Lottery people.

You're standing in a line at the gas station or mini-mart waiting to check out, stacked a half a dozen deep.

The next person up pays for their chocolate milk then proceeds to give the cashier 7 or 8 scratch lottery cards that may or may not be winners. Of course they haven't scratched off enough of the bar code so the cashier has to take care of that. After all is said and done, they "win" $2 then decide they need to buy another scratch ticket and spend the next 5 minutes deciding which one to buy from under the glass. Top top it all off, when they get their new ticket, they decide to scratch it right there on the counter caring nothing for the now 10 people waiting in line. Then after realizing they lost, leave all that scratch crap on the counter for someone else to clean up.

Holy crap - I've never seen it quite that bad, but I've been annoyed just by being behind someone buying several scratch tickets and not being able to decide which ones. After they finally decide, THEN they start fishing around in their pickets for enough $1 bills to pay for them.

the ultimate gear grinder is when they make the attempt to pay with lincoln 'pseudo copper' coinage....

this has easily developed into a daily 'visit' thread.....

well done LS! you created the monster I so enjoy....
