oh no

nothing innocuous makes me angry

you have a knack for making innocuous things maddening though ;)

I dunno, buy pajamas with a better flap positioning or without a flap? I somehow have worn boxers without stuff falling out all the time, although I've had the occasional pair where that's an issue

or stop wearing tight pants to sleep, that could help

Most of my pajamas I have received as gifts. I don't even know how I got so goddamn many. It's not the tightness. It's the loose construction of the fly. I should probably just toss most of them and buy ones I like.

Do the rest of you get like TONS of pajamas as gifts from people? Now that I think about it, I'm sorta IA about that.

I wish I got tons of pajamas as gifts. I love pajamas.

Don't wear clothes while you sleep.

ooo er

I've got one set of pajamas and I never wear them.

my nightgowns are mostly cheapo dresses i've bought from ross or kohl's.

i'm wearing one right now (hi from home). it's a knee-length dress that shrunk considerably after being washed too many times.

when people treat what are clearly marked one-lane streets with cracks down the middle of the pavement as two-lane streets

when motorcyclists ride down the stripes between the lanes instead of in the actual lanes.

Now see, there's a street that I go down each day with a crack in the middle serving as a defacto stripe, and yet, there are folks straying across it all the time.

It's not clearly marked as a one-way though people seem to think it's one, despite the row of cars parked on either side in both directions.

when motorcyclists ride down the stripes between the lanes instead of in the actual lanes.

This is not innocuous in the least and is horrifyingly unsafe. My uncle, who is a big motorcycle guy, is constantly railing against riders that do this and how they give all motorcycle riders a bad rep.

^^^ Illegal in all US states except California. Bikers claim it's safe to do and reduces incidence of rear-end crashes. It's, like, a controversial deal in a lot of places: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lane_splitting

xp

that reminds me, another innocuous thing that makes me irrationally angry is bike lane abuse - mopeds in bike lane, going the wrong direction in the bike lane, running the wrong direction in the bike lane and not getting onto the sidewalk to let bicyclists riding the right way in the bike lane through, etc

ugh, i didn't know it was actually legal in my state. that's horrifying. the roads are unsafe enough with all the crazy drivers.

Cyclists on the sidewalk, but I think we've already been down that path.

i guess my pet peeve is people in general who don't know where they're supposed to take their respective modes of transportation...this is a college town and lots of students will straight up walk in the street, this is infuriating

Do the rest of you get like TONS of pajamas as gifts from people?

Hah, about every other year my mom would give me pajama pants for Christmas, but that seemed to cease a couple years after I completely moved out.

My guilty admission is that my favorite pajama pants were a gift from an ex-girlfriend a number of years ago and I really should get some new ones

I like wearing pyjamas for sitting around in, but I hate wearing them to bed. I like huge old tshirts. I get too hot wearing a flannel suit to bed.

I notice that when motorcyclists ride in groups of two or more, it's never single-file in a lane. One will hug the outside of the lane, one the inside. Is there a safety-related reason for this? I only ask because the outside-lane-huggers are fucking impossible to pass (and the inside-huggers come really close to clipping mirrors when they pass).

I normally am a t-shirt/boxers dude but I have been letting the temperature go lower at night to conserve energy

NZA I think that just sort of hits on this general pet theory of mine, that the world would be an infinitely better place if people just took the time to be aware of their surroundings and acted accordingly. This covers a lot of the stuff we've touched on over the last few days - stopping in the middle of a circulation path, blocking aisles, etc etc. Just, I don't know, fucking pay attention when you are around other people and we'll all get along much better.

completely OTM

not that I don't slip up or even sometimes just pull a dick move, but mostly I pay attention!

jeez that train and the bad dream drugs

carl, is you name IRL Jacob Singer?

that's p. rational tho

irrationally, i am angered by:
ppl who wear polo shirts buttoned all the way up
ppl who don't move their arms while walking

ppl who wear polo shirts buttoned all the way up

oh jeeze, yeah, this is such a bad look

golfers in particular seem to struggle w/this

I can actually see the reasoning there -- they spend so much time out in the sun, I'm sure they want to cover up as much as possible. A lot of senior tour players even turn their collars up. They're probably getting melanomas hacked off nonstop between events.

Golfers make me irrationally angry.

xp nah, they're just being weird. that last button isn't going to save them from skin cancer.

i'm aware of this due to the match play championship being on all day at work. hooray

golfers can't use sunscreen?

People looking over my shoulder when I am typing something online. Could be a reply to an email, ILX post, blog post etc...

Folders can't wear crew necks and sun hats? Gofers can't find something to do inside?

Leaving those two delightful autocorrect corrections.

As soon as Kayne starts buttoning the top button of his polo, you all will be doing it then.

ppl who don't move their arms while walking

Trying to remember--there was a sitcom episode about this. Seinfeld? The non-arm-swinger is made to cry about her 'condition' and she runs away with her arms held stiffly by her sides.

non-arm swinging is weird. always reminds me of charm-school girls balancing books on their heads.

There is/are some dumb dickchz/s on my floor who don't close the outer door of the gate elevator all the way, which makes the elevator stay on this floor until someone boards it and takes it down.

There is modern, automatic-door elevator on the other side of the building, but the point is that you have to be an oblivious asshole to not notice that leaving the door ajar makes the car stick!

Like jvc said - fucking be aware of your surroundings! Just look around you.

A few weeks ago the gate elevator was stuck and I rode the other one to my floor w/ a guy who was moaning about the gate elevator "never working." I said, "it's because people don't close the door all the way - whatta buncha jerks amirite?" but he didn't get it. He just whined about the building being ancient and management not replacing it with a real elevator.
