Those blue pump up air beds. Got a downy fabric on one side. Instruments of torture. They always deflate at least twice during the night, puncture very easily too. They draw heat from the body, rather than insulating it, so if you haven't woken up from the cold, the deflation leaving you on the ground probably will. But should neither of these completely destroy your nights rest, the rash the sweat inducing downy fabric gives you, certainly will. It gets you in an evil triple-pincer movement.

Lint clinging to my black shirt.

My coffee maker, which is usually very convenient and good, randomly brewing a weak cup about once a week. No reason. Same amount of coffee and water in it as always, but it comes out looking like tea instead of strong black coffee.

People at work who do no work whatsoever and just stand by and around my desk all day long yapping. Thank gawd for headphones and a smartphone.

People who want to make conversation with me on the train and/or bus when they obviously can see I am wearing headphones which is the universal sign for "leave me alone".

DesFIP,my step dad is from New Jersey and even he admits the drivers in Memphis are worse...plus a large percentage drive without license or insurance making it even more fun in an accident. Hill,I know anywhere with a large number of senior citizen drivers can be interesting but at least they knew how to drive at some point in their lives and remember from time to time how to do it...far too many in Memphis never learned how to drive correctly in the first place....

If you're riding so fast in a pedestrian area that my standing still suddenly causes you to park you bike in the crack of my arse you're not riding safely. Ring a bell at me and I'm likely to poke it up your arse, it's really that simple.


As I said, the Greenbelt is for pretty much all non-motorized traffic...foot traffic and wheels alike. If you aren't willing to share the pathway I'd be more than happy to run you over. It's really THAT simple.


I didn't say I wasn't willing to share the pathway, but it sounds like you've already decided you have more of a right to it with your threats of causing injury. Hit me with your bike and you'll have to have the framework surgically removed from your hostile arse. It's really THAT simple.

If we lived fairly close by, I'd swear you had my old neighbors. We lived in a duplex, them in the other half, and I swear our bedroom window was going to shatter one day from all their front door slamming. We've had some awful neighbors but that family won second place (first place is reserved for an even worse family).

I haven't counted how many times I've shaken my head in agreement reading this thread, but it has been a lot.

Another one of mine: overly perky people first thing in the morning who seem bent on converting everyone to perkiness. Keep your overly-blinding sunshine away until I've at least finished my coffee.

Oh, and before I forget-the asshole who thinks its funny to go into the dollar store and ask for a price check. It was funny when the comedian on cable did it ten years ago. It isn't funny now, it's fucking annoying, especially when my back is killing me and I just want to finish what I was doing and go home.
