Then they pick the most interesting best and worst to go in front of the top Simon, Randy, and Paula. Think about it, would the Simon sit through all of those thousands of people?
So some of those people who are bad singers are told that they get to make it to the round with the 3 judges Simon, Randy, and Paula. So these people are given false hope that they are better singers than a lot of the people there because they can get judged. But instead the bad singers are JUST advanced for TV and to get made fun of. Simon watches the tapes of the people and sees pictures before they even go up in front and sing so they can plan what bad things he can say. The first day they slipped up. How did Simon know about the blond/tanned girl's mother when she wasn't even on the stage? I think it's rude to just put people out there to make fun of them. I think they're just out to humiliate people in the first few weeks. Where are the morals in that?

I agree !! I don't like the show a bit ( especially this year) until it gets into the real
talent and then I love it. Sorry Jo !!!

People with no manners, kids with no manners who aren't corrected by their parents,
Smoking,
when my boyfriend leaves the drawers open in the kitchen, or his wardrobe open, HOW HARD IS IT TOO SHUT IT!!!!!


I'm sure I had so many more lol

Oh I am right there with you on the eating things.. MY BF, when he is hungry or has had a few Cocktails,, Oh it's ugly, I have gotten up and left the room before, cause if I comment, he has a reason for it,, a stupid reason but a reason non the less,, Like when he takes a huge bite, "Im hungry". Or if he scrapes his teeth,, " it's hot" I say.. "WAIT"! Oh ,I could really go on, but I will say it's not like he's and animal.. and he doesn't do it all the time, so that is just as irritating,,cause then I know he does know how to eat properly.

OMG~ I just experienced another one.
I work at a Auto Body SHop, at times we can have 20-30 cars in the shop. People call or come in the office and just stand there, and say "Is my car done?" OK... I wanna scream... " ANd YOU ARE?" or "AND YOU DRIVE A ??"
Oh it drives me nuts,, I wanna say ,, "does it look like we have one car here?"
Oh I just had to put this one cause I just had it on the phone... I said " Pauls Body Shop" and the voice on the other line said " hey, is my car ready?" I also wanna say " SURE" then they show up and I wanna say,, " Oh, you didn't say who you were and I thought you were someone else." No, your car isn't done...

Some more...

From my years spent working in food service, one of my greatest pet peeves is when people don't hand you money. If customers would throw the money on the counter, I would make a big production of picking up each item one at a time and being sure the flatten out the bills and make sure they're all facing the same way. I think it's so disrespectful- just hand the cashier the darn money!

I also hate when cashiers are too busy with personal conversations to actually greet me when I enter a store or speak to me while waiting on me. I'm not asking for a new best friend, just a "hi", "How are you?", "did you find everything okay?"...

Smudgers Mum- I also hate that. It's like IM and email have created their own language! I belong to another board and I don't even bother to read a certain member's posts because I can't read or understand them! If you want to communicate with me- communicate in full thoughts, with all of the proper letters to the best of your ability! I'm not the best speller by any means, but I give it my best try and don't write sentences like "wut r u doin 2nit?" If it's too much effort, then why bother in the first place?

No! You dont drive me nuts. I can figure out what you're trying to say. It's okay once in a while, I'm guilty. I just don't like it when it's over done. When it gets to the point where it takes me 10 minutes to "decode" what people are trying to say it gets annoying! I dun tink U R ignorant!

Someone just reminded me of another:
Keeping a schedule: I need an itenary for weekends. M-F rarely has changes but I am an organized, schedule freak for trips and weekends. I try to not let it but there are times when it IRKS the hell out of me when people cannot solidfy their plans and stick to them. UGH!!! lol

Amen, I'm the same way, organized,and everything planned, and when people aren't like that, I can't understand why not. It's so much easier.

What drive me nuts is :

Peoples who talk too much for nothing .

Peoples that make tempest in a teapot .

Peoples chewing with their mouths open .

Women that put too much perfume on .

Raechelle, I would drive you NUTS!!! I NEVER schedule weekends! I feel like everything is so routine through the week that weekends and Holidays are wide open!!

On weekends we start the day with, "What do you feel like doing today?". I rarely ever commit when someone wants to make plans early in the week! We'll get in the car to go out for lunch and decide where we're going while we're on the way.

Hubby is even worse! He's been known to ask me in the car while on the way to the airport, "Now, where is this that we're going?". Then I fill him in.

Yep!! We would make you crazy!
