All negativity towards Comic Sans reminds me of this classic Achewood strip

People who decide to pull out into traffic that is moving 45-55 mph from a side street......at the last second.....that forces those in the fast moving street to pump the brakes and avoid hitting them. Because it seems like now it's become the drivers responsibility in the 'fast' moving lanes to avoid violently colliding into the idiots that choose to just pull out into the lanes with no concern about the traffic

Yeah I hate that. To go one step further, when they pull out and make NO attempt to actually accelerate up to the speed of traffic. So here I am going 55 (the actual speed limit) and they pull out and do 15 mph... and casually accelerate, taking their sweet ass time. Again, a case where you have to slam on your breaks and pray the person behind you doesn't smash in to you.

Yes. Or people in a check out line counting out the exact change and/or searching for coins. Or especially the couponers who hold up the line because they absolutely have to save that 70 cents on hand soap and they'll be god damned if the cashier does not honor it

Yep. It's almost hand in hand. Those people that choose to pull into traffic like that rarely if ever are in much of a hurry to get up to speed with the traffic that is actually going the speed limit.

This 'trend' if you want to call it that has been happening more and more the past few years. i don't recall it being as rampant as it is right now at any other time in my career as a driver.....and I've been driving for 26 years.

I don't have an issue with exact changers or couponers IF they're prepared. Especially the couponers. If you need to search for more than 10 seconds for exact change then you need to forfeit that thought and just hand them $1 more and be done. And, if you're wanting to coupon your way to a smaller bill then know what you're looking for....get it....and present the coupons. Don't decided to rummage through your wadded up coupons after all the items are scanned to 'see' if you have one or not.

I've said this one countless times....but it remains as one of my top all time pet peeves.

If you are taking more than say a minute.....two minutes TOPS at a drive up ATM then you need to be doing your business inside the bank. ATM's are for quick hit transactions.....grab some cash and go. I get that in some instances you need to deposit or what not but if your transaction is taking over a minute or two then that's something that needs to be done inside. Plan your day accordingly. I pride myself with less than a minute ATM stops....I'm in and out with no hold up to anyone else's day.

Every time I go to the back there's a line at the drive up ATM. I always just go inside, grab my cash, and come out to find the line has advanced maybe one car. Though, since adopting Venmo, I almost never need cash anymore.

Exactly. Every time. I have no issues with someone writing a check, but finish that shit out in your car, not the checkout line.

I had a funeral this  morning and I had to drive  on the Merritt Parkway, which is a two-lane (in either direction) high-speed highway (55 mile per hour speed limit) but it's an old-school, twisty highway, not built to the specs of an "Eisenhower Interstate".  So the off ramps, you need to decelerate even before you leave the highway (with little or no exit lane) and the on ramps require you to go from almost a complete stop to 55 in the right lane.    At least FOUR on ramps, I got beeped at by people in the on ramp because I, on the highway, moving at speed, didn't "yield" to the car at rolling speed with a clear yield sign.   WTF.

Man, some awesome Seinfeld episodes in here, thanks for the smiles.

I think the one about COMIC SANS FONT is at the top of the pile.  It just has so much history to it for every person first learning how to make a web page as the go-to font other than Times New Roman... that, and the starfield background thinking their text will look like it's floating in space.

Just today I learned that there's a special place in Hell for Mr. Asshole speed-smoking 2 cigarettes before the bus arrives while having sprayed himself with an entire can of Axe before leaving the abode.  God dammit you stink.

As for cheque-writing (check-writing for Murricans), I thought stores stopped accepting them like 20 years ago?  At least up here people only seem to write cheques for bills or post-dated ones for things like daycare.  I haven't seen any retailer accept cheques in ages.  What's up with that?

People who don't practice movie theater etiquette.

I took my mom to see Infinity War and there was a whole row of young teens talking THE WHOLE GOD DAMN MOVIE. Multiple people, including myself, told them to shut up and they didn't care at all. Unfortunately this was Israel, so the staff didn't care much either.

But it happens in America too. People talking through out the movie, being on their phones, etc. BURN!

I once had a dude take selfies of himself watching the movie (with a straight face) the whole movie.

Selfies? With flash? That's a new one. I would have had words with that guy.

I think the *only* movie I've been to that did not have chatter was the midnight premiere of The Dark Knight. Could hear a pin drop on the other side of the room. But even in Infinity War, every time, the person next to me would not shut up... of course they had to explain everything to the person they were with, who knew nothing about the film  :censored

Am I the only one that during movies AND concerts I forget that smartphones exist? I might take a quick photo with my phone to post online later (usually I do that with the empty stage before the show start), but that's it. If I'm at a movie or at a concert, I am unavailable for EVERYBODY, no exceptions. I won't even watch my phone if I feel it vibrating in my pocket during a song.
