[typicallistener]

this is a personal one, inasmuch as i can't think of too many other people that share this foible with me, but i can't can't can't can't can not fucking stand having to repeat myself for any reason whatsoever. doubly so if i have to repeat myself to an elderly person

I'll tell ya what I find irksome.

Elderly woman and purses.

They'll stand in line, wait until they're rung up, and then only when they're presented with the total, will they

• Open up their purse
• Unzip a pocket or dig through all the junk they have in there
• Pull out their wallet
• Unzip or unbuckle the wallet
• Then look for the exact change
• If this means having to dig through their purse for two cents instead of handing the clerk a nickel and getting change back, so be it.

How most guys do it:

• Reach into their pocket and grab the $20 they stuffed there since they're too lazy to put it their wallet.

I hate being asked a question that the person already knows the answer to, even if it is to break the silence.

Hardly. I caption TV from home. I used to be a court reporter, years ago, maybe that's where you got the law enforcement connection?

i hate when something seriously fucked up happens at home (still living with parents) and the next day they act as though nothing happened and they can still try to make small talk when the last thing i want is to even be int he same room/house as them.

WTF?? Am I missing something?

And BTW, I had cancer three years ago and no longer have ovaries. Or a uterus.

add to that all women who get on the bus and start searching through their bag for their purse to pay the driver after waiting 10+ mins at the bus stop.

it's never men.

eh... must be a makin up memories... wouldn't be the first time.

You type out the captions for CC on tv from home? That actually sounds really cool, is it done on the same type of shorthand typewriter that stenographers use in court? Good gig regardless if it pays well.

Anyway, back to the thread.

Don't you hate it when people get off topic?
discuss....

I work at a sandwich shop as a (shitty) second job. I hate it when I make eye contact with a customer, ask them how they're doing, and their reply, is "large prime rib". Sometimes I just make the doucher's sammich, sometimes I just ignore them and ask what their order will be.
