Pet Peeves

Original post by MeNBobs

What are some of your pet peeves. What really drives you crazy!!!!

1. People that speak in baby voices. A girl I know does not eat lunch she eats 'wunch'.

2. Using foreign terms and pretending it is normal. A girl I worked with did a semester in England. She was away for 2 months and lived with all Americans. When she came back she referred to her house as her flat and the bathroom as the loo. Add on the fake accent I thought I was working with Madonna.

3. Cars with 1 license plate. I don't know why but it annoys me.

4. The denim suit. A denim jacket worn with jeans. It looks like a poor man going on a job interview.

Shout shout let it all out!!!!!!!!!

LOL Peggie. Yep. I wear my makeup everyday and proud of it. SIL tried to make me feel weird for wearing it, complainign about women who wear it when 'hanging out with friends' at liek movies, resturants etc. And Im like uh huh...and you're in public right? if I wear my makeup daily WHY would I change routine just cause Im with people who love me? LOL why should I make you see me unkept?



Im the opposite... I NEVER wear makeup unless I go OUT out... to a club or nice dinner. my husband always complains when I do too. its funny...

I don't even bother putting makeup on for work. I work alone though... if i have a meeting, I'll throw on some mascara or something

I hate speed police people...you know the 3 people in the 3 lanes all doing 50......um and we wonder why accidents are caused, if Im doing 80 MOOOOOOOOVE! There is a reason the LEFT lane is the fast (passing ) lane



LMAO Oh my peggie..you're one of THOSE! If the speed limit is 65, HELLO 80 is um a bit high!!! NJ is famous for the people who ride your bumper going 55 in a 30 residential area.

I'm going to get you some soft cotton swabbers for your feet to soften that lead foot of yours



I am Sad to say it, it just gets away from me sometimes. BUT in my slight defense I dont tail gate......i do break check however

Which is fine too. All about what people are comfy with. I myself love my makeup but dont like dressing like 5 pounds of sausage in 2 pound package. That is a peeve of mine. be beautiful and sexy sure but be a lady about it.

The ubiquitous doorway monopolizer...

You know the 'tard who ALWAYS meets me as I'm leaving a shop, acts like they're going to hold the door as you exit, but then deftly moves RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU so you can't leave and he can't get in???

***, what am I, INVISIBLE???? You dont SEE ME LEAVING??? HEY KNUCKLEHEAD, if you let me OUT there's more room for YOU in here....

mine are purely grammar...

Your vs You're

people that spell ridiculous 'rediculous'

im sooo guilty with the Your vs you're





my mother is an english professor so I think I have some deep rooted bad memories of bad grammar floating around in my head.

Your: possessive adjective
You're: Contraction for 'you are'
ur: You are eight years old, get off the internet

Re: Pet Peeves

These are so funny. I have a ton of pet peeves.

-Tailgaters. People who drive so close that you can't see their headlights in your rearview, especially when you're in a ton of traffic. It's not going to get you get you there any faster, so back off!

-Blatantly incorrect grammar. I have a co-worker with awful grammar and it makes me crazy. I cringe every time I hear phrases like 'the most bestest', 'I stood at the hotel last night', 'I brought this at the store', and 'does anyone has the paper for this client'.

-People who are glued to their cell phones. When you're out to dinner with friends, checking out at the store, taking a yoga class, don't answer the phone. And don't text people while I'm talking to you. That gets me livid.

Visible muffin tops

Re: Pet Peeves

I have so many it is ridiculous, but a few of my top ones:

1. People who chew with their mouth open or loudly-- it is so gross (also people who talk while eating!)

2. The sound of fake nails on a keyboard

3. Scooping out bagels- I realize a lot of people do this, but it just annoys me SO much! Either eat a bagel or don't...

4. People who hug the subway pole, seriously, just use your hand, other people might want to hold on also

5. Mini Skirts and UGGs - if you are not kate hudson, let it go, it is either too cold for the skirt or too hot for the UGGs

You just made me remember, I hate when I am talking to someone-especially DH-and he walks into a different room, if I am talking to you I need to see you, otherwise I KNOW you arent listening

This may be about makeup but another thing that does my head in is people that pull Chris Farleys FAT GIRL IN A WAY TO SMALL SHIRT, JEANS AND COAT. Leave some of your anatomy to the imagination your camel toe has a camel toe.

Got ya beat here...the same friens that I mentioned about the eggs...well we went out for my birthday one night. First time he met my DH and all and while we're in the middle of chowing down our sushi boat, he whips out his laptop and puts it on the table.

Now before you think he's like some CEO or something, he's in the music indutry; writes jingles for TV commercials...important stuff sure but It cant wait AN HOUR!!!!

If you're soooo busy that you ignore us and stay glued to your screen all night WHY did you even come!

Re: Pet Peeves

When you let a driver pull in front of you and they don't wave 'thank you'

Double Negatives, drives me nuts!

Chewing with your mouth open, that smack smack drives me up a wall!!!!!

All I can think of right now, feeling drowsy from lunch!
