    How much goddamned fragrance there is in everyday household items. Got some Kirkland Laundry pods free with a coupon, and washed my towels with them over the weekend. I can small that shit the instant I walk into the ensuite. Gross.

    Why so much? Hand soap is the same way if you aren't careful. Dish soap too, which really baffles me. Why do my dishes need to be perfumed?
    Fuck all fragrance.

    Hey, I never said people shouldn't wear deodorant. I'm all for that.

    I firmly believe that fragrance is no substitute for bathing. If that makes me "smelly" then I apparently don't know what that word means.

    When I travel 300+km to meet vehicle sellers on their timeline and location and then they show up fifteen minutes to two hours late with almost no heads up. My time should have as much respect as theirs.

    People not respecting the value of my time is easily the quickest way to make me lose my mind on someone.

    People who park at a gas pump too far back, so the people behind them can't get close enough to fuel up.

    Street parking... people who don't park right up to the sign at the beginning and ending of a particular zone... congratulations, you just took up 2 parking spaces, shit-for-brains.

    People who need to move into the middle lane of a 3-lane freeway the moment they get on it regardless of how busy the road is. All 3 lanes are filled, all 3 lanes are moving, there is no left turn for the next 500 miles, why?

    Yeah, WtF is up with those?!? They were supposed to be an emergency beacon for a stranded or crashed bus, not a "well, I'd feel better if" bullshit safety feature stuck on all the time.
    Now it's just misleading. Are you in fucking distress with a bus full of kids? Are you hostages? How many dead kids are in that bus with the hijackers!?!

    So you're Al Pacino in The Irishman?

    But yeah I agree... Late people with no heads up is very frustrating.

    That wasn't why the busses got those. It's supposed to be for low visibility situations. I THINK the individual drivers don't get a choice, but they are directed by the supervisors.

    Dunno, I've seen two busses in a row from the same company, one with the strobe on and one with it off.

    I can only assume that they have virtually zero idea it is even on. When the light is on at 3:00 in the afternoon on a bluebird day, it's kind of telling

    I see like 4 buses in my neighborhood every day and they always have them on. So annoying.
