Well if that's the case, you shouldn't have call waiting!

On the subject of phones, I hate when people don't leave a message on your answering machine. I also hate when they just let it ring like 3 times. If you're in the other room, you don't have time to get to it!

I hate it when people drive SUV's but don't know how to drive them. I'm not trying to be sexist, but it seems like it's usually the women I see (soccer moms) that drive them like they own the road. They think they're in a tank and nothing can hurt them. I have seen guys that can't drive them either though.

I hate when you're in a long line of traffic, because of construction, or whatever, and people think they can get in the other lane, or on the shoulder, zoom up to the front, and get in up there. I do all I can to not let them in, but someone always does.

I hate when people push their way to the front of the line at an amusement park. It's usually foreigners or some 12 year old punk kids. When they tell them (the foreigners) to get to the back, they say they don't speak English. It's always funny when someone then tells them in their own language!
