Pet Peeves - What are yours?

[Black Owl]

And it is "running shoes"....not "sneakers" ---------

Sorry guy, but they are neither. They are Felony Flyers.......

[Kirby]

Down south it's always "Co-cola". Doesn't matter what it is....,Sprite, Pepsi, Mt.Dew, Dr.Pepper.

It drives me crazy standing in a grocery line and seeing people put their groceries on the counter and then watch them all get totalled up and when told the price they freeze and then start looking for their wallet as if they thought they might not get charged. All that time in line you would think they could have their form of payment ready or know where it is.

To add to that ... the lady who has to dig all through her purse to find the exact change.... ggrrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

And then there's the one's who feel it's a good time for a gossip session.... ggrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Brake Pad]

I only have one. Don't ever let me catch you park in a Handi-cap spot,. *without the proper Placard or plate, I will pay to have your car towed

Yep.

[kevin-vic-b.c.]

The term "pet peeve". WTH is a pet peeve? Way too mild of a term for what aggravates the crap out of me.

 

Frivolous lawsuits, people who scam SS disability, and those who use handicap spots because they're lazy.

 

There's too many handicap spots. Why does every Walmart need 18 handicap spots?

 

People who call soda, "pop". It's freakin soda people.

 

 

Seems that maybe Soda is a minority opinion...... in Canada I do believe the term Pop is more common but was not able to locate statistics on that.

I hate hearing a journalist say...... at 3AM this morning....... when would 3AM be this afternoon..... NEVER. It should be at 3 am today dang it.

[DragonRider]

My biggest pet peeve is people who drive on multi lane hwy, doing the limit or less in the left lane and refuse to move over for people traveling faster. Left lane is for passing, not for poking along.

[Venturous]

Mine is being in the left lane... travelling the same speed as the 30 cars ahead of me... and some special person feels they are more important than anyone else and tries to pass me on the right. Notice I said... tries. They never succeed.

 

And related.. another pet peeve is the person in front who caused that 30 car backup by not getting in the right lane when they should. My opinion is... if you are not in process of passing a car and there are no cars in left lane in front of you... move over!

[spear]

Left lane dicks! Nuf said

I'm hearing you, except down under they're right lane dicks.

HATE THEM!!!!!

[Ron2006]

Yeah, I am with Ventursome on the carts. I have a part time job at Lowes and people will leave carts right where they unloaded them even though they are 5 feet from a cart rack. Another is people (stepson) that have enough energy to pull out stuff from the frig to make a sandwich but lack the energy to put stuff back when they are done.

Struck a nerve Ron!! Not to pick on your stepson Ron in ANY WAY but, deep in my heart I have a gut feeling that what you just described is the beginning of the pathway along the road of where many of these pet peeves are found... Hope that made sense also hope I didnt offend you Ron

[Bubber]

People who call soda, "pop". It's freakin soda people.

 

That would be everyone in the midwest!!!!!!! LOL

Soda is an east coast term, we like our pop!

[Cottonpkr]

People that hold up traffic on the two lane and then when it turns to four lanes you cant catch them and pass before the highway turns to two lanes again. And of course they slow back down to ten under the limit! Grrrrrrrr!

[mabeline]

People who can't put tools back or things they've used ,where they got them from.

A five minute job takes an hour, 55 mins to find the tool and 5 mins to do the job!!!!

[bj66]

When someone is drinking a bottled water, and they just can't let the water flow out of the bottle. They have to "suck it out", trying to get it out faster. They end up collapsing the bottle while trying to drink it.

[Eck]

My pet peeve's:

Toilet paper must roll off the top....not the bottom.. I hate looking for the end of the roll when it is coming off the bottom. I will always change the roll to where it rolls off the top.

Neighbors who wont edge their side walks and drive ways as the rest of us do in an effort to make the area look better.

People who don't get out of their pajamas when leaving the house to go to the store or restaurant- this really sets a great example for their kids

People who pick their nose while at a red light.

Young kids who wont hold a door open for my wife as we walk up to the door. They just walk out and let it close with no respect for their elders at all.

Tail gaiters...I cant stand them..

Motel room coffee pots... You just can't pour a cup of coffee with out the coffee running all over the counter.

 

Edit- I just had to add this one: Dot placing those orange barrels for 10 miles down the interstate creating one lane and a traffic jam from "H", and yet they are only working on a 30 ft section of hwy....or they aren't even working that week due to weather..

There is another way to drink bottled water??

[ricksbike]

How about people that get on the freeway on the Acceleration ramp and go 40 mph until they get or try to get into the Freeway lane,nothing like being on a Motorcycle behind one of these Clowns.

[Sailor]

We probably only have this problem here but being an island people seem to think traffic laws don't apply.

People who wander out on the road without looking.

People who stop their car on the main road to wave people out from side roads and pedestrians across the road. They are creating a long line of annoyed people behind them.

[1rooster]

MOPEDS MOPEDS MOPEDS.

 

55 mph zone,double yellow lines for 9 miles and a moped running 20 mpr.pass them and there is always a cop there to ticket you.

[Wizard765]

I have most of the above but one that bothers me a lot is a local thing.. Here in Ontario they built a hwy using our tax dollars for the purpose of relieving some of the congestion getting around Toronto. This is called the 407 hwy and is a toll road. First thing they do is charge way too much to use it so it really does nothing for the congestion. But worst of all shortly after its up and running and WE all pay for it they sell it to some corporation in Brazil for next to nothing. The road is a video toll road so they are not even employing very many people. All they collect does not even stay in the country..

 

OK end of RANT

[bongobobny]

OK mine is stupid people doing stupid things!! That should cover it...
