Have you noticed that people who are inconsiderate idiots are all turning almost human towards the first of the year? It’s kind of like they think it’s the end of the year for God’s judgment and they are cramming for their finals.

But there are still some who are inconsiderate and rude ALL the time… you know, people who stand in the middle of the isles in grocery stores, shopping malls, casinos etc. and talk on their cell phones. Can’t they move to the side?

What about those people in public areas that walk 2 or 3 abreast, and walk down the middle? You always have to move for them, instead of them getting in a single row or moving over.

Do you know people who (when you are talking to them) don’t look at you when you’re talking? They gawk around, look at their watch, stare at the wall, and when someone else comes by…they start talking to them and totally ignore you? THEN they say to you, “Oh, what was that you were saying?”

People that ask to borrow pots, pans or tools during the holiday season and don’t return them…things that are important to you and you keep good care of, and don’t want some irresponsible person using. I recently let someone use something of mine and it came back with 3 things broken on it, low on oil and I wasn’t even thanked for the use of it. I guess we know to never lend something to someone who is inconsiderate of others in the first place, huh?

Inconsiderate people take 2 parking spaces when the spaces are clearly painted in bright yellow lines, especially at busy restaurants or shopping areas. More self-centered inconsiderate humans among us.

When you are driving on the freeway, people enter and you have to hit the brakes or honk the horn to keep from getting run over or hit. YOU have the right of way; they should either slow down or speed up to enter the lane. Why do idiots think they can come down the ramp and on to the freeway and EVERYONE has to look out for them?

People who are NEVER on time for anything are the most inconsiderate people in the world. You know… the people who make you wait for them, never call and you always know they will be late and they NEVER say, “I’m sorry.”

Sad isn’t it… I’m Sorry!
