I hate it when someone has used up the last of the ice and didn't make more.
Peeves me to no end that no matter how hard I try to keep the dining room table cleared off so we can eat there, it always fills up with stuff.
Peeves me that you cannot buy forks that are actually pointed anymore. The new ones all have flat tops.

Speaking of rims... People that put 20s on piece of sh!t cars! They have rims that are worth more than their actual car is worth. How stupid is that?! Save the money... buy a decent car with it - instead of 20in rims. Idiots...

Re: Re: Re: Post your Pet Peeves
I can agree with that. I've been on buses where a baby was crying/screaming his head off and when the bus operator asked the mother to quiet the baby down for the confort of the other riders, she tells the driver to nasty word-off.
Also most cRap music sounds like someone that ate a bad burrito.

When you buy something and it has a sticker on it that's almost impossible to get off completely and you end up scratching the product trying to get it off or leaving little sticky remenants behind.
Small ketchup packots from fast food places also make me very angry. You have to use 100 of those to get a decent amount and when you ask for extra extra ketchup they roll their eyes at you :)
But screaming kids definitely tops the list.

It seems the equivalent to what you're doing when you eat before brushing in the morning is: Take a glass of water and swish it around your mouth for a little bit, then spit it back into the glass. Then drink the entire glass. Doesn't sound too good right? That's what you're doing when you eat cereal with your bacteria-infested mouth. :-P

3. Fake 14" painted chrome spinners.
-I kid you not...i saw a 92 jeep Cherokee with 14" fake chrome spinners. I almost hurt my neck doing a double-take. I thought i saw P. Dittie rolling in his Escalade pimpin the dubs all chromed up! Or maybe it was a crappy 92 JEEP CHEROKE with $19 target rims!!! How can anyone have such bad taste that they think that would look good. Here is an idea, spend that $19 and get yourself a less crappy car!!
ditto on the kerry/edwards stickers... hey you lost! get over it! i just ordered my personalized plates that say BUSHWON... no, im not kidding..... gee, i hope those liberals dont beat up my car!!!
i have never heard of fake spinners... youve got to be kidding me!!!Last edited by Project X; 04-22-2005 at 03:31 PM.
if you haven't considered chapter 7 bankruptcy, maybe you should.
eliminate your debt, keep the property you want, most people qualify.
contrary to popular belief - no attorney is necessary!

I'll bite. Here are a few of mine, in absolutely no particular order:
1. Groups of people who walk side-by-side down a corridor, never thinking that people *behind them* may actually want to pass.
2. People who cannot take a grocery store cart either to a cart return or back to the store once they are finished unloading their groceries. I actually saw someone use a cart to take their groceries to their car when their car was THE FIRST PARKING SPACE IN THE LOT. Yes, the very closest space to the store. They still couldn't return the cart - instead of just walking it the 20-30 feet back to the store, they just aimed it in what seemed like a good direction and gave it a shove.
There's more, but I can't think of them at the moment.
(BTW: First post!)

Unfortunately, no... and they're so cheesy too.
Here's a link to some:
http://wheelskin.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?
And they've usually got them cheaper at WalMart or AutoZone. I just couldn't find a link off hand and didn't feel like digging for one.

I don't know why, but the sound of a drink being poured irritates me.

-People who assume that just because I'm "self-employed" means I'm unemployed.
so er, yeah, hypocrites are my main pet peeve. every last one of em.
and bad drivers. i hate it when people are in such a hurry to cut you off but then drive 10 miles under the speed limit. i hate it when people leave two car lengths between them and the car in front of them when stopped, especially in a city situation where the traffic lights are so close together, and especially when they creep forward a couple inches every few seconds. (makes stick-shift drivers soooo mad!) i hate it when two people drive slow right next to each other and won't let you pass, and they look at you like yr an *** for wanting to at least reach the speed limit.
i think the biggest "bad driver" one though....is people who think you've done something wrong and proceed to curse or flip the bird at you for no good reason. this one time, i got a green arrow to turn and i went, and this moron coming from the opposite direction tried to go straight when he still had a red light, and he slammed on his brakes and proceeded to scream at me lol another time...i was stopped at the end of a street that opened to a street lined with parked cars. i was stopped, and this lady came blazing down the street and slammed on her brakes when she saw me, even though i wasn't in her way and i was totally stopped. she blocked me in my street and was screaming at me with her windows down, so i flipped her the bird. she pulled up and i pulled out and went on my merry way and she proceeded to chase me and tried to run me off the road once. so stupid!

My list is endless but, on a day to day basis -
1. People who drop litter
2. People who treat their children badly (I see it on the street quite a bit in my city)
3. People who think porn = child porn (IMO they are completely unrelated)
4. Unreasonable people.

People driving slow in the left lane of a freeway while on the cell phone. You're almost better off in the right lanes these days as the left lane has been turned into the "cell phone only" lane.

It's illegal to use a mobile whilst driving here (unless it's in a handsfree kit - though if you have an accident then it can be said you were distracted by it and charged accordingly apparently).
However, most annoying when I see people still using their mobiles whilst driving. It's not necessary or if it is - get a hands free.

I have another one which I was just a victim of. When a person drives around and around trying to find the closest parking spot to the door.
It drives me insane to be in the car with someone like that. I just want to yell at them to just park the car already.••If one picture is worth a thousand words, what is the value of an entire movie?••
