre person.

pretty much every job i've ever had has been listed here in the category 'ds'.

re: above, about the 10-items scofflaws, i saw a brassy cashier get lippy with a dotty old lady who had a cart full of bread and big bags of potatoes and i don't remember what all, but obviously more than 10 items. unfortunately the dotty lady didn't even seem to understand the questions -- "Uh, how MANY ITEMS DO YOU HAVE, exactly?" -- so the scorn was lost on her and she just continued piling her groceries up until the cashier sort of sighed and started ringing them up, glaring the whole time. but i was glad the teller at least made the effort.

People who do that thing where they quote another post but strike out most of the text to hilariously denounce a wider group than the original post intended to

as tempting as it is, in the case of the above post

ppl who post long, varied lists of albums w/no artist names

Or youtube clips with no preamble or explanation which looks pretty irritating with images off.

Ah yes, don't know if ogmor meant in text or picture form, but people who answer an ILM question with a series of album covers I've never seen before with no artist/title on, all linked from Amazon so that even if you click Properties it just says "___zzzamazon2349582398.jpg" or something

People who stack the supermarket conveyor belt like Jenga: you are not going to get your stuff scanned any faster, but the top layer is going to fall on the floor or into my shopping, and if the bottles you have put upright (hello, the conveyor belt has about 6 notices saying not to put bottles upright) balanced on top of 3 boxes of cereal crush my breakable items when they inevitably fall over, I will hate you, and then laugh, and then hate you

goddamn, i do this every day.

I'd rather eat at my desk than in the cafeteria, wtf?

everybody around you can smell your food

Must've been one fragrant fucking sandwich!

yeah, if there are onions. other people in the office think nothing of reheating some leftover fish and taking it back to their desks. and it is distracting to hear someone eating a bag of chips in the next cubicle while trying to speak w/ a client over the phone or write a report

office workers who eat at their desks

What is the alternative?

people who have to have every single item of their weekly supermarket shop bagged up BEFORE they start paying.

reheating some leftover fish and taking it back to their desks.

Oh this is the truth though. Plus that fucks things up for whoever is the next to use the microwave.

Dudes aren't going to smell my onion sandwich unless they come all the way into my office.

People who don't alphabetise CD collections but do spend ages correctly tagging and sorting artwork for MP3 libraries are disgusting savages.

on office eating etiquette - i have a coworker who eats at his desk in our shared office but always throws his stank ass food out in the our trash can so i have to smell it for the next 4-5 hours. :(

Yo I eat at my desk and am careful about smells but why should I be? Disgusting savages are the rest of the obese, diabetes-ridden, arterial-stent-having co-workers who eat STRAIGHT GARBAGE every day and then complain they have reflux or they are "tired."

Plus they order Pappa John pizza on their "special days". That stuff smells like feet and tastes like ass. So much hate. Disgusting savages. Oh, uh putting a smiley on it makes it all better:)

No it doesn't.

Restaurant special! Server from Friday, you are the stupidest thing on two legs in London and YOU SUCK. For waiting 20 minutes to take our order after hassling me every 60 seconds before my friend arrived; for not mentioning which menu items were finished BEFORE we tried to order them; for taking 15 minutes to bring chips and pico gallo; for completely forgetting my friend's entree and the margaritas comped by his friend, the owner, when he arrived; for not bringing the guac/salsa/sour cream that was supposed to come with the food and when asked about it, 'it's finished' which is never a good answer at 2pm on a Friday in a Mexican restaurant open all day (and less than 100m from a market selling bucketloads of guac-ready avocados).

Basically, what should have been a lovely lunch was virtually ruined by this brain-dead oxygen thief and what made it worse is that all the other waitresses seemed to be serving their sections brilliantly. Also, the etiquette of the comped drink/dining companion's outbreak of Englishness in the face of bad service meant we couldn't really tell the owner about the travesty element of the meal.

I have this horrible urge to excuse people their inefficiencies.

And extra-berate people for their inhumanities.

"People who have TVs in dining rooms and/or kitchens are disgusting savages."

People who have a TV screen built into their fridge door take it one step beyond.

people who are first to a four-way stop and then sit there and impatiently wave at other drivers to go ahead need to have their teeth tapped out with a ball-peen hammer (/AinNYC)

Anybody who rooted for the Colts.

HEY NOW

Bus drivers that won't re-open the door for you, even if you get to the bus stop just a nanosecond after it's been shut.

People who wander up the middle of a 2-person-wide staircase (so there isn't room to pass on either side) looking at their mobile phones instead of looking where they're going

Bus drivers that won't re-open the door for you, even if you get to the bus stop just a nanosecond after it's been shut.

this is mostly a London thing, right? I get buses in other bits of the UK and the drivers wait for you if they see you running, and then give you a smile and a wink when they open the doors. In London they try to run you over when they see you coming.

Our dumbass neighbours who always take up two spaces when they park their fucking car.

I get buses in other bits of the UK and the drivers wait for you if they see you running, and then give you a smile and a wink when they open the doors.

