    Ok so both you and Seth have a pet peeve about people wasting other's time at public service counters. Great articulation guys
    Sheesh, it's just a pet peeve, not a life changing occurrence.

    Back on topic... People who take light hearted threads too seriously, and turn them into frivolous arguments.

    To be fair, most of Beyond are 'Old Men on a Porch' that hate and talk shit about everything. This isn't the early 2000s Beyond anymore lol. EVERYONE on this forum is old.

    Another Pet Peeve:

    When I'm on lunch or in the washroom and a co-worker strikes asks me work related questions or asks me to do something work related. I'm taking a break, get out of my face.

    Yeah, because you're so important you can't wait a little bit longer. Poor you, woe is me.


    ....

    I'll add one:
    - People who complain about stupid bullshit like the 2 examples above.

    Flame suit on
    I have to agree with Seth on the seniors point. Guess who are the most impatient people at Denny’s on a Sunday morning? Yea that’s right, the seniors. After a week of wasting everyone else’s time they don’t want someone ruining it by wasting theirs hahaha.

    People who buy lottery tickets on a Friday during rush hour when everyone is filling up gas. Fuck. Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck. Fuck that person.



    That's some passive aggressive shit right there, I can guarantee you precisely 100% of people pick up on that.

    Understood.

    You just want to make a quick purchase (the whole fucking point of a convenience store), and then the person in front of you takes out that proverbial lottery ticket envelope. FaaaaK! Never mind self driving cars, we need self serving kiosks for the lottery playing people.

    Again, just politely interrupt and ask them why they don't choose 1-2-3-4-5-6 for their numbers (and yes, I've done that dozens of times lol). The only answer I have ever received, is a look of, "those numbers will never come up you idiot".

    J-hop:

    You admit to eating at Denny's? Only dirty peasants would ever eat at a Denny's and similar establishments

    It's too bad gas pumps didn't have some way to pay without going inside.

    I'm not talking about taking a little longer to count out their change lol.

    I'm talking about being in line at a bank or a store, and they seem to think that the teller wants to hear all about their grandkids and or the weather. They're somehow oblivious that other people are waiting. Heck, even when the teller is trying to get them to leave by something like, "Oh that's great, have a nice day", they still keep talking.
    Further:

    These people are lonely and require a cat or a wet cloth for some sort of emotional nourishment.

    It's called dying ffs, and in of all of the rest of life forms, the old are left to die, as sustaining them, would hurt the whole.

    But, here we are preventing the old from dying a natural death, and in the most idiotic religious extreme, they try to prevent a sentient being that chooses something over their own agony.

    The backwards irony of it all, is that religious people keep talking about the heaven upon death, but instead of killing themselves to get to that paradise, they kill others. WTF?

    So anyway Disoblige, this is how you make a light hearted discussion into something teeth nashing worthy.

    I sure hope its 100%, because swank is right and the alternative no matter how you answer it nicely is they think you're an idiot. Better to get your retaliation in first and one up them with that gem of a line.

    People who play the lottery and scratch tickets in general are a pet peeve of mine. It's called the stupid tax for a reason.

    I absolutely love Mario's lottery thread, it's been going on for what? 10 years?

    YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO WIN!

    Even worse, people who complain about taxes, but buy lottery tickets.

    All true, but since you love your Nissan, everything you say will be dismissed.

    Not a pet peeve but something that amuses me - beyond members who are in their 30's or even 40's thinking they're old men. Shit, 80 is an easily attainable age these days. At 30 or 40 something, there's a good chance you're not even done half your life yet. Old men, pffft, my dad is old but he can be called that because he is 82. I guess it's okay though for beyond members to consider themselves old men because it's less yelling at the clouds for me then.
    Will fuck off, again.

    Meh, I have no real vices/bad habits so a couple times a month I buy a lotto ticket.

    The thought of winning is fun and its cheap entertainment- this is the extent of my gambling in life so whatever. People spend money on far worse things and based on the chart above its a investment in Alberta hahaha

    Cancer isn't picky with respect to age although one's vices can probably increase the odds. Never the less, 50 or 60 something isn't old unless you let it be.
