Pet Peeves

[BlackWolf65]

Okay... We all have them. Those little things that just drive us completely out of our minds. It can be something that people do, it can be some kind of a situation, whatever...

So, I'll start it off:

Internet shorthand. This drives me absolutely BUG-SHIT. You know what I mean: "How r u today?" "bff," all of those idiotic, grammatically INCORRECT little shorthand things that get used on the internet... For God's fuckin' sake, if you can't spell the word, you've got no business being at a keyboard in the first place!! And I'll be the first to admit that on occasion, I use it too...

Doesn't make it right!!

And "right" is exactly what it isn't...

Changing lanes without using a turn signal, absolutely drives me crazy!

Or the guy who makes a turn, and only turns on his direction light after he's started the turn...

i hate it when people get a pet and then bitch that they cant afford to take care of it, or they dont have the time. i see this in my job almost everyday and it makes me see red everytime.

try bein in an office (cube city to be specific) and there are 3 coworkers around you that are ALL on the same conference call and they are ALL using spkr phone - wanna talk about surround sound! LOL

First of all, this should be a sticky!

start of pet peeve ..

People who lack common sense, I mean really how fucking hard is it? If your brain is functioning in a normal manner, common sense is a fairly easy task to obtain. Isnt it?

Oh wait, I know ... I'm over thinking this arent I?

Oh, man... I'm an animal lover... I have five cats, all kept in very good health, thank you... Every one of them was a rescue, because some ass couldn't be bothered to keep their animal, or just decided they didn't like having a cat after all...

"Press one for English"

[MsBug]

When people flick their ciggy butts on the ground or out the car window...makes my hand itch to smack them. heh

 

[keiffers]

my biggest non-driving pet peeve is calling a company for help with an account and reaching 'Praviti' in Bangalore and spending 20 friggin minutes explaining why I am calling, something I would have taken less than 5 to explain to an American....sigh

what's worse is when "Pravati" tells you his name is Tom.

Another one of mine too Keiffers.

oh I deal with them internally at my job - it's hillarious when I see an email come from one of them and they have given themselves the name 'Rex' or 'Rod'

LOL

~ The Hubby's driving. He turns on his signal 3 seconds before he starts turning...and when I tell him he's gonna get rear ended one day he said it would just be the other person's fault. A lot of good that may do him with a broke neck....or worse!

~ People who buy/get a dog, only to put it outside in a 4 x 4 chained in space. What's the fuckin point?


I know I'll be back....there's plenty that peeves me off!

 

[keiffers]

That people move into an apartment, surrounded by other people, and have no friggin courtesy of the other people around them and boom their surround sound or high bass music, shakin your stuff off the walls..etc....
