When people being interviewed, mostly athletes, begin their initial statement with "Yeah, I mean..."
Huh? How can you mean anything when you haven't even spoken yet?
And the new Volkswagen commercial that says "It takes a long time to get to the top..." while showing a woman peering down from her VP office who is in her mid to late 20s. Yeah, that was a real grind.

I get that its annoying for people to go up to the front only to cut people off, but to do it for close to a mile is a bit much.
Look man, we had been drinking
, hell, it wasn't even our truck.

Can't even recall where we got it.
"Ribeye Bone In"
Hey idiots, the whole "eye" thing signifies boneless.
There are 15,000 homicides in the United States every year, but if it's a really pretty girl, she gets a week of national headlines and her picture everywhere. And if she's blonde, it can go on for months!
People trying to cram an overstuffed carry on into the overhead bin.
People who don't store their 'small personal items' under the seat in front of them and unnecessarily using the overhead thereby delaying the entire flight because people now have to check bags that should have fit.
Inexperienced travellers, in general.
In case you were wondering...I flew yesterday and was quickly reminded why I'm glad that I don't travel for a living anymore. We won't even talk about the unexpected 4 hour layover in lovely Newark or the other assorted fiascos that occurred.
Last week I took my family to Paris via the Eurostar.. upon boarding we found out that we had table seats so we were all sat together.. there was us 3 and one guy supposed to be sat at this table.. When we got to our seats we saw there was another guy sat in my sons allocated seat.. first thing he said was (in an aggressive tone) "oh, would you like your seat back?"..
I replied (sarcastically) "Yes please, if it's not too much trouble"...
The guy wasn't very pleased to then have to go back to the seat that he had booked.. I don't blame him, it was next to the toilet, but hey, that's not my fault!

You should have replied in a flamboyant voice, "No, you're fiiine", and then sat on his lap.
Flamboyant Lives Matter!!!

Who said I didn't?
People who finally get to the front of a long line. They are no longer rabble; they have become instant royalty and they're gonna take their sweet time ordering/checking in, etc.
People who want to discuss something work related over lunch. Sod off, my lunch is for eating, not working. If you want to join me for lunch that's fine but if you want discuss work send a meeting during normal hours like everyone else.

People who talk about work on a night out.. seriously, if I want to talk about work, I'll go to work.
People who walk into a piano bar on a cruise ship and request "Piano Man".

Yes to both of these.
When I'm relaxed at home, maybe had a couple of drinks, and my wife wants to bring up drama about someone or some situation.
Can we discuss this another time, woman? You're harshing my mellow.
Weather people durring a hurricane. Nothing in particular. But you can tell they know this their time to shine and they become the main attraction of their station.
Tim deagan is especially terrible.
Having to listen to political talk on NFLNetwork.
Reporters who feel compelled to stand in the weather and report it. Right now I'm watching some dork give a report on the Weather Channel from Miami while standing in the wind and giving the performance of his life 'struggling' to stand up.
When the local sports radio half-wits try to talk about anything but sports.
(hurricanes, music, social injustices/politics, foreign cultures and customs, etc)
Stay in your lane fellas. I'd never know exactly how stupid you are if you had just stayed in your lane.
