I want to know your Pet Peeves!

[verwon]

That's right, I want to know what annoys you so bad that you have to grit your teeth and hope you have the strength to keep your mouth shut!

For example, do you hate it when someone always leaves the toilet seat up? Or how about leaving it down or insisting it always be put back down?

Maybe you have to have your toilet paper or paper towels hanging a certain way? Or you can't stand when someone just thinks it is okay to take a drink from your cup or glass, thinking you will just drink after them without a thought?

Let me know, post them here or email me at [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]

I am working on this for a DOD newsletter, so you might just see your most irritating in a future newsletter!

[katlnhats]

Ouch! Where to start?
Mine all have to do with people and the way they act.
Rudeness definitely, especially when you're a friendly person.
Dishonesty....
Uncaring people.
Just about everyone shopping in Walmart, lol, here I am.. going along, trying to push the carriage so I don't have to use one of those riding things, cuz I'm BAD on them and knock many things down, so I'm leaning on the carriage and have my cane on the top of it - people still push, shove, complain and all of that as I can't go as fast as the people who are rushing all over the place do.
I'm disabled, not stupid! lol
I don't care if someone leaves the toilet seat up, even if I fall in, as they'll be getting me out of it!!!!!!!! (and cleaning up the splashes too!)
I'm sure I have many more, those came off the top of my head!

I don't like when people eat loudly and talk with a mouthful of food.
People that are in a hurry and pull out in front of you while driving and then go slow grrrr.....

[hmsram]

Being in a restroom and people just walk straight on out with out washing their hands.....
And People that dig in their nose at stop lights... (sorry I know its gross) but for real do they really think no one sees them at that busy intersection

Oh and people who are not handicapped and park in the handicapped spots...that really ticks me off and I do speak up... Just the other day at the post office a FedEx truck parked in a handicap spot and I called and reported him....and the operator assured me the driver had no reason to take that spot... ....
Well guess thats enough for now... LOL surely I can think of more

And the people that park in the fire lane, or loading only, or the area (which is not designated as parking) near the store [whatever it may be called at the place]. It's not a parking space; don't park there!

Ahhhhh, the good 'ol days when I was, what 12'ish?, I sent in (one of those ads in the back of magazines probably or something, for "parking tickets" that basically told the people (in a PG way) what someone thought of their choice of "parking space" LOL....I should make some of those up again, of course, I don't know what they said...but could come up with something....

Oh, yes, and another Pet Peeve....well at least something that I don't think should be anyone's pet peeve (so I guess that classifies as my pet peeve?): People that get peeved when the toilet seat is left up. First off, look before you sit! Secondly, I think the seat should be put down; I also think the seat should be put down as well. (Which would mean that everyone would obviously have to look and lift it up.) Maybe some do, but I don't see the toilet as the most attractive fixture in a house! lol The lid down helps it be less unattractive...not to mention, with the lid down, the possibility of dropping things in there is reduced exponentially!

[flash3992]

1. Anything that displeases M'Lady.

2. Toilet paper put on the holder upside down. It should be pulled from the top!

3. Men who still pee on the seat! Ya lift the lid, pee, and as you reach for the flush handle with your left hand, with your right hand ya put the freakin' seat down!

4, People that do not use turn signals!

5. Black Friday. (I won't even go to the grocery store on that day).

6. People who spit!

7. People that throw their trash out the vehicle window. ( wish they'd seen that commercial with the Native Americian with a tear in his eye).

8. Nose picking.

9. An overweight guy with his pants so low that everytime he bends over ya see his butt crack.

10. People leaving DoD!


That's all for now. Might post more later.

You know, I never cared before...and actually still don't really since I have not kids yet....but if you put the toilet paper on the holder to be pulled from the top, little ones can easily (just by playing) unroll it onto the floor (I've noticed vents near the holder can have the same effect). But, if you put it on so it has to be pulled from under, the todler's (or vent's) playing actions will not dispense the paper. Oh, and if you have a todler that you allow to roam around places, like the bathroom, unsupervised, well, there is another good reason to put the toilet seat and lid down! (as my previous post mentioned)

People who are constantly seeking for attention are annoying. There are some people who always turn the topic to their personal matters and they are always in voice.

WHINERS we live in the greatest country in the world yet we are a country of Whiners. We have more opportunity and yet we whine. I am going to sue McDonald's they made me fat. I don't like the President I am ashamed to be from the same state as he is. I have a $25 an hour job but the boss made me mad so I am quitting and going on welfare. I am not doing that it is not my job. I cheated because, I lied because and on and on and on.

[tlspiegel]

I hate labels on the collar back of clothing tops. They drive me crazy itchy. I carefully remove them with a seam ripper, tweezers, and sharp cuticle scissors. They don't bother me on pants, but around the collar is my pet peeve.

[hmsram]

[Jennifer M.]

Drivers talking on their cell phones!!

People who illegally park in disabled spots!!

When people call me at work, ask me for a certain phone # and when I start to give it to them, they cut me off and say oh wait let me get a pencil...oh that bugs the crap outta me!!

When I answer the phone at work, say the name of our business, then they ask, is this...? and they say the name of our business!!

Or...when people call work and say your number was on my caller ID, do you know who called me? We have 32 people, I am not a mind reader...LOL

I'm sure I have more....

[Shainie]

Hmmm

The sound of rough feet on fuzzy blankets (eeek!)

People who drive slow in the left lane. It's the PASSING lane - not passing anybody? MOVE OVER!

When someone samples food off your plate while you're still eating.

When I'm talking to someone on the phone and suddenly you hear them talking to someone else in the room while you're still talking.

People who know a lane is ending, but try to get to the very front of the line. (I love when truckers cut them off.)

Cashiers who don't say anything (welcome, thank you, etc.) I even had one girl who didn't tell me my total, I was just supposed to look at the cash register to see it.

Parents who don't keep their kids in check in public. Just let them run and be loud without correcting them.

People who type in all abbreviations or purposely mispell words. "OMG U R so kewl!" (barf)

[whitequeen96]

People who "know better" than I do about how to handle or raise my kid, ESPECIALLY when they've never even been parents!

[kells3]

1. People having long conversations on their cell phones in public. Are they so important that they can't wait until they get home.

2. People that park in red zones because they are in a hurry to pick up their child, pick up their pizza etc... They also must think they are more important then everyone else who parked where they are supose to.

3. Clerks or anyone else that does not say I'm sorry when they make a mistake. Its free and can defuse a bad situation.

4. Parents that let their children skate on their Healys in the store.

Thats all I can think of right now.
