People who go on an internet forum and sell something but then not go back to it and can't even be bothered to check for responses or even keep going back to it after they have gotten a response from someone.


Because of my service dog I have to use the handicap stall, I have waits often far longer than I did without Asher to use the bathroom, and I have had people admit to not needing it after coming out. It is annoying to be in a almost empty bathroom except for the handicap stall being taken by someone who doesn't need it, that being the only bathroom I can fit into.

You do realize they put baby changing stations in those stalls so clearly those stalls are meant for parents too so they can have their young kids with them or have their strollers with them and yes even as a parent I have had to wait for the handicapped stall when my kids were babies and I have parked my kids outside the stall while I use the regular stall or just change their diapers in their stroller because the handicapped stall was being used. One of them was a wheelchair user.

My problem isn't parents with small children, but people who have no reason to use the stall over any of the other stalls.

People who allow their big dogs to roam about town without a leash. When the dog comes up and smells me, I automatically show fear. The owner nonchalantly says, "Oh, he won't bite." Then I say, "Motherf*cker, I don't know that! Do I live with you?!"

Then there are people who walk their pitbulls on the sidewalk. When they see me giving them the hateful eye, they get nervous and rein their dogs in. I'm then thinking, "Hey, if your damn dog makes you so nervous in public, leave him home!"

Essex girls (UK equivalent to Valley girls) in their twenties that act like they're in high school; falling out with friends over childish things, fighting over boys, thinking smoking and drinking is "hard", often on their phone arguing with a friend about who they're talking to and not talking to, etc. People in their twenties are supposed to be adults.

The first part is fair, the second part they are scared of YOU, not their dog. Pitt bulls are sweet.

Anybody who thinks that everyone has had the exact same experiences, the exact same thoughts, and the exact same feelings as they do.

Anybody who thinks that their departure will somehow punish those who would only be too glad to help them pack for the trip.

Anybody who asks for advice, only to attack others for giving advice that they don’t like or agree with.
