    Don't honk the air-horn when people pull the "horn signal" at you. Its distracting as all heck. Give em a wave.

    If said motorists are teen to 30 year old hotties, lay down on that horn hard!!!:biggrin_255:

    If you're one of those people that have to have 8 different types of coffee in a single cup then please, either move with haste, take the occasional break or stand far to one side so the traffic jam behind you can get through and be on their way.

    I was behind a guy for a week once that started at the cappuccino machine, adding that to his cup for about 2 seconds, followed by 4 different kinds of coffee and finally some hot chocolate, stirring after the addition of every "ingredient". After he was finished he stood there staring into oblivion because he apparently couldn't see the mile high stack of lids in front of his nose. Of course, this entire time he was standing right in the middle of everything so no one get in.

    I had just about figured out how to turn his cup into a helmet for him when he realized there where other people on this earth besides him and got the hell out of everyone's way.

    Clan Craig from the Edinburgh area, Blackburn. Thru Nova Scotia, then here. The other half has been in the U.S. since around 1630 or so, and came from Ireland, but have pretty much maintained a UK flavor.:biggrin_25525:

    Yeah, topic of thread? "I just don't know", in my best George Carlin voice.:biggrin_2559:
