Not to be a bitch

I don't mean to whine and snivel about petty things but since I ran into this the other day I figured I would share my top 5 things that bother me in everyday life. Before I get to that if anyone is reading out there please signup at noble poker and enter in the charity tourney I have setup for a friend of mine who has cancer. She is a great girl who doesn't deserve this crap but I figured I could try and help her out a bit to alleviate some of the expenses anyways. Thanks to Noble poker for the 250 dollar donation as well. Here is the details:

Back to my gripes.

5. Four way stops
-No one ever stops, the people that stop last go first. The guy on the left always seems to creep out first, then you get the guys who should be going waving you through.
4. Turn Signals
-Wow I did not know that a lot of vehicles were not made with these. They really should look at making this option mandatory when you buy a car.
3. Interac
-Thanks to this gadget technology has turned a 5 minute trip to the grocery store into a 5 minute trip with a 20 minute wait while people punch in numbers and wait for authorization receipts. God forbid if these machines are down.
2. Car or Computer talk
- I fix classic cars occasionally in my free time. I fix computers in my free time and program all day. The worst conversations I can have are with someone talking about either computers or cars. Its even worse that I drive a classic car that makes people automatically ask you the following questions, "What engine in that baby?" "What year is that?" and the my favorite "Oh I used to have one of those back in 1789...yeah"
1. Women and Old Ladies at Bank Machines
-I mean no offense to the fairer species worldwide but I run into this constantly. There is a 20 person lineup at the ATM. You are waiting there and it is either too hot or too cold in the area and obviously no one likes to wait. Then you notice this person who decides at the atm this would be the best time to re-organize the giant luggage bag of a purse and at the best possible place an atm counter. Spare no expense everything must be in the proper place the money in the purse wallet, the receipt in the side pocket, the card in the proper card slot of the purse wallet that was just closed but now needs to be reopened to put said card in said slot. I feel like just running up and dumping that huge bag in the middle of the lobby and saying there now you have something to do for the next hour! But I'm afraid even with my stature I could not lift said bag properly in order to actually dump all of the contents that could furnish, clothe and provide enough makeup for a small country in said bag.

Sorry that last one has been building for a while had to get it off my chest.
