Shit that annoys you

[Kenny Satch]

Gondola rides with people who want to talk and make new friends. Give me awkward silence any day...

People who think just cause I talk to them in Gondola ride that I'm trying to make a new friend.
Awkward

[BmillsSkier]

People who, when they talk on the phone, sound like they're chewing on the phone/make disgusting breathing noises.

I'm at a pub trying to get a late lunch. This 20 year old twit has not stopped talking on her IPhone since I walked in. She took my drink order by taking the phone away from her ear for 3 secs. She just waited a 4 top the same way. I know she is 20 because she just told her friend on the phone about her 21st bday party. She is really nice actually but fuckin delusional about service. Wtf

Throw your empty drink at her when you want another. That should get her attention.

I got $10 if you give her a shit tip because of the lousy service, she'll blame you.

Obsequious servers of either gender who think being smarmy can cover up doing a shitty job.

Things I want out of a server, in order: 1) polite efficient service, 2) see #1

shit tip?

no tip if I'm at that table - and I'll tell her why

[iceman]

That's my deal too. I'm somewhat germ enthusiastic...

I personally am not all that enthusiastic about germs.

where the hell is the pub owner? here's my old guy rant - all this technology has just made more people stupid IMO when it comes to basic conversation/interaction/communication skills. if they can't hold a phone in their hands they're lost. there, that was a nice broad stroke of calling today's youth ignorant. though I know they're intelligent as hell.......that's the part that pisses me off. they should know better.

As someone who flies a shit-ton, the only thing worse that having to put your carry-on in an overhead 5 rows back and having to battle everyone when the plane lands to get back to it

I don't understand why everyone has to crowd into the fucking aisle as soon as the seatbelt light goes off. You'd think there's some kind of award for removing your bag from the overhead the fastest or something. If your bag is five rows back you've got zero chance of getting to it.

I go to this place often with friends. The place has a big local following that don't know or care about real service anyway. The owner does not give a shit and loves to play the " don't like it don't come back" act. I am friends with her as well somehow. The food is actually good. I told the last server at this place that every table of tourists you wait on is like a free interview with someone that could change your life. They could help you get out of this town that you hate. She looked at me with a blank stare and walked away. So i declined lunch and sat with my drink. Then servers 2 friends roll in and the fun got started. These three aired out shit that was gold. Everybody was pissed at the local ski resort for not hiring them back. They also hate anybody they ever worked for. Girl at bar: Can you believe my ex husband got married already, what an asshole" Girl 2: "Didnt you cheat on him soon after you got married". Girl 1: "fuck him, he had no idea about that." Server: "yea, fuck him". It went on till I left. I am afraid for these people. Really. Girl 1 was a smokeshow btw.

I don't fly all that often but when I do I'm perfectly happy to just remain seated and let the thundering herd trample each other 'til the aisle clears out. Staying in the seat seems preferable to being sandwiched between strangers who most likely neither smell nor look anything like Emma Watson after a bubble bath.

True that Chainsaw. But if you sitting in the aisle the stink factor is high with your head at ass level. Most people are filthy animals when they travel.

Bars that only serve draft beer in a pint glass. I rarely find a bar anymore that gives you the option of a smaller glass, like a 10 oz pilsner ( Insert lady's glass joke here). Especially with the 20+ tap beer mania. I'd prolly sample more beers that way and sometimes I don't feel like downing a pint of suds.

Honestly this sounds like alot of places in the area, care to name names?


Companies/stores that post their hours online (easy to check when i am in a meeting) but then close at completely different times.

You sure you aren't looking for wine coolers? A decent nerd beer bar should offer tasters of one small size or another these days.

shit tip/no tip, whatever, 90% of them will still view it as your problem. reason #99 shit sucks.

I've been to a few places that offer "flights" like wine, but then I have 5 or six little glasses that sit there getting warm. I'd like to simply taste a beer, which most places are willing to give you a sip, and then get a shorter glass of that beer. Rinse and repeat for the next glass of beer.

Just a smaller glass, that's all.

Haaa welcome to SoVt KRP. PM you. The good news is 4 properties just traded in town and I know 2 of em will be owned by actual skiers. Good times ahead.

[MMP]

in case the hearse didn't tip you off, the long line of cars with flags and their lights on and hazards flashing may be an indication that the line of cars you're trying to cut into is a FUCKING FUNERAL PROCESSION!!

goddamn you fucking idiots with no respect for anything. dumbfucks

So what?!... dudes not going to get deader.

I'll counter with what seems to be an alarming trend- bars that have "pint glasses" that are blatantly short of a full pint. Usually have a super thick bottom so you don't notice right away.
