also when the parents of a kids game gets out of hand.

I dont have kids in sports, but my brother does. They make the parents (in some areas around here) take a class about learning how to behave at sport games. and if a parent acts up, they will make them leave the field / court. Pretty strict rules, I’d say, but seriously it’s what you’re teaching the kids. and it takes the fun out of it.

When I used to play hockey I watched a friends dad get so mad at a kid on the other team he jumped the boards and tryed to fight this kid…he got tooled it was fricken hillarious.  Watched a lot of parent fight in the stands to.  Got out of hand for a while.

I hate that the Australian gov keeps talking about how there is a labour shortage and then turns around and wont let anyone come to the country to work…and those that they do allow to come here are resticted to tightly they can not get a job… I am currently only allowed to work 20 hours a week…Try paying rent, international student fees, transit and eating with a part time job.

Pull your head out Aus Gov.  If you actually allowed people to move to the country there would be less people sneaking in!

also that they wont give international students, student rates on public transport…..instead they try and #$#k them for even more money.

Smokers that can not take more then 2 steps out of a public entrance before lighting up.  I am fine with you choosing to smoke, I used to but I always would walk away from high traffic areas before lighting up…even when it was -30 out.  Take a few extra steps for those of us that dont want to breath it in.

The funniest one is the people that work at organic foodplaces and judge you for eating non organic and then there out there sparking up a chemical stick lol

 

1. Taxi’s in general. Shocking drivers. Learn where your indicators are, work out safe gaps ! Could occasionally include Buses in that, but only when I am actually on it. Get it right mate, your pedals are Potentiometers, not flippin digital on off switches. Pull up smoothly, I am not interested in chucking a superman through your windshield.

2. People who hate on or classify others due to a stereotype (i.e All skaters are blindly stupid pot smoking vandalists)

3. When my gf says “whatever” when I am trying to get my point across in very logical argument :-D

4. Needing to drop the kids off at the pool only to find the toilets seats been the victim of drive by urinater. Or just the latter in general. Just. Aim.
