    My understanding is that it’s more inclusive than pre check, yeah. But I hear it takes longer to get approved.

    I don’t know many streets where there are two lanes and the left is a turn only, but obviously nothing you can do about that.

    It's a horrible design but it's exactly how every street that feeds onto Kingwood Drive is designed. Ridiculous.

    People who show absolutely no gratitude when you do something for them. I don't need a thank you. Half a smile, a nod, simply not an attitude would suffice. Handed down the luggage from the storage compartment on the plane and they just took it, turned and walked out. Like it's my job to hand out people's luggage and wasn't trying to be a gentleman. Sigh.

    The dueling cellular ad fight between T-Mobile (Billy Bob Thornton) and ATT (Luke Wilson) vying for "who can be more folksy?"

    Sometimes it's unavoidable due to traffic in the other lane or your need to make a right shortly after the intersection.

    Truth.

    It's annoying how Microsoft took away Edge's menu highlighting everywhere after so long of having highlighting. Now, I feel like a mouse in a forest navigating around my bookmarks. Apparently, they wanted to match some new UI efforts around Copilot or something. So, no highlighting menu/submenu when you hover. The submenu just appears when hover over the item to one. I don't like not having the option to toggle.

    AI ads…they’re all garbage, and they turn me off completely from any product or message you’re selling

    political fundraising texts…Idk how you found my number, but you better lose it quick

    Going into any gas station and buying something and the clerk wants to talk instead of just ringing you up and letting you proceed about your day without a word.

    Also, there are some roads that people are flying down, such that one gets in the right lane to allow faster traffic to pass, and inadvertently gets stuck at a light in the right lane as you don't want to get over a lane in case someone guns it to run a red light.

    Having to call and speak to someone at eBay (of all places) for ten minutes to verify your account -- after you've confirmed it's really you via text authentication. ****!

    Those stop lights with the lenses on them that limit the angle that you can see them at to like ten degrees.

    Just seeing this. I thought you were better than this. I'm so disappointed.

    It's literally one of the first things I taught my kids when teaching them to drive. Don't be the dick in the right lane blocking everyone behind you from turning. Just bad karma.
