LOL I couldn't agree more. Always had that problem with all of the cars I've owned until we recently bought our new Dodge Ram 1500. This truck on the otherhand, holds a bit more than a gallon! LOL
But currently... Office manager, same level manager as me but unfortunately in the project approval loop, who feels that no good project should happen anytime soon. Everything goes to her desk, which I believe either has a direct connection to a Black Hole or the Bermuda Triangle, and is never seen again...
I was out of the corporate world for 17 years. Didn't miss it a bit. Now I remember why.

1)people driving on the hwy/frwy in the left lane at the same speed as the people in the right! 2)people pulling out (just turning their "right to turn" light on)to pass just as you are about to pass them so you have to slow down 20 mph and then wait 10 minutes for them to pass at 1 mph faster than the car they are passing..

Did the black hole in the Bermuda triangle have a paper shredder to?
People who post antagonistic messages telling us how horribly useless and inaccurate our advice is because we're not professionals, then posting obviously bad info/advice themselves.
I'm a hobbyist. Not a professional. Don't be hatin'!

Buying complex used parts from other hobbists that turn out to be junk.

Politics mixed with classic cars.... Unless it's really light and makes you smile(example, Goran's political post). If you read a bunch of junk about politics and then you go out and work on your beloved classic car you are bound to mess it up! Politics should be the 'third rail' on classic car boards. And if you touch this 'third rail' a tazer should pop out of your keyboard and zap you in the forehead!
ROFL Jim...I like that tazer idea Not much bothers me, probably cuz Ive been married long enough to become numb to annoying things lol. But I do find myself getting agitated occasionally while watching TV late at night and finding like 100+ channels of "Paid Programming"...those [censored] infomercials should be illegal!

every day on commercials on TV and radio, when people say "if you are like me...."...bugs the heck out of me , i had to learn correct English b/c it was my second language...no wonder everybody speaks wrong...
It IS : if you are like I (am)...finish the darn sentence and youll hear how wrong it sounds...only time its 'like me' is if you ask if someone LIKES you..."do you like me"? its not "is he like me, dumb"? it is "is he like I (am), Dumb"

I park way out away from other cars and as I’m getting out of the car, with the driver's side door open, some idiot is waiting for me to close the door so he can park next to me! Arrg “Hey buddy there’s like 100 other spots!!!”
It must be just me, because when I’m at the gas pump someone always parks behind me and waits for me to finish while there’s 5 other open pumps!! I'll personally never wait behind someone; I’ll drive around to another pump if one is available.
Since I’m on a roll here: This happened again to me at Home Depot tonight! In the automated check out there are four open and working automated registers, ALL AVAIABLE. While I’m scanning my items this guy walks up behind me with his handful of items and waits for me to finish!! I purposely glance at the other three OPEN registers as to say.. “um hey bud there are THREE other registers open, no waiting!!” He doesn’t get the hint And waits for me.
This is such a pet peeve of mine that I think I’ll name it and take it for a walk!!
ponchoshop, it would be fine if I could only see the one with the correct rims. I don't know why that bugs me, but it drives me nuts. LOL I see these nice cars and then bang, there it sits on these flashy, gaudy chrome rims that just look goofy (IMO of course). LOL
Mike, the poor b@astard probably had no clue how to run thru one of those scanners.....he was just watching ya even tho they have theose lil helpers there...ya...still anoying
Yesterday going to the bank...no parking spots , 3 cars are dbl parked with hazards blinking...theres a truck just outside the doors...2 guys in it ,and its in 2 spots! as I walk by , I say " do you really need two spots? theres people double parking because they cant get a spot" he goes: "Oh Im sorry".... do you think he moved?
NO! he sat there while I was in line iside,. for at least 5 more minutes, then he backs up and leaves... WTH?
and ...a block from my house theres an intersection ,and if you come from the west...you have 3 lanes...one left turn only, one sraight ONLY, and one right turn ONLY!
for me coming that way I can go straight or right to my house, same distance, so if theres red I turn right (right on red)...OFTEN some idiot passes all the mifddle lane car ,ignoring the sign "Right turn only", goes to rthe front and sits there and waits for green ,so he/she can go straight....and Im behind blinking to turn right...honk, honk...honk...HONK!!HONK!!!! they just sit there ignoring traffic behind ..." oh ,I made a mistake, I got to go straight! And I dont give s CHIT about everybodyu else"...why not turn right , go the 50 yds and cross over in the blvd and turn right again??? next time Im getting out with a baseball bat in hand...
I really hate it when people can't seem to bother using the directional lights. Almost every day I run the risk of crashing my car into some moron changing lanes without properly advertising it. Actually, these days people seem to use their horns more than the blinkers...
Another pet peeve of mine involves dog s**t, but that's another story.
what bothers me is know it all people,grumpy people,negative people and lazy people. also people who don't watch when they open there car or truck door and ding your vehicle.
