[quote=Mattyk;921371]Apparently putting up a sign is too much to expect.

Gas station related gripe for me, I hate pulling up to a busy gas station where all the pumps are taken, yet nobody is at their car. Do that many people still pay in cash? Or are they just using the pump as a parking spot while they can go inside and shop? I'm betting more on the latter. F'ing lazy people.[/quote]

Yep thats a good one. Gotta Wawa down the street and around lunchtime its always that bullsh*t going on. People just dont care anymore

Wow. I came on to post the same thing JR

Must be something in the water.

Mine has made impossible for me to be in the same house her and her husband. No big deal now but big fights to be expected when the holidays roll around - and of course the kids don't get it.

People who state false stats as fact.

My in-laws especially my mother in law is just a royal pain in the a$$.

Currently my sister and her husband just drive us nuts. We try to get together with them in order for the children but ever plan is meet with resistance or they will make the plans then cancel at the last second; which is just a joy to explain to a 4 year old who was hoping to play with his cousins.

The biggest one of late resulted in us not speaking with them for a month. My parents for Xmas said they rent a house in Rehoboth for the summer for a week as a gift to both families. Everyone was excited on Xmas days and for a few months making plans and what not. Well come April my BIL decide he just can't go there to many homosexuals he can't expose his children to that. So after much debate my parents canceled the house and the trip is off thanks to my homophobic BIL.

I read somewhere that 93.7% of the US population does this. And also 50% of the remaining 6.3% claim to have never told a lie, while 28% of the remaining 3.15% think all stats are valid regardless of the source of the stats and the data analysis used on them. Finally 1% of the remaining people think this post was funny.

62% think statistics don't need to be proven to be true. 62% think statistics must be proven in order to be true.

.00000000001% think evidence is unnecessary for scientific research.

No, it's my wife's sister (and her husband) that are the issue.

Actually, I am pretty happy with all my other in-laws. I was actually friends with my wife's parents for a couple of years before I started dating my wife.

I have toured her house.

Any who you can add extended family vacations to the list of gear grinds as well. I hate to say it but when my trip was cancelled a small part of me was happy and a big part of me was happy that my BIL was the bad guy in all of this.
