Pet Peeves??

[Chelsey]

Where do i start, i have MANY PP.

Parents, that cant keep their kids under control.
Cheeky kids, that big mouth the parents, and they laugh it off, or think it's cute!!
Kids with sticky dirty hands climbing all over the place!
People that show no respect, undignified people. Pleople that are so full of themselves that dont listen to others.
When people leave their table manners at the door, smacking with food, talking with full mouths, totally puts me off!!!!
Clothes that are too tight, too small, thongs sticking out of low cut jeans, and to crown it all.... short tops, low cut jeans, and flabby's hanging out from the sides YUK!!!!!
Dirty feet!!! Dirty nails!!!
Drivers that think the roads belong to them!!!!
2faced people, liars, totally disgust me!!

my biggest pet peeve at the moment is when people call my job and hear me say our company name when I answer the phone and then proceed to ask me questions when they are trying to call a completely different company! I mean, come on people, I say "good morning, infousa".. if you are calling for AES, hang up the damn phone! But no, instead they proceed to complain to me that they can't pay their loans or they want to arrange payments... and some just call and say "I'm calling about a letter i got in the mail"... umm, if I was AES, you'd probably need to be a little more specific than that!

.....and another thing that really bothers me is whiners...or people that you have to walk on eggshells around 'cause you never know what is going to upset them.

I have soooo many.

1. Smackers who have a full mouth of food and then talk.

2. Kids making out at the mall.

3. People with their big dogs off leash at the park when there is a sign stating leashes are required.

4. Rude people.

5. Unruley kids, especially throwing tantrums in a nice restaurant - like we want to listen to it.

6. Bikers who use the crosswalk - they are not pedestrians!!

7. People who pass gass in a store, and you walk down the aisle (although that is usually my DH).

8. People talking in a movie theatre while the movie is on.

9. Blinkie boys.

10. Drunk drivers!!!

11. Kids wasting their talents.

[For My Coby]

Ditto on the bad shopping carts!! I mean, yes I know that I'm saving money at Wal-mart, but I didn't realize it came directly from their savings on the crappy-cheap shopping carts they buy! My husband laughs because I ooooh and aaaaah whenever we go to Jewel or Schnucks and I push a "real" cart.

Also, I JUST HATE it when my husband says stupid things like, "All the lights are on upstairs, is someone up there?" when we're the only people at home. Or "I hear the washer running, is someone doing laundry?" when, again, we're the only people home and it's obvious that someone is doing laundry.

Oh, and unruly kids. Mine weren't, so I think I'm a little short in the patience department there.

Here's mine:
1. When someone calls me on the phone and then proceeds to speak to their kids or husband or anyone else around them at their house instead of talking to me........YOU called ME, speak to me for gosh's sakes. My time is valuable, too.
2. I'm with the other road ragers. When someone pulls out in front of you, flyin, and then slows down. Also, on a 2 lane road when 2 people drive the same mph so no one can get around them. This is me every day on my way to work, I'm about to make up some signs that say.....FAST lane.......Slow lane, with arrows.
3. I dislike interrupters, if I'm having a conversation with someone, and someone else just walks right up and starts talking about something else.
4. Pregnant people who complain. Me and so many others only wish we felt your turmoil..... Always realize how blessed you are.
Oh Lord, I'd better stop, I think I could go on all night!

[paulapoo]

Had to add one more.....

When people are completely helpless. They say "can you hand me that" and it's literally 2 feet away from them,, Get it yourself!!!! That makes me sound bad, but you wouldn't believe how many people at my work do that.
Also, people that ask where something is, when they haven't even looked for it.

Usually I won't say anything the first time & usually not even the second. The third I'll say something nice like, please don't pat me on the head...I'm an adult & don't like that. If they STILL don't get the idea, I"m done being nice about it & that's when they get a new one! I have a relative who FINALLY got the idea after being told at least 100 times to STOP IT!!! This probably seems stupid to all of you, but it really does bug me.

[Peters]

people that smoke around their kids or dont tend to them !

[BLowry]

I have a few of them but I think the one that bugs me the most is people who don't know what YEILD means...I actually had to go all around a rotary......again to avoid an accident and THEN....when I honked my horn and waved my special finger the person looked at me like I did something wrong...I swear if some of these people had to go for their license again they would never pass...


also..people who talk with food in their mouth
people that stink (we have one of these at work!)
people that talk over you when you are talking...like what they have to say is more important than what you are saying.
people that think they are better than everyone else...


WOW! guess I got a little carried away!!

[abbie's mom]

Cologne-wearing nurses when you're stuck in a hospital bed, and CAN'T get away from them! I am highly allergic to many fragrances.

Smoking in public places. "Hellllllllllo!" it's been well documented that second-hand smoke is MORE DANGEROUS than sucking the stuff in firsthand. Why should non-smokers get lung cancer because YOU crave nicotine?

Finding the perfect parking spot, only to find it already occupied by a shopping cart! gggrrrrrr!!! I always (yes, always) put away my cart - no matter what kind of rush I may be in.

Misspellings in published pieces. What are editors doing these days?

I have another one:

When I can't find something and my husband says, "Where did you leave it?" If I knew that, it wouldn't be lost!!!! I tell him that every time I am looking for something, and, still, he continues to ask me every time!!!

LOL!!!!!!!

[pepe mint]

ok, i thought of another one too

hubby is the WORST about this..

he will walk in the room "honey...do you know where ________________ is??"

and my response is "I'm sure I can find it just as easily as you could".

it just irritates me when he asks me to look for something....knowing I will have to go and look through the closet or something like that....and he could do it just as easily as me. Why should I have to go and look for something that HE wants but is too lazy to look for it???

Looks like driving and husbands are pretty high-ranking categories.
