Annoying Social Habits of people you've met

Another one I just remembered, people who never have a clue what they're going to buy when they are standing in line in a fast food restaurant eg. McDonalds. They always go up to the counter and then decide on something which when they receive it, they reject it and say they want something else.

I hate that guy who is always behind me in the line at the McDonald's who is a jerk because the people in front of him aren't conducting their affairs fast enough for him. Because, you know, he must be a super-important person who has to have his stuff right away. But if he was so important, what the hell is he doing at McDonald's?

No, you join the line because you know what you are going to buy. You don't join a line for movie tickets and don't know what movie you'll be seeing. Practically the same thing is happening here. I don't really care if the person infront has other 'affairs' but as long as they know what they're buying, I'm happy.
 
Exactly. If you don't know what you want, you stand towards the back of the "designated line area" and allow others ahead of you until you know what you want, in which case you may proceed up to the counter.

That's entirely too logical and sadly a fair number of people in this world are anything but.
 
My family does that. It annoys me to no end having them stand there asking every kid what they want (and the kids having to decide) at the register. I hate going through drive-thrus for the same reason if I have more than one person at the car, especially since you have little choice but to think about it at the microphone thing.

Reminds me of another one, I hate it when you simply cannot understand the cashier on the other side of the microphone. Sometimes they have really bad accents or it seems like they have a lisp. Really annoying when you're in a rush.
 
So, I know this one guy. If there's a conversation, and he is involved, it has to be about him. It hasn't even have to be something positive about, as long as it's about him. He usually reside to talking about how people say his sister's so hot. Or how he met a girl at a party and ALMOST got anywhere with her. Or how much he loves Heineken.

Guess what dude, I don't give a **** and neither does someone else.

That's why I like the places that have the board that you can look at before you get to the microphone.
 
No, you join the line because you know what you are going to buy.

Next time I am in McDonald's I will definitely have to watch out for the sign that states, "No Shoes, No Shirt, Not sure of order = no service".

Dude, it's McDonald's...

I don't care about that. As long as you get to the register and you know what you are going to buy, that is ok. If there is no line, well that's a different matter. If there is a giant line, you're at the front, I don't see why you wouldn't have already chosen what to buy. And other people have also agreed with me.

Thats funny because I just saw one yesterday :lol: seriously
 
:indiff: Something tells me "the pic" is going to come up soon.

As far as I know he dosen't go to Maccas much, more like Hungry Jacks (Burger King for some) for him :ouch:.

So you saw a guy with no shoes, no shirt, didn't know what he was buying, and didn't get any service? :dunce:
 
Sometimes it's the level of nerdisms in a group. This weekend I was with my missus and a few fellow friends, about 15 in all, at the one friend's bachelor pad. Just kinda the usual chatting all around, and I was showing my missus a model car that the pad's owner had. Beautiful detail for a 1:43rd scale car and it was $350.

Two of the people heard me talking about how it had the vacuum lines running to the hood scoops and instantly start mocking me, picking at me, etecetera. The one friends informs me I might have taken my enthusiasm a bit far.


See, what I don't get here is the fact that I apparently interrupted a very serious and sober discussion about the race of a non-existant being from Star Wars.


It's that whole "Your stuff is ****, and my **** is stuff" mentality. "Anything you do pales in comparison to me and mine". Seriously. What the hell.


Cheers,

I would have never noticed these as a kid. There should be some sarcastic psychology book giving names to all these little social ticks. Makes you wonder how some of these ppl have friends who respect them.

1.The One Upper: No matter what you've done or how interesting a story or event is that happened to you, that person has not only done it but done it to the extreme. Avoid socializing with this person at all cost. They make **** so awkward, it's like after you tell a story or something interesting, they always tell one that blows your story out of the water and you kinda just sit there with a forced smile on your face and say "wow, really?" and pretend you're impressed.


2.Its always irked me when getting AIM messages from people every day, and the conversation is always EXACTLY the same

Buddy: Sup
Me: Yo
Buddy: Whats goin on?
Me: Not much, you?
Buddy: Same here

We have this convo every single day. Seriously, if we don't have anything relevant to talk about, why waste time doing the same old song and dance every day?

3.People who say "like" after every other word.

4.Picking your nose in front of people you know like it's somehow ok.

5. Soccer moms driving an SUV/monstrous pickup during rush hour, sipping their mochaccino late from Starbucks while talking on their bluetooth headset and holding up traffic because they have no freaking clue what's going on around them.

6. Being a mooch and never offering to pay for anything when going out in groups.

7.Stealing beer

8.Going to EB games and having random socially inept retards try to strike up a conversation with me about every generic inane nerdy thing that I could give two figs about(read: Magic, naruto, bleach, Metal Gear Solid 4, the latest Final Fantasy)about, but given about 15 minutes would probably know better than them anyway. Just because I buy the occasional videogame does not automatically make us friends. Even moreso if it's an employee doing this under false pretenses only to try and pre-sell some stupid crap I have no interest in. And again even moreso if it's the fat "girl gamer" they hired to give all the little pre-pubescent boys a stiffy when they go to the cash and have their moms ring up Naruto:Ultimate Puerile Powerfantasy Horse---- 17.


9. Almost running me over and not even realizing it while you're talking on your freaking cell phone.


And last but SO true: The ugly fat chick who thinks she's hot cause her friends are. NO. NO NO NO. You are the D.U.F.F. The Designated Ugly Fat Friend. Get it in your (fat & ugly) head. You're only there to make your hot friends appear hotter, not cause you're anywhere nearly as hot as them. Go away.

More to come


1, 2, 4, 6, and 7 all apply to me...

here's a few from me:

1. racist(anti-american) British kids on XBOX LIVE who piss you off to no goddamn end
2. old people driving fast, expensive cars(people in their 90's who are driving freaking Maseratis at 20- mph, when they should be in a Yugo GV)
3. teachers who think they can make jokes about sex in class and think it's ok(especially the gay teachers).
4. people who say your opinion is wrong(it's youropinion, it's not wrong to you, right?).
5. people who hate jewish people(i LOATHE people like that with a 🤬 passion).

and finally, people who think they can drift just because their car was made in Japan.
 
I got a strange urge just then to do "the pic" V.2 in a Maccas.

umm, sorry for the double post(SERIOUSLY!!), but what is "the pic"?????????

if no-one wants to tell me in this thread, PM me(also, sorry for going off-topic... i'm in school, so i really am not supposed to be on here...)

If he is going to drive 20mpg, what difference does it make what he is driving? Maybe he really likes a Maserati. Maybe he worked his ass of for 40 years to finally get in a financial position to buy one. The guy should be (and is, by the way) allowed to drive whatever he is licensed to drive, regardless of how you feel about it.

Speaking of which, people who wear headphones that are loud enough where others can hear their music. Isn't that the point of having a boombox?

Yep. Whatever. At least you'll have your hearing at 50 years old.
