reading konaby2008's post makes me think it's not just me then...
Every day, all the time I realize that people are just rude, obnixious, have no manners...It's not just in France ;-)
Actually, I think the issue is that all they care is about themselves...
Pet peeves...
-driving, no blinkers, just freakin guess where I go, will cut 3 lanes to avoid missing my exit even if that means risking lives (as if they have to push their car and couldn't take the next exit), not stopping at stop signs (specially if you arrive on a bike), fresh red light is still green etc.
-people at the pool/gym staying on a machine, chatting, staying in your lane chatting (flip turns make wonders though...they get it quick), crossing your line while you swim
-bike riders (generally not 'real' bike riders) making U turns just as you are about to pass with no indication whatsoever, running red lights, stop signs with lots of cars around
-holding the door to someone, not getting a thank you (as if it was my job to hold the freakin' door)
etc..etc.etc....
