Things that frustrate us all

Indeed, but if Kor went around dressed up as a Klingon he'd attract even more crowds and get even less space.
A friend of mine has an electric wheelchair and encountered the same prob. He solved it by installing a truck horn and battery to his chair. When he honks, the tourists get practically blown away. :devil:

When there's a couple dozen people all scrunched together in one little spot on the sidewalk, it's patently impossible to clear a path. The only way to get by is to walk out into the street and risk getting hit by a car.

Nope.

Asking people to move out of the way often works, when it doesn't it's because English isn't their first language.

:brickwall:

Not when everyone is so bunched together that it is actually physically impossible for them to clear a path.

:rolleyes:

Well, from my own experience, a good firm excuse me often works, not always, but a good amount of the time, and when it doesn't, it is smaller groups or as I said just now, those who don't have English as a first language.

how about renting a snow plough to clear a path? They aren't much in demand at this time of the year anyway :D

A couple of these babies should get the job done.

This is when you scream "Engine Room! Give me RAMMING SPEED!!!" Interlock your hands (Or use one hand to cover a fist) and form your arms into a plow shape, and charge through. Chances are they'll be so stunned, they'll forget to give chase. Don't forget to keep moving forward.
 
If Soylent Green is people, and Soylents Red and Yellow are plankton, I wonder what Soylents Blue and Orange (yes, those are in the film too) are...

"Ramming Speed", I think I heard that in "Ben Hur".
 
Earlier today, both my mom and I thought there was something wrong with our car, so we turned on the emergency lights. Most people just went ahead of us. But one knucklehead proceeded to keep on honking his/her horn for us to speed up (which at the time we weren't going to do as we didn't know if it would harm our car) and then for final measure finally passed us and honked again. Idiot. :scream:

I swear some people need to learn what emergency lights are there for.

Luckily it just turned out that we had some how turned our car's speedometer and such to European settings somehow and it wasn't anything serious. But it was better to be safe than sorry.
 
Nothing like AT&T trying once again to update my router to IPV6. It didn't work before guys, and it still doesn't work. :whistle: The router isn't compatible with it. It's too old! :lol:
 
Cyclists who ride very aggressively and ignore stoplights, crosswalks and stop signs. :mad:

When you're on a pick nick and you have delicious canned food but you forgot to bring the can opener. That's frustrating.
