I have a few pet peeves and I was just curious really yanks your chain.

I hate rude drivers. Especially tail-gating. AAAARRRRGGGHHH! My rule is that you should treat ppl on the road the same way you would treat them on the side walk.

Another peeve of mine is these idiots in their SUVs that speed on snowy roads. Sure they get traction to go, but 4 wheel drive doesn't help you stop. BTW: We own an SUV (Ford Explorer) and neither my wife nor I drive like that.

A big one for me is ppl who chew with their mouths open. I really hate when I'm at a restaurant and someone sitting across from you is doing that.

So, what bothers you? I promise I won't use it for ammunition. Really! hypocrite.gif

*frowning VERY sceptically*
Ah... You won't???...Even if it's me...no revenge for former cheeking?...for sure...? unsure.gif

I'm shocked! To think that... that... that I would use something that you shared with us in good faith against you. cry.gif Gabs, you should know better! wink.gif

Seriously, though, I think that knowing what irritates ppl is a good way to get to know them better. So spill!

Okay then...There are two things I remember immediately..

One thing we have in common. I HATE people chewing with open mouth, too - or - even worse - speaking with full mouth or eating noisly...URRRGH! sad.gif

Another thing that makes me feel VERY uncomfortable is when people I do not know at all, do not know well or do not like stand too close to me, so close that I can feel the heat of their body...brrrr....I think it is a question of courtesy to keep a small step distance, isn't it? I'm not shy at all and I love to communicate but that bothers me.
I once had a collegue at work who ALWAYS came sooooo close to me when he asked something or when we had to discuss a problem...it gave me the creeps...*shiver*...and trying to tell him not to do so diplomatically was simply in vain. So I asked him one day with my very sweetest smile if he wouldn't like to sit down on my lap just as well. He got the message...for a while at least! wink.gif

My biggest pet peeve is when people go into a convenience store and leave their car running (and, more often than not, with their kids in there too) ! They might just as well put a huge sign up that says:

STEAL THIS CAR!

After the people who cut you off on the road, which is a given, my pet peeve is the people who drive 10 miles down the road with the turn signal on! You never know when they are really going to turn! Or maybe it's the ones who turn and never put on a signal at all! wink.gif
At home it's the people who fix themselves something to eat and don't clean up. I have been known to get people out of bed to clean up messes.....Usually once is enough.....for at least a week. wink.gif

During the summer, I have been known to leave the car (and AC) running while in the store. Of course the 100 # Chessie in the car would be happy to eat any would-be car thief. biggrin.gif

One thing of my many that irks me is people who change their Avatar's and I get use to seeing one and identifying them by that then they go and change to something else and I realize who it is....I wonder if they are just playing with my mind or if they are ADD and can't remember where they parked their last Avatar at? Maybe they have short term memory? Maybe their sneaky little devils? Who could this be, Hummm?

I know I'm boring hua?

So the moral of the story is If I go to the store and leave the car running I should put Maisky in the front and a sign on the side that says:

Steal Maisky!

Do you really think someone would take him away?

Most things I try to take with a grain of salt..
People just lack manners today !

BUT when I am in a restraunt..
And someone blows their nose, and then takes care of all the bussiness that goes along with it ...
I get dizzy....
Go to the rest room for that ! ugh ! nasty !

You may not but I sure do. I can tell if a car is coming up from behind me if it is a Man or a Woman driving from a mile away and be right 90% of the time. No joking either.

One habit I have found with Women driving is when your on a secondary highway and I comes upon you really fast:

A Man would not slow down and continue on around you 90% of the time.

A Woman would come right on up behind you and sit there until either you turn or she turns even if there is no oncoming traffic where she could pass. And again this is about 90% of the time.

I think the reason for this is that the woman is selfconscience when it comes to speeding and does realize it while she is doing it. It is then, when she comes up on another vehicle, when she reallizes that she had been driving faster than the speed limit and then slows down and out of guilt or something will not pass.

I have another peeve, and this one's a doozy. I hate it, really hate it when people sue others, especially businesses, for something that's their own fault. For example, there's that old lady who spilled coffee on her own lap, then sued McDonald's because the coffee was too hot. And won! There have been others who tried to sue Nabisco because there was too much fat in the cream filling in Oreos. They lost, thankfully. And then there was a family who sued McDonald's because they said their food made them fat. They ate there 3 times a day. Their contention was that McDonald's didn't tell them there was a lot of fat in their foods. HELLO!

