In a busy hotel, the punters cant work double doors.
Just use the other door!

Punters. Don't really know what they are but I'm sure I won't like them.

Double doors suck also (I assume), so that pisses me off

Building maintenance. People coming into my space is a betrayal I spend two evenings cleaning to prepare for.

The lid to my toilet tank sits beside me shattered because I don't want anyone coming into my personal Hobbit Hole.

People in grocery stores that block the entire aisle by either;

a) Stopping right next to another cart
b) Stopping and standing next to their own cart

JFC. Move out of the way.

Since I have nobody else to rant to, I will put this here:

People who don't know what the **** they are talking about when talking about poker. One of the guys I play with constantly talks about "flipping coins" regardless of the odds.

"I had KJ and the board was TA3, and he shoved so I flipped the coin."

"I decided to just flip a coin and he had KK against my JJ."

You have to flip it twice to account for chops.

And I dunno how many times I have to tell him a coinflip is at least close to 50/50, but he don't care. All in = flip coin I guess.

I knew you guys would understand/have awesome avatars.

So it looks like you understand that he is correct. And I guess you're right then that it shouldn't piss you off.

Cliffs: If I'm in a low-utilization bathroom taking a dump, I loathe when someone walks in and also takes a dump if it doesn't seem like it was urgent on his end.

In my old office, there was a 2 urinal/2 stall men's bathroom. I would say it served as the primary bathroom for 8-10 men, with several other people who walked by it and may occasionally stop in. I estimate that probably 80% of the time I walked in the bathroom I was the only one there.

It really, really pissed me off if I was in the bathroom alone, taking a ****, then someone else waltzed in, walked over to the other stall, slowly got himself situated, then unleashed a noisy & noxious wave of gas, **** and splashing water.

Now I understand - sometimes there's no holding it, and if you came scurrying into the bathroom and frantically slammed the door, threw off the belt, sat down and began ****ting then fine, kind of sucks to be me to have to be next to all this but I get where you're coming from. Have at it. But if you obviously have no urgency, then can't you wait 5 more minutes and come back later? It is not enjoyable to have you 16 inches away, separated by one thin piece of plastic, producing odors and sounds that we as a society all agree are incredibly unpleasant. If it's no skin off your back, how about conducting your business in privacy in a few minutes rather than locking me in as co-pilot?

As a corollary, if you are in the stall ****ting, and I walk in to take a piss, I'd really appreciate it if you paused for 75 seconds to let me get in-and-out. Again, your bodily functions are not something I relish hearing in tight quarters. If you're in a high-traffic bathroom and there are going to be people in and out every minute then I get it, you'd never get anything done if you paused for each newcomer. But if you know that you're likely to get all the time you need all to yourself as soon as I leave, can't you spare me the ass symphony?

Note I believe firmly that this should piss me off, but my wife assured me that it's an insane POV so here seemed like a fine spot to rant.

A few days ago I haerd a guy at my table say that an overpair is only a 60/40 favorite against an under. I smiled.

the fact that you would expect me to hold back my **** pisses me off
