    I love my sister in law to death but my in laws spoil her (she's 28 by the way) and it annoys the hell out of me. My wife is the eldest of the children and they cut her off the day she graduated college (i was literally standing next to her when her dad told her she was cut off). My wife has paid everything on her own. And since we got engaged, we paid for our wedding ourselves, our house, our cars, etc. My SIL gets everything paid for her. She lives rent free at home, her dad pays for her car and insurance. And NOW this evening, she tells me that she's planning on buying a BMW and making her dad pay for it. I mean, she has a ton, I mean a ton of student loan debt and her current car drives just fine. And she only plans on keeping it for 1.5 years because her boyfriend will move to London for work by then and she plans on moving there with him.

    They love and respect the oldest more that's why. You always compensate for your biggest disappointment.

    X 100 . Won't leave that much following distance while driving. And the ones that stop far back from the light and fail to activate the sensors.

    One more, people already under the speed limit slowing down when they see police.

    How about the articles titled. We found the best whatever or 15 ways you are doing something wrong. You can have your opinion , but that does not mean it fits for me. I just saw one similar that just figured out you can't uncook a steak that is too done. No shrimp idiot.

    I live in a rural area of Northern California that gets a decent amount of tourism for the fancy wines out here and whatnot (it is also damn beautiful), and the only ways to get here are through a couple winding two-lane highways. And the tourists drive slow as shit, which I get because they don't know the roads that well and because they rarely leave the city and don't know how to be confident on mountain-type roads. But there are numerous signs saying that drivers should pull over and use turn outs if they are going below the speed limit or holding up cars behind them, and these tourists rarely pull over. They just continue to drive 35 MPH when the speed limit is 55, forcing the locals to be assholes and tailgate them (within reason) until they finally get the message.

    Cyclists blowing through 4ways. IDGAF. If you want to drive on the roads, you obey the same rules we do.

    People that move over into the right lane to let you pass, only to accelerate and match your speed, honking at you when they try to merge back in.

    Vancouver lumberjack hipsters. Have you even touched an axe in your life!!!?

    People that say utilize instead of use . It takes longer to say and sounds ridiculous when it's used to explain the simplest of tasks . I've noticed that it's really picking up steam . Pretty soon landscapers are going to utilize shovels.

    There's nothing wrong with using the word "invest" informally.

    Well, while we are very loose about it and I sometime catch myself when I misuse it as well. The proper term for buying tires would be an expenditure. Now if you needed those tires to win some kind of prize valued higher than the tires you purchased to win it, then we can safely say its an investment.

    I guess it depends. If your tires are bald, its an investment since you're making your truck safer (spending $800 now to avoid spending $XXXXs in repairs)

    People who work the system. I see it far too often my company renews PA license plates/registration the bums know all about the discounted plate & registration. But elderly people and people who actually deserve the discount know nothing at all about it.....
