the "pet pieves" thread......

[thenuge876]

We have an on-ramp back home that is very short, its only a couple hundred yard long, so it goes by quick at 55 or 60 mph. I hate it when someone is in the right lane, sees you, and then wont move into the left lane for five freakin seconds to let you in so you dont have to step on your brakes and can merge smoothly.

Also when you are at a stop sign, and have actually STOPPED and some jacka$$ tries to roll through, sees you then slams on his brakes and waves you on after almost hitting you like hes doing you a favor.

And lastly, people who don't use prepositions....its "I'm done WITH dinner" and the despite the popular news adadges its "down AT the shore" use em, theyre free!!

My biggest pet peeve is.................people.

That pretty much sums it up. It reminds me of the saying:
"The more I get to know people, the more I like my pets ."

[wolfdogs]

my very biggest pet pieve:


tailgaters


i hate tailgaters.....i got just the right moves to slam on the brakes and hit the gas before they rear end me, some of them lose control....LOL i also use my flashers and slow down to 20mph......LOL

Another favorite of mine is people who don't use their turn signals, either changing lanes or turning. Or who don't turn them off so you have NO idea what they're doing and pretty much negate the point of a turn signal...

I love California drivers.

Hence why dog's don't talk.

ok. just list one at a time, now!!!!

*We have one micro wave oven in our little kitchenette at the office. I hate it when somebody puts something in there for lunch, starts it , walks away and forget to get thier stuff out!!!! finally somebody takes it out............. the person comes back later and reheats it..... people are lined up to use the d@mn thing~!!! gggggggrrrrrrrrrr

I bought my own for $30 at Home Depo. Don't have to use the puky one that everybody else contaminates.

My new pet peeve...getting a physical!! I turn 30 and my wife talks me into finally getting physical. I think Thanksgiving tukeys get poked and prodded less than I got today. I figured out today that I don't like Doctors. I feel dirty....

or.. for that matter *anybody* that takes forever at a sales couter because they dont have their crap together.
I waited in line at the u-haul place behind this lady for 20 minutes while she tried to rent a truck.

Oh, I was mad. I felt like going up to her and yelling: (pardon the caps)

1) WHAT SIZE TRUCK DO YOU WANT?
2) DO YOU NEED A DOLLY OR BLANKETS?
3) NOW PAY FOR IT AND MOVE ON!

My gosh, it was taking her forever.... she couldnt make up her mind about a thing. She had no idea what she even needed or wanted. I wish the "soup nazi" from seinfeld worked there.. "NO TRUCK FOR YOU!!"

I worked for a moving company this summer and you reminded me of the time I made the trip with a coworker from central PA to Philladelphia (about 4 hours) to move a couple to State College. They told us it was going to be a few boxes they packed plus two dressers. We ended up getting there and they were not packed at all and had changed there minds and decided they were taking everything. We about left on the spot but I told them their choice was let us pack and they pay for it or we leave immediately. That turned into a 22 hour day and me sneezing more times than I have in my life due to about 2 years of uncleaned cat hairs....I hate dirty and stupid people .

another one:

people at a sales counter, "checking out"..but they are on thier friggin cell phone!!! and its taking forever!!!!!!!! i feel like inserting the phone in thier (_!_)...not gently either.

When a cell phone user is in my way at the store or whatever, I just bump into them with a hard shoulder and when they get all shook up, I shout "Can you hear me now?"

My favorite pet peeve at the grocery store is the dope at the express line that writes a check and doesn't start making it out until the cashier is done. And this same idiot doesn't pack his or her groceries while they're being rung up, but waits for the cashier to do it. Also, I'm starting to hate those bulky kiddy-car grocery carts, and also the miniature carts for kids. I also hate deli meat which isn't real meat, which is about all of it. I also get irate at the old lady giving out 'homemade' meatloaf samples in the meat department. I always ask her if she made it at home. She says 'no'. Then I ask her in whose home was it made, and I just get a blank stare. Anyway, these are just my grocery store peeves.

[braindeadracefan]

On the grocery store subject... people who leave their carts in the middle of the aisle so there's no way you can get around it. And the people who try to take a layer of skin off the back of your ankle with their cart.

[Rhode Island Red]

having to repeat myself ...well repeatedly... to people who do not listen but want to carry on the conversation

I wish a good beating was legal in this circumstance!

[Steel2686]

RICERS!!!!

[thenuge876]

bout time somebody said that.

And along the grocery store line, when you find a good parking space in a crowded lot but can't park there becuase the last person left their cart in the middle of the space instead of putting in the cart depot 10 yards aways from them.

[FroSSty]

wow. Most of my peeves are alreadt listed, especially the traffic ones. You ever wonder what the pet peeves would be of that a-hole that passes everyone in the lane that is ending??? Maybe "Those dumb people who wont let me in when the lane is ending."??? How dumb can you be? Oh well, its life.

[Steel2686]

Along the traffic pet peeves line again...

Someone who pulls out in front of you, even though there is no one behind you, then proceeds to drive exactly the speed limit.

That is one of my biggest pet peeves.