Take responsibility for your own actions, idiots! bangin.gif bash.gif

Hi all! I've finally wrestled this computer away from the rest of my clan. They've had it all tied up for three days!! (*gasp, gasp* no Celticradio for far too long!!) That's got to be right up there on my Pet Peeve list: 'Putner Hogging! tongue.gif

I think most of the other things that really bother me fall into the bad driving category, too. Mostly- people who don't stop at Stop signs, don't even bother slowing down or looking at other drivers while they cruise right on through that intersection and expect you to vear out of the way in time! That happens a lot up here, and is about the only time I use my horn. Not that it helps. Whatever happened to taking your turn?!?

Does anyone else get unwanted political or religious email from well-meaning friends and/or relatives? I Hate That!! How do you get them to stop sending these things without starting a feud? Especially bad are the ones that ask you to send the email on to ten of your friends, as well as back to the sender so they can tell you've received it and read it. Not nice.

I agree with the post about folks who don't clean up their own mess. I want everyone to help themselves to whatever they want to eat, or to feel free to bring games or projects downstairs, etc.etc. but it really bothers me when I find debris left laying around and they've gone on to the next enjoyable thing. I'd like to sit down and relax, too!

I think those are the major ones. rolleyes.gif

Stopping Mails

I've managed to stop the mails rather easilly. Occasionally I'll get one. I just told the people who sent them that I didn't want to recieve any of "those E-mails that just tend to float around" I mean occasionally you'll get a nice one, and occasionally I still get one sent to me, But I'd just as soon not be getting them all the time. Now if I could only stop the 150 pieces of spam per day as easy. As for anything that says "pass this on to xxx people..." Sorry, tough luck, this is the end of the line. You're going to have a hard time convincing me that anyone is going to get an extra $5.00 because I forwarded an E-mail written by someone I don't know from God/Goddess only knows where.

Not Passing

RB: I don't pass on a 2 lane road, almost to a fault. I just followed someone all the way around town at 25-30 mph in 45-55 zones yesterday. I don't like the chance of someone showing up in the other lane while I'm trying toget around the person in front of me. I've already bashed up 2 cars, and was fortunate enough not to be injured. I'd rather not bash up a third in a head-on collision.

Same Avatar

Been using the same Avatar since September, and no compelling reason to change. I know mine is safe from duplication because I pulled it from the cover of my book, which is entirely original work, and uploaded it myself. Not only is it not in the CRN library, but I own the copyrights to it, and of course, the original. Not that there is anything otherwise special about said original. It's just a section of a digital photo, that's a layer in a 2.3 MB GIMP image file. (.xcf)

As for my pet peeve... How about corporate BS.

it's a good thing I went into IT because I like computers, and not for the money. All through school it was cramed down my throat until I was sick that places were hurting, to the point of death for IT people. Then, I get out with an Associate degree in programming, and MCSE cert thinking I'll get started and then go back to school. I then spend over a year (03/01 - 12/02) unemployed and looking for work. What's worse, I get ignored 99.98% of the time. during that time, I had maybe 5 potential jobs, and only came close to getting a spot once.

And then, nothing done by a corporation is done to any level of quality anymore. Crap breaks quickly, and costs more to get fixed than buying a new one. Software is released broken beyond belief (Think Microsoft), and any way a corporation can cut while still jacking up prices, they will. Their people don't matter, their product doesn't matter, and who cares if the customer is happy with the product, just get them so used to it breaking, and get them so dependant on our crappy product that they will have to come back and pay 3x as much to get more 2x more often that they really should have to.

