What are your pet peeves?

People who start "what are your pet peeve" threads. :laugh2:

I can't believe the waiter just took that.

I would have hurt that jerk in a very bad way.

I'm pretty sure he acted that way because of the waiters demeanor. An easy target to look like a tough guy on. Trust me that clown doesn't want his designer suit and styled hair mussed up.

It's scripted too. That explains the Kardashian women's lame reaction.

My biggest pet peeve is people who are oblivious to the whole world around them.

For instance when there is a left turn lane, but they don't get in it to turn left. So all the traffic in the left go lane backs up behind them because they don't understand what a turn lane is. I am almost equally annoyed when they do use the turn lane but only after slowing way the hell down and meandering left into it rather than getting in it then slowing down.

Or someone who can manage to make grocery aisle one person wide by meandering slowly right in the middle of the aisle unaware of people trying to get by.

Or someone in line to pay for the groceries who lets the cashier ring everything up then starts to write the check or pulls out an envelope full of coupons to see if any of them save them some money this time.

I hate drivers who think the fast lane on the highway is their private lane and you have to pass them on the right. In Utah you can get seriously fined if you get caught doing that. I wish that policy was nationwide and the fines were high. I think that is far worse than speeding. If I know someone is traveling faster than I am, I make sure to move over to let them by, even if I have to slow down for traffic in that lane when I do. It is a simple courtesy that requires almost no effort.

Text messaging. I have nothing good to say about it, and I don't want people to tell me why they love it. Call me, send me an e-mail, or write me a letter. I don't have text messaging, I never will have it unless a job demands it, and I hate everything about it. Especially the piss poor grammar it causes. The word "prolly" is probably the most annoying thing I have ever seen. I honestly would love to filter that word here, but it is not a curse word so I don't.

Yeah, I hate bad grammar, spelling, and punctuation. I am the worst grammar policeman on this site, but I try not to correct everyone. It takes every bit of self control I have because it is so annoying. I can run across a post of mine with a typo that is weeks or months old and I will correct it even if I know no one will ever see it again. I hate looking ignorant and don't understand why more people aren't appalled at themselves when they do.

People who curse in public like everyone around them wants to hear their potty mouths. I think the lack of shame in people is grotesque.

People who let their dogs bark non stop. I love dogs, but if your dog is barking, find out why and if it is nothing, stop the dog.

There are a lot more but I don't want to make this a novel.

Is it really?
It's funny how these 'reality' shows are really nothing of the sort, like that Bully show that is just BS too.

All reality shows are scripted. Not throughout the whole thing, but anytime where a situation can lead to drama, they'll script it that way.

But was that waiter an actor or really an unwitting participant?
I know in that Bully show the so-called bullies are stuntmen and not at all who they're playing out to be.

Reading this site must send you in to hissy-fits!?

Some posters still do yes but it was much worse in the political zone before it was shut down.

Stupid drivers

There's a intersection where know at least 4-5 cars are going to run the light turning in front of you every single time. So what makes your time more important than mine? I try not to ever run lights where it makes other people wait.

lol i use prolly a lot

i feel the same way on everything except for texting. I'm not a phone person, like someone else's pet peeve of lengthy phone convos it seems everyone i know just talks and wants to stay on the phone and ask this, that, and the other, i have no problem with this face to face but the phone is impersonal to me. with texting its straight to the point.

hey what time is the movie?

10

cool see you there.

done. to the point

edit* sorry for telling you why i love texting lol

-- When a waiter or server at a restaurant 1) lets my water glass get empty, and 2) takes my glass away to go fill it up. Just bring me a freakin' pitcher.

-- Standing in line at a convenience store and the idiot in front of me decides, at the last second, to buy some lottery tickets. But he or she isn't sure which ones to buy (their all so colorful and pretty), and they begin to ponder this dilemma the only way a 75-IQ person can ... very slowly.

-- Don't ever put food in front of me and then take it away for any reason. My lovely wife has learned this. "It's warm enough ... just step away."

-- Slow movers at the grocery store, and people who can manage to park their shopping cart at such a perfect angle at a junction of two aisles that they can block the most amount of people from getting by.

-- People who listen to the TV too loud. I spend a lot of time at home either turning the TVs down or telling the kids to do it.

-- When drunk guys put their hands on me.

-- Barking dogs.

Cool if they are sober though?

 

[Hoofbite]

Any place that doesn't have a smoking ordinance banning smoking in restaurants. I've lived the last 10+ years in places that don't allow smoking in restaurants and whenever I go to a place that does, I pretty much lose my appetite.

 

[SLATEmosphere]

Mr/Ms Encyclopedia people who think they know everything and want to argue everything but are just really idiots.

People who leave shopping carts in parking spaces.

People backing out of a parking space and leaving the wrong way.

Grown *** men selling candy door to door for a "cause"

Knowing you can make a yellow light but the car in front of you is a wimp and stops so you have to.

 

[Chief]

Cool if they are sober though?

When drunks talk to you, they tend to put their hands on your shoulders and rock you back and forth, or shake you, and talk way too loud.

"Come on, man, isn't this great! Party, man!"

I didn't even know there were still places that allowed smoking in restaurants. There's not many things I hate more than breathing in cigarrette smoke while trying to eat.

 

[jimmy40]

idiots that get on the highway going less than the speed limit.
