Abortion and those who advocate it. While I can say the same about some other things this is the only one where people openly advocate and defend it, regularly, and the only one that is legal.

Far from the "only one" that people openly advocate and defend regularly.

And abortion is not legal!

Abortion is de facto illegal, and you would do better to let others know that instead of perpetuating a myth. According to Marbury v. Madison "any law repugnant to the constitution is void." The Roe court stated that if a fetus is a person that abortion is unlawful, and that is the case today, a fetus is legally recognized as a person. Therefore, any laws upholding the legality of abortion are void."

What makes your blood boil?

Extremely, extremely high temperatures...:plain:

And reality television...half the news...irrationality...polka.

:think: People who can't think ahead in traffic...people talking on their phones while they drive...or while they're standing in line in front or back of me...if I'd wanted the details of your life I'd have asked for them.

:mmph:

Oh, and thinking about what makes my blood boil, apparently. :D There. That's better.

Those idiots at the supermarket who take their cart outside and instead of returning it to where it belongs, just leaves it in the lot to roll into the parked cars of other customers.

How about silly "lawyer" films like Legally Blonde, The Firm, and A Time to Kill? :think:

What about the stores that only have one cart corral per section of parking lot?

People who buy a stack of scratch tickets at a gas station/convenience store. When there's a line behind them.

My theology is not Biblical, but people who think they are talking theology when criticizing the Bible based on their literal interpretation of it tends to make my blood boil.

Also, atheists whose idea of a rejoinder is to say “prove it” rather than saying why it is not likely to be the case when theists offers reasons for why they believe as they do. (Apparently, they do this either because they have no understanding of argumentation or because they have nothing to contribute.)

Subcontractors who's knowledge of the drawings and specs are so dismal that I wind up with 400+ items on my punch list after my customer spends 14 hours beating me over the head with said drawings and specs.

People who call me and leave a voice mail saying "call me"
Why not ask me what you have to ask me so I can call you back with the answer?

People who call me about e-mails.
It's an e-mail, why not respond to the e-mail with......an.......e-mail?
Fewer buttons to push.

I love it when the brass visits my site and spends the entire time with their head down thumbing their Blackberry.
Why come? did you see anything besides your phone?
I worry they will fall in a hole er sumthin.

In no particular order:

  • Willfull ignorance
  • Hands that shed innocent blood, and those who defend them
  • Anyone who willfully disregards or ignores scripture in order to mislead others into bad doctrine, or who argues that their scriptures trump my scriptures
  • Intentionally disruptive and spiteful drivers (we have a lot of these in Denver; they will actually move up to block you and do other things that prevent people from changing lanes when they need to or otherwise interfere with your driving even when they, themselves, gain absolutely nothing by it!)
  • Cultic Republicans (a.k.a. dead elephants) who will blindly and blatantly ignore the pro-choice, pro-homosexual, pro-socialist records of numerous politicians (like Bush, Palin, Romney and other RINOs) in order to remain in their happy dream-state stupor, thinking that if we just get more Repubs in office, things will be "less bad" somehow
  • Non-Christians who try to debate theology with Christians, as if they actually have standing to correct us on what the Bible teaches
  • Christians who try to claim that theology isn't for everyone. Newsflash: "theology" is just a fancy word for "bible study." And yes, it is for everyone. You don't have to be a theologian or seminary student, but "theology" is relevant to every Christian on earth, without exception

So walk the cart over to where there is another cart corral or take it back inside the store.
I meant does it bother you? It bothers me. I do not want to just leave the cart out, so I will find a corral. But when the nearest corral is further away than I could throw a rock it annoys me. There should be more corrals.

What makes my blood boil? I'll have to make a list:

  • Cashiers who just hand you your change without counting it first.
    When my daughter tells me, "My life doesn't revolve around you. You can't make me stick to your schedule," but has no problem telling me that she needs a ride to work or to meet her friends in half an hour.
    When my family members never call me unless they need something.
    When my friends forget my phone number and never call.
    When my daughter asks me something and then just walks away (She just did that. :mad: ).

I will probably add to this list.

Can of worms . . .

  • Motorists who fail to signal
  • Coffee and soup slurppers
  • Cell-phone using drivers
  • Service Corporation International
  • Cell-phone users at the check out stand
  • Bobble-head newscasters
  • Newscaster who say, "If I told who it was, then you would know know who it is."
That's for starters
