Here in town we have a major throughway (55mph) with an intersection right at the bottom of a long hill. The acceleration lane for traffic merging from the right runs the full length of the hill yet persons insist on merging right in front of full speed traffic at the lower part of the hill when they are only doing 25 or 30.

A right established by the 38,000th amendment?

What gets your knickers in a knot / panties in a bunch / makes your blood boil? What gets your goat? Gets your blood pressure up? Gets your boiler steaming?
I hate it when people make a big deal out of things that don't even matter, or when men promise faithfully to call you...and then don't.

For some reason people problems don’t bother me as much, but man when an electronic item doesn’t work right for no particular reason/not a reason I know then I get instantly annoyed. I have very much been tempted to slam my fists on a keyboard more than once.

Lawsuit commercials on TV
Loud commercials on TV
"Woke" TV shows, movies, advertising campaigns and product changes
Being taken to task for wrongs done to other people that you didn't personally commit, based on your race and sex.
People who can't drive in the rain
When people take Scripture passages which are directed to a certain group of people and/or a certain period of time and try to apply them to themselves (Jeremiah 29:11, hint hint!)
When women say they will message you back and then don't

What if you don't wear panties or knickers? :eek:
:ROFL:

When I use to date, if a guy promised to call and didn't I felt I knew right then and there that he wasn't a man of his word. But a boy who lied. I was grateful I learned early on who he was so as not to waste my time.
There's another thing about dating you might like to know, it goes for anyone you encounter really. If they lie to you. Anyone, who lies to you.
If you can't trust that person to tell you the truth, you can't trust them.

In 2010 Congress passed the CALM act that charges the FCC with regulating the volume of commercials so that they're no louder than regular programming.

Intentional unkindness, people who intentionally withhold approval in order to have power. Years ago I met a sweet woman in my divorce care class. She was lovely. She had turned to alcohol to numb the pain in her marriage. She said everyone thought she had a great husband, someone who would go out of his way to help other. Over the weeks we learned pieces of each others' stories. She said in the twenty years of marriage, he had never once told her she looked lovely. You could see the raw pain in her eyes. She tried everything to get his approval. She took cooking classes to make gourmet food. He would see her looking for approval. She said he'd eat, look at her and get up from the table without a words. She worked out, dressed up and would ask him how she looked. He would shrug and tell her to hurry up. She had a breakdown. The church blamed her for finally leaving but she said it was killing her. She was so sad and broken. It was a horrible type of cruelty. She could no longer bear to see what was reflected in his eyes.
In my professional life I had a lot of women in my office, and this one personified the pain of someone who had partnered with a person who preferred control to intimacy/connection. This made my blood boil. She was shunned and he was pitied. This is the sort of injustice that is intolerable.
