Children: I do not like children, do not pretend to like children, and probably will not like children until they are my own. Until then, if a child is in my way, I will run it over like a speed bump if I have asked them nicely to move several times (hey, it's the parent's fault for not keeping them on a leash. Dogs get hit everyday with cars because they escaped. Why not stupid, bratty children?)/quote]

My rule of thumb... if they ain't in the crosswalk, they're legitimate targets (children and adults alike) (Just kidding, folks... I'm not that violent... just don't push it!

People with cell phones: Now we are in the 21st century and cell phones are a must have. However, if you are checking out with the cashier, and your cell phone rings, unless the call is majorly important (ie. emergency or business call), tell the person you will call them back. The cashier ringing you up has to wait for you to shut the hell up and pay her/him, which in turn holds up the line.
Ditto. Absolutely drives me up the wall that people can pretend to be so self-important that the whole world revolves around them?!?!? Time to take 'em out the back, yank their silly a** cell phone (in Venezuelan Spanish slang, they've come up with the perfect word to describe the cell phone: el ridiculo ('ridiculous')) off their grubby little hands and open up a can of whoop-a** on them just on GP! Unless it's an emergency... call 'em back! And it better BE important!

The parcel pick-up station at grocery stores: It's just what it's called..a parcel pick-up station. Not a "park your car in front of the grocery store while Susie runs in a does all of her shopping" station. I HATE people who sit in their cars infront of the grocery store. Now, if you are just running in to grab a few items, it's not that big of a deal. But when I enter the grocery store and exit the grocery store in 45 minutes and your car is STILL in the parcel-pickup station, you need to park your A$$ in a real spot and stop being such a jerk!
Another drive-me-up the wall thing: people who park in handicapped spaces when they have no right to do so. The Park Cities matrons (the high-class suburban bubble within Dallas) are notorious for doing that at the Simon David gourmet grocery. How's about I slash all four of your tires and key up the expensive paintwork on your yuppie-mobile? Nahh... a couple of strategically-thrown grocery carts will do nicely!
