Although I’ve been great for a while, I do sometimes have to use a cane. I’ve noticed that even when I’m doing so, I’ll inevitable have to weave my way through a pack of slow moving students meandering their way down the hall. (Side note: it’s a wide hall, how on Earth are they managing to block so much of it?) Seriously people, the person with the cane is moving faster than you are; get out of the way before I prod you with it.

- “On accident” (epidemic among millenials)
- “Across” pronounced with a “T” at the end (epidemic here in Oregon)
In addition: Cripps Pink FTW:

I say “needs done” all the time, even though the positive anymore bothers the everloving crap out of me. I’m not sure why.

On the contrary; I know plenty of Gen X’ers who say “on accident.” I’ve never paid any attention as to whether Baby Boomers do it or not.

Irrespective of population it never fails to grind my gears. Are you (heaven forfend) defending the indefensible here?
I’m not ‘defending’ anything; incorrect grammar is incorrect, no matter who’s using it.
I was pointing out the logical fallacy in saying or even implying that it’s mostly millennials who do so.
“Why doesn’t Google work?”
“Have you connected to the Wifi?”
“No.”

Speaking of vertical conveyances: people who crowd to get into the elevator/lift without giving those inside a chance to get out. Got news for ya, folks, this elevator is not moving again while I am on board, so you might want to step aside.

Something about roads must bring out rage, because 90% of the stuff I’d put in the “grinds my gears” category is driving-related.
My #1 today is people who start signaling halfway through the turn. I just want to shout “Who does this serve?!” If you just didn’t signal, that’s lazy and shitty, but I get it. people are lazy and shitty a lot. But to wait until it’s already abundantly clear that you’re turning, to wait until the bike trying to go past on your right is already trying to make a go of it, and then to signal. That’s adding insult to injury
my #2 is people who seem to think that their four way flashers (aka hazard lights) are a magic spell to turn no stopping zones into legit parking spaces

Maybe you should just switch to driving an automatic.

Quite possibly wrapping 4000 lbs of metal to you is a tad stressful?
