A few people pet peeves

1. People with no backbone.

2. People who think having all students armed with weapons would have prevented the latest Campus Shootings.

3. People who talk loudly on their cell phones from one end of Meijer's to the other. Talking to an unseen guy named Ed about all of her real estate clients and how stupid they are, while she's blocking other people (me) from the red bell peppers.

4. People who are weird . . but not in a good way. There are good-weird people in this world--those don't bother me. The weird-weird ones who make no sense but think themselves worthy of note are the ones I'm talking about. Get it?

5. People (co-workers_ who expect you to drive to lunch week after week and offer not a note of thanks for driving. I've had it with these people. Next week it's "I'll meet you at the restaurant."

regarding item #2, I bet a couple of seconds after the guy stepped out from behind the curtain, a lot of people in that room might have disagreed with you.

Okay, maybe I'm wrong, maybe as one of them was dying she was thinking, "wow, it's better this way because otherwise he wouldn't have to commit suicide."

my pet peeve is people who stop dead usually infront of a shop doorway , to have a chat with someone , if they did it in a car they'd be dead

Yeah, and I can imagine the increase in the number of dead and wounded as 30 other idiots started shooting and missing. You don't actually think all those people who want to carry concealed would actually know how to handle the thing, do you?

exactly Rosa

Rosa, your argument works equally well for driving. Think of the savings in lives if we only allowed truly qualified people to get behind the wheel.

There is a possibility that knowing the room was full of gun-toting college students, good shots or not, he might have decided to go visit a Quaker college instead.
