What are your pet peeves?

Mine is when people say: "I could care less" or "irregardless"

"you know" or "you know what I'm sayin'"

"I mean, you know"

So... whenever someone answers a question starting with the word, "So.."

Oh forget pronouns... Americans have the worst problem with them -- in particular when a pronoun is used with proper nouns.

The NY/Philly problem is usually this:

"Me and him went to the store."

(He and I went to the store.)

Then there are people who think that when listing a singular pronoun with other people, you should always use the nominative. Like:

"My mother gave a present to John and I."

(My mother gave a present to John and me.)

The object of a preposition is always me, him, her, us. If you can't figure out how to do it, just remove the other people in the list. You will sound like a Jamaican if you say the previous sentences as the following:

"Me went to the store."

or

"My mother gave a present to I."

"It was I that shot the sheriff"

White girls in North Dakota flashing gang signs on Facebook.

People who eat with their mouths open. Fucking pisses me off.

I also hate when women refer to their husbands as "hubby." It's the same fucking number of syllables! You aren't shortening anything and it isn't cute nor endearing. It's fucking irritating.

I was walking down the stairs at the Metro the other day and there was a fairly attractive latina woman in front of me, nice legs and so forth. But when I got close enough to see detail there was a nice soft mane of hair down the middle of her back. I threw up in my mouth a little.

People who spell "lose" - "loose". Drives me crazy. It's not as if your spelling the word Photosynthesis or Paleontology. It's four fucking letters.

People you leave a voicemail with this: "Hey, it's ______, call me". While I don't need a complete dissertation on your subject, maybe give me a clue so I can decide where it falls on my priority list. My automatic default is - it's not important at all.

The worst are women of Persian and Arabic descent. They have a faint layer of hair that extends over their cheeks. I have had more than one esthetician tell me how these women have huge bushes between their legs.

Oblivious people who walk through the entrance of a store, restaurant, whatever and then STOP right in the middle of the damn doorway. I swear I'm gonna kidney punch the next fat old lady who does that shit to me.

And "unquote." It's "quote"... "END quote." As in "parens"... "end parens." Although it's so common that it's probably in the dictionary now as "unquote."

They do not do that at Home Depot or Lowe's.

So, no, those two stores are not faggy...... at least not for that reason.

Yes they do. Every time I go into home improvement stores there are employees constantly asking me if I need help with something.

Another pet peeve:

People who take a thread off on a meaningless tangent so the conversation becomes all about them.

One of my peeves, people registered less than a month that have an encyclopedic knowledge of the forum, especially the ones that post exclusively in the odd hours.

It's like they were run off under a former name, and then decided to re-invent themselves.....

I saw one yesterday evening that included a goldfish bowl.

The ones that get me the most are the ones that have dad holding golf clubs and mom holding shopping bags. If they wanna be so damn realistic, why dont they find a way to show mam banging her personal trainer while pops works himself to death... Now thats a scene I could buy for a buck.

Not at all. It's called a blowjob, not a half-assed handjob while licking the head.

When I open the door for someone and they don't say thank you. White people are famous for this....at least hear in Virginia. I've had to call em out a few times. Like "Hey, nice home training you have there..". They still just look at me clueless.


People that dig boogers than try to shake your hand....

Standing behind some fuck head at 7/11 who wants a bunch of lotery tickets and is carefully considering which numbers to play taking a shit load of time in doing so.

People in the grocery line who feel a need to use those little divider sticks.

I use them sometimes. But when I have all my groceries all clustered together and the line is not crowded it doesn't make sense.

It seems like a desperate "stand your ground" move of the kids who had there desert roughed off their lunch tray in grade school by bullies.


When it's pretty obvious that there is going to be at least a foot between my shrimp and Ny strips and your faggy cous cous and tofu- just step fucking back, we don't need borders, OK?

Make the cashier do her goddammed job.

If there is a foot+ between my stuff and yours, why do you need to mark your ground?

I think it sometimes looks like you are trying to "protect" what you have from me or that you are suggesting that the cashier cannot figure out who has what.

Not a big pisser, this is a "pet" peeve, and I laugh about it.

But try please to live life without the little "fence" between you and the stranger in line with you.

Like I say, it's not a major pisser and it's something I laugh about.

But it shows how people in this world seem frightened and insecure and like to feel their property is "protected" etc etc

I leave my car and front door unlocked all the time in my own neighborhood and my neighborhood ain't Oakton or Great Falls.

I'll use the divider in a line where the belt is crowded. When it's not, why bother to mark your turf like an animal?

I hear you. It just seems like a bit of an overreaction but i guess that's what makes it your pet peeve.

Most people probably dont start cursing to themselves just because the guy in front of them in line is spending a lot of time ordering lottery ticketes lile me.

You know that guy started 4 threads about me being Brian Haddock of Westminster MD(Cary pointed them out). He also follows me from thread to thread.