In order to get something done right, you have to:

A) do it your self, by hand
(how I got my console mp3 player I use as well as the system it's running on)
cool.gif find an individual who cares about what they are doing and hire them to do it, by hand
(how I got my cloak)
C) shop for a few weeks until you find the one company who is an exception to the rule and actually cares about their product and customers enough to make something worth buying
(how I got my stereo, the components for my computers, and anything else that actually matters to me)

Posted by: 3Ravens 25-Feb-2004, 08:07 PM
Ya know, Aaediwen, that's one that has become so endemic that I didn't even think of it. I just do the things you said without even thinking of them.
I had my comp built by a non-chain local outfit that garantees their work.(And really does fix things when they break, cause I've had it happen.) My car mechanic doesn't charge me for stuff that doesn't need done. I make a lot of my own clothes, or buy from the thrift store. I cook most foods fron scratch and don't buy premade mixes.
I have learned not to throw away the papers when I get a new appliance. The warrenty usually isn't worth much, but a 1-800 number or a web address is almost always included in there somewhere. Then you can order parts and fix it yourself. You are right, sometimes the cost of a new part is more than a whole new item. (A new battery for a $4 watch costs $5, for example)
Buying older is sometimes buying better (houses are an example)
So many people now have a throwaway mentality. I have gotten stuff from the trash that worked fine. (Yes I do go trashpicking at times!)
OK, time to get off the soapbox...... wink.gif

Being "frugal" is an art form. Some of my favorite stuff I found sitting on the curb or picked up for a song at a yard sale. We dressed our kids in yard sale clothes until they left home. thumbs_up.gif

Posted by: Richard Bercot 25-Feb-2004, 08:22 PM
Nothing wrong with being "Frugal". I have picked up some very old things that are in better shape today then anything you can buy new. Example; I bought a hand drill that requires no electricity, no cranking of any kind. It is a Craftsman that looks like a screwdriver. You insert any small drill, place the drill point where you want the hole to be and then just push on the handle. Very simple to use and easy to work and it only cost me $2. I have already got my money's worth from it. wink.gif

This thread is a good one for me cause I think I am getting grumpy in my ole age! rolleyes.gif

1) Patronizing, condescending people and/or people who tell me things they think I want to hear!

2) Dogs in the back of pickup trucks -- do people not know how dangerous that is for their pups or do they not care? Grrrrrrrrr

3) Being out shopping and women are standing in the aisles chatting on the cellphone. My goodness..........get a life! I don't want to hear all their issues and gossip!

4) Email chain letters. I usually delete them, but still annoying.

I am sure I can find more. I am that grumpy. laugh.gif

Posted by: gaberlunzie 26-Feb-2004, 02:28 AM
I think patronizing people are poor people, I've learnt to smile about them and can't take them really serious...
I mean someone who is convinced of himself and knows about his abilities etc. doesn't NEED to SHOW what he is!
Most of that arrogant, patronizing folk just is very insecure inside, incontent...poor folk!
But if you don't have your best day yourself; yes, then they can be annoying; then you're right, my grumpy friend wink.gif !

LOL! Gabby! You are too funny! I just love you! I have experienced a couple of patronizing, condescending people on other sites that I belonged to and have since left. Thankfully I have never experienced it here! Everyone is so very nice here and that I am thankful for! hug.gif

laugh.gif Love you, too, "Grumpy"!
I also made the same experiences you made on other sites and the more I do appreciate those wonderful people here!

I once had a boss who was AWFULLY patronizing; hard for everyone to get along with him; nearly everybody felt hurt by him once a day at least...
So I had to find a way to "survive" and I did!! I always imagined him how he would look with his pants down around the ankles of his feet...woohooo...I'm still grinning!!! tongue.gif

Pet peeves.

Arrogant, loud, bossy people

Loud talking

People trying to make a point, repeating themselves ad-nauseum

Loud eating, sucking teeth etc.

People so convinced of their own superiority they try and force their ideas on everyone else.

Oh, yeah! I agree 100% with all that. My 12 yo son still sucks drinks out of cups, so sometimes he generates that sucking sound when his lips separate from the rim. Drives me nuts! Problem is, he knows it. So, being the little brat he is, he does it just to irritate me. (He really is a great kid. He just likes to push everyone's buttons.)

Oh yeah, Denial is the key word for these type situations.

Deny everything, after all, she may be sure, but she can't be that sure. After beating on you for awhile she will eventually calm down and start to feel sorry for you. After all, you are nothing but a sleazy, low-life male scum bag who can't help himself. (She thinks you probably taught the dog to do that one thing he does when company comes over too. Well, on the other hand, maybe you did. tongue.gif )

Anyway, the point is deny everything, always, and don't back down.

