Certain things grind my gears more than others but the one thing that gets me every time is people being rude and/or putting their needs above others. I guess I am a dying generation that thinks of other's first and myself last. I thought that maybe if I lead by example, others would follow suit but I was horribly wrong.
Just the other day, I was sitting at a 4-Way stop sign. I pulled up, stopped, waited for cross traffic to go through and then proceeded to slowly pull out and move on my way. Now, my LP is a Paramedic and a Firefighter, so all these years of hearing horror stories and awful calls has provided me with a very weary and cautious mentality. I don't go looking for danger, I just prepare for it. Needless to say, I slowly pulled out and thank goodness I did just that because some self-absorbed idiot decided he didn't want to wait for my Mom-mobile to get through the intersection and all of a sudden it was his turn to go. Sorry, that you didn't see me or the other people stop and take turns while you were texting at a stop sign, but we all obeyed the rules, you should, too!
I know I am getting old because I am starting to say things like, "kids these days!" and "when I was that age..." I realize that in teen and tween terms I am old and crusty but I'd like to consider myself in my prime, so to speak. I also realize that after having a child you become aware of EVERY danger that could possibly happen in your lifetime or your child's, mainly because you don't want to leave this earth prematurely and also because if someone harms your child, well... it doesn't end well for the other person.
I am so sick and tired of rude people who have no manners, that I have compiled a list of things I don't like about the human race or from the youngins these days.
Things I am sick of from Generation Butt-Head/Face:
Feeling self important
Participation awards
YouTube videos
Feeling the need for multiple electronics/iHeard Crap, while people in the same town are starving
Not being aware of social issues
Not being informed or refusing to listen to become informed
Wikipedia
The word "like"
Miley Cyrus and her lisp
Miley Cyrus and her non-baby destroyed abs
Wastefulness
Not knowing simple survival skills
Ridiculous laziness
Thinking being a vegetarian means that you can eat chicken
Rude language towards their parents
Justin Bieber
Hipsters
Paying more attention to your phone and texting than the actual humans in the room
Lack of social skills
The list could go on and on but I am starting to ramble and I could start saying things I might regret, such as pictures of really cute cats in tuxedos and that would just hurt everyone in the process. You get my drift, so KNOCK IT OFF GENERATION AWFUL!!!
