Pet Peeves

Post Reply New Topic

When someone phones me and I say I can't talk because I'm on my way out (or driving, etc)
They say OK but keep talking anyway.
Ad nauseam.
When I basically hang up on them, they act like I'm rude.

Those online shopping sites that don't clearly state what's in the box and/or provide information on some critical features. I bet they do it on purpose so that you'll end up spending more money.

When the wifi keeps cutting off or slowing down in your home.

When people spell the words wrong on YouTube song videos.

When they space / punctuate the phrases awkwardly.

When they write the words like "Oooooh ....."

People that correct or make fun of dialects.Especially the ones that move here.
I say bob wire, yes , I know it’s barbed wire.

to observe other motorists driving like they are the only ones on the road.

Examples, those who drive too slow, or those who drive too fast - occasionally to a point where other motorists are quickly forced off to the side of the road.

Naturally, law-abiding motorists are left asking, where is law-enforcement - to deal with, and best discourage oblivious/ aggressive driving behaviors?

When people just dislike you for no reason. At least have a reason. Like the woman at work who doesn't like me because they gave me a promotion and not her - that's at least a REASON and that reason doesn't make me feel hurt. Most people just dislike me because they grow bored of me being boring I suppose, which I don't count as a reason.

Being put on hold for a length of time that may make one impatient when one makes a call.

When people post multiple posts consecutively.

"Political junkies."

My pet peeves?

-Yappy dogs that bark all the time.
-Cats that wreck the furniture upholstery.
-My pet bear eating neighbours. Well, *some* neighbours.

People who talk a lot but contribute nothing to the conversation.

People who think they know it all.

Anybody remember "Mr. Know It All" from Rocky and Bullwinkle?

One of my pet peeves is when somebody knows I have to be somewhere on time----but makes me late anyway because this person couldn't do that something on their own.
