Shit that annoys you

[BC.]

^^^^They’d still park right up to it….and you still wouldn’t be able to get in behind to get your crap out/in….I call it the Steaux special…..happens all the time.

If they don’t get the point after I ask nicely/ or something sarcastic…Just have to pull up a little to at least be able to get into it……

Yes…open your door as you pull in/ to let the guy parking next to you that you’d like a little room to boot up….most get the point.

Let's bring this all together; skiing and annoyances.

My latest is when the lot jockey at the local hill parks the car behind me so close I can barely get my tailgate down. Look, I get it; they're trying to cram as many people into the lot as possible. FFS, give a little room there, guy.

If it's the guy pulling in beside me, I open the door gently but also claiming a little space. They usually get it, I wave thanks. Screw the guy saying park closer. If a door can touch its neighbor, that's too close.
I say hey there new kid on the block, it's Wyoming. We like our space, a little elbow room. And that little bit of room for comfort won't cost more than maybe 5 cars per 100 or some shit.

Dude behind me, I may ask him to inch back, peeps are usually cool with that. If not, I'll pull forward a foot or so. Fuck 'em.

My annoyance at the hill:
New lifties who have no understanding of how to load an 8 passenger gondola with a long line waiting at opening.
One guy loading parties by size, from a full maze. Not filling in with singles, a line with 25 in it. first 5 cars go up, 6, 5, 5, 4,5.

3 other lifties standing behind him, not correcting him or doing any type of support by helping with the single backfilling.
2 look like new babybosses, and when peeps start complaining about it, they tell them to relax and let him figure it out. A fine example of leading from behind.
No one waiting in a lift line for an hour wants to be told to relax on the first pow day of the season and after 3+ weeks of 5 groomed runs.

A lifty that knows how to load a lift as efficiently and comfortably as possible, given conditions, and who can manage a full maze of skiers that requires a major merge zone so that no one gets the shaft, or sweeps pow off chairs before ya load yer butts, that's a top shelf worker right there.

And yet, all 3 skillz? are absolutely simple to accomplish. Damn near remedial.

People that don’t smile in pictures (and aren’t on the spectrum). What is so wrong with you?

My Yiddish grandmother, the sweetest, kindest person I've ever known, always looked like she was mad at the world in pictures. Of course if you look at old pictures nobody is smiling. Getting your picture taken was a serious matter.

It makes you look like you're either in the Marines or a psycho.

You know how people used to use software to snipe things on Ebay? They need something like that for camping reservations and stuff.

Honestly, I'm kinda surprised there's not a Chrome extension for that.

I thought that was why popular sites do get booked immediately when reservations open.

[toast2266]

Not sure if this works everywhere, but I think the trick to booking campgrounds is to book starting 2-3 days before you actually want to get there, and then cancel / modify the trip to remove the first couple days that you won't be there. You'll pay a nominal fee for the cancelation, but you'll get the dates you want. This is also why popular weekends are always 99% booked up the second reservations come available.

*to be clear, I think this is douchey, but it's also the inevitable consequence of a lot of easily accessed dispersed camping getting shut down and everyone + their mother owning camper vans.

Huh... Why didn't I think of that? O ya, try not to be a douche.

Been thinking about this thread all day:

Grown ass women using the word “yummy.” E.g. “There’s a really yummy vegan Asian fusion restaurant in Studio City that you have to try.”

Fuck off. Yummy? What are you, three? My five year old at least says delicious.

To be fair, I'm way more annoyed by all the words that followed "yummy"...

Our LG refrigerator shit the bed. Right when in laws are in town, and I can’t buy parts or get someone out here to diagnose if it’s something I can’t fix.
And I can only really use one arm, so packing everything in coolers/etc has been kind of a bitch.
Ah, this modern world!

Bullshit.

Reminds me I need to replace my anode rod, although tempted to let the old one die to make sure to get a new gas one before CA bans natural gas.

Add also "tummy" and "jelly" for jealous.
