Pet Peeves

[Austin's Mom]

Blowing the nose at the dinner table---uuugghhhh!.....and people do it in public too!

I absolutely agree! It's the most disgusting thing. And it seems to happen to me every time I go out to eat. Some people have no class. I'd like to send my son over to them and let him fart. See how they like it.

I have a few

*people who talk to you on the phone while they are eating!!!!! I hate all those chewing sounds

*people yapping on their cell phones while checking out at the store or doing business at the bank, etc. pay attention to what you are doing

*people who don't pick up after their dogs. I had a neighbor who did this all the time until I put the poopy gift on his front steps!!!

boy, that feels good to get off my chest

Oh wait- I have another one. People who mistake Boxers for Pitbulls or Bulldogs or any other breed. Whenever they do that I look at them square in the eye and say "It isn't a Pitt, he is an overgrown Poodle." Then I walk off while they stay behind, scratching their heads.

My biggest pet peeve is politics related...

(Just a minute...I need to finish biting my nails. Now I am slurping my coffee and chewing gum..quite loudly I might add. Oops, I let one go, oh well).

A side note...blowing noses...don't you love how people blow into handkerchiefs and put it back in their pocket?

Okay, now my pet peeve. I get extremely angry at people from "both sides of the aisle" who think that the other side can do no right, and they can do no wrong. Yes, I have a favorite side, but let's be real. President Bush is not perfect, nor is always wrong. Bil Clinton did alot of stupid things, but he also succeeded in many areas.

But now we have politicians who think that they cannot compliment the opposite party. In Michigan here, the governor signed some bill which made it mandatory to show pregnant mothers their ultrasound. The person quoted on the radio said that it made no difference, so it was okay that she did it. Gimme a break! If she had been of the opposite party, he would have made it a huge issue! I cannot stand such hypocrisy!

There I had may say...thank you. (burp)

 

[Gin&Dex]

I HATE LIARS!!! I work with a girl who lies constantly (about everything) and I can't stand it. She thinks she's "better than everyone else" too.

Rude cashiers who don't say "hello" or "thank you" (the ones that ring up your purchase, never look you in the eye or say one word... and they just throw the receipt in the bag)... like I'm causing an imposition on them (when that is their job)!! (I don't want to have a conversation with these folks, but geez, a "hello" would be nice?)

People talking loudly on cell phones in restaurants... at the bank... at the pharmacy, etc. and annoying/loud ring tones.

And pretty much everything everyone else has already said!

 

[K8IE]

I forgot one... People who treat the "help" rudely. I know what it is like to wait tables, clean houses, scoop poop, and work in retail. I guess the biggest peeve is when people treat servers rudely at restaurants. Even if I were a total snob I would NEVER be rude to my server. They deal with your food and I don't want a goober in my soup...

You must shop at Wal-Mart. They never say thank you.

Right now my pet peeve are these city councils that think breed banning and restrictions need to be placed on all dogs of certain breeds because of a few irresponsible owners. They go off half cocked without doing all the proper research and some of these city ordinances are actually unconstitutional.

LMAO--Autumn & I have started to do this at the dog park when we take Gracie, Tank & Dozer! so this is on my list too!

MY PET PEEVES:

People who don't pay attention at the dog park! And untrained, unruly, obnoxious dogs at the park!

People who don't cover their mouths/nose when sneezing! Disgusting & Rude!

People who call you, and then carry on conversations with someone else in the room on their end of the phone line! My MIL does this--makes me want to reach thru the line and strangle her with the phone cord--lucky I use a cordless phone!

People who cut you off with "I know, but..." when NO, THEY DIDN'T KNOW or I wouldn't have to tell them! Stop with the excuses! which leads to my next peeve...

People who make excuses rather than just admit they didn't know, or forgot, or were just plan wrong...just be honest, admit your mistake, and move on! Stop with the lame excuses!

People who bite/scrap their forks when eating. *shudder*

People who use poor english and excessive slang--in professional or work situations. Grrrr.....save it for the streets!

People who are rude to waiters or waitstaff.

People who leave lousy tips!

Rude sales clerks or customer service staff. Especially obnoxious sullen teens working behind the counter!

Or worse--clerks and customer service/counter helpers too busy having their own conversations with coworkers/friends to do their job!

Tall people who sit right in front of me in the movie theatre when there are plenty of other seats! and people who talk throughout the movie..i can hear you "whispering"!!!!!!

Closed-minded idiots who are too rigid and afraid to even entertain the possibility that there may be another point of view.

People who drive slow...especially in the fast lane. I will run you down one day!

Baggy pants hanging down below your skivvies! PULL YOUR PANTS UP!

which also brings me to "visible thongs"--yuck! they are underwear, keep them under your clothes!

Out of control children in public places...sorry to the parents...this drives me nuts! They're your kids, control them or take them home! Especially children running around a restaurant--mcdonalds is one thing...a "nice" restaurant is a whole other thing. if they can't seat,eat nice and behave, get a sitter!

oohh...I am getting aggravated just thinking of all the things that bother me...which is alot! people in general tend to piss me off!

Oh Gosh! This reminds me of something that happened at Wal-Mart. I was shopping there and this cashier was ticked off at one of the managers. Well, I go up to her and she was ringing up some of my stuff and she slams my things in the cart. I ask her to stop nicely and she just gives me the dirty eye and slams down the next bag harder. The nerve of some people!

 

[Roxie'sMommy]

People who are fake!!!!!!!!! There are many more but I will get annoyed just thinking about them.