You know if they all used their energy to do something good for everyone not special groups of anything we'd all do better.
I wish we had a flat tax rate. Everybody paid say, 10% of whatever they earned straight across the board into the government. Rich folks would pay more of their treasures and compensate for those who don't have. The middle class folks would actually no longer support this country and they'd save money and it would be like a raise to them.

Since we went my son's last high school hockey game of the season last night, another pet peeve surfaced.

Parents swearing at the refs. I hate that. What is that supposed to teach the kids? Plus, there are famlies in the stands who don't want to listen to that. Not cool at all. disgust.gif

I really get annoyed when people are in the fast lane ang going below the speed limit.. Then they get pissed off at you if you honk at them to get over.. Then after you do honk they go even slower... OFF RUDE! I had a guy follow me home because I honked at him for going 45 in a 65 in the fast lane.

Posted by: Armo 28-Feb-2004, 03:26 PM
In fact.. My pet peeve is with rude and inconsiderate people in general.. For example like the person who looks right at you and then cuts in front of you in line. Or the person that will not simple let you get into a lane while driving.

One time in bumper to bumper traffic, I really needed to merge into a lane to get to an offramp.. I had my blinker on and stopped... This business man in a car next to me looked me right in the eye and fliped me off for no reason at all and he would not let me over. So I missed the exit

My number 1, top dog, enormous, huge, etc., peeve is being treated like I'm stupid. I expect it from my soon-to-be 17 yo (don't like it, but it's part of the age), but I can't stand it from other adults. I can handle all sorts of bad treatment, but don't insult my intelligence. GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! I had a boss that used to delight in doing it to everyone. It takes a lot for me to genuinely dislike a person, but I really did not like that guy.

I actually know a guy who did exactly what I was saying. He has a very attractive daughter. A boy came to pick her up for a date, and Wayne was sitting at the kitchen table, polishing his shotgun. He never threatened the kid and was very cordial, but sent a <u>very</u> clear message.

Posted by: shamalama 03-Mar-2004, 08:47 AM
My soon-to-be wife and I were already "an item", but I wanted to do the right thing and ask her father's permission to marry. They already "knew" we were going to marry, but the official "tell the parents" day came and she and I were sitting on their sofa, and I asked them for permission to marry their daughter.

He then decided to "show me" the shotgun he always kept in the closet. I admired the fine craftmanship of the weapon. I was later told that my face was so pale you could barely see the drops of sweat dripping from my brow.

I later found out that all this had been planned beforehand just to see my expression. It took me a month to "unpucker".

There's a special relationship between fathers and daughters. Where my little girl is concerned, I can't be too careful or too protective. I can teach my boys to be careful and, if they make a mistake, do the right thing. I can try to teach my daughter that, but when her boyfriends are concerned, I can only hope his parents did the same. If she gets in trouble it affects her for the rest of her life, especially if her boyfriend bails.

And your assessment about us not drawing together about our daughters is not quite correct. I have to believe that any father who really loves his daughter understands and supports other fathers who feel the same.

ok.. another thing that annoys me..... (Besides telemarketers and spam mail)

When I am short on time and people try to sell me things as I am walking into a grocery store... What annoys me even more is the same people try to sell me things as I am walking OUT of the store... After I told them I was not interested 10 minutes before. The second time I dont even look at them, I just point at my watch hoping they get the hint.

Its like... I used to get people calling me on the phone trying to sell me things during dinner time.. I get people sending me 100 pieces of Spam mail when I am just trying to check my email. I get 10 pieces or regular junk mail when I am just trying to check to see if I have any bills. I really get annoyed and don?t need more people trying push more things on me when I am just trying to complete daily tasks like shopping for food.

My biggest peeve are those folks who park in Handicap spots in the parking lot who aren't disabled. My daughter has cerebral palsy and she has always refused the suggestion of getting a permit for using handicap spots. Her thought is, as long as she is able to walk she wouldn't take any special treatment. Then I see so many people who's thoughts are that they'll only be a minute so who's it hurt.

My brother is also wheelchair bound and many times we have had to park way out because all the designated spots are full. Only to see someone run out of the store and hop into one of these cars and speed off.

