not trying to debate you, but for some people, its incredibly hard to say dead, as that makes them come to grips with something they are not quite ready to accept. Death is fresh on the mind with me, because my best friend's sister just died yesterday

a new one. Ok, so I am at deviantART downloading some brushes for photoshop. I found this cool set, but I found out it was only for CS1 and CS2. I go through the comments, because usually someone will make a version for PS7 in there. The guy who made them is like "These won't work for PS7, but can you guys just download them anyway and favor me?".
Stuff like that bugs me. Thats like me going up to a gas station.
Me: 2 gallons of unleaded, please. Attendant: Sorry, we only have diesel. Me: Oh, ok. (leaves counter) Attendant: Well, you can still buy the diesel. Will you, please?

Little things you ask. This could take a while being that I work in retail.
-People who blame me for something I have no control over. (Ex. You closed the store in Such and such.) I'm like no I didn't.
-People who sit crap on my register and walk away to shop some more. It like ever heard of a shopping cart or a basket? Then on top of that when I leave and go on break. 15 mins later I comeback. Something is gone she blames me and goes it your fault. I'm like one I was on break and two it not my job to watch your crap that is somewhere it doesn't belong.
-People who tell you that they don't want something and then puts it in the most un convent spot possible instead of just giving it to you.
-People who leave there trash in the cart. There shoping carts not trash cans. Why should I pick uo your shitty dippers to throw it away? (yes someone did do that)
-People who make the biggest and nasty ass mess in the bathroom and not say or do anything about it. So we would have to walk into it to only see that. I'm like where were you raised on a farm or in a pig pen? Have some matters and some decently for the rest of the public who may need to use it. They go in and see that mess.
-Filling up a shopping cart full of stuff. Then leaving it in the middle of the store and leave. Why waste all that time to pick all that crap out if your not going to by it.
-Coming up to the check out and after I ring them out saying I have no money and leave. Or say let me go and get my walet in my car. Yea way to hold up the line.
-People who check out while on the cell phone and when you greet them or tell them the total or thank them and tell them have a great day. They ignore you and you have to repeat it and they say nothing when you thank them or say have a nice day. How rude can you be?
-People who bring crap back after a YEAR or longer and then get all piss at you for not taking it back. There is a reason for a return policy. No store has return policy that long. Then ask stuff like "You can't do anything?"

When my mom comes into my room to scream at me about something while I'm still asleep at around 9 in the morning.
People who seem to think pot is the most awesome thing in the world and have to smoke all the time in order to have fun, but don't consider themselves pot heads. (Nothing against people who smoke pot, I do it too)
When people get so worked up about wrestlers they like/dislike getting depushed/pushed that they say they'll never watch it again. Just because you don't like the champion of a promotion or brand doesn't mean the whole company/promotion sucks. Once the show starts getting boring then it's a good time to stop watching.
Heat. No elaborate explanation there I just hate the heat.
Someone really lacking a good personality, yet is consider witty and smart by everyone. I never understand why I find these people really stupid and no one else does. Idk maybe I'm the stupid one.

People who freak out whenever I smile at them, So what if i'm 6'3, 350 with 2 feet of hair and a bad complexion? I'm not allowed to smile at a hot girl (or hell, just a girl in general) every now and again? I don't usually bash an entire group of people but i'm determined that every physically attractive woman on this planet is angered by the site of me. Which annoys me to no end, considering that under the horror filled exterior, there's a mildly interesting guy there...See, Thread made me go off on a tangent.

If you accidentally make eye contact with someone and don't give a polite smile I believe that it's rude. I don't know why, but I always smile at everyone, I just think it's good manners. So, when people give me a weird look for smiling at them I get pissed off.

It just means theres a tear in the barcode or something! - A customer who bought one piece of fruit for about 60 cents, paying 50 cents in coins and 10 cents on her credit card. Then returning ten minutes later to complain that it wasnt the right kind of fruit and wanted a refund. - Little kids who stare at me. I know they're just fascinated because of my purple hair, but parents should teach them its rude to stare at people. - People who try and get me drunk to pry personal information out of me.

So, when people give me a weird look for smiling at them I get pissed off. Here in Finland if you look and smile at people for no apparent reason, they will think you're either wasted out of your mind or a moron. Or both. The usual Finnish mindset doesn't allow showing any kind of emotion whatsoever when you're in public.

I get the staring all the time and I don't have anything that just stands out.

And also too many customers who let their kids climb all over the registers. Or parents who just let their kids run wild in the store and knock over displays and such.

I work at a McDonalds, and every single time I tell someone that, they suddenly treat me like I'm slow, uneducated and simply not qualified to ever get another job... Dude, I'm only 17 and this is just something to get me going! (Yes I'm aware that refering to the population as a whole as "Dude" might help justify these people's opinions of me...)
Also, Keyboards which have the small backspace keys, so whenever I tried to erase something, I accidenly do a bunch of equal signs and backslashes.

i work at tim hortons, and if someone's coffee is WRONG, its automatically my fault, even though i didnt make it. people get so snappy for shit like that.
also, people that throw money at me because their lunch took too long to make. i'm sorry, but i didnt make your lunch, i just took your order and made your drink and got you your effing donut. the food screen is severly backed up, and you should know this because i pointed it out to you when you first ordered your food. no, i dont know how much longer it'll be until its done, and no, i will not give you a refund when we have a line up out to the sidewalk.
OH, AND GUYS THAT THINK ITS OK TO USE THE URINAL WHILE I'M CLEANING THE STALL. WAIT UNTIL I'M DONE, DON'T WHIP IT OUT IN FRONT OF ME.

It also bugs me when I get a reciept for a donut. I do not need proof for buying a donut. I give you the money, you give me the donut... end transaction. There is no need to bring ink and paper into this.
Do you really expect me to have a sceptical friend saying "No way you bought a donut" just so I can go "Oh yeah, well I have the documentation..."

When people park their cars inbetween two spaces, so no one can park beside them. Also, when people don't stop at the stop sign in the walmart parking lot near the door. I almost always get hit, when going shopping. When i say something to the effect of "i'm sorry, excuse me" to a stranger, and they say nothing back When i hold a door for someone, and they don't say thank you, they usually get a loud "YER WELCOME" strangers are complete dicks.
