Pet peeves...

[ThatGuy]

Sorry if this has been discussed before. I'll give it a shot.

Everybody has a few pet peeves. What are yours?

The first thing that comes to my mind - people who say, "I could care less," when they should really be saying, "I couldn't care less." It happens ALL the time.

I hate it when people drive the exact speed limit and won't let me get around them.

I hate when people get emotional when you say you don't understand their ideas.

I hate when people get emotional and react emotionally to things.

Ooooh too many to list.

But A#1 pet peeve is people with poor table manners. People that chew too loudly, with their mouth open, talk with their mouth full, etc.

Your Vulcan exposing itself.

I used to be in agreement with the first statement till I got a nice import sedan last year and now I'm one of the idiots driving too slow. You don't understand how much smoother the ride is until you drive 40-45 in one of these beauties without knowing how slowly your driving until you get honked at or driven around quickly. Of course I feel like an old geezer driving this thing, but I've always wanted one and they really are nice to drive. (I always let people in a hurry get around me because I was always that person too.)

Slow walkers.

I hate it when people tell me what to think, try to make my mind up for me, it makes me want to go the other direction.....example:


I told a friend that I wanted to leave LA, she was the first person I told that I wanted to leave, and the first thing she said is 'your not ready to leave' that really pissed me off.




another thing is slow driver in the fast lane and people who don't use turn signals

I'm down with that. I hate mis-quoted sayings.

I used to work with this chick that would always say, "one fell shwoop" instead of "swoop." It drove me NUTS. But she was hot, so I managed to get past it.

One of my peeves is... when people say ... I'm going to "try" to do better next time. Why TRY? Why not just do it?

Another is people with cellphones... especially while driving, they either drive too slow, don't use signals..etc. Now that I think of it...also, people in grocery stores, on their phones. How did people ever get their shopping done without them twenty or so years ago??? Just put the phone down and walk away....

Okay... one more... when people say that they are sorry. And they don't say what they are sorry for. Seems like a shallow response to me. I feel that sometimes people think if they say that they are sorry it is supposed to be able to erase what they just did/said.

When someone says "you pick" and then dismisses your choice.

When people say "This is my pet peeve" yet they do it themselves

and

People who are notourious (sp) for being late. Being late is one thing, but when it is your M.O. then it makes me mad
