Yep, these scumbags should never be able to own a pet or have children cause they would probably do the same thing to them.

Worry, not just because of the battering of the pup but because -  "A growing body of research indicates that people who commit acts of cruelty towards animals rarely stop there. 6 Murderers and people who abuse their spouse or children frequently harmed animals in the past.7 People who abuse animals are not only dangerous to their animal victims but may also be dangerous to people.8 "

The number of police/army personal that had to be out after the selwyn/chch earthquake to stop people from looting was ridiculous. Last week someone cut through some fences on our farm to break into the neighbours place and steal a (f**ken nice, and rather expensive) car and some stuff out of the implement shed. People are sh*t.

Typical gumm'nt.

If it was mine to do as I please I'd invest it in a long-term, high risk, high return scheme.

People who are just generally slow about doing things. Includes people who walk slowly (I'm short and have short legs but I walk faster than most people).

For example, I work at a fast food restaurant, at the front counter. People are welcome to hang around and read the menu all they want, but once you step up to me and start ordering, it's extremely annoying when they order maybe one item, then spend half a minute thinking out loud about whether they want a medium drink or a large drunk.

Also, people generally don't listen to what I say. I'll ask them to clarify something on their order, like if they want cheese on their burger or something, and get ignored. And, more often than not, when they're done ordering and I tell them their total, they respond with "How much is it?"

Example annoying conversation...

Me: Hi can I take your order please?
Cust: I'll have a Big and Tasty...
Me: Did you want cheese on that?
Cust: And a... I don't know, should I get a medium or large drink...
Me: ... would you like cheese on your Big and Tasty?
Cust: I guess I'll have a large.
Me: What kind of drink would you like?
Cust: Yes.
Me: ...
Cust: How much is it?
Me: What kind of drink would you like?
Cust: Coke.
Me: Would you like cheese on your Big and Tasty?
Cust: Yes.
Me: Okay, your total is $4.67.
Cust: How much?
Me: $4.67.
Cust: *takes forever in opening wallet/purse/whatever to pay*

After which I go into the bathroom and shoot myself.

It's not so much that they're slow I think, just that people in general are stupid. Fresh out of high school I got a job at the local New World working in the produce dept, people would constantly ask me where something was in grocery thinking that we were just zombies that walked around doing odd jobs in the store. I worked there for about 2 years and by the end of it I just started making stuff up.

People who back into your car, then deny it is their fault, therefore making me write a letter outlining my version of events.

People that work in New World that won't tell you where things are or send you off in completely the wrong direction.

I know, I know, its serious!

People at fast food outlets who get impatient when you need to think about what to order and who don't tell you how much it is at the end.

Clearly it was your fault for stopping there - what's the other guy supposed to do? Watch where he's going? Come on.

And? Surely your insurance company should pay for your reckless stopping which practically invited the poor guy to back into you?

Sounds like the guy who tried to blame me because he crashed into the back of the guy behind me because i slowed down to turn into my driveway."But you didn't indicate"
He called the police.They never even bothered talking to me. He got fined for careless use and an expired warrant.I laughed.