In Brighton, they give you a smile and a wink and then just drive away without you.

When I lived somewhere with hourly buses, the bus drivers would stop for people running for them. Now I'm somewhere with more frequent buses they don't. I have only succeeded in making the driver reopen the doors to let me on once and he told me he wasn't supposed to.

Most London bus drivers will stop for a runner, provided there's been no shift of gears.

If I have to run for a bus I'll generally shout to the queue for someone to hold it, or if I see someone running for it, I'll be intentionally slow getting on so the driver can't leave, or I'll press the stop button if I can see someone about to fail at the bus run. Occasionally, if incensed enough by a driver's attempt to Charlie Brown my ride, I've been known to stand in the stop bay in front of the bus, arms crossed/face like thunder, so dude can't drive off.

I was so Charlie Browned at E&C the other week that I almost admired the bus driver for his cockiness, even though he made me look a prize twat.

The bus hadn't moved away from the stop but the doors were shut so I rapped on them and got the driver's attention. He looked at me, started to move away anyway but then stopped again after a few yards. I caught up, expecting him to open the doors but instead he decided to repeat his funny little trick - driving a few yards down the road, bringing the bus to a halt again without opening the doors. At this point I decided not to play his little game and just waved him away, but then he opened the doors and let me on, the biggest shiteating grin I've ever seen wrapped around his face.

It was exactly the kinda thing I'd do and have done with mates, so hard not to find it amusing, as fucked off as I was.

People who watched dubbed versions rather than dealing with subtitles are disgusting savages.

Dubbing completely and instantly shatters any suspension of disbelief, for me. I don't understand how people can cope with it. And if you're going to fall asleep to a movie you'll fall aslep regardless, surely?

^ but not this. I went to the proms once, having never before experienced the way that the audience applauds at the end only and not after every tune. Right at the end of one of those tunes, the default nokia went off perfectly synchronised with the last note - the collective intake of breath through clenched teeth from those disgusting savages is one of my fondest memories.

also: pedestrians who charge up to the traffic lights and press for the green man, *then* look up to see if anything's coming.

Bars and clubs that don't give you glasses of water (I think this is illegal anyways).

Throwers of still lit cigarette butts into garbage cans (how stupid are you?)

The depth of my hatred for audiences clapping along to music is unplumbable.

Clap-alongs are the apotheosis of disgusting savagery, if you ask me.

I totally applaud that sentiment.

Fuck, I was filling up with petrol a couple of weeks ago and midway through I noticed the guy sitting in the car at the pump next to mine was smoking. He rolled his window down and inch and flicked the ash out, which came swirling out and round my hand that was holding the pump. I made the mental calculation that this was probably a psycho and that my car was six inches from his door if I called him on it and he chose to get out and make something of it - so I could do nothing but hold my breath and pretend it wasn't happening. By grace I am still here.

Goes way beyond disgusting savagery, that does.

did you consider that he may simply have been a person of low intelligence?

Those who litter. Especially when that litter is dropped in the grounds of an otherwise pristinely beautiful country park, and its presence drags me out of a sylvan reverie and back into a world of savages. Disgusting, littering, savages.

Welcome to England

where "politeness" has come to mean refusal to communicate and then getting angry about it

Linked to this - people who huff and hmf.

Other side of that coin - people who deliberately pause before getting out the way, etc. I had a pal like that, would not do anyone a favour, no matter how small, without making the asker wait just on principle ('could you pass the salt?' 'give me two minutes'). It actually takes a while for that to become annoying, but my word does it drive you mad when you realise what he was up to.

It actually takes a while for that to become annoying, but my word does it drive you mad when you realise what he was up to.

This process contains worlds of pain. Not exactly savagery, but I've got a friend who WILL insert 'y'know' between almost every other word. Weirdly not noticeable at first - once you've noticed tho...

Wait wait wait but what about British deployments of 'excuse me' to mean 'excyoooze YOU' and 'sorry' to imply 'you should be, get your filthy self out of my way'.

ah now in fairness they're actually great!

I'm always bloody apologising, not in a passive aggressive way, just automatically. Really annoying. Used to bug the hell out of a Scottish friend of mine - 'What the f' are you apologising for? Stop f'ing apologising!'

A friend of mine works at a famous SF sausage joint and one Sunday I went to get a sauasage there on a lovely day. It was very, very busy and she took my order and told me to come back in 20. When I did, she was finishing a 20 sausage order two couples had made amounting to about 25 sausages and when they paid her finally and made to leave w/o tip she loudly asked them if really they intended to stiff her after all that work. They were booed so loudly that one of the dudes came back in a paid her a still lame tip. Thoroughly heartless and disgusting savages.

People who use spray deodorant in the office.

People who cut across residential lawns rather than keeping to the sidewalk. I have no problem when it's business, public, or institutional lawns, but have a little respect for other people's own personal grass, please!

Likewise I feel incredibly peevish about getting annoyed when people graze their way thru supermarkets, handing the empty wrappers to the checkout staff at the end.

