You are in a running road race (fun run) and someone you do not know keeps passing you, then slowing, then passing, etc and it is irritating. You:

Get over it, ignore it
Say to them "Make up your Mind, you are annoying me"
Say "Can you please run somewhere else"
Curse aloud in general, drawing attention
or
Slow right down till they are out of sight and never run in a race again

 

[Vash01]

Disagree (but may be her contract required it)

Would you buy a $100 ticket for

A Paul McCartney concert

NAY - You feel exhausted after the 20th guy comes to your table.

Why aren’t the Canadian men not more competitive in FIFA footie?

The sport isn’t popular enough in the country to cultivate enough quality talent among the children.
or
CONCACAF is an insanely hard region to qualify out of. 3-4 spots and you already have nations like Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the United States.
or
Lack of quality coaching and/or training facilities.
or
Who cares? Soccer sucks and hockey rules!
