OT: Name some things that drive you fucking nuts

[sbb122]

I don't need a combo religious service/military display at sporting events.

I don't need to be reminded that God Fucked America.

This one from two seasons ago made me irrationally angry for some reason

That's a better tune than the anthem.

I’ve never been able to find this fucking thread (which also drives me fucking nuts) when I think of this.

I’m watching Bosch right now and watching his lame daughter Maddie drink a beer. I fucking hate people who stick their upper lip inside the bottle rim for their swig. Pussies like that should not drink beer.

Not that I like deep throating a bottle or anything, but if you’re gonna drink, drink. If you’re going to sip have a mug of tea.

Personally, and because this is the NHL forum, and because I’m a lapsed hockey fan, I always fucking loved it when the Flyers rolled out Kate Smith (literally and figuratively) for God Bless America. Between that, and Roger Doucet belting out Oh Canada or the Soviet national anthem, anthems have never been performed better at any sporting event.

It is way too funny that I just noticed this post, maybe he does get us?

The reason it reminded me of two stories, not sure if I ever shared before?

So outside the supermarket the one day there were the religious folks trying to pawn their church off on you. They had that same sign up.
I was in a mood, so I had to engage. I asked, who gets us?

The person literally seemed shocked and went rambling on how I need Jesus in my life..blah... blah ... blah and even wanted to pray for me.
Before they started their prayer, I mentioned... Oh, you know Jesus (the hispanic pronunciation) because I owe him money for cutting my grass last week. And let him know I will leave it in the mailbox the next time he stops by.

At that point, the person knew I was an asshole and just moved on to the next person.

Then yet another time this same thing happened. With me being in a mood and this time my wife was there. And she literally beat the shit out of me for saying what I did.
The story starts similarly with me asking, and they went on about Jesus and that I need him blah... blah..blah...
That's when I said, oh I thought you were going to say Ramone gets us. Because the way he puts his tongue on my balls gets me every time.
This time it went over like a lead balloon. If it wasn't for my wife being there and pulling me away from them. I am not sure where this would have went.


Unfortunately, I am tame any more and don't do this stuff as much because I hate most people. On top of not having the energy to engage them anymore.

I had some religious people ring my doorbell. As I was expecting a package, I opened it. Instead of pointing to my no soliciting sign and sending them on their way, I should have engaged them, asking if they know Trump and that he is a false prophet. I could have gotten a lot of mileage out of that one.

Getting junk mail or other flyers with pictures of my house on them. I got one the other day with a faded picture of my house on the envelope and full color ones inside. Trying to get me to buy insurance, kind of like mob tactics - "nice house here, it'd be a shame if anything happened to it".

I always have to resist the temptation to find the agent's home address and send them something similar.

For me though it's the texts and calls that are worse, primarily because the cvnt that had my phone number before me (I've had it 16 years) still uses it to sign up for stuff and run scams. I get constant calls asking me to sell houses I don't own. I thanked the last one for giving me a new address, and assured him I was going to go to that address and kill her and solve both of our problems. It's fun when they get freaked out.