So Pat when is the Brian Haddock blog coming up? And I notice you've chilled out with calling Brian Haddock a child molester. What gives?

The cyclists that bother me are the ones that put those rear-view mirrors on their helmets, and they are also the ones that put flashing LEDs on their bicycles and helmets.


What also gets me are the cyclists that stop their Tour de Douche and go into a Starbucks drenched in sweat to order coffee. I saw this a lot at the Vienna Starbucks near the W & OD trail.

I would think that someone as a bicyclist would understand that you need to hydrate, not consume a diuretic during exercise.

Hahaha, exactly! They go into the Whole Foods there too. Which reminds me, I also hate people who just worked out: cycled, ran, gym, whatever, still in their workout clothes and go to the grocery store. It's not cool, it's gross.

That one bugs me too but I see that a lot more from those 'not from around here.' I don't know whether it's just that they don't get it or they're too busy continually talking into their cell phones to even notice. Asian girls are famous for that. One particular place where I have to go often there are a ton and out of probably hundreds of times, I have NEVER had single one say thanks or acknowledge it in any way.

How about the people that don't wave thanks when you let them into the road? I hate that.

I used to think like that, but on more than one occassion, the checkout person just started swiping my stuff or the person's behind me without paying attention. It's because the conveyer belt automatically pushes the product to the front. This happens most often when the checkout person is jabbering away to the customer. Now, I just use the divider.

That use to piss me off too. Now I’ve just learned not expect much from commuters around here. Think of it like this:

Low Expectations = Fewer Disappointments

How about that asshole that won’t let you switch into the right lane on Leesburg Pike so that you can turn into Tyson’s Corner when traffic is at a standstill. I’ll have my window down with my arm out signaling to the driver directly behind me to the right, asking him/her to let me in and they act like I’m some homeless guy asking them for money.

It would cost them what? 2 seconds…maybe, to let me in.

When people create fake LinkedIn, FB and OK Cupid profiles about me.

Asian folks period. I actually want to retrack. The white folks in NOVA generally are well mannered. Anywhere outside of NOVA, forget it. I've also noticed that UnFairfax County Cops are very rude when I open doors. I can't even say they don't like soul brothas. I graduated with one who is pretty cool. Office Keysor.

HAHA!! You got me. I have certainly HAVE been "that" guy on many occasions and I wouldn't blame somebody for not letting me in then.

Here, I'm talking about instances when all the lanes are equally and completely jammed up. Situations where its hard to switch lanes because everything is just so backed up that there’s no gap to even change(lanes) into and the person still won’t let me in.

Men with extremely hairy arms that wear tank tops.

I'll go out of my way to make it easy for people in if it's a case like that where we all have to get over or if I think they've made an honest mistake.

But if you have the same commute every day you'll pick up on the dumbshits who try that crap as their normal routine. NFW they're getting in. I had an old beater truck that I'd drive and I'd just keep coming when they'd try to nose in forcing them to bail. Then they're stuck because they've lost the flow of traffic and run out of room and have to sit there looking like chumps blocking the lane until somebody takes pity them. lol

People try to get away with too much crap like that. I have to go to the post office every night and there's this what looks to be a nice little old lady who comes in at the same time. Every night she tries the same BS. Walks up outside of the line pretending like she's confused and tries to cut in right at the front. lol Same act every damn night. I used to let her get away with it the first few times but then I figured out that she's actually a mean old bitch.

People who yell "FREEBIRD!"

It's even worse when they yell it and then look around like, "Huh?! Huh?!" to see if anyone is validating what a cut-up they are.

--------------------------------------------------------------
13 4826 0948 82695 25847. Yes.

People who stop to let bicyclists cross the road when the bicycle has a stop sign and the cars have the right of way. The idiot drivers think they're being "cool" by showing courtesy to the biker when they're actually fucking up traffic near the circle at Arlington Cemetery.

Same with the people who wait and wave you through when they have the right of way. Yeah, yeah, I know - You're being nice. Just makes it take longer. Just go dammit.

Funny 20 years ago and even then not that fucking much..

The same guys who do this will try to get laughs by yelling something stupid out in a crowd and then yelling out an equally loud "Sorry!" waiting for that second laugh.

Cut ups indeed...

The co-worker who comes over to inform you that they sent you an e-mail. What's the fucking point?

Good one!

How about waiting in line at Giant. Express line. Person in front only has an item or two; all is good. Until the person asks the cashier for "Winstons, non-filter, in a crush-proof pack" or some such nonsense. The cashier stops. Has to walk to another aisle somewhere. Unlocks the display. Spends minutes rooting through. Comes back with something. The wrong something. Maybe it's Winstons, non-filter, in a regular pack. No, no. Nicotine addict won't accept that. Cashier disappears again. And on and on.

