What's your pet peeve?

We haven't done this in awhile...

What is your current pet peeve?

Re: What's your pet peeve?

  • My current pet peeve is people who do not secure their trash when they  put it out on the curb for trash day.  We live on a hill, so it's windy all the time.  When people put out their trash haphazardly, it blows everywhere, into everyone else's yard.  I don't want to pick up someone else's trash!

    We currently have a Miller Light box in our backyard.  I haven't had the chance to go back there and get it.  I'll have to have DH get it in time for trash day tomorrow.

  • All of my pet peeves come down to one thing...I can't stand it when people just have a lack of respect for the people around them.

  • My pet peeve right now is people that cannot pick a side in a grocery store isle.  I prefer they pick the right side, I'm okay with the left side (do you think we are in England), but stay the heck out of the middle, do you really need to park your cart in the middle of the isle or walk up the middle and then glare at people when they are in your way!

     Vent done!

  • My pet peeve right now is people who are overly negative.  I realize that sometimes you just need to vent (hey, I'm doing it right now!) but I lose my patience when all a person does is complain and find the down side of things.  One of my new co-workers is like that and he's driving me nuts!

    This is my pet peeve as well! All of mine boil down into this.

    Me too, this is the same regardless of whether it's work, or driving, or out in public.

  • I have to only name one???

    My current one from earlier today...people who don't clean up after their dog at the dog park.  I guess they don't think about the fact that others will be walking in the area and might not see the pile of shiiit their dog left and they failed to pick up!  Now I have to clean dog poop off my shoes...thanks jack-a$$!

  • I can't handle food left in the sink!! ?My DH will rinse off plates, put them in the dishwasher, but, forgets about the left over food! ?Drives me nuts!

    Also, I can't handle when people have garages bigger than their houses. ?You know, the?detached?ones? ?Can't stand it!

  • Ditto Susanne...I don't know if I can only name one!!

    I can't stand when people don't take responsibility for their actions...you screwed up admit it and stop acting like you don't know why X happened nor knew nothing about it.

    My other pet peeve is people who incessantly have to tap their foot, swing or drag their feet on the carpet, click their pens, snap their gum, over and over again particuarly during meetings (like mine this afternoon).  It's distracting and really irritating.  I realize most times people are being absent minded but hello...I can hear you and while you might not be paying attention to the meeting...I'm trying too!!

  • My current pet peeve is sick people who do not cover their mouth when coughing and just cough loudly into the air just spewing their infected germs everywhere.  I can't take any kind of cold meds right now so it really pisses me off that they don't have any consideration (or manners!) for others.
  • People who hum or whistle in public.  I know it may sound silly, but it's annoys the hell out of me.

     

  • There are so many little things that will drive me nuts. I hate it though when someone will be checking out in a store while chating on their cell phone. I've been on both sides of this having worked in retail--its hard to ring someone up when they are paying no attention to you--and waiting in line behind people. What is so important that it can't wait 5 minutes, a lot of the conversation I overhear aren't.

     I live in a college town and students drive me crazy too. One of the biggests is they never look before they cross the street (without a walk signal/cross walk), than give you dirty looks for being in the road

     

  • People that sit there and wait for your parking space when there are so many others around...stop being so damn lazy and WALK a little.  It's even worse when I'm walking in the parking lot and they are following me in their car and then ask if I am leaving. 
  • My current pet peeve is people who call off work when they arent really sick and leave the rest of us to pick up the slack!  Angry  Maybe I feel a cold coming on....cough cough
