Think the change may have something to do with your list??
I've been there and done that! Thank God it's over for me.....(my family is thankful, and my c0-workers are thankful, and my boss is thankful, and my friends are thankful....... wink.gif )


My pet peeve is people who throw trash out the window of their car. I get road rage with that one!

People who let their children run amuck.
Employees who get upset when they have to do their job.

I don't have the time to sit here and write all of mine, but I totally agree with this one. They stand there the whole time while their items are being rung up and when they are told the total, THEN they get their checkbook out! It's like all of a sudden they think, "oh, I have to pay for my items?" huh.gif

Someone that's judgement of other people. When they think their right and everyone else is wrong.
momsapilot
People who can't write coherent sentences.

Similar to WVDL, people who stand in line at the library then take five minutes to dig through their purse/wallet to find their library card in order to even begin the checkout process.

People who refuse to recycle, even when the bin is right next to the trash can.

People who think Longmeadow Rd. is a drag strip.

People with cell phones implanted in their heads so they can yak nonstop and live in their own little world without ever having to truly interact with another human being.

Grocery store displays that take up half an aisle, so you need a traffic director to get to the cereal.

People who refuse to do better for themselves when there are plenty of resources available.

YES! And yes to WVD's spell check peeve!

I also agree with the cell phone peeves, but in particular people who try to drive with one hand while holding the cell phone to their ear! So if you ARE that important, haven't you ever heard of a head set??? Over the past couple of weeks I've had 2 people almost run into my car because they're busy yacking and don't realize they're drifting into my lane...MORONS!

Also, drivers that sit and wait for me (or other people) to load their bags in their car, put the cart away and then get in the car and pull out, just so they can get that particular parking spot! By the time you're done waiting for this spot, you could've found another one just as close to the front door...if not closer!!!

And while I'm at it...what's with people that just empty their trash out of their car right at the curb or in the parking lot? Yeah, that's it, don't throw it away in a trash can, just dump it out on the road! mad.gif

I'd better stop now, or I'll be here all night!

Girls that pee on toilet seats. I understand your wanting to not sit on the seat, but if you hover and therefore sprinkle all over the toilet seat, then wipe it off your damn self! You don't just piss everywhere and then leave like a drunken man!
SMan
It's possible for women to soil the seat when hovering? huh.gif

If they're going to hover, you might as well just install urinals. tongue.gif

I'd like to complain a little more about the various DNA found on public toilet seats, but I'll refrain for the sake of revealing the bad behavior of women everywhere...

Ohhh, hoverers suck! Ya know, if you don't wanna sit on the seat, then use obscene amounts of tp and one of those seat liners and wipe it down with some Purell, but just DON"T pee on it and make it worse for the rest of us who actually might not be well balanced enough to hover! ARRRGHHH!

Exactly! Personal responsibility. If you must hover and piss all over the seat, then clean up after yourself. When I come in to use the restroom after you, my having to clean up after your piss is not MY responsibility. It's your pee, you clean it up. I wouldn't have to pass judgment if you didn't leave your DNA behind!

I'm with you Heather, to me it boils down to respect. We know for well, that's their is someone that going to use that toilet afterwards. We are ladies, at least I like to think so. For me it's doing the respectfull thing. If you tingle on the seat, clean the seat up. We are not animals, if we are then we would go outside and peep.

It would be like leaving the bathroom and not washing your hands after. Would anyone do that? I would hope not.

Exactly. Like those who cannot help but waste all of our time attacking and criticising me "personally". You all mean just about NOTHING to me personally, and no matter what you might think, you don't know me or hardly anything about the real me. It would be nice if you all grew up and quit posting off-topic attacks - and then blaming me for it.

BMIC,

Go start a Blog.............

My biggest pet peeves are probably hypocrites, the intolerant, and whiners.

Say what you mean--and live what you say.

Don't assume the rest of the world has to be like you to be "right."

If you don't like your life, do something to change it. Complaining gets you nowhere.

Of course... we all have our intolerant, whining moments sometimes... I'm talking about folks who are this way all the time.

You bring it all on yourself. You set standards for other members to meet and then you fail to even do so yourself. You're nothing more than a loathsome hypocritical jerk that can't keep from putting his foot in his own mouth on these forums.

Maybe you should check eBay for some friends.

I will NOT use public restrooms. I hold myself until i get home, if i can't make it home i pull over to the side of the road sit on the guard rail and pee. I keep a roll of toliet paper in my car.

I find it safer, and cleaner to go out doors than in.............

Speaking as someone who has dodged into men's rooms when the ladies' was occupied...

In my experience, men's rooms are much yuckier and definitely smellier.

In terms of little pet peeves, probably my biggest is people who use "infer" and "imply" interchangeably.

Also, people who use "big words" just to try and sound smart... especially when they use them wrong.

I was in the store today and was reminded of one of my latest pet peeves...

Why do girls and women wear their pajamas to the store??? I find it's mostly a thing with teenage girls, but have seen women wearing them too. They've got the bottoms of their pj's draggin the ground and their slippers on while they wander the store! I just want to yell at them...GET DRESSED! dry.gif

You need to get one of these, an ashtray for your car that fits in the cupholder. They are sold in most tobacco specialty stores. You may be able to find it at Smoker Friendly in the old Ames shopping center.

Just bought a new car.... not ready to smoke in it yet... still has that new car smell... but yeah.. that cup ashtray thingy was like a 20 dollar option from the dealer.... but no cigarette lighter

Why don't people pay attention, when their backing up their car.
Is it because their to busy fixing their hair, putting make up on, or talking on the cell phone.

I guess if and when I get in a accident, it's will be because of someone not pay attention.

This is similar to rbruchey's peeve...

People (often taxis) who block the entire street waiting to let someone in (or out) of their car - when there are empty parking places right in front of the house!

Another is taxis (ok, transportation companies) who lay on the horn at 3:00 am to get the attention of the person next door who fell asleep waiting for his/her ride. Get out and knock on the door, please!!!!! mad.gif mad.gif