Nearly as bad: In line at Subway. You're behind someone with a list, ordering for an entire office. "I'll have a 6" tuna on Italian herb and cheese. Pepper jack. Toasted. Ummm, with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, olives. Oregeno but no salt. Now, the next one . . . " And she's got 6 or 7 like that. Once in a while, she can't read the handwriting: "Is this banana peppers or red peppers? Gosh, I don't know. Let me call my office and find out." And then when it's time for her to order, she's all, "Oh, I don't know. Can't decide." Arrgghh!!

Yeah, you just named two really good ones.

How about the Sunday shopper at CVS who has half the coupon section from the Washington Post clipped out in front of them. Every time I go to CVS to pick up a bag of chips and a soda so I can watch the Redskins lose, this guy seems to be 1 spot ahead of me in line. And sure enough there is always a dispute about some shit (involving the coupons or whatever) and of course the manager has to get called up front to settle it.

One of these days I ‘m just gonna ask how much money is being disputed, open up my wallet and give the person said amount of money so I don’t have to listen to the idiotic argument. I’ve come close a few times.

hispanics who put VTEC stickers on their busted Corollas, or those plastic fake vents on the front fenders of their cars, flame stickers, and punch holes in their mufflers to sound fast

These two license plates always get me are among my pet peeves. Usually found on hybrids, Volvos, and Subarus along with a bike rack on the roof.

The fake bling that certain demographics put on their Impalas, Chargers and 300s. It includes the fake vents, along with chrome linings and wheels.

curb feelers, the sticker with the little kid wearing the flag of el salvador.

Yes, those! Also, the Combat Wounded or Purple Heart tags.

When standing in line for movie concessions or at a fast food joint, and the family of 25 kids in front of me gets to the counter after standing in the line for 15 minutes and has no idea what they want because the whole time they stood in line they were busy flapping their lips or texting or something.

Hard plastic packaging that seems to be used on any small electronic part or device. Its impossible to open without a knife or scissors and when you do cut it open, be careful of the sharp edges of the plastic or it will cut your fingers!

what a douche

My giant list of peeves..

- infrequent travelers at airports that slow everything down
- the price of most everything at stores ends with 9 (1.99, 2.39, 3.59, 22.89)
- drivers on smart phones
- lazy slobs that leave shopping carts in an empty space
- parents who let their kids play on riding movers at the home improvement store
- the crappy magazine loading tool the comes with a Glock
- the dichotomy posed by supposed patriotic, down to earth, right wingers who shop regulary at Walmart without conisdering that 85% of its products come from China
- the vacuous nature of television news
- the obvious front for generalized recreational use that is the medical marijuana industry
- Washington DC's lack of a good jazz radio station although it was the boyhood home of Duke Ellington
- you can't get foie gras in San Francisco anymore
- the erosion of proper grammar, spelling, and general syntax caused by texting, tweeting, facebook, and all that other crap
- ill-conceived fiscal policy that incentivises investment but not production
- kids with toys at restuarants (you're not at home, kid)
- people with a CCW permit who open cary to make a point
- anyone attending a political rally
- the lack of professional attire in the workplace
- the outrageous price of French Bordeaux and single malt scoth whisky
- little clip-on team flags on cars during football season (seriously, you spent money on that?)
- people who order steak well done
- special laws that permit the placement of poltical signs that litter the median starting in late summer
- former marines who want to make sure you know that they were in the corps via a flag in front of the house, a sticker on the car, etc. (Rather odd that you don't see as much from folks who were in Delta or SEALs)
- the odd affinity that Texans have for the state and everything from it
- both sides of the abortion debate
- HGTV...it's nothing but a giant ad for the home improvement industry
- a fatso drinking a diet soda
- people who have never ridden a Harley, but wear a HD logo shirt
- the sea of human misery that walks the boardwalk at Ocean city
- the increased acceptance of obesity
- cigarettes and the weak addicts that smoke them

golly, you'd probably hate spending a day with me bud.

 

Wow Bud. I have to agree with you on everything except the fois gras, since I've never tried it.

People that believe they are good drivers.........yet, aren't.

Including by not limited to:

Left turns from far right lane
Right turns from far left lane
Barely slowing to blow through a light making a right turn
Extreme slowing when approaching an intersection...that they intend on driving straight through
Not knowing (or caring) who has the right of way at a 4 way stop
Five miles an hour less than the posted speed limit in the left lane
Needle threaders approaching a traffic light only to change back to their original lane when the light turns green
Cell phone users
12 course meal eaters
Make up appliers
News paper readers
Swivel headed people who turn the wheel in the direction their head is facing


And most importantly, anyone that is in the wrong lane, turning the wrong way, driving too fast or too slow that expects everyone else on the highway to pay the price for their lack of planning/attention

Whatever happened to driving around the block if you miss your turn?
