PayPal..."your account is restricted until you do all this bullshit so we know you are you". I know they are trying to protect the few hundred bucks that is my account. But ummmm....I'd like to be able to use it with out having to do everything short of sending them a urine sample.

Today's rap music. When I hear it I usually get very angry cuz it just irritates the shit out of my ears. What irritates me more is that other people aren't irritated by it.
WTF is with people + rap + subwoofers? Do they feel that they are cool because their trunk is ratteling? I've got news for them...doesn't make their dick any bigger.
What really gets me is the people that stop at gas stations...and leave that annoying shit playing while they fuel their car...go in the store...etc. I don't want to hear their stereo. If I didn't think I'd get shot I would walk over to their car and turn the shit off.

Don't even get me started on that. Everybody has a raggedy ass car out here with monster speakers that rattle every bit of their shitty ass car and they think it sounds hot or something. Fuckin trashy ass people. I live in Mississippi though so you know we only have the classiest people out here.
That is pretty annoying.

People not signaling when switching lanes, or signaling in the opposite direction. Not the biggest peeve, but the one that's most outside my control during my workday.

the fucking USPS!
I had to mail out 2 identical things today via first class mail from a group buy on this site. One was $.98 to ship the other was $2.03. I-fucking-dentical. no wonder they are in trouble. The lady at the desk said 'yeah sorry- we nickel and dime you just like ups'. I told her 'if i went though ups i would know that my package would get there'. The postmaster came in at that point and asked what the problem was. I told hm the story. He said the price was what it was and there was nothing he can do to. 2 identical envelopes!
that really pisses me off.

Android OS. I swear, this thing does the most irritating shit on a daily basis. A lot of times I'll pull google up to search for something and I'll type out the first two letters and my whole phone will freeze while it's cycling through possible words to auto-complete for me. I'm not talking about freezing for a few seconds; this thing will completely lock itself for upwards of a minute. So, being the incredibly smart guy I am, I turn auto-complete off. It will still lock itself, though. I have no idea why, as it shouldn't be auto-completing anything. I dread having to actually use Google on this thing.
It also randomly won't unlock. I swear, I'll be swiping that button for 30 seconds while pressing the power button on and off while it stares at me. I'm pretty sure that this phone thinks I'm an asshole.

I hate them fools who seem to think they're entitled to everything in the world, then have a shitfit when they don't get what they want immediately. Like, I know this is 'merica and you constantly need that instant gratification, but die.

This 1,000,000 times over. Nothing puts me in a fit of rage quicker than these assholes.
When traffic is bad at one particular intersection after work, I will sit at the light for 15-20 cycles while zero to maybe 3 cars get through per cycle due to assholes clogging the intersection who are turning onto the road.
If DeadPixels reads this he might know the one. Rt. 4 at the Delaware Park entrance near the Hospital.

Noisy eaters. As I write this at work, im surrounded by 3 people who make the most disgusting sounds eating....
The other thing that drives me crazy is people who ride ending/merging lanes on the freeway all the way to the end and just expect to be let in. Despite signs for a quarter mile before warning that the lane is ending, they just coast on through to the end completely oblivious and expect that people will make room for them. Entitlement.

It's not possible for them to have been identical, the price would have been the same. I assume you were sending out those Neo Geo lanyards. The weight may be pretty close, but if you're just off by 0.1 of an ounce it can kick it up to the next ounce pricing. Additionally, if one envelope was right under 3/4" and the other one just wouldn't pass through the tester slot, it would bump up into 1st Class Mail Flat rate which is more expensive than a regular letter.
Honestly, at either price it was a heck of deal considering no other service would let you send one of those out for under 5 bucks. Cheapest list rate via UPS to a domestic residence would be around $7.50 depending on the zone.
The postal worker's commentary was annoying though.

this is technically correct.
