My Pet Peeves, What drives you crazy?

[gwen]

neighbors that borrow stuff and don't bring it back, or bring it back broken!

my mother's habit of viewing the world just slightly skewed from reality. (and in a light that always makes her look saintly and my sweet husband look like Charles Manson.)

me monsters. (folks that can only talk about themselves, and can't stand for anyone else to talk about anything else, either.)

BUBBLE GUM CHEWING BIMBOS POPPING THEIR GUMS AND GIGGLING LOUDLY AT THE BUS WHILE EXPLAINING HOW GOOOOOOUUUUUURRRRRGEEEEEOOUUS THE NEW GUY IS.... (Or well to be honest, I cannae stand the sound of anyone girl, boy, young or old popping their bubblegums - I am serious, it really drives me bollocks...)

Secondly, as I am Swedish and we have just changed our government after this years election I have to air my honest disgust for the new politicians

To start with, in order to watch tv in Sweden you have to pay a licence (currently 200 € a year) and our new culture politician ( in charge of this fee, and other issues concerning culture) haven't payed this fee for 10 f***ing years. BUT ORDINARY peoples will have to pay and can get dragged to court by the government if we don't pay the license fee...

Secondly, the same politician is veeeeerrrrryyyy much against socalled "black workers" (has nothing to do with black people) has told (after it was revealed that she has used black workers) that it was okay, as she couldn't afford to get someone to clean at her house otherwise. FOR GOD'S SAKE, she earns millions of SEK every year - if she cannot afford it, how does she think the rest of the country's inhabitants will afford it...

This could either go here or in "You Know Your Getting Old When", oh well, here goes.

When you're snoring, your wife wakes you up to stop. When you're not snoring, your wife wakes you up to see if you're still alive.

Hah! Another reason to live as a single!
