  1. Airport security \u2013 Every time I take off my shoes for the scanning machine I count that as a victory for terrorists.<\/li>\n
  2. People who stand on the left (or passing lane) on moving sidewalks. Get out of the way people!<\/li>\n
  3. Arena security. Come on does anyone really believe that the issue is security and not just a way to prevent people from sneaking in their own food?<\/li>\n
  4. Drivers who do not use turn signals. When I think of all the turns I could have made earlier if people were signaling I resent the time I\u2019ve lost.<\/li>\n
  5. Airports that charge for wi-fi. I might not mind so much if they didn\u2019t price it based on an imaginary 24-hours of use when people are likely not to use it for more than an hour or so.<\/li>\n
  6. Expensive hotels that charge for wi-fi. The cheap hotels give it away for free so why to the expensive ones charge?<\/li>\n
  7. Programming languages with semi-colons. They\u2019re just a crutch for compiler writers anyway.<\/li>\n
  8. Command line interfaces that do not use complete, correctly spelled English language words.<\/li>\n
  9. People who block traffic in supermarket isles. Stand behind your cart not along side it people!<\/li>\n
  10. People who stop inside doorways. Move out of the way so other people can come though.<\/li>\n
  11. Places that do not warn people of allergens in the food. Especially nuts and peanuts! One of these places is going to make my wife a rich widow one of these days.<\/li>\n
  12. People who share too much private\/personal information too loudly in public places.<\/li>\n
  13. Prices that also say \u201cplus tax\u201d without saying how much tax will be added. Trust me when I tell you that in a place 1,000 miles and several states from home I have no clue what the local sales tax is.<\/li>\n
  14. Airport food prices. There is no reason a tiny \u201cpersonal pizza\u201d should cost as much as an extra large pizza that feeds three people at home does. The same is true for food concessions at sporting or entertainment events.<\/li>\n
  15. Places that automatically put mayonnaise and\/or mustard on hamburgers. Or anything that is not easily taken off. If you\u2019re going to add stuff that is hard to remove it should be clearly stated so I can ask that you not do it.<\/li>\n
  16. Fountain beverages that include more ice than beverage. The stuff comes out of the dispenser plenty cold enough for me. If I\u2019d wanted a glass of ice I would have ordered one.<\/li>\n
  17. LINUX \u2013 it\u2019s a virus which is why it doesn\u2019t \u201cneed\u201d an anti-virus program. There are not many complaints I have about operating systems that LINUX doesn\u2019t implement.<\/li>\n
  18. People who are regularly late for appointments. Once in a while things happen but if you are late a lot it is your fault and wastes my time.<\/li>\n
  19. People who toss their cigarette buts out their car windows. That\u2019s just gross.<\/li>\n
  20. People who don\u2019t take time to air out after smoking. The smoke sticks to people like nauseating perfume for several minutes after the smoking stops.\u00a0 Stand out in the cold and windy until it clears so I don\u2019t have to smell it.<\/li>\n
  21. Coffee breath. Even worse when mixed with smoker\u2019s breath. Take a mint after coffee \u2013 thanks!<\/li>\n
  22. Drunks. Everyone is entitled to screw up and get drunk once and end up in law firm DUI charges<\/a>. After that if you don\u2019t know your limit you are an idiot who should not drink at all.<\/li>\n
  23. Cursing. If your vocabulary is so limited that you need to use \u201ccussing\u201d words work on your vocabulary. Or grow up. Or both.<\/li>\n
  24. Too much perfume. The best smelling person is a clean person. Perfume too often replaces one bad smell with another that is even more irritating to the nose.<\/li>\n
  25. Getting stuck in heavy traffic. I\u2019m learning to be patient in it but it is still annoying as all get out.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
