Yeah man, some sale people are annoying. This one kid came to my house the other day (they come like 3 times a summer) trying to sell educational books or something. I'm in the garage working on my Jeep, I'm home alone, and he scares the CRAP out of my by just walking into the garage like he owns my house or something. Then he's all like touching my car after I had just waxed it. I keep telling him I'm not interested, yet he keeps on talking, and I don't want to say something rude like get out right now and get him mad (who knows if he's crazy or something). The next thing I know, he sees a bike and he wants to try it, I tell him no, I'm going to have to tell you again that I'm not interested. He gets on the bike, rides around the street, comes back, and starts telling me all this crap. I was like so close to getting in my car and just running him over...

That's my story of the day...:eek:

:eek: That's crazy! I hate people like that, who treat the world like it's their playground. How old was the kid? Really, that's the most irritating story I've heard in a while. Nice to see you kept your cool though. The worst thing to happen to me at a gas station was when these older ladies started arguing with the station attendants, i think they were trying to buy $5 cash in gas (who does that anyway?) but they kept holding up the line, so i sped off in a huff.

Mate, it's not a great idea to be complaining about the price of petrol on an international forum - the Europeans will tear you to shreds, they pay about twice that.

We currently pay about $1.40 a litre ($5.92 a US Gallon) which comes out to about US$4.53 a gallon or just £0.56 a litre (about half of what the Brits are currently paying).

Yeah, but we're a bunch of SUV/truck owning morons. I think, in my town, there is one car to every twenty SUV/trucks. Gasoline could cost $50 a gallon and I don't think anything would change here.

In fact I have a gasoline fountain in my front yard and take two hour long gasoline showers as my contribution to society.

By the bye, did I mention I also drive an SUV? 'Cause I do. And I have the air conditioning on at full blast when I drive with my windows down.

Not me, I just bought a Toyota Corolla. 40MPG Baby!! :) I do keep the A/C on though, but really that doesn't reduce MPG as much as some people think, actually depending on speed A/C is better then open windows for Gas Milage, and much cooler to boot. Im sorry when it's 98F out Windows don't do ANYTHING. I love my A/C.

Chundles, if I remember correctly, you don't even own a car; why would you even care? :p

Yeah it's all comming back to me now, something about you renting a Peuchot for traveling long distances and not always getting the model you want. :D
 
I would have grabbed the cologne out of her hand and sprayed it all over her... maybe in the face too especially if she was smoking...:D

I don't like pushy sales people... perfume dealer drive me nuts especially when one of the ingredients - synthetic deer musk - triggers migraines for me. I can walk through the perfume section in a store and go right to the ER with a massive migraine.

If the woman walked up to me and sprayed me, I would have probably punched her in the face - offering a "sample" of the services I offer. Care to try some more...:p :rolleyes: :D

OMG, I would have killed her. Or at least sneezed all over her - I'm violently allergic to perfume, cologne, scented candles, etc.

Yes sneezing is good....make sure its a nice wet chunky sneeze;)

Her: **Sprays substance**
Me: **Aaaaaaa Chooooooooooooooooooo**
Her: Oh my ged!!
Me: opps sorry I guess I'm coming down with the flu...sorry about the chunks...have a nice day:)




Bless
 
Something similar happened to me. Some girl yelled at us in the grocery store parking lot and it seemed like she need help with something. Then she starts talking about cologne and asking us if we want to buy any. I told her to get an education.
