...write a glowing review of a recipe after they changed nearly all of it.
"I give this salad five stars. I doubled the amount of mayonnaise, and instead of the chili sauce I used siracha, and I added a half a cup of sour cream for some zest and used 4 cups of macaroni instead of 2, and I doubled the bacon and threw in a handful of peas and some chopped celery. I didn't like the idea of adding lettuce, so I substituted the lettuce for cole slaw mix. My family loved it"
People should not be allowed to.... (add yours)

I totally agree! It is okay to give a few helpful hints such as "I added celery for some extra crunch" but why give a great or bad review when you changed 50% or more of the recipe?

Drive if they insist on going the wrong way in a one-way direction in our library parking lot.  Bring their loud and obnoxious kids to the library and allow them to run around and play tag. |

People should not be allowed to send one person ahead to place a piece of paper with "Reserved for the XXX Family" on 20 premium seats at the HS graduation ceremony.

Bring their loud and obnoxious kids to the library and allow them to run around and play tag. hmmm, someone must have been at the library today. How can you tell? Seriously, it happens every time I'm there. When I'm going around the parking lot loop and someone is coming at me, I'm frantically pointing that they are going the wrong way but they just look at me with a clueless stare. Makes me crazy.  Most of the librarians are over 50 so the screaming and running around kids make them crazy too but they've told me they aren't allowed to say anything. ETA: And with this rant I'm a Pearl Clutcher. Oh, the irony. |

People should not be allowed to send one person ahead to place a piece of paper with "Reserved for the XXX Family" on 20 premium seats at the HS graduation ceremony. I've been known to go get security or the police at the event and bring them with me as my family sits down in the "Reserved" section. Then other people will come and ask if the seats are taken and I say not by us. I have gotten tons of evil looks and one woman wanted to fight, but as soon as she saw the police standing there, all was good. Jennifer ETA my dh hates when I do this. I've done it at a Navy graduation for his class, for several Navy graduations for the classes he's taught and most recently at my nephew's high school graduation last year. |

I give this recipe one star, I didn't have ground beef so I used a can of tuna and I was out of tomatoes, so I subbed a can of tomato soup. I threw it in the crockpot on low for two days and my family wouldn't eat it. Won't be making this again  |

Hell, I'd settle for just 10 years experience at this point and those who spent the entire 10 years working toward or trying to get a job in administration don't count. Then send them out to teachers to test, fiddle with, take apart, put back together, and study so they are RESEARCH BASED before you can even think about implementing them. The bra comment made me laugh. I've had that parent. |

...... kick the back of the seats in front of them at a sporting event. Or let their kids do it.
I was at the football on Saturday night and there was a boy sitting in the seat behind the one next to me (which was empty). He was constantly kicking the seat or putting his feet up on the seat and bouncing them up and down. Even though he wasn't directly behind me I could still feel every damn kick and jiggle to that seat. I turned around to give him the stink eye a few times but he didn't get the hint. Eventually I put my arm out across the back of the seat and he stopped kicking.
(Yeah, I should have just asked him nicely to stop.)

Use grocery carts if they aren't going to put them away properly when they are done with them.

Drive near schools if you aren't going to observe the reduced speed signs. I swear I think I'm the only person in this town who slows down in a school zone. I especially hate it when I see the speeder pulling into a school to drop/pick up their child.

Yes, absolutely this - and adding at the cinema or theatre as well! It is the most aggravating thing and really spoils enjoyment of the occasion! |

Oh no! I procreated without getting tested! And without passing a parenting class! And my offspring have procreated all without being tested or passing a parenting class! Our family is singlehandedly bringing down the world.
