Pet peeves. We all got them, some irritate me more than normal, but you'd be kidding yourself if you said you didn't have at least a couple of pet peeves. I could probably nit pick and list a ton of things that tick me off, but I'll spare you all the novel-like list.
...drivers who don't use a turn signal
...couples who sit on the same side of the table when there's nobody on the other side
...people who blame anyone but themselves for THEIR failure
...students who prolong class by asking dumb questions
...going through the drive thru then having to return when/if they mess up your order
...using speaker phone in public areas
...people who cannot function at stop signs
...not washing your hands after using the bathroom
...people who ride their bikes on the road when there is a clear sidewalk & they act like they're a car
...people who don't send Thank You cards
...people who don't cover their mouth while sneezing or coughing (hello, Ebola)
...jerks who take up 2 parking spots...in the winter...during peak holiday shopping times
...people who don't know the difference between its/it's, they're/their/there, and you're/your
...people who go the wrong way in a parking lot
...when someone with a full cart of groceries gets in the 10 items or less line
...ignorant people
..telemarketers that don't understand people don't want to talk to them
...people who walk slow in front of you then stop out of nowhere
whoops I guess I lied about the whole long list thing, once I got started I just couldn't stop. Hopefully no one's pet peeve is long lists. What are some things that irk you or rub you the wrong way? Link up with Taylor & Helene.
Umm yes to all of these! I don't know where to start but you covered them all ;-)
ReplyDeletePeople who walk slow in front of you and then stop - YES! I have developed sidewalk rage since moving to Chicago. :)
