1. NY, NJ and MA drivers in the left passing lane on the Merritt/Hutchinson Parkway in CT that are all picking their a__ when they could just get over and let people actually drive. Move the hell over!
2. Supermarket cashiers that seem to think that I should be bagging all my groceries and all they should be doing is scaning the items. Don't get me wrong, I will help but do NOT expect me to do it all. Wegmans will kill them all when they finally make it to CT and people see what service actually is.

Anyone who utters the phrase "it's not fair!"
Also, anyone ahead of me at the drive-up ATM machine.
Finally, people that wait until they walk up to the TSA agent to look for their ID.

I guess I should let it slide, but I enjoy teaching a jackass a life lesson.

Treat EVERYONE the same, because, when I am cut I bleed, and when they are cut they bleed. We are all humans. Period.

Reminds me of something funny. Back when I was a smoker, I couldn't stand second-hand smoke, even my own. So I definitely empathized with nonsmokers. I must have been the most conscientious smoker, going out of my way to smoke in isolation.

BTW, this September will mark 10 years since I quit.

I agree so much. I can't stand when they take one last puff before entering a building, throw the butt on to the ground, walk into the building and blow out the smoke in the building. They probably aren't aware they even do it, or how awful it smells.

Forgive my ignorance Art, both you and Tom said the same thing. What is the difference between the Canadian and American ketchup?

The night is young, I'm getting booed as I bet the Leafs will do what they do best - choke - snatch defeat out of the jaws of Victory, and other Ballard Curses.

It was interesting to read Tom say the same, it's a weekly conversation with us. I find the Canadian ketchup very very sweet tasting. The first time I had it was at a McDonalds and I just figured it was a bad batch, but no. It's just so sweet to me I no longer even try to use it. I do find the cheeses and meats much better in Canada ( where I am now) and food in general much better than in Florida.
