Wow, the Hawks need a lot of help, but this is asking for divine intervention is a bit much.
Or were you confessing your sin of denying your true Cyclone nature?:biggrin:

I've always been of the belief that if you have to add lime to your beer to make it taste better, you probably shouldn't be drinking that beer. I have friends who drink carona all the time, with a lime. They never use a lime with any other beer. These same people will hassle me over drinking Miller Lite while they are drinking their corona with a lime. My response. "Well, at least I don't have to add flavor to make it taste good." Not that Miller Lite is the end all be all of beer. But, if I know I'm going to be drinking for a good part of the day. I drink it. Because the taste is decent and it really doesn't fill me up.
I guess, for me, it's the attitude that comes along with a select few of the people that do put a lime in their carona and drink it. I don't care what you drink, hell, my dad drinks Old Milwaukee and I still hang out with him. Just don't pull out the attitude that your beer is somehow better than the one I'm drinking.

Re: Do little things sometimes p*** you off?
My grandfather and father both lived by the rule that being on time is late. Or maybe it is genetic trait.. as I have it too (although my wife clearly doesn't have it:skeptical
If you can be on time (late) you can be 5 minutes early (on time).
-keep.

How does the saying go...
If you're early, you're on time
If you're on time, you're late
If you're late, you're ******

Grandpa and Dad never sang that lullaby to me... but the point is the same.

Biggest things that annoy me are pretty much mostly traffic related:
1. People that tail you so close you can't see their headlights. I will tap my brakes a few times and hope you back off but if you don't I hope for your sake and mine you are paying attention when I lay on the brakes a little harder so you finally get the point that you are too close!
2. People that don't use turn signals. Ever sit at a stop waiting for a chance to turn and then some idiot just turns and by the time they do it's too late for you to turn and you have to wait again? That irks me more than anything at some busy intersections. If I had known the car was turning I would have pulled out into the interesection while he had traffic behind him slowed down.
3. People that drive like maniacs and cut you off only to get off at the next exit or turn. Wow, you really gained a whole lot by speeding up and passing me then turning just a few hundred feet down the road. I usually drive 5-10 MPH over the limit unless its a county road which is sometimes much more so it's not like I'm holding traffic up. Usually I'll speed up and not let those cars in too when they try that.
4. The idiots that know the lane they are in is ending but blow past everyone then try to cut in front of someone when they run out of lane to drive in. I also won't let those cars in. There were times the road construction had been going on for months so everyone that drives it daily knows when they need to get over and everyone is patiently waiting then you see some guy 10 cars back dart out and go past everything then turn their blinker on hoping someone will let them in.
5. People that are constantly late and don't make the effort to improve on their reputation of always being late. We have friends that we will tell they need to meet us at a certain time so we'll add like 30 minutes to that so if they show up earlier than they need to its better than telling them the actual time and having them show up late. Even then they sometimes don't make it on time.

Agreed, I'm not trying to bash carona. As I said, it's the attitude of a select few. In fact, I was told by one of my friends at a tailgate, "What are you doing drinking Miller lite, that stuff sucks. Life is too short to drink cheap beer!" I pointed out to him that just because a beer is expensive doesn't mean it's good. Price shouldn't affect his drinking habbits, taste should.
Numbers 1,3 & 4 are me...I cant help it(that's a lie) its just the nature of this beast. I appoligize in advance for all that I **** off, it is something the wife is working to correct.
People who don't use their turn signals should be hung, I don't care if you don't think it's necessary all the time, get in the habit of using it every time and then you won't almost kill me when you make a left hand turn with no turn signal.
I'm still convinced that 90% of Iowans don't know right turns on red are legal. Dear God, I'm going to kill somebody! I'm quick to honk at the offenders.
I get a chuckle when they throw their arms up because they have no idea what I'm honking at. That turns my anger to a smile. Stupid people sometimes amuse me.

it is usually because they can't/won't turn into the near lane. they want both lanes open.. so they can bolt to the left/far lane.
grrrrrrrr.