This happened to me once. A girl I took to a dance once was a classmate of mine in grade school. Her father wanted to talk to me while he was cleaning his guns. It didn't help that he was one of former Cook County Sheriff Jim O'Grady's top deputies either.

Getting Away, Boy your daughter should be commended for her attitude. What a wonderful person she must be.

Armo, stop and look at those cute little faces and buy a box it won't kill you. One day hopefully you'll have a cute little girl yourself who will want to sell her share of cookies to support her troope so do your part and buy a box and stuff them in your mouth and enjoy! You know you'll like em! And that little girl will look up at you with adoring eyes and think what a wonderful person you are to help her.
I agree with you on the tele-marketers thou.

I had one guy call today to get me to listen to a sells speach. After 4 minutes of rambling I asked him exactly what was he selling? I still didn't get a direct answer. I told him to keep paying for his electric bill and I'd keep using mine. (which was what he was selling) to bust up corporations by small company's selling electricity.
He said don't you want to bust up monopoly company's? I said Oh yea, really helped with Ma Bell didn't it? At which I hung up. I'm not sure the kid got I was being sarcastic at first. Anyway It's annoying that he can't even tell me what he's selling for the first 5 minutes of the phone call. That's annoying the rambeling chatter with no point. I don't usually give them 5 minutes more like 5 seconds.

Don't forget Armo, get those cookies! They stay fresh in the freezer for a year but I've never had a box last more than 3 hours...

Samoas®/Caramel deLites? - 19%
Peanut Butter Patties®/Tagalongs® - 13% 
Peanut Butter Sandwich/Do-si-dos? - 11%

Makes 108 cookies.  Reduce the recipe by baking only 1/3 of the cookie dough for the wafers and then reducing the coating ingredients by 1/3, to give you a total of 36 cookies.

Chocolate Cookie Wafers
1 18.25-ounce package Betty Crocker chocolate fudge cake mix
3 tablespoons shortening, melted
1/2 cup cake flour, measured then sifted
1 egg
3 tablespoons water
Non-stick cooking spray

Coating
3 12-ounce bags semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
6 tablespoons shortening 

1. Combine the cookie ingredients in a large bowl, adding the water a little bit at a time until the dough forms.  Cover and chill for 2 hours.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
3.  On a lightly floured surface, roll out a portion of the dough to just under 1/16 of an inch thick.  To cut, use a lid from a spice container with a 1 1/2-inch diameter (Schilling brand is good.)  Arrange the cut dough rounds on a cookie sheet that is sprayed with a light coating on non-stick spray.  Bake for 10 minutes.  Remove the wafers from the oven and cool completely.
4.  Combine chocolate chips with peppermint extract and shortening in a large microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl.  Heat on 50 percent power for 2 minutes, stir gently, then heat for an addition minute.  Stir once again, and if chocolate is not a smooth consistency, continue to zap in microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
5.  Use a fork to dip each wafer in the chocolate, tap the fork on the edge of the bowl so that the excess chocolate runs off, and then place the cookies side-by-side on a wax paper - lined baking sheet.  Refrigerate until firm.

tsargent,

I didn't mean that the way it sounded! I'm very glad you all are so protective of your daughters (my husband included!), and that you make a point of getting that message across to the boys who come "courting", it just amazes me to see the lengths that some fathers go to in making that point!

I'm sorry I wasn't clearer before. Us Moms all rely on you Dads for just such protectiveness!

I do love to watch people spoon feed infants. Usually everytime they go to put the spoon full into the childs mouth they open their mouth. I sit there and laugh when I watch people do that. It's pure comical!

PS : I know I'm bad laughing at someone else but just sit back and watch this it is really funny to watch and see if you laugh too.

Better yet - look for someone with a kid like mine. When he was a little tyke my wife was doing th same thing - forcefeeding spinach or something he didn't care for. He waited until both cheeks were stuffed, and then blasted it all over the kitchen. Not sure why I was the only one laughing!

Like a charm.. for one thing.. I live a five iron off a very busy four lane..
This cat was wandering the neighborhood, sleeping on my back porch funiture, leaving it covered in hair..Im allergic to cats.. I like them , but they make me very ill..along with stalking my bird feeders.. and getting a few Gold Finches..
To add insult to injury , it was using my herb garden as a toilet.. ugh the SMELL ..

