People whose disdain I probably earned today -- irl

Some lady was hanging back in the bank drive through not willing to commit to a lane until she knew which of the four was going to move the fastest. Rather than wait behind her I pulled ahead and into the leftmost lane just as that customer was getting her receipt back from the pneumatic tube.

Because I always complete my deposit slips before I get to the bank I was out of there while the lady from the first paragraph was still waiting in line.

Fucking righteous.

It's the little things that make life worth living, WP64.

elite drive through protocol

Probably everyone I interacted with, including myself.

Same thought enters my mind everytime I hit Mickey D's breakfast on the way to work and reach for the Cholula on the passenger's seat.

So glad that made it into the board's custom smiley drop down. An essential emoticon.

Definitely need to step my drive-through game up in life.

re: drive up ATMs. who needs more than 35 seconds at one of these? honestly, it seems like 95% of the population. i don't get it.

How tall are you and how tall is your vehicle?

i still laugh every time i see a drive-thru bank or Starbucks

i haven't fully accepted them yet

Drive through banks have been around a long time.

i do not see many of them

they're more common on the side of highways than the city i imagine

They're omnipresent in all but the most densely packed urban areas. Or at least in the midwest they are.

that's just good driving. i've lived in the city long enough now that when i'm in the suburbs i feel like an asshole most of the time because i don't have the patience anymore for courteous/indecisive drivers. just make a choice and go!

I was paying for daily parking at the train station and some woman asked if I had change for a $5. I clearly did but told her "no".

She gave me a look like she was going to say something. But shit, if the machines only take $1 bills why should I make my life more difficult by helping some unprepared woman out? I don't need to worry about breaking a $5.

I'm not mad at whoever negged that post. I just feel sorry for you.

My coworker informs me that it's cold outside.

Could be worse, he could've talked about Manti Te'o.

Either Duff posted in the wrong disdain thread or we are missing a crucial part of the story!

By the way, did anyone else see the ESPN story comparing Notre Dame's reaction to the Te'o story to Penn State's Sandusky coverup?

I just assumed Duff gave him a merciless silent eyeroll in response.

You are both correct.

Knocked the bag off a woman's shoulder walking up the escalator at the train station. She was standing to the left and everyone knows you stand on the right so I made an extra effort to get around her.
