~~ Pet Peeves ~~

What's everyone's pet peeves?

Mine are:

-Having my name spelled/said wrong.
-Anyone who impedes me in any way from getting to where I want to go.
-Long lines that could have easily been avoided by staffing appropriately.
-Construction
-People who don't search the forums for topics previously discussed....several times.
-People talking to me with morning breath.
-tailgating
-telemarketers
- inappropriate cell phone usage, i.e. in the store while shopping, driving in the car, at a restaurant, holding up lines to take calls, in the movie theater, etc.
-Talking loudly on said cell phone in public places. I really don't want to hear your conversation about what freaky position you and your s.o. tried last night or your life's dramas. If you can't be discreet ~ stay at HOME and talk on the phone there !
- "LANESQUATTERS !!" you know, the people who secure the fast lane on the freeway while driving 45-50 mph and REFUSE to yield to faster traffic. These LS'ers will stay in their lane like they own the damn thing.
- Ignorant/obnoxious/rude people.
- Most prices on goods ending in 99 cents !!! Round up to the dollar - I HATE extra pennies that I have to roll and take to the bank in a steel cart at the end of the year.
- Guys who wear their clothes 5 sizes too big and girls who wear them 5 sizes too small.
- people who don't respect "personal space" when talking to you. This is especially annoying when they have poop monster breath or spit like a sprinkler system.
- going to a restaurant and asking for a Pepsi, but they offer Coke like it's interchangeable. Pepsi people only like Pepsi, Coke people only like Coke. Offering me Coke like it's the same thing as Pepsi is just sacrilege !!!

(I'll add more later... )

The worst thing about being lied to is knowing you weren't worth the truth.There's a lot of lying and these are people who are incredibly flawed, and not in very sort of empathetic ways, either. Some of the things they do are pretty awful and some of the things they do to each other are pretty awful.-Will Arnett
