Or when someone walks into the middle of a conversation and goes "Wait, what?" and expects you to fill them in on what was being discussed.

Tell me about it. The other day I was actually slowing down to let someone merge but did they?
No they didn't, finally said fuck them and sped back up again.
Merging is a very simple process that most people don't have the brain power for.

People that actually SLOW DOWN to merge into traffic that's moving.
IDIOTS! YOU USE THE ON RAMP TO GET UP TO SPEED THEN MERGE!!!!
Edit: Pretty much exactly what Frank was talking about, but I said it with more annoyance.

Unless you're in Pennsylvania and there are YIELD signs at the mouths of on ramps.

I can't think of any like that here in Indiana.

If there's a yield sign or something there, then OK I get that. I had someone coming off the highway this morning while I was on the road in the right lane. A truck next to me so I couldn't move over. I slowed down since the person on the off ramp was ahead of me, and THEY SLOWED DOWN TOO! IDIOTS! So I sped up, flipped them off for their stupidity and continued on to work.

We have the yielded on-ramps here. It's a pain in the ass because people think it means 'stop'.

I hate people in general, half of them take driving for granted and treat it like a toy.
And it grinds my gears when I grind gears, always 2nd to 3rd.

Folks who complain about things that grind their gears.
Just get used to it and suck it up!
