I'm only going to post a few because I'm at work, LOL, but here they are:

1. Loud talkers on the cellphone; like this AM on my commute in on the subway. Don't need to hear all that crap at 6am in the morning c'mon. The same when I'm in the store, behind you walking downtown, etc.

2. Loud coworkers -- again I don't need to hear EVERY opinion you have. And then you say you don't talk loud. Well, honey I can't have a phone conversation when you are talking 2 cubes up ;-)

3. My girls arguing...in the car, at home, in the store. Geeze why don't I just tape this sentence "Rachel and Jamie please STOP arguing" and put it on perpetual repeat?? Same for "turn down the radio or TV please"

4. People who wear a ton of perfume...again when you get into the elevator or sit next to me on the subway I don't need to get a big nostril assault of Giorgio or Polo or whatever eau de cologne/perfume you have.

5. When the subway operator comes on & says "Train will be moving momentarily" because this just means there is some delay they aren't going to tell you about until they kick you off the train, LOL.

6. Traffic congestion -- according to the Census the DC area has the 2nd worst commute in the country. 'Nuff said

1. People with huge SUV's and Trucks...do ya really need that huge bus for two kids?


2. People dropping off kids or picking them up from my boys school...again, is it necessary for all of phoenix to own giant Hummers and such? UGH. You can't even get into the parking lot because these little petite women can barely drive the stupid vehicles.


3. Traffic


4. Senior Citizens at Walmart...Yes, I have respect for the elderly BUT COME ON, move your a$@ and stop blocking the aisles! LOL!


5. My boys fighting and arguing...it's equivalent to a toothache or a headache that just won't go away


6. Dh working on the car or repairing the sprinkler system in the new shirt I just bought him.


7. Matthew's eating habits at the table...more food falls on him and around him than goes in his body


8. A couple of my neighbors


9. Relatives...only

13 things that can make me go postal....this will be EASY PEASY-LOL!!!


1. When someone is mean to my kiddos or DH. I turn into a crazy lady.


2. People that are CHRONICALLY late. It is so rude and ARROGANT. I know things come up and sometimes you run a little late but ALWAYS LATE?! ---steams me up


3. When on a QUIET commuter train, a passenger takes a cell phone call and takes it LOUDLY! UGH....


4. Body Odor. There are a few of my coworkers that come to work in the morning with body odor. I don't get it. I guess I take for granted that everyone takes showers in the morning, wear deodorant etc.....certain times of the month it makes me nauseas.


5. When people lack control of their kids. DH and I went out for lunch yesterday and this couple allowed their child to run all around the restaurant. The mom kept saying, "Trevor sit down! Trevor stop that!" ---blah blah blah. Makes me MAD!!


6. When people drive SUPER slow in the fastlane.


7. When DH SWEARS he told me something when I know he hasn't.


8. When I ask DH to do something, leave reminder notes and

Gee, I'm so mild mannered and laid back, let's see if I can think of any! LOL

1. (sure to offend someone,sorry) People who smoke around their kids and act like it's not causing the kids allergies, asthma or chronic upper respiratory infections.

2. My husband either staring at me blankly or actually getting angry because I claim I told him something and he says I didn't (when I KNOW I did!)

3. People who consider anyone who either doesn't agree with them or do things differently to be "Rednecks", as if being different from them equals being uneducated and inbred (by their standards)

4. A certain extended family member of mine who constantly criticizes other people's parenting styles, yet cannot get her own three kids to even sit at the table for dinner!

5. My kids constant bickering and argueing!

6. People who live their lives with a 'victim mentality'

7. MY IN-LAWS...nuff said!

8. Semi-trucks that change lanes on me on the freeway without looking or signalling!

9. People who say they'll do something and don't..no excuses or nothing, it just didn't get done

10.Cell phone talkers/drivers/road weavers! :)

11. That D**N dog next door who is left out all day AND all night to constantly BARK!

12. That kid on my son's cross country track team who made fun of my son for being slower than the rest...He's only 1 of 8 kids from the whole school out there..at least he's doing it!

