I have five... is this allowed?

1. Hypocritical people

2. People who read the entire TV Guide and know every TV show yet don't read a voter pamphlet and have no idea who their local representatives are.

3. People who don't know the difference between a debate and a personal attack.

4. Bad grammar and punctuation.

5. Politicians who tout themselves as "intelligent and educated" yet rape the environment and wallow in their ignorance and myopia.

OK, in no particular order:

1. People who talk on a cell phone while driving.
2. Office gossips.
3. People who bring their unruly kids to fancy restaurants, bars,or other public places.

I could make a much longer list, but here goes....

1) Drivers who accelerate when someone passes them, and then slow back down.

2) Fishermen who hike to lovely remote spots, and then leave behind all the wrappers for their bait and tackle, cigarette butts, and beer cans. (This weekend, on my way from the stream to my car, I picked up three grocery bags of trash, including socks, a shoe, umpteen cigarette packs, and a sticky mousetrap(?!) Grrrrr!!!!!!!)

3) People who scalp concert tickets!

Sorry, I have to add one more:

4) People who routinely turn their lack of planning into your emergency.

1) Rude Customer Service (All rude people for that matter)

2) Irresponsibility (People that always blame everyone and everything but themselves...People that keep having children when they are already on welfare...people that spend all their money then cant pay their bills...things like that)

3) Drivers who get road rage from the slightest infraction.


This is more than a pet peeve but here goes anyway... child, elderly and animal abuse. The thought of an adult taking their anger out on the innocent makes me sick.

1. People who call me on the phone and then have nothing to say (They say hello, then expect you to carry the conversation)

2. Sunday Drivers On the Highways (you know the ones on the highways that are driving way too slow, but are taking in the scenery)

3. People who are not genuine and honest

I am in total adn absolute agreement with these by Elsa!!

Here are my three:

1. People talking on their speaker phone when in their cube!

2. People doing anything with food in their mouth!

3. Having to listen to other peoples lives, ie... very loud car music, someone on their cell phone talking very loud in a store and so on!

And one more for kicks:

People who bring their small kids to movies that aren't rated G and then having them (loudly) ask "mommy what's going on?" "Daddy what is he doing to her?" "I don't understand?"

That one really burns me up!!!!!

I guess this means we'll never be roommates! :LOL: Please don't hate me, I can't help it! I don't do it to be annoying, I'm just a happy sort, and I catch myself singing, humming, or whistling constantly. (I rarely dance down the hallways though....gotta draw the line somewhere....)

I never thought about it bothering people. I once read about a study in Reader's Digest, where some university spent a million dollars on a study which found that people who whistle or sing at work are less efficient.
Sure, but do they live longer, with fewer health problems and lower stress disability rates????? Huh??? ;)
