Dude, I grew up in Mansfield, what do you expect?  *waits for flames from other Mansfielders*

Its not a question or poke at where someone grew up. This sight is pervasive... I associates it more with a mentality than anything. There are 'big city hicks' who do the same!  Ha!

Haha, Mansfield can be so hick, especially during the bike rally. :)  They all should just stay in Little Kentucky where they belong! lol

People who drive with their left foot out the window and resting on the side view mirror like theyre sitting in a recliner in front of a big screen tv with a bowl of popcorn.

 

Some chick I was with one day drove like that. And had her dog crawl up into her lap after taking a nap on my lap (UGH).

When I see or read the word Hispanic.

 

We're are LATINO!  :whip:

 

Hispanic = Bad

Latino = Good!

 

Remember that!

Wetback = Best? :)

Wetback = Best? :)

You would have to ask a Cuban, Haitian or Dominican.  Do we have any raft riders Cubans, Haitians or Dominicans on the board?

Actually, I believe the term originated in reference to Mexicans (from crossing the Rio Grande).  Speaking of which, the documentary (Wetback: The Undocumented Documentary) was pretty good.

Then you'll have to ask the Mexican forumers.

Actually, it was just a (poor) joke, so I'll probably just drop it and not ask anyone.

 

I got it.  Ive been here long enough to know personalities and I knew you were joking.  Hell I joke about the MessyKans all the time.  He he he  :P

I hate flip flops.  I had to ask this young lady, her boyfriend and their traveling companion not to ride in the same car as me.  It's bad enough you're wearing flip flops, but then you add a pair of hideous socks.  The Miranda Priestly in me just came out!

I hate the white flip flop and black nike/adidas tube socks that seems to be popular among some of our youth.

I forgot to note, they were euro-trash!  They don't know any better, but it's still offensive.

I'm officially old as I hate just about everything our "youth" wears.  I saw a kid getting off the train yesterday whose pants were seriously belted under his butt so that his entire underpants were hanging out.  What the F?

Dont even get me started on that.  These boys (regardless of race, income, locale) between the ages of 16-24, think that is hot.  Why do young ladies want to be seen with a man who looks a hot sloppy mess??

 

I will never understand how a young lady will get dressed up to go out and the guy is in a pair of oversized jeans, a ill fitted shirt and a baseball cap.  And you women settle for that BS. 

 

Yall done got my pressure up at 10:30 AM.  Damnit, now I need a cup of coffee!  :whip:

MTS - deep breaths and count backwards to 10, we're going to get through this!

 

Those are the same girls that let the man/child (whatever you want to call them) treat them like absolute garbage but then try to justify it to all of their friends who try to look out for them by saying "You just dont know him like i do!" Some of them are controlled completely by their boyfriend and think that that's just part of being in a relationship.

I'm trying but its been a bad morning.  That gal in flip flops wear socks she borrowed from the wicked which, just got my knickers in a twist.

 

I just dont understand how people can leave the house and look a damn mess.

 

The girls you describe above, don't have a father or any brothers.  A guy once suggested that he was going to "put my cousin in check" if she didn't pay attention to him.  So she broke up with him, then he did the wrong thing by leaving a nasty message on the answering machine.  You don't do that to a PR family. 

 

Us boys (13 of us) had to take a lil ride over to Apple Ave. and have a talk with that dude.

Some people in this world either just dont give a rat's a** to what they look like while out in public, but worse are the people who wear the hideous articles of clothing and accesories and think that they look good in it.

It's as if they dont have any respect for themselves. I'm not always dressed nice, but when i'm not dressed nice i still USUALLY look presentable.......most of the time.

Good for you. I think i would be sh*tting bricks if i saw a boatload of you and your cousins getting out of the car and would run like h*ll the other way, haha.

 

I have 2 younger cousins (senior and sophmore in high school), and i swear if anyone does anything to them i will be breaking skulls. Respect respect respect, if you dont respect yourself you're sure as h*ll not going to be able to respect anyone else.

I'd rather look like a bum than wear some of the crap that people think is "in" nowadays.

 

Ed Hardy? aviators all the time? pursed lips and hand gestures in photographs? Give me a break...and if your baseball cap isn't keeping the sun out of your eyes, you're doing it wrong.

You can add Affliction and Tapout shirts to that list as well.

I know I dress like most people, but there is no excuse for it.  There is a store that meet you budget and where you can buy decent clothing.  I know I teast about stores like H&M but you can find items there.  Hell even good will and thrift stores have excellent pieces.

We were already on the front porch and in the backyard.  So he wasn't going anywhere.  He's lucky my uncle showed up and calmed my cousins her brother down.  He and my other cousin are like fire crackers!  It only takes one little thing to set them off  - and there is no turning back.

 

His father came out and started talking to my uncle.  Then his father asked to hear the message so we called the machine so he could hear it.  His father was pissed and asked why he would do / say something like that when he has a mother and two sisters?

