Biggest pet peeve of the day

2»

Re: Biggest pet peeve of the day

  • I have 2, and they both involve driving.

    1) When there is an intersection with multiple turn lanes, people need to complete their turn in the SAME LANE as the one they started their turn in!!!  There is an intersection that I go through every day, and every freaking day, some a-hole almost merges into my car, because they switch lanes halfway through the turn!!!

    2) When people stop at the bottom of an on-ramp.

    Both of these things make me absolutely crazy.

    Lots of love and continual explosions of babydust to my BG Besties! XOXOXOXO

    My pet peeve is that i get really pissed off everytime I go over to the bump parenting boards and have to hear some person crabbing about how they have to get rid of their pet because it isn't "good" around their kid...well train your F*ing dog, and kid so that you don't have to get rid of them.  When you got a dog you invested in their future, you agreed to raise them and care for them until they went over the rainbow bridge, you wouldn't get rid of your kid that way so why would you do that to your dogs.

     

    Don't even get me started on this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is tied for my biggest driving pet peeves.  When I see someone stopped at the bottom of an on ramp I lay on my horn until I'm right behind them.  And then lay on it for a few more seconds for good measure. 

    My other biggest driving pet peeve is people who pull out in front of you instead of waiting for you to pass and then driving slow.  OMG, I get right on their @ss and lay on my horn in the hopes that they speed up or realize they're a big freaking idiot.

    And it seems like these people are always in minivans.

    Maybe I have driving aggression issues.  Hm.

    I especially hate when someone turns right in front of you causing you to slow down and then when you look in your rearview mirror there is NO ONE behind you so they could have easily waited 5 seconds and turned right behind you!!

    I see a lot of minivans driving SUPER fast!!  Maybe there is a gang of Speedracer Mommies??  Stick out tongue

    Confession:  I love honking my horn if it is justified.  :-)
