Pet Peeves

[Roxy'sNewMom]

I didn't reply to this thread because I have loads of peeves but tonight while I was trying to unwrap the oven foil that had a snag in it causing it not to unwrap and come away in bits I got so mad that I threw it in the bin and thought of this thread!

That is just toooo funny. I have done this also.

People who bring young kids to an R rated movie. Or people who bring young kids into the midnight showing.

Seriously, I've seen toddlers crying and scared stiff because their dumb#*^ parents thought it would be a great idea to take them to see King Kong (or a movie of the sort).

Along those lines, for black Friday, why do people insist on bringing their baby out and standing in below freezing temps for hours?? This past BF, I saw at least three people doing this, the one couple had their 3 week old baby out there:eek: I was relieved when someone standing in line behind the people told them to go sit in the car with the baby and they would hold their place in line! Stupid people, shopping could never be that important, stay at home where you belong with your babies!!!

hehe, just caught this thread. reading about everyone else's pet peeves really makes me feel better.... cause i know i'm not the only one that can't stand something!
i work in customer service and i hate it when people are on their phones, and they still expect you to say "excuse me, can i get you something?" i skip them, and help the person next in line that is ready and paying attention. then the person that was on the phone is like "excuse me, i was next" no you weren't you were too busy for me... so wait. grrrr... happens AT LEAST once a day. i want to put up a sign that says something about talking on cell phones = no service from us.
i also hate ALL drivers. drivers that are reckless, drivers that are overly cautious, people who don't wear their seatbelts (i lost 2 friends from this, so i'm a huge advocate for seatbelt use now), people that don't signal, people who don't use the middle turning lane, or get all the way over in the lane, so you are forced to go on the shoulder to pass them, people who block intersections, like i said ALL DRIVERS.
i hate it when people read over my shoulder (BF just did this... ... now he's mad at me for writing this)
people who ask stupid questions, (once i was working at a restaurant and someone seriously asked me what the difference was between a quarter pounder and half pounder... my response was "about a quarter of a pound")
people who are not aware of their surroundings.
people who go the wrong way in the parking lot (there are big yellow arrows on the road for a reason)
wow... and now i'm getting annoyed at myself cause i have so many pet peeves.

I know this sounds extremely petty but I can't stand it when co-worker's hand me paperwork and they put the paper clips on backwards. For some reason this drives me absolutely nuts where I can't stand it and it gets on my very last nerve. I am sure that most of you are thinking to yourself is there a right way or a wrong way? Backwards to me is the small part in front. Also ANY plastic paper clips go straight in the trash.

I can certainly relate to that, I can be a little obsessive compulsive on some things.
Okay the pet peeves, passing gas in public, belching very loudly in public, picking noses in public, allowing children to run and get into things and act like everyone thinks its cute because they are a child. Don't get me wrong I love children, that is my way of making a living is caring for them, but when in public and someone lets there child go to a buffet and pick the food up with their fingers just grits right through me. The same thing with dogs, we have a neighbor that allows their dogs to poop in our yard and then has the gall to say they hired a person to mow their lawn because they don't like stepping in all that dog poop...HELLO the poop is in our yard. I have so many more but don't want to take up a whole page.

I have a few Pet Peeves too:

*Tailgaters!! Esp if I'm already going 10 over the speed limit!!! Often I will slow down to about 5 below the speed limit, thinking/hoping they'll get off my ass & pass! F*ers!

* People who have a 100 of items to check out at the grocery store but stand in the 20 items or less line.

* When the neighbors let their visitors jump up on the side of my privacy fence & look over!!!

* NOSEY PEOPLE

* When people talk to you like your an idiot & know nothing, esp those store workers, like Lowe's!

* When people blow their horn at someone they know, just to wave at them!

I could go on & on forever.........

After being woken up at 5:20am because of total inconsideration, here's another one!
- people who cannot get out of their cars to go ring a doorbell or knock on a door, but instead sit their lazy butts in the car laying on the horn!! Get a clue!! :mad:
-also, ladies...how bout those guys that fly by you in a car doing about 50mph, beep the horn at you and yell a little cat call! What are we to do...run after the idiot in the car begging him to please come back, while attempting to write down the plate# so we can track this ever so thoughtful person down and thank him for noticing us and making us feel so attractive, and maybe, just maybe, they'll do us the honor of marrying us and giving us the life we always wanted?? Geesh...PALEEZE!!
-and for the guys who hang out the passenger window of a car yelling at girls and telling them they have big butts or they are fat...guess what? You're a "SCRUB" and no one cares what you think! :mad:

*ya, I had a great weekend*

Pet peves: People who own roosters in the city, also people who rub pregnant bellies with out asking, and worse people who say when are you due to people who aren't expecting! The worst people who are afraid of dogs!

mine at the moment is people who get pregnant on the drop of a hat, already have 6 kids to 6 different fathers and are on welfare with no interest of getting off it and then take the kids who are never clean or dressed nicely to the shopping centres and stand and scream and curse at them and rough handle them - they just dont appreciate the fact that they are able to have the wonderful gift of children - i always feel like i want to go and slap them in the head and make them realise how precious it is to have kids it really irratates me.

the other is people doing the same to animals or giving them up to shelters just because they dont want to put the time and effort into them but i know alot of you guys feel the same on this one.
