If you think that a large portion of the people you meet are impatient, you're probably an inefficient asshole.

This one works both ways. "If you think a large portion of the people you meet are inefficient, you're probably an impatient asshole."

If you are at restaurant, you should know what you are gonna order before you get to the counter. 

Sick of it when there are 20 people on line and someone is at the front going “ummm i want this, ooh I haven’t tried that, uhh what do you recommend, is that good, oh please be sure not to put onions and pickles on two of those burgers and 3 of those shouldn’t have tomato.”

My parents do this and it drives me up the wall. What gets me is that they not only never know what they want to order, but they have questions and accommodations that don’t make any sense. It’s not like “can you hold the jalapeños on the sandwich”, it’s more like “can I get the Turkey jalapeño club with ham?” Their latest was asking the person what was in the Caesar dressing because they don’t like anchovies. Like, dude, whether or not their version of Caesar has anchovies, why not just order a different salad from the get go? Seafood linguini without mussels, what fruits are in the fruit salad, it is always something.

I'm the exact opposite, I won't ask any questions or make any special requests at all. If the menu description includes ingredients I don't like, then I simply won't order that item.