Sooo, I really did'nt want to trap it , and let Animal Control take it ..
the owner did'nt seem to care where it was most of the time..
it would have been put down before they found it at the pound,,
I just could NOT live with that ...

So I shot it in the butt , from a good distance,( I KNOW paint balls sting...)
twice wink.gif
I think the cat and the owner got the message..

In Service to the Dream,
Paula

The paintball gun is an elegant solution. I have used a slingshot to deter cats. When I was about 15, I used a muskrat trap. My mother was NOT amused about having to release a cat from the trap in the front yard (lots of flopping around and screeching). Needless to say, the cat avoided our yard after that. I was a wild child from the mountains at that time. I have become SLIGHTLY more civilized since then. angel_not.gif

If I lived further out, I could perhaps see, letting a cat wander...

Rose, did you have cats, or did they have you? It's been said that you never own a cat, they just choose to stay with you. wink.gif

Posted by: Knightly Knight 15-Mar-2004, 06:10 PM
Everybody is missing the point . Shoot the pet owner, not the pet

Also once I put up an electric, invisible fence and gave the electronic shock collars to all the owners of the pets in the neighboor. My dog already knew to stay in the yard. I taught the other pets to stay out also. I was the town hero for giving away so many collars. Too bad I couldn't get the owners to put one on also>

Hi Cello Chick,

Welcome to the forum, I had actually started to write this and welcome you earlier but then I realized you were from Minnesota and for some reason that was such a distraction that I ended up just hitting the return button for some reason. I will have to wait until our resident psychiatrist, Dr. Peckery returns to the board to shell out some bananas and find out why that happened, in the meantime please accept my apologies and we really are glad to see you hanging around our hallowed and ivy covered halls. (Must speak to housekeeping about that stuff, they must have ran out of that string stuff for their weedeaters.) biggrin.gif

My biggest pet peeves:

Folks who stop in the middle of the aisle (usually at Wal-Mart) to gab and hold up everyone else up
Kids who say "yep" when called
Glasses on tables without coasters (call me anal, I can't help it)
I HATE repeating myself (my daughter is almost a teenager and I find this one REALLY gets on my nerves)
Sales clerks that constantly want to know if they can "help you find something" even after you've been quite clear that they can't or you're only looking

Actually, I disagree with that. I think turning your signal on too early is a safety hazard. One of the reasons we use them is to warn the ppl behind you that you will be slowing down soon. If it's on too early, the folks behind you tend to blow it off, so they can be surprised when you finall do slow down. Plus, someone in a driveway or street might be expecting you to turn in, so they may proceed into the street. That's all on top of the general irritation factor.

You could also just drink half a glass at a time, then it's only half the calories. tongue.gif

GRRRR! I hate when some bozo takes up 2 parking spots I went into get some bagles this morning. This guy comes into the parking lot right after me in his Grand Prix and proceeds to park at an angel half in one spot, half in a handicap spot. I wanted to yell at the guy.

When I encounter someting like that, I congratulate them on their wonderful parking! I tell them I am sure that they handle the REST of their life just as well. biggrin.gif

I hate(love) when people lock their cars with the the remote, that sound drives me nuts but not as nuts when I make an identical sound when the driver starts to walk away. It makes them crazy.

It's fun to set off the panic button in this situation. tongue.gif

I have to lock my car from the outside. Volkswagen, and most other German car makers, make it almost impossible to lock you keys in your car. The lock button from the driver's door (or the passenger's) doesn't work when the door is open. Yes I could use the key, but it's much more convenient to use the remote.

Lock the car from outside only....
that's because we Germans love to be on the safe side, no unnecessary risks...the "normal" Germans do so at least, me and my fellow nuts ones not absolutely... biggrin.gif

It makes absolute sense. Really. I haven't locked my keys in my car in a long time, even b/4 I had my Jetta, but I know a people who do it on a regular basis.

Oh sure, it makes sense! I just couldn't resist to grin a bit... wink.gif

How about people who get really whiney for no reason over insignificant little stuff that means nothing to anyone, who act like they're 10 when they're really 30. That bugs me... and arrogance and narrow minded people definitely.
