The way people drive
the way people act in the store

So pushy. So greedy. The entitlement that everyone seems to have now is just unbelievable.

When I was a kid, people didnt act so aggressively in the grocery store. They will get two centimeters over your shoulder breathing and sighing to try to make you hurry so they can take ten minutes to look at every item on the shelf (me me me me me).

Some days I honestly want to start verbally and physically attacking everyone who gets in my way or pisses me off, but thats not the way and I dont do that.

People drive like psychos. Youre literally driving two thousand pounds of metal and fuel, so maybe dont zip out in front of people? Its selfishness and entitlement. I dont want to wait, so you can use your breaks.

Well maybe my brakes are shot, you moron. Some days I wish I was a traffic cop just so I could ticket and arrest bad drivers.

I feel that

And people are too "trusting" that the person they cut off is a well adjusted member of society.

That person could be in "one bad day" mode

State? I see that here in CA, but luckily I'm not at the receiving end of those times.

Seriously. Every time I have to work a customer-based job, it reminds me how barking mad about 70% of my town really is. My city is expanding by a lot and ten years ago, serious violent crime was very rare. Now, people get shot much more frequently and it all started happening when all of these out of state implants moved in.

On a side note, one thing Ive noticed (and I know this isnt all of them) is that these young, modern families can be the most entitled people you will ever meet. They take up the whole bike trails and get all pissy when you pass. They do the same thing in the store and they act like the seas should part for them because they chose to have kids. They want to ban vaping because of kids. They want to censor every movie because of kids. Half of the country didnt get their $600 check because they added all of those provisions for kids. (/mini rant)

This is in Colorado. It wasnt as bad when I was in Louisiana, but this town basically became a fad and everyone and theyre grandma moved here so there are just people on top of people. It makes me sort of bitter sometimes, but I get they just want to live somewhere nicer, so I try to be cool about it.

It really sucks, but its true. My brother dated a girl from Boston who said that the volume of people here is exponentially worse. Than freaking Boston.

Its not just the amount of people, but the fact that they intentionally cluster up in places like grocery stores. They wont be courteous and let you shop; they will stand on top of you and breathe on you until you freak out and move.

I think it's the altitude man, makes people crazy

It makes sense. There are some random days when everyone you encounter is calm and nice, but some days everyone is hyper aggressive.

When the weather sucks ass, you sometimes only get one day per week when you can safely leave to go shopping. Everyone in town has the same forecast, so there are many times (especially during the winter) when the majority of the city has to shop on the same day. This sort of makes it look like the city is more overpopulated than you think and it makes everyone mad because they cant shop without being mobbed by other customers.