It does smack of disgusting savagery tho. And it does annoy me. So what the hell.

Given that it basically involves handing your rubbish over to someone else to deal with, yeah it's pretty disgusting. Can't recall every seeing it happen meself though.

What about people walking down the up escalator and vice versa?

flip flops/bare feet on planes is the only way to fly imo. let them ~breathe~

the best way to deal with security while avoiding being a disgusting savage is to wear socks + Vans slip-ons.

i don't like it when i take off my shoes at the airport and then gets bits of things stuck to my socks, i find that savagely disgusting.

I can't wear Vans slip-ons b/c I'm not a sk8r from 1987 anymore. I wear flip-flops on every plane flight. It is seriously the best way to do this.

Able-bodied savages who take the lift to go up one flight of stairs.

hipster bicyclists with "funny" mustaches and without helmets listening to ipods who ride their vehicles on the goddamn the sidewalk / cut you off at an intersection yelling 'move' or 'watch out' or 'have some respect' from three feet away while you are struggling to carry three bags of groceries home from the supermarket

Those, definitely, and also the jogger, jogging through the park the other day, who started pushing some Italian tourists out of the way who were having a nice walk in a group in the park on a sunny day in case he had to stop jogging. Take your goddam headphones out, say excuse me if you want to get past, or just hold up a bit, go round, whatever, but don't start shoving at people! You disgusting savage.

day way day way.

okay i need to vent my spleen a little. i live in cambridge, ma, where having a car is definitely a luxury - public transportation is significantly above average. this is a pedestrian-saturated area, and there's nothing more savage and disgusting than pedantic asshole drivers who try to 'reclaim' the road (or whatever) by slavishly following the letter of the law and honking / inching forward / yelling through the window / glaring / feinting and braking at pedestrians who are straggling when the light changes, or jaywalking during a lull in traffic, or crossing a few feet from the designated crosswalk. i mean yeah, pedestrians probably shouldn't be doing some of the stuff they're doing - but they are outside, unprotected in frequently crappy weather, and trying to navigate a dense, populated, semi-confusing and occasionally dangerous situation while you, pedantic asshole driver, are sitting cushy in your largely unnecessary car possibly delayed by half a minute or so while filled with righteous, indignant, ire. big damn deal! just chill the F out, build an extra minute in your commute time, and let the walkers/joggers/bicyclists go where they need.

< / spleen>

Joggers don't ever "hold up" or "go round". They lurch right down the middle of the path towards you like wheezing tracksuited zombies, fixing you with this look of "my knees hurt too much to slow down or change direction, so you WILL get out of my way in deference to my superior lifestyle of health and fitness".

Have some respect? Seriously?

Never mind that this is the most insane example of projection I've heard for today - if a cyclist yelled that at me I'd have a very hard time not throwing a stick at his spokes.

oh yeah, reminds me-

pedestrians, particularly jaywalkers, and particularly those in groups that talk up the width of any given path.

fuck em. disgusting savages.

build an extra minute in your commute time

This is the big problem when it comes to disgusting savages though, isn't it? People just don't want to do any such thing. Why drag your ass out of bed 3 minutes earlier when you can back up traffic at every stoplight because you need the mirror to apply your eye makeup? Its so much easier to sleep in that extra 4 minutes and run your electric shaver as you drive down the expressway, rather than actually paying attention to what is going on around you.

why bother to follow the pedestrian light sequences for the same reason, though?

dear drivers, if a pedestrian is walking with their back to you and you plan to turn off down a very quiet side road right in front of them, please remember that the pedestrian has neither wing mirrors nor psychic powers - you are hard for them to see if you signal, and impossible for them to see if you don't

therefore if you don't signal and screech round the corner an inch in front of them without waiting for them you are being kinda savage imo

that "don't" made my post hard to parse, i am disgusting savage but you will hopefully get my point

dear everybody, please never leave the house

^ well yeah, I mean I'm not all pro-driver of a three ton vehicle against the guy walking, drivers along country lanes are very often DS's of the highest degree. But "drivers getting po'd at jaywalkers" I mean really?

joggers in the designated bike lane. you aren't that fast, get on the sidewalk.

I kinda really really want these, so I guess I'll be a disgusting savage when I buy these and am running so faaaast and can feel the ground.

People who are disgusting savages though, are the people who leave the sprinklers on either during or right after it rained. I'm tempted to say all people who even use sprinklers. I mean, come on, plant for your zone.

fuck drivers

But "drivers getting po'd at jaywalkers" I mean really?

be po'd at jaywalkers basically wherever you want -- except in a significantly pedestrian-heavy area that you choose to drive through when the vast majority of people are on foot in frequently inclement weather.

obviously there are layers here, but are we still talking about people walking across traffic regardless of lights, crossings, whatever? don't see what weather has to do with it

(NB I am an extremely nice and courteous driver, promise)

Aren't the bits you are choosing to drive through, erm, roads? Where cars have right of way?

I very often choose to drive on footpaths myself.
