PEOPLE WHO RIDE BIKES THROUGH STOP SIGNS AND RED LIGHTS...

If it will make you feeel a little better just last week I saw someone pick himself up from in front of a car. He was on a bike and ignored a stop sign. As I drove past he was hobbling to the curb. As I got further I saw the driver get out and the first thing he did was look at his bumper. (I would have done the same thing)

Also, a few months ago I saw a cop pull over some biker for running a stop sign.

- Posters who correct me for saying Penny (Thats what I call it, I also call that fizzy drink in a can pop, not soda)

- When the coin counter bags get full when you only have 3 coins left in the tray.

- When they bank notifies the FBI that you are ordering 15k worth of halves a month because you must be doing something illegal. (They thought I had an illegal casino, but never asked me)

- dumping coins

- marked coins

-people who find more silver than me

- moving to Hawaii where the banks suck

I'm guessing you are from the Midwest by your choice of term for carbonated tasty beverages! Let me take a shot in the dark and guess either Michigan or Indiana

moving to Hawaii where the banks suck

My pet peeve: Anyone who would complain about living in Hawaii (assuming one can afford it and live comfortably). Screw CRHing; hot chicks in grass skirts, no snow or ice, perfect weather and scenery, Don Ho music (OK scratch that), etc.

People who post about how they just knowingly got a great deal on some coins from an unsuspecting Friend, Family member or old people.

And then ask Waddya think....... Well I think your a schmuck!

Having to roll all those 65-69s when you have a 500 coin week. My fingers get dirty and I have to do all that counting over and over again. Digging all those holes in the backyard and then trying to remember where they are after a year or two.

marked coin
no viable resale market for my 2002+ NIFCs
spotty resale market for my 2009 dimes and nickles
marked coin
people hunting on my turf
people getting angry when I figure out their pickup banks and start dumping in random increments there
marked coin
mean, bitter tellers
weeks where Monday is a holiday - my box orders invariably get f'd up on those weeks
none of my dump banks being open on Sundays
marked coin
people disappointed at 4 skunk boxes in a row instead of thankful for a box with silver, even if its only one.
marked coin
"Oh my, where do you get all these half dollars?"
"Do you have an account here?" (No, I just lug hundreds of dollars of virtually obsolete coin around just to test your security standards, wtf)

and people on bikes who ride them.
and people on bikes who complain that cars drivers are not careful enough as the run lights and stops signs
and people on bikes who are to brain dead to figure out in a fight between them and a car they will always loose

 

[buffhunter]

My peeves: having to deal with Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. My coins come in on Thursday and Friday and i go thru the halves on Thursday and Friday and the pennies/cents (trying to be politically correct) on Saturday and Sunday. So boredom rolls around on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Guess i will just go out and ride my bike..........

Figured I would add to this beautiful topic and also enter my solutions ive used.

Bicyclists who refuse to move to the side of the lane in a 45mph zone and they are doing 12mph. ( So i pull around and do 3mph and dont let them pass. They have the same rites we do on the roads so if they can block my passage and slow me down i can do the same)

The teenage wanna be thug who pulled behind me with his base turned up so loud i couldnt order my lunch at the drive thru window. ( I got out, walked to his opened window, reached in and hit the power button. I said with a huge smile and a lil squeaky chuckle "My lephrachun is eating oreos on the moon. Thank you.") If you are trying to figure out what that means ive made my point because you arent going to take the time to turn your music back own either.

Women who cant drive while on their cell phone or texting, who also turn out to be women who cant drive without being on their cell phone or texting either. ( I havent done this yet for safety reasons but my budding idea to fix this situation is accidentally throw a lifelike rubber snake onto their windshield or into their open window. Of course the only thing this would do would be to try to get her to put her phone down momentarily, or wreck the car, which in my opinion would still make the rest of us safer.)
People using their bluetooth phone in line in front of me at the bank making sure all of us hear their conversation, and then putting a finger in the tellers face telling her to wait while the rest of us are waiting for him to leave. ( Only luck ive ever had with this was a rather robust woman in line behind me was obviously aggitated as well so we decided to have a face to face conversation about 4 times louder than his. He noted to the teller "how rude". Of course he got off the phone and i scored 6x 40%s from the same tellers tray yeehaw.)

The government doing everything they can to take money away from people who have real jobs and paying real taxes while using those stolen funds to help finance the lives of people not working and not paying taxes.( No comment)

People calling people racists because they dont want to give them a free ride.

People who are so smart they can come up with incredibly good scams on craigslist and ebay yet to are too damn lazy to use this same intelligence to get a job.

I could go on and on but this will suffice for a while.

Well, I wasn't specific, but that's what I was leaning toward Mrs. O. But you can fire away with anything you have.

Oh, I forgot political correctness. As for LJ, I think she'll be back. I'm just glad I can remember what she looks like. That reminds me, posters that wonder what is so great about her. If you don't know then I worry about you.

People who use the coin roll hunting forum to rant and rave about the current state of the union or the world in general. It's ok for someone to talk about their beliefs about silver prices and fiat currencies. That is somewhat pertinent. But the constant bitching, complaining, fear mongering, and general conspiracy theorizing is getting ridiculous. You can hardly go into a thread out here in this forum without it turning into a soapbox for certain members touting their belief systems. There was a thread just today where a guy simply said that he was going to have to quit coin roll hunting because he was taking a part time job. The thread turned into the typical political soap box. The guy finally had to ask everyone to "chill out" and stop ruining his thread with their rants (that's my interpretation of his response). If you want to start your own thread and rant then I guess I can always ignore it. But when it permeates just about every thread out here I can't escape it. And when you are taking over other people's threads with your constant bitching then you aren't being respectful of others. Especially if it is so bad that they have to ask you to stop.

Oh yeah, and another pet peeve is folks who can't admit they've made a mistake despite the fact that they are operating under the cloak of anonymity that is provided by the Internet. But that is a general pet peeve and not specifically related to this forum.

What is going on is no conspiracy "theory" but rather a conspiracy in FACT, world leaders including ours are all claiming that we are in world Gov NOW, open your eyes and quit parrotting such unintelligent foolish things as conspiracy "theory"!
