Do you have a Pet Peeve ?

People that "work their arse off" weaving in and out of traffic only to be passed a couple miles down the road as they're exiting the interstate by the line of cars they just weaved in and out of :costumes: Yep they really made LOTS of progress.


People that do now know what the little lever is for in their car that turns the turn signals on and off.

People that follow me approaching a work zone where one lane of traffic is shut down and wait till the lane ends and then try to pass several cars, causing everyone to have to brake for their sorry arse to let them merge.

..Oh I could go on and on !

Well, cars and cell phones have been covered pretty thoroughly already, but I'm surprised no one else has mentioned telemarketers. :censored: It really ticks me off that "No, thank you" apparently isn't sufficient. I hate that politeness on the phone seems to be a lost art these days. And how would you like me to call you during your dinner time? Grrrr...
 
Boy, do I have a list of pet peeves for you guys!! Thanks Mike for starting this :d
  1. People constantly clicking the end of their pen.
  2. Grocery carts with one bad wheel that goes "koowee, koowee, kowee".
  3. Greasy salt & pepper shakers.
  4. Towels folded the wrong way.
  5. People racing you to the yield sign
  6. People who flaunt their wealth & status
  7. People who clean their ears & nails in public. Or better yet, the ones who rip their nails and leave the clippings on your floor.
  8. People who drink directly out of the container
  9. Noisy eaters
  10. Dirty keyboards
  11. People too lazy to lift their feet up while walking and all you hear is "shlunk, shlunk, shlunk."
  12. Plastic wrapping around DVD's, CD's, etc. Takes forever to take off. Timewasters!
  13. Bubble gum smackers!
  14. People who don't cover their mouths while yawning or coughing.
  15. People with their feet out of the car window.
Ok so ummmm, yeah...I'm done...I think... OH...one more!!!

16. Ice cream that taste like freezer burn.

OK, OK, done!!!!!

See what you started Mike....again! :173go1:

Political ads

....At this time of year,...without a doubt,....is the avalanche of obnoxious political ads one is bombarded with. On TV and on the air waves. They never seem to cease. So much mud slinging is done it makes me want to vote for the other candidate. Of course,....the other candidate is pitching the same amount of manure. Some how in their pin head minds they think if they can go negative on the opposition they'll win votes. Fat chance.
Nov.4th isn't come up fast enough for me.
 
A man who uses his wifes credit card-Hey_Moe

Talk about walk up ATM machines...I hate it when a tird goes to one, inserts there card, takes for ever to do what they are doing...what ever that is then ya find out all they wanted to do was see how much money they have left. Lida tells me that is about what 75% of the trasactions are at the ATM machine...lol. Ya ever been trying to pass someone in a 55 mph lane and they are doing about 40 mph and the car beside them is doing 40.2 mph and it goes on forever....this only happens when ya in a hurry....don't cha feel like passing them and slamming on your breaks and saying " GET DA F__K OVER" And my number one pet peeve... I call the customer up and let them know I should be there in 5 or 10 minutes and then I get to there house and ring the door bell,knock on the door,tap the window, ring the doorbell again...walk back to the truck...call them again and they say sorry...I forgot you were coming or I was on the phone....I stews then
 
What stews me is when a woman says dat...LMAO....Linda got it made and she knows it...ask Panther...he knows who foots da bill...baby cakes can quit work anytime she wants...I got plenty of food stamps to go around. BTW...Linda has never needed to work...I can't get her to retire...got any suggestions.

You know something I just thought about on the way home today?? I guess it shouldn't bother me, but it does... People that do not wear their seatbelts, OR people that simply refuse to put their little children safely in a carseat or simply buckled in.... Working in a drive thru for several years, you would not believe some of the things I had seen... Stoned parents, w/ their infants in the back... kids 2 and under climbing around in cars..... that bugs me... I guess that is their choice........ even if it is a stupid one...

I got one question for da group....does it bother any of you guys and girls when right at dinner time the phone rings and someone wanting money or someone wants to make ya money, selling windows,doors,grass care..ect...ect...cus it piss's da hell out of me....even on Sunday I gotta hide from the phone calls:banghead:
 
Telemarketers calling me anytime isn't a good thing.

I figured out how to shut the ones up offering loans, etc. Just tell 'em "I didn't know yall offered that service to folks in bankruptcy". They just hang right up.

thats what they make answering machines for ...

I don't answer my phones unless I know who it is. I figure if whoever is calling thinks its important enough, they'll either leave a measage and a number for me to return the call or they'll call again and hope I answer.

One of my peeves is all these new cars that come without ashtrays...or even lighter sockets. They've got 12V power points coming out the wazoo...but no good old fashioned crotch-burner lighter to scorch the upholstery! :isadizzy:

Next most annoying thing..."fart-cannon" mufflers on 4-cylinder import cars. sounds like the morning after a chili cookoff when college time comes around.
Cmon kids, that muffler is bigger around than one of the pistons for pete's sake! LMAO
(Ahh...I miss the days of good ole straight-pipes & glass-packs on a V8...)
