Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

sorry "ride share bus" just sounds like that embarrassing uber thing or those buses that are only for google employees

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

All good qualx, I could've just called it a shuttle bus. Cheers man

park and ride, my friends. park and ride

i was going to say "people who dine at their gaming table" but the real problem is casino managers who condone and encourage such appalling savagery

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

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

toxic shitbags

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!')

*how many more people

(tbf most of my shitty driving experiences have been in the Greater Boston area)

People with flags in their Twitter name.

people on music message boards who type out song titles as

Song - Artist

rather than the more civilized

Artist - Song

anyone on any music message board who has ever referred to that Neutral Milk Hotel album as 'ItAOtS'

I blame Spotify.

When I upload a playlist from a text file, I still have to create a spreadsheet, cut Column A, add Column C, then put it all back into a .txt.

And I thought making sure the song didn't finish after the tape head at the end of the side began was annoying, PHEW.

People who stomp their feet when walking in apartments. No self awareness at all

My in-laws all do this, when I tell them not to they seem to treat me as a meek little mousey Englishman who has to be constantly neurotically on guard about inconveniencing other people and basically it sucks to be me.

as someone who lived underneath brutal stompers, I would have been glad to have you as an upstairs neighbor

Even my 4 year old knows not to stomp because of downstairs neighbors. Got to start them young.

Good on you Jeff ^

Just witnessed a paying customer at a restaurant receive their order, tell the staff they got called into work and couldn't eat there or take it with them. Wtf. So I asked for it and gave it to a homeless person instead

^hero

the mint has issued new $5 and $10 notes that look exactly the same to colourblind people like me. good going, fuckwits.

WELCOME TO OUR WORLD.

that confused me so much when i was there. they don’t even look green to me, just sort of beige.

I got a $100 bill last year and it was blue!

I asked the bank teller, how long have they been blue?

And she was all, 2013?

People with multicolored money are the savages here imo

Learn to read numbers

fuck a number imo

I don’t see numbers or colors. I only feel the money. Money feels a certain way, you have to get to know it. Once you find the smell, the scent of money, well, you can go anywhere in the world. You can buy a watch band from a lady in Instanbul, at the market, hand her whatever you think it’s worth. She can hand you the change and you’ll know it’s right. And then in Kinshasa the week after, for a diamond, it’s no different! The secret is not giving a shit, because you’ve ripped so many other suckers off, it doesn’t matter how much the bullshit costs. You pay twice as much and that schmuck running the leather goods kiosk goes home an hour early to have a big dinner. Or get drunk and meet someone easy. The money doesn’t care what it does. It just needs to move around. That’s all money wants to do. Once you understand that, the scent makes sense, it comes naturally to you. Counting is for people like you. People who really understand money, we just smell.

to be fair, you have to have a very high iq to understand the colour of money

People talking before, during, or after eating about how it's okay to mix up the food on the plate because "it's all going to the same place"

Any talk of digestion process at table including announcement "I'm full" please just stop you have ruined everything

People who wheel empty or near-empty shopping carts/trolleys around the cramped Italian market in my neighbourhood. Do you need to take a cart if you are just going to buy a few slices of prosciutto and a small tub of olives? Do you not recognize how difficult the critical mass of empty carts makes it to move around the store effectively, both for yourself and others?

I often see the very frail, elderly neighbourhood residents using carts, which is fine. My problem is the fit and healthy 45-year-old airheads from outside the neighbourhood who drive in, park, wheel an empty cart around, bang it into my shin or ankle a few times, buy a few slices of prosciutto and a small tub of olives, then get back in their dumb European SUVs and promptly drive into the river because they were texting.

Oh and of course they race off way too fast down my street also.

Tellers who openly judge the food you're buying and suggesting something else is better. I know this is cheap and is shit just fuck off

people who want every gap in any literary or cinematic universe explained and fleshed out.

feel like if Godfather was being released for the first time nowadays, we'd have a goddamn Godfather 1.5 to explain what happened in the 5 years between Godfathers 1 and 2, and a prequel depicting Sollozzo and Barzini conspiring to kill Vito.

o sorry *spoiler alert*

People who give you direction at work and then later correct you for doing something they intentionally asked yli to do? Was it this topsy turvy land

*what is this

lol I had that happen last year. got asked to overhaul an existing process and was given the specifics of what they wanted the new one to look like, spent months drafting it, got it blessed by our account Execs, rolled it out...and then later this year, me and my project manager got chastised for not using the old process I'd just replaced with everybody's blessing.

wtf

in other words, u otm

in your case, do you have the original request they asked you to do written down/documented so you can hoist them by their own petard?

no, it's just usually a communication or instruction given impulsively like "can you go do this and make sure not do this one thing" so, sorry to be vague, but like if you don't do that "one thing", then they go "why didn't you do the one thing?"

a larger project seems more aggravating tbh

I've found most people in the workforce that are tasked with giving instructions should never be giving anybody instructions
