Pet Peeves

First thing that came to mind:

People that chew with their mouths open

GROSS:

-cracking your gum
-chewing your gum like a cow
-playing with your gum with your dirty finger and shoving it back into your mouth

Forgot to add......male friends and acquaintances who after I told them I was getting married, all of a sudden would not leave me alone about if I was going to have a last fling!!!

I HATE THAT!!! FH proposed on vacation in California, the next day all of the old bf's came out of nowhere wondering if I was going to have one last fling before I say I do...grrr!

Subject: Cars & Driving

(1) people that don't know the size of their cars

(2) women in that drive these extremely large SUV's and can't drive or park them properly (meant for CT'ers especially)

(3) people who signal and DON'T turn their head before switching lanes - just b/c you signal doesn't mean it's clear!

(4) People who freak out if you tap their bumper while parking, meanwhile they're sitting in their car, and won't move their car back an inch more b/c they're already taking up two parking spots!!!! You see me struggling Jerk - move back an inch or shutup!

(5) NYC in general - what's the point of having parking spaces if you can't park them anywhere at anytime?

(6) NYC Parking Lots - I know you're driving my car around town, smoking weed in my car, and doing figure eight's - don't give me a dirty look if I ONLY give you $2 as a tip!

People who hit your car when they open their door leaving a dent and just keep walking!

(I had this happen once while I was IN the car - my car was a piece of Crappola but that is besides the point!)

Or talk with their mouths full of food. This makes me nauseus - so gross!

I am also finnicky about table manners. I hate when people reach across the table for something - or don't put their napkin on their lap (when out to eat).

I hate when I go out to eat and the waiter/waitress never comes to check on us (meanwhile I have no drink left), or when they check on you when you just took a big bite (I think it is intentional!)

bumping b/c y'all got lots on your minds today

People who chew loudly!!! It drives me INSANE!!!

OK!!!! I AM GUILTY!!! I SAY AXED... EXSCAPED... AND MY PARENTS BOUGHT ME HOOKED ON PHONICS... I GUESS IT DIDN'T WORK FOR ME!!!!



BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT..... My worst pet peeve... is when people call you... they WAIT until the entire voice mail is over for them to breathe into the phone and hang up and not leave a message... I HATE THAT... Why do I need to waste my minutes to check pointless messages that don't even exist!!! I HATE THAT....

Ok... Come back to a better place... Breath...

When you're off 1 day from work (a normally scheduled day off) and your job calls you 12 times, leaving 7 messages! (Yes, I saw it all on the caller ID when I got home)

This happened yesterday while I was out of town. Someone called in sick and they wanted me to come in. Somehow they must've figured the first 6 messages didn't go through. Thanks for taking up my answering machine tape.

If I'm that important, give me more $$$$$$!!

Just thought of another good one, don't know if someone already said this:

I HATE WHEN YOU HOLD A DOOR OPEN FOR SOMEONE, AND THEY DON'T SAY THANK YOU.

I hate when someone persists to pronounce someone else's name wrong, even after hearing everyone else pronounce it correctly.

Hate when a neighbor in my building gets someone else's mail from the house next door and just throws it on the floor. It's the house next door, walk the 20 steps to bring it over.

Telemarketing.

People who take up multiple seats in the subway when they don't need to.

Salespeople who ignore you when you want to be helped and harass you when you are just looking.

Hmmmmm..I've developed my own list since I had an apartment in college and then moved back home with mom and dad:

here I go:

1- when people don't pull the shower curtain/shower door closed after the shower

2- when people dont dry themselves off after the shower and then they leave a puddle of water on the floor

3- when people dont change the toilet paper after the roll is used up

4- when people insist on pilling garbage on top of garbage instead of changing the bad

5- when people take their socks off and leave them on the floor next to the couch

6- when people dont properly wrap food when it has to go back into the fridge

7- people who dont use turn signals

8- when people talk to me when I am on the phone

9- when people look over my shoulder when I am on the computer

10- when people dont clean up the toothpaste they spit into the sink when brushing their teeht

11- when people leave lights on un-nessarily throughout the house

12- when people (my dad) dosent clean up the droplet of coffee that was left on the counter from his morning coffee


and the list goes on and on and on...I could be here all night...

when people don't put things back where they found them.

people who jump in for a drink when someone else is buying a round and then disappear when it's their turn to buy.

people who ask how your weekend was and 2 seconds into your answer they take over and tell a ten minute story about theirs!

Oh I forgot.

people who BLAST the television for NO reason what so ever

people who are slow at the chekcout counter of a supermarket or store...that includes employess and customers...SPEED IT UP PEOPLE!!!

People who dont watch where they are going in the mall...like when they walk in the wrong direction or they walk TOO SLOW and dont care if people are behind them and then they stop to look at something in the window and you bump into them without notice.

People who bi*ch about their jobs on a regular basis..I know that work is not fun everyday, but if you hate it that much then work on getting another one....

People that ignore their children when they are screaming/misbehaving/destroying things in public places!

DISCIPLINE your children or get RIDILIN!
