Yesterday a woman got right on my tail (& I don’t drive slow!) barely avoided hitting me, went around, cut the car off that was coming up on right lane & sped along her way. Last Fri.garbage men didn’t pickup garbage tho’ everything is paid, garbage out on time, etc. I called & no one gave a crap. T’other day, there was a stalled train on way to work (but I was actually not going to be stuck because I was to make a left turn in another direction). After signaling, I tried to get into the left lane which a little further (2yards away) would have taken me into the turning lane BUT this woman SPED up & blocked me (car behind her let me in). Anyway because she did, I had to spend 15 minutes stuck behind her while a few feet away I could have turned. Many more examples! It just seems that every1 is such a jerk & I’m surprised when some1 does something right, rather than when they don’t. Am I the only one who feels this way? Why are people like this? What can I do to stop getting so angry?

i feel you deeply.
my conclusion: people are selfish and live their lives 5 feet in front of them. it will become almost funny to you after a while.

There was a show on one time that was about things like this. The whole show was about how god makes little irritating things happen to us because if those little things didn't slow us down during the day, you could have been doing something else somewhere else and something bad could have happened to you. For example: That train that stalled today may have kept you from getting into a car accident.

Your not the only one that feels this way, I have really bad anger problems and I got pissed off really really easy. People are like that because most people just care about themselves, more than 80% of the people in this world, don't give a damn about anyone else, as long as their lives are easier. If you'd like some advice on not getting so angry, just go to the store and buy a stress relief ball or sand ball that you can squeeze (and act like it's the person your mad at, haha) or find something that relaxes you. For me, when I'm angry, I listen to my favorite music and I'm instantly calm. Or just ignore it. People are ignorant and always will be, but it's not really anything to get all pissy about, just think about positive things. Remember, there is karma, so it will come back to them one day.

Oh, I SO understand you. Yesterday, there was this @**hole who wanted to sneak into my lane going to the Bay Bridge. I sped up and did not let him in. So he went ahead and tried again, and someone gave him the finger and yelled at him. Someone behind him honked, and he sped up and got probably 10 cars ahead of me, and then the asshole sneaked in. This time he made it. Makes me so mad.
Oh wait, I got is all wrong. Totally forgot.
That @$$hole was me! I hope those law abiding citizens didn't get heart attacks!

Relax it is probably because some planet is in retrograde, or the lunar eclipse or something. Things will get better. The thing about dealing with A$$holes is that even though they make your life miserable you can take some comfort in knowing they are not feeling so great themselves.

yesterday, i was crossing the street in the cross walk in front of a park and the car sped up narrowly hitting me to avoid letting me cross. all bc she was too preoccupied driving AND READING A BOOK. i was flabergasted not only that she was readin gand driving, but she almost hit me in an area that is heavily populated by children. so i chased after the car, it got stuck at a red light, so i punched the ladies window until she unrolled it and let her know she almost ran me over and killed me. she tried to play the victim meanwhile she almost killed me! i was like STOP READING AND DRIVING AND PAY ATTENTION YOU IDIOT! people are just plain idiots.

Becuase if he's familiar with he gets to you than he will think of he have been given you. additionally whilst he calls the two forget approximately approximately it or be like im busy and or something like that

These frustrating things are part of life. If you don't take a deep breath and roll with it you will eventually crack up. Just realize we all do stupid things sometimes because we are all human. Anger doesn't solve anything even though it is hard not to get mad. Just try telling yourself it's all part of life and lighten up.

Cheer up, things only effect us when we let them, so don't let it bother you and you'll be free of all this.
