Every motherfucker who makes sudden mid-block u-turns on my busy residential street, usually just bc they don't feel like going all the way around a block. This is some kind of Queens thing, I see it all the time here.

the 2 ppl who insist on crossing my street ~less than 100ft from traffic lights~ every single morning in fairly heavy traffic & all i want to do is yell WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU ARE YOU TRYING TO GET RUN OVER
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 16 September 2017 04:08 (six years ago) link
inexcusable except for possible excuse: could it be that given the over-ear positioning of the headphones, the wearer is not and has not ever been aware of the existence of flashing light?

Nah, the 3yo insists on everyone taking their shoes off when they come in (often quite... angrily), but doesn't clean the floor herself. And, indeed, contributes extensively to its uncleanliness.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 19 September 2017 14:50 (six years ago) link
when I was a 3 year old i insisted all my friends keep their shoes on and if their shoes weren't sufficiently muddy, made them go outside and dirty them up first

People who reach over/under/around the sneeze guard at e.g. Chipotle in order to point at what they want (disgusting savageness increases in direct proportion to the distance between their hand and the food). For extra tall folks, leaning their head WAAY over the sneeze guard earns the same yellow card

make that 'in direct proportion to the lack of distance', maybe!

In Austin, TX, ride share buses are coordinated and operated by the same public metro system that runs the regular buses and commuter trains.

People who support shitty beer halls where the tap selection is boring and the food is clearly all Sysco ingredients and the prices are silly and there’s no service, just a window and a bar and a bunch of tables and you get to be your own waiter, except unlike Europe they discourage kids and dogs

I’m totally okay with a real continental Biergarten setup but the local attempts at same are fucking pathetic, at least all the new ones I’ve been to. It was a lot more enjoyable before these things got hip. I’m old.

damn Tom, those sound dire
I realized a while ago that the local german-style place (all the mock-bavarian food and munich beers you could want) with long tables and such is more indebted to the hofbrauhaus chain restaurants than anything else, but even as a pastiche it's enjoyable. it's hard to turn down the possibility of liters of beer and a waitress asking if you could use more bratwurst, imo
― mh, Saturday, 21 October 2017 14:56 (six years ago) link
yeah wait staff is good. just a little extra expenditure to make it less obvious that the owner is trying to keep expenses down to the absolute possible minimum in every category while pushing a >~300% markup on all the comestibles.
at some I've been to in Europe you go to various stalls and queue up for your pretzels, your wurst, or whatever (pizza!) and most of them will also refill your beer too - but it's super chill and affordable and obviously family-friendly, and the lines move fast.
the "super chill and affordable and family friendly" triple is rare and precious in the US ime

drivers who, upon emerging from a traffic jam, immediately speed up to 80+mph and start tailgating and weaving in and out of lanes to make up for lost time (or to relieve pent-up frustration?) at a point where the traffic flow hasn't yet stabilized. apparently these people are too dimwitted to realize (or too sociopathic to care?) that their behavior is increasing the likelihood of additional blocked traffic by forcing other drivers to slam on their brakes or switch lanes to avoid colliding with their impulsive, steel-encased asses. it's especially egregious when the cause of the jam was a serious accident ('oh hey, let's see how more people we can kill!')