 

He still caught a minor beat down, as my cousins saw him at the powerhouse and corned him at TGIF.  Mess around with those Calderon boys, you'll be six feet under.

Guys, if you're in the locker room at the gym and someone (apparently, it's ME this week) is in the way of your locker - instead of standing there, and staring at me silently like a sociopathic invertebrate - try saying "uh, 'scuse me - mind if I get in that locker?", or even a "urrr" and nodding at your locker.

I'm sure I have more than just these but here goes:

 

1.  People walking or driving with their cell phone glued to there ear.

 

2.  People talking or texting while driving.  I used to think I was behind a drunk driver but now believe it's someone on their cell phone. Especially annoying at traffic lights - when having to wait for someone to get moving and then usually wind up stuck at the light because they were yakking away and then they finally notice and go through but I get stuck!

 

3. Whenever I hear someone say: "At this point in time." or "At that point in time." , etc.  I want to scream!!

Why can't they just say "At this point." or "At this time." ???

 

4. When people use double talk or big words or phrases because they really don't know what they are talking about or they want to sound important.

 

 

Uggghhhhh it happened again this morning. Guy in front of me at the coffee ordered a large coffee that came to a whopping ONE DOLLAR AND NINETY FIVE CENTS!! So what does this big high roller do, he gives the lady his credit card. Dude, do you seriously not have 2 single dollar bills in your wallet?!

I do the same thing.  Some people don't carry cash or use their credit card to charge things so they know exactly how much they are spending.  I use my credit card for every purchase.

I'm the same way. I hate having cash. It leaves no record, then at the end of the month I'm wondering why I don't have any money. When I use my debit card, then I know exactly why I'm broke.

warm toilet seats...that's a big pet peeve of mine.

warm toilet seats...that's a big pet peeve of mine.

 

awful, just awful. In fact, if I go in and see even the remotest amount of swirling in the bowl from the last flush, I'm out....

I agree, this is why I miss having my own bathroom at the office. 

warm toilet seats...that's a big pet peeve of mine.

 

Oh, God.  It doesn't even make a difference if it's warm from someone I know, either.  I don't like pooing after my ladyfriend has peed.  No warm toilet seats, please.  And actually, no warm seats in general.

The best feeling - Going into the toilet, seeing the seat up, and the water is still blue from the cleaning crew the night before. I know i'm having a good day when that happens to me first thing in the morning.

IMHO, the bathroom is one of those "off limits" places.  I dont like for anyone to us my bathroom at home and I don't use the guest bathroom.  When I'm at home and I need to use the bathroom, even just to pee, I go to my bathroom.

 

Its funny you brought this up.  This morning my nephew was in my bathroom because he to lazy to go downstairs and use the main bathroom on the 2nd floor.  I hate the fact that everyone wants to use my shower.  That drives me crazy.  I had to say to him, "get your narrow ass out of my shower."  He replies, "aww come on uncle skippy, it's me, your favorite nephew" I had to tell him, "you're not four and cute anymore.  Back in the day it was funny to see you jump in the shower with shaving cream all over and do your little "maniac shower dance" with your kermit the frog scrubber.  Now get out!" 

 

I'm so cranky & bitchy in the mornings without my cafe!

do you really want a paper trail for every single one of your purchases? :wink:

 

 

2.  People talking or texting while driving. 

 

how about texting while walking?? This should be outlawed in NYC!! One of these days someone's not going to be so forgiving to the next narcissistic idiot who blindly walks into someone or absentmindedly dances around on the sidewalk with their precious "hand-held device," interfering with with the flow of pedestrian traffic. Come to think of it, if I thought I could get away with it... :shoot: :shoot: :shoot:

Yes, I'm frugal.  I have a budget and I stick to it, with exception to clothes shopping.  That poor line item is always over budget. lol.

I too do not pay with cash.  Ever.  I use my check card for everything.

I go too many places that are cash-only, which is not a pet peeve of mine, but is for a lot of other people (see, I'm on topic!)

I put everything on plastic because if I notice I have cash in my wallet, I tend to go spend it right away. It's my way of being frugal. Plus then I feel more honest when i tell panhandlers I have no cash.

Sometimes if I see one of those oblivioids texting while walking and not looking up ONCE, I purposely stop dead in my tracks, and they walk into me. After all, I wasn't the one moving - so how could they be mad at me?  :-D

^When I see them coming, I usually say, loudly, in my best Ratso Rizzo voice, "I'M WALKIN' HERE!"

I just hate texting in general. I especially can't stand people who use their cell phone in the middle of dinner. It's rude as hell. There also seem to be points in the night now where kids all quit talking and start texting. It's so f$&king impersonal, it's ruining drinking. This new generation sucks balls. We were bad, but now kids are basically an extension of their cell phones. AND they have twitter, one of the dumbest concepts know to man.

 

Like anything, Twitter can be used and abused.  The concept is genius, and it's proved to quite the invaluable tool for getting breaking news out.