13. OH, they steam me so much I'll just add the ol' In-laws again just for good measure! HAHA!!

okay here goes my list
1. When I do not get enough information from the school and they expect parents to help.
2. When my daughter's step mother writes on her things (childish)--(my daughter hates it too)
3. I can go on and on about the step mother so more things about her.
4. cell phone politeness (does anyone have it)
5. people asking for directions for places across the street or their phone numbers
6. having to depend on someone to do something for me, it never seems to happen in a timely manner
7. annoying phone calls from solicitors.... they never stop calling
8. when my daughter does not understand the concept of time.
I am sure there are many more. But since this is just for fun. I have to think about all the things that I could change and do before I get postal. I can just relax and know that everything is going to be okay and getting postal will not do me any good. So I think about those things and try to avoid them before they happen and when they happen I know that things are going to do just that. I have a way of dealing with it then.
smile and have a nice day.

Share with us 13 Things That Make You Want To Go Postal?

1...People who yell into their cell phones like it's a tin can with a string tied onto the bottom. I think that they do it for attention. I mean, come on! You have a cell phone, whoop dee doo! Everybody does! We were at KFC a couple of weeks ago. Everyone that was there knows now that some woman thought that Will was the daddy of her baby. But now that the baby is 5 months old, he looks like another guy she was dating (obviously sleeping with). There was a table behind her with a family & the father turned & asked her to please speak a little lower (I thought he asked her rather nicely). She turned around & said something like "Do you pay my cell phone bill? No, you don't! I can talk ever how loud I want too!" Ugh! Then the manager came out & asked her to leave. I realized that she works there & was off of work, but was there to score some free food.
2...People who smoke around their kids, especially in their cars. Grrr! Poor kids. Makes me want to call social services.
3...People who leave their shopping carts up against cars because they are too lazy to put them in the cart corral or return them to the store.
4...People who leave their kids & pets inside of hot cars.
5...Senior citizens on the road driving really slow. But let them get within a 2 mile range of K&W Cafateria & they'll run all over your a$$!
6...Snooty people. Have you ever noticed that the video game store guys are rude & snooty? They have an attitude of 'I've played every game in the store & you haven't'. Not that I would want to) My son & I play a game when he goes to the Game Stop called 'make the video game guy smile'. Neither one of us have won yet.
7...Rude people. Get some manners! Enough said.
8...People who let their kids 'play' at the salad bar.
9...People who drive huge SUV's & Hummers. Come on...really. Do you need a big car like that? It's a status thing, grow up! I personally think that our gas should be based on the size of your ride. Motorcycles would get the cheapest gas prices. A hummer would have to pay the most.
10...Teachers who bit*h & complain about students. Why did you become a teacher if you don't like kids? Quinn had a teacher last year that seemed so miserable to be a teacher. (This year he has some awesome teachers!)
11...Women who smoke while pregnant. You know that it's bad for you & horrible for your baby. Set aside your self-centerness & quit while you are pregnant. Do something good for your baby. Put it's health first! This opinion cost me a friendship years ago. A friend was pregnant & she kept smoking. It drove me nuts & I let her know. I live in NC & this is a common problem. Just in case you didn't know, NC is a big tobbacco state. (Hanging my head in shame)
12...People who let their kids throw trash on the ground & not tell them to pick it up.
13...People who pull up the the stoplight & stop 1 or 2 car lengths back. Then every few seconds, they ease up an inch or so. Grrr! Get up there & stop! Idiots!

In no certain order.....


1) rude people at the grocery store--it happens more at the first of the month--where they are all over the isle and it takes you saying excuse me a dozen times and then finally physically moving their cart for them, before they move out of the way!
2) Going to pick up a prescription at Walgreens after they tell you it will be ready in 30 minutes and then they make you park and it takes another 15 minutes as you see in the window, everyone standing around talking and giggling!
3)Mom who have little ones in public and they are chit chatting on their phone or to another person as their child is climbing all over everything, getting in the way, touching my cart, etc...--watch your flippin kid
4)Trolls on message boards!
