If we're onto driving:

- at a stoplight the car in front of you decides to wait until the light turns green before his/her left turn signal goes on.

- waiting to make a left turn:
a.) putz in front of you too oblivious/chickenshit (ummmmm.....old?) to advance a little into the intersection for the two-car turn during a 'stale yellow', or just plain being an enormous dipshit and not even making the fucking turn AT ALL, thinking "Oh - I'll just wait till the advanced green comes around again.")
b.) oncoming traffic trying to weasel by you as light turns red, making your turn late, which, in turn, pisses off the intersecting traffic that wants to commence their turns, but are being held up by you. (I'll so honk the shit out of you if you try that on me. Actually, I'll honk over any of these infractions.)

- AS SOON AS you've driven through an intersection, fuzznuts in front you IMMEDIATELY stops to let a car enter traffic from a parking lot. Talk about a recipe for rear-enders. I'm always going "yikes" as I look in my rear-view mirror at the approaching car behind me - still not all the way through the fucking intersection sometimes! (Going southbound down Shelbourne, past Hillside - that parking lot for the medical building - not a cool place.)

-and speaking of Shelbourne, when traffic's tight and there's no room to change lanes, Mr./Mrs. Oblivious/Chickenshit/Raisin decides to travel at 30k the WHOLE FUCKING WAY instead of using the incredibly BASIC balls/judgement to quickly nip around a cyclist.

I could go on, but I have to go.........sharpen a machete, or something. - Wed, 22 Mar 2006 5:41pm Edited: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 5:48pm

I also hate when girls assume you're the type who'd go after their guy, right in front of them or otherwise. As a matter of fact, I can think of few things I despise more than people thinking I'd do something so awful to another person. - Mon, 29 May 2006 3:31pm

I hate it when assholes dump their unwanted pets in a field and because they were too fucked in the head to not spay or nueter them as well as dump them because they were moving and forcing me and my wife to trap 2 barely adult cats and three, now feral kittens, get them fixed before we were over run with cats, (mom was pregnant again). Also we had to find a home for the kittens and we brought the adults back to our property because we don`t believe in cruelty to animals, whether it be dog , cat , or fucking moose. People like that should be castrated so they don`t breed themselves. Also thanks to the S.P.C.A for providing the spay / nueter costs, The Sooke Vet Hospital and Dee`s kitten adoption.

Tipping. You get paid enough for your easy ass job. sure its hard work and everything but if you dont bust your ass to make sure my meal is freaking amazing im not paying anymore than it costs. 10% if you are a godly server. I would leave less money most of the time if i could.

If we tip waiters why dont we tip clerks at stores, gas attendants, etc etc or anyone else who has a bullshit minimum wage job. Go to college and get a real job you degenerate. - Tue, 12 Sep 2006 8:21pm

You're a knob. You really think that serving is an "easy ass" job? We have to put up with a lot more than you probably realize (I'm assuming that you've never done the job otherwise you'd understand how it works), and when jerks like you don't tip you know what happens?
We have to tip out the kitchen a percentage of our sales regardless if you tipped us or not, then there is the bartender who gets a cut and a host/ess who gets a share too. So when you don't tip that money comes out of our pocket.
Thanks asshole.
And if we were on a system like they have in some European countries where tipping is not a custom, you'd be paying about twice as much for that meal because the servers are being paid well. It is a profession that takes skill like any other. And guess what people DO tip gas attendants (if he/she provided a service like checking oil etc..), and some clerks (private liquor stores), so get off your high horse and open your eyes.
If you don't like the customs of our country then move somewhere else fuck-face. - Wed, 13 Sep 2006 12:19pm

Dude!
Ya gotta tip.
Especially if you frequent the same establishments. 20%, at least.Don't be so fuckin cheap. You think your so above everybody else, well then prove it, leave 50%.
It works out in the long run, better seating, better service, etc.Besides, don't cha want the people who are handling your food to like you.
I get the feeling your bills don't ever add up to more than $10.00, 20% is a twoonie, if your to cheap to leave that then maybe you should eat at home.
BTW, if you get full service gas your a real jerk for not tipping the attendant. - Wed, 13 Sep 2006 12:36pm

welcome to the real world... its not like hospitality is the only job field that has setbacks, cutbacks, jerk customers, complaints... retail isn't much different, and you dont hear me complaining.
Where i lose touch with "servers" is completely on tipping. You make it sound like such a hardship when someone doesn't tip(doesn't that send a message also to the service?). Im not trying to say your in-adequite at your job or anything like that, so dont get all huffy with me. As for the tipping out to the kitchen, if it weren't for the kitchen you wouldn't have a job serving, so they deserve every penny just as much as you guys out front, no matter the expense. Also to further the tipping issue, your not taxed for that money... so really its not part of your annual pay cheque, ie)its a freebie, . If i got 10$ a day in tips on top of being paid my regular wage, id be extatic. I think in our north american ways, we lose sight of what gratuity really means. Its a privilage not a right. - Wed, 13 Sep 2006 1:07pm

Hi J,
I wasn't complaining about tipping out the kitchen or the rest of the staff I just thought he should know how the restaurant industry works if he is going to continue to eat out. I over tip all of my support staff everyday because I beleive they deserve it.
Also, just so you know, I do claim my tips. I have extra tax taken off each paycheck to accommodate for the tips. If I didn't I would be asking for an audit; and I need my income to be accurate so I can qualify for a mortgage on a house some day or a loan. Like I said it's a profession.

