People who stop in the middle of the parking lot to check their phone (happened to me 30 minutes ago) and don't even look up when have to pass them.
People with their cell phone to their ear while driving - they will either drive too slowly, not stay in the same lane, or worse.
Walmart.
Grocery store line where the person in front of you checks every item as it's scanned, sends the cashier for a price check, and then waits for the total before they pull their checkbook out of their purse.
Checkbooks. Haven't you heard of check cards?
Ugly Americans. If you don't know what that is, it's an American overseas that behaves badly, sometimes acting entitled, usually loud, always obnoxious. I was on vacation with someone once in another country and she went ballistic because this little Mom and Pop store out in the country wouldn't accept her American dollars. When I questioned her as to why they should being we weren't exactly in Kansas anymore, she said "because they live off our tourist dollars".
Walmart. It deserves to be on the list twice.
It's a little over an hour north of Bemidji, but so worth it. I have totally explored Tamarac Wildlife Refuge. I have a friend who has a house & acreage in the woods right on the border of the refuge.
My MIL lives in Osage about 30 miles east of DL and her house is just on the outskirts of town and only a mile from the Two Inlets State Forest & only about 15 miles from the southern part of Itasca State Park. We visit Itasca at least once a summer and also try to make it up there during peak autumn leaf season so we can climb the fire tower and be blown away by the explosion of fall colors as far as the eye can see. If you go our there on a clear or mostly clear day the lakes that are visible in the distance are bright blue/aqua and that contrast is so stunning. It is such a large park and has so much to offer.
I think it's highly likely that THOSE people have unblocked everyone - not sure it's ALL about you ![]()

You have a very valid point. I do have one person blocked on OH simply because her daily posts are not related to anything regarding weight loss and do not offer anything valuable.
And time is valuable. So much is repetitive and not very helpful or interesting.
I liken the personalities of the posters to genres of literature. So many books, so little time and some genres are more attractive to me than others. My husband LOVES science fiction; it bores me to tears. I love historical fiction. When I read a real good one, I know he will not be reading it next. When we go to a bookstore, we don't even walk down the same aisles. And that's OK![]()
I usually block out of annoyance, but currently have zero people blocked.
BTW, not to sound like a pretentious grammar ***** but it's "faze" not "phase". Sorry, it's just one of my pet peeves! ![]()

Don't sweat it. The group of royals here routinely block to affirm their superiority and are known to then post about you knowing that it is probable you won't see it and not able to respond. Character issues. Others block due to finding posting styles annoying. I have only 1 blocked, and it is due to his giving me crap about my cancer status. The others who block me... don't even bother trying to figure out who they are. So don't let it FAZE you- just own your path and travel it wisely!

There was someone here a few months ago - I can't remember the screen name - that blocked an entire group of people, even those with whom she never had any interaction. Guilt by association, I guess you would call it.
From my perspective, you can't really know or judge people if you bury your head in the sand. Unless you rely on others to tell you how to think. I think that's sad. ![]()
Um, I have blocked people without interacting with them. This is mostly because they are either so nasty or so stooopid, that I will not waste my precious time on them. Blocking saves me from having to scroll past them. I have a pretty high tolerance level, yet once that threshold is crossed... Everyone here has the right to post whatever they want, and I have the right not to read it.
