Joe List told a pretty funny story about a shitty $1200 dinner he and his friends had one time. Otherwise agree.

Re: Things you have an irrational hatred of
it can be both..if you have to wait for them and they know it its rational..if they do it and you're waiting and the person doesn't really know what they're doing but waves and smiles at you and says sorry through the window it's irrational..I rarely back in with our car because I cant see out the back window because its dark and I still hate to look at the car camera telling me what to doSloppy Dupree wrote:Is hatred of peopling backing into their parking spaces rational or irrational?