If I went to a clothing store, got to sit somewhere comfortable, and was shown outfits in my size after looking at a catalogue I would tip that person. After all they just made my expereince so much more pleasurable.

Also if you think that your food somewhere was great and your drinks were good but your server was rude - don't tip. Always tip the good ones though...unless you want to start being served by completely untrained people who don't care if your fork just fell off the table or can't get your order right. Hope you don't have any allergies! - Wed, 13 Sep 2006 6:41pm Edited: Wed, 13 Sep 2006 6:42pm

fair enuff dumpster... and good on you for actually claiming your tips. I know alot of people in that industry that dont(though the tips they made wont set off any alarms for audit).
as for the clothing store, i work in a racquet sport specialty store and we do a hellovalot of clothing and I do pull out my catalogues online and material for any customer at anytime if need be... I would love if every customer came in had the same attitude as you :P
anyhow, i just hear it all the time about servers vs. customers and the views on tipping in general. to me good service deserves its rewards(i always tip 10% on subpar-average service, and usually 30% for good-excpetional service... i just dont like it when servers actually complain about their tip to my face... it happened at D'arcy's pub when i orderd a beer and it was 4.25 and i gave him 6 and said that's ok... he came back to me and asked me "you expect service on the kind of tip you left me?" in front of the whole patio, needless to say i threw him a 20 and said looks like you need it more than me you fucking asshole.) - Thu, 14 Sep 2006 2:19pm

OMFG!!! I can't beleive he would complain about a 240% tip!! You should've talked to his manager - guys like that are what give all servers a greedy name.
I have a regular who comes in for his pint of Canadian a few times a day and some times it's a .10 tip and sometimes it's a $2.00 tip. He's one of my favorites because he is easy to please:)
No server should EVER complain about a tip anywhere a customer can hear. Bad form. - Thu, 14 Sep 2006 9:13pm

and to boot, i ordered a ceasar that time and the server felt bad about bitching at me so he brought to the table where i WAS sitting, before i had stormed out in a huff, a guiness... all my friend had to say to him was 'i think he orderd a ceasar you fucking moron"... so i hope he got the message there.
but in the end, ya cant win'em all - Fri, 15 Sep 2006 2:00pm

there was a point where every server started to say "did you want your change?" What is that??
Not knocking the work - I did it for a REALLY long time, but that kind of presumption, or inferral that you are tipping them the leftover amount no matter how much it is, is obnoxious. - Sat, 16 Sep 2006 8:19am

i agree completely

but i remember when there wasn't even a question asked, you got your change back and then you are left to tip them if you want to... not because you HAVE to. - Sat, 16 Sep 2006 1:31pm Edited: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 1:32pm

Victoria Street Light signals, (while driving to Central Saanich) when I'm 1 minute late past 7am, and all the fucking lights decide to go out of sync.

A 20 minute commute to work turns into 35 min.s


Victoria Female Cops and Street Light Signals Should be Banned!!


I agree! - Mon, 18 Sep 2006 6:50pm

I hate...Wasabi...Dogs who just come out of the water and shake right beside you so you get drenched..Dogs who have a HUGE glob of drool dangling and dripping from their mouth who decide to rub their face against your clean pants... People who talk like Ned Flanders... Getting hit by old people scooters (it actually did happen once and it hurt).... People who tell me "YOU'RE SOOO TALL" oh wow really? Thanks, tell me something I DON'T KNOW.... Preppy conformist stupid ditzy personality-lacking girls... Jocks... American and Canadian Idol... Ipods and the commercials for them.... The rap commercial for Milk "Straight to your bones, from the farm to the fridge. We know what you want cuz we know how you live. We got the big brown bessy with the m-i-l-k" I can't stand it.... When toast or crackers always land spread side up :(.... Telemarketers... People who get the wrong number but phone your house about 5 times with the wrong number STILL... cold coffee.... warm beer... When hoodies lose their soft fleecy interior and start to pill and get all rough and itchy... when you can't find the cd you want anywhere in Victoria (happens way too often).... When people wear shirts with a band's name on it and probably can't even name one song from that band or any of its members....
