Quote from: Zookmang on September 02, 2013, 01:38:26 AM
Makes me irate when a taxi or a hirecar swerves from the far right lane across two lanes into the bus lane with no indicator on, almost killing me and honking me for it.. and when people merge into you in the merging lane with no indicator on... and when people lean on your car or brush against it on their way past... bastards...

Sadly this crap is far too common with today's drivers ... texting, speaking and all sorts of crap while driving ...
I'd put a cell jamming device in any vehicle, or write some code into the cell towers, if the stupid phone is moving more than 5mph disconnect the bugger.
10 times in the last 2 weeks atleast, I've honked @ people for sitting there after the light has gone green ... honked for drifting into my lane ... one genius with a tiny little kia in front of me drifted into the right lane where there was a massive F350 modded to be a work truck, complete with those locker cases, and that entire thing was a bright red. How did she not see that ... 100 other POS like this.

Cool.

noooooo!! .. what about Jason Statham in Cranked?! .. if he had lost his cell phone coverage while having to race around everywhere then  we might not have got to the end of the movie!!  ;) ;) :icon_twisted:

Drivers are the worst.  I was riding by guy in a super jacked-up truck [just ridiculous] and due to traffic he's jockeying lanes and we keep overtaking each other.  The thing that killed me is he's making these jerking maneuvers in a 2-story house without using his turn signals.  And to top it of he's a pro-fisherman and has his name on the tailgate of his truck...:icon_twisted:  I wanted to send him a letter telling him to use his @#!*$& turn signals or to publicly shame him with a website or something, but I forgot his name within a couple of blocks.  But the lack of appropriate turn signal usage is really infuriating to me.

The other thing that I've been noticing A LOT lately is people with burned out tail lights.  And since I'm on the bike I want to get out or ride next to them at stoplights and tell them because that stuff can get dangerous.  Everyday I spot at least one burned out tail light.

The other thing that kills me is people that let two or three car lengths build up in front of them before they even take their foot off the brake, and then I see them waving their free hand around because they need to express themselves while they talk on their phone or to their passenger.

No Sir. Do not abandon this thread.
It has proved (several times over) that I am NOT the biggest idiot here.
Maybe the oldest idiot here, but certainly not the biggest.

And a rant you say??? OK, let's start a fire...
I'll hacksaw off my exhaust system (loud pipes save lives), install one of those engine killing grit-sieve K&N filters on my air box,
(an air box that probably already has a bunch of 1/2 inch moron-holes drilled in it anyway), then run some exotic and blindingly over-priced synthetic racing oil in the crankcase.
I can then I'll top it all off by installing a "racing" oil filter that shows a torque curve chart on the box promising an extra 10% power at 9 million RPM.
Did I forget anything...
Remove the turn signals?
Hack off the fenders?
Run ridiculously over-sized tires?

Yea ... you lower the bike so stuff scrapes the paint on the road, stend <- Yes that is the spelling "stend the arm" 3 feet, run a rear tire that is 3ft wide, so you need to have an idler pulley on the swingarm pivot and have a second counter shaft to power it, and say the bike is more aerodynamic cos yo ushaved the turn signals and mirrors and replace all the bolts with spike head bolts, and ... yes lets not forget, the ridiculous side mounted licence plate ...
Its one of those ... lets drop 40g in this bike right here doing all possible sheiete to it ... and ... uh-oh ... we forgot it needs to carry a license plate ... OK lets slap that on right here ... Yea OK.

Cool.

"to all the customers who leave things to the last minute" ..

Now listen up people! ..
No i dont have any truck availability for over the long weekend!!! (4-6 days time) ..
No i cant just tell the other customers (who did book up to 3 weeks ago!!) that i have to do your job instead 'because you are desperate to move' ...
No you cant pay me over a few weeks when your dole cheque comes in! ..
No i cant 'just do it' ...
Yes i do mind if you leave your stinking piss stained sheets on the bed ...
Yes its true that if my workers walk in to your house and there is animal crap on the floor that they will leave again until your lazy ass cleans that putrid mess up! ..
Yes we will hold anything of value on the truck when unloading till you pay your bill in full ..

....but this is all inconsequential!! .. because .. we are still booked out for most of this week and next week ... it doesnt matter how many times you get your friends or mum to ring me the answer is still 'no i cant do it' .. it doesnt even matter if you get a Recognised Charity to ring on your behalf and plead with me!.. booked out is booked out! .. if you had got your act together 2-3 weeks ago when you were given your confirmed availability for the new place and made a phone call then!!! .. things might have been different ..

... yes i've been called that and given directions to hell many times!.... have a nice day!  :icon_rolleyes:

Sorry - this is the order line. We do not do support calls. Yes, I am aware that the support phones are busy this time of year. You have to keep trying. Use the web support or the on-line chat. Here is how to get there..... and 10 more minutes of this crap.....

No, I told you 3 calls ago this is the order line - not the support line. No I can't take your number..... 10 more minutes of this

.... Again, this is not the support line. His line is not busy. If you called it instead of the order line you could have gotten through. (5 more minutes of this). Well, if you had hung up and called support you would gave gotten through. It is busy now......


The idiots just have to call an 800 order line. Even with nearly everyone with free long distance, they complain about a non-800 number. You get your software update for $29 and want to use 4 hours of tech time? How do we make money and then you want US to pay the high prices for an incoming 800 number?

You had to work hard to find the 800 order number. It is no where in the program or the manual.

The program has all the stuff and even a chapter on how to get support/help but you find it too hard to click on that button with the spanish guys name "Manual".

Then the program has a big HELP button that gives you:
1. Support number and hours
2. Link to web site
3. Link to web support forums
4. Link to on-line chat.
Why the fruck do I have to give you letter by letter our web site? Use the links. And where ever you found the 800 number, right next to it would be the support number AND out web address.

AND your simple question is in the manual, the FAQ and been answered many times on the web site. READ something - oh, you're an American and have been taught to never read or take responsibility for anything so you have to call someone and have them walk  you through how to wipe your ass. People have no clue how to search a manual or FAQ but still they can find the most obscure porn of a monkey and a cat in Bora Bora on the internet.

For gods sake if you don't know how to use a computer go ask a 10 year old child for help.

And yes- our program DOES require you have a computer ---- that's why it is called a "computer program". (Yes - we have had that! AFTER they bought it!)

People can be so stupid that they can't even contact support when it is right in front of their face. No wonder companies are getting rid of all human support.

Please - for god's sake - DO NOT ask me how I know this.........
