Driving, leaned far enough over into the passengers side to be able to clean the window.

Unwarranted disrespect from a child or teen, towards any adult.
Parents that are obviously intimidated and overrun by a child.
People that will not listen to my response when they ask a question.
Rudeness in any form.
Slackers (as in their jobs)
Apathy from anyone that deals with the public in their profession.
Running out of, or discovering that you have none of anything required in the middle of making a meal.

That about sums it up for me............

I couldn't make it any more clearer for me....thats spot on Muffy! I have one or two additions. Consider the following:

Drunken inbred swine who think its ok to beat their wives and kids, then turn around and blow their paychecks.
People - ANYONE who drives around in their car with a cell phone pasted to their ears.
Friday nights without a glass of The Macallan, Balvenie, or whatever blows my hair back!
Politicians
A veteran whose service is forgotten or simply dismissed

My current one is when I am really busy, (ok there hasnt been too much of that lately, but....), no matter when I need the computer(s) to do their stuff and quickly, they sort of stall, spinning hour glasses and other "computer thinking about it" icons, and then the classic after about 15 mins of crawling, "Windows updates, computer will shut down in 10 mins, or shutdown and re-start now".........so Bill Gates, (and Steve Jobs) habitually take control of MY computer and wont let me have it back until THEY have finished playing with it.

I tried switching off the automatic updates, Norton said NO, switch them back on, I removed Norton (with a fight) installed AVG and now I dont get Bill taking over every couple of weeks like I used to, but he still has a snoop every now and then.

The Rise of the Machines.........I am just waiting for mine to become self aware........

I never did use automatic updates, but I do admit, then I sometimes forget to go over and do it manually. For antivirus I use Avast, seems to work okay. As far as the wait icons, it seems when you first install windows it works real fast, then over time it goes goofy and starts slowing down at times. I suppose reinstalling windows would clear it up, but who wants to go through that and reinstall all the programs?

Hey NBC, are you sure you had`nt walked into a Peter Sellers movie, The Pink (very apt) Panther......

"Where is your lassence for the minky?"
"I do not need a lassence for the minky"
"That is where you`re wrong my friend"

or

"Does your durgh bit?"
"No my Dog does not bite"
Dod savages Sellers/Clueso
"I thought you said your durgh does not bit"
"That is not my dog"

you should have said, "ah, the melk - it ees over there with the M `n` X"
