Pet Peeves

    hehe... i'd piss you off. I love to chew ice. And I stare. I don't necessarily stare at anything, but I just stare. At nothing.
    And, you reminded me of another mine, because you did it. Use of words like retarded, gay, etc, to mean you do not like someone, something, or a person has poor taste, or is unintelligent. I've been known to correct a person when who uses these words improperly, but i'm not doing that right now. I think i'll just go chew some ice and stare mindlessly instead.

    I am reminded of the scene from "Smokey and the Bandit" when Jerry "Snowman" Reed gets beaten up by a biker gang. He and his dog flash finally make it back to the truck. He starts up, releases the brakes, looks up, and smiles a bloody smile. And proceeds to drive over the bikes parked neatly in a row.

    Wow, what a peevy bunch of people;)

    I have a lot of the same peeves.

    People who bring their dogs in every four weeks, don't brush them at all, and expect them to be perfect, with no holes where the mats were combed/snipped out annoy me.

    People who talk on cell phones in lines, particularly if I'm behind them or attempting to wait on them, make me want to scream.

    People who assume that my dogs are nice make me want to prove them right, and be soooo mean that they never come near the dogs. People who assume that my dogs are mean make me want to prove them wrong by being sooo mean that they never come near the dogs;) I'm not big on assumptions.

    People who walk up t o grooming tables and pet dogs AFTER you tell them that the dog is not nice make me want to bite them, myself. The body block doesn't always work when you're half the size of the petter.

    People who say words that don't exist, or make up words that "sound right" (which is especially interesting in  the health food store, when DHEA becomes "Duheeya") really get on my nerves.

    How about people who are just ahead of you in line at the bank or store and then you wait another ten minutes for them to fill out a deposit slip or write out their check now that they are at the counter/checkout.  Is there some reason why they didn't fill it out before getting in line, or while waiting in line?  It's not like you don't know who to make the check to...duh! Wally World! Or the date...duh!  Fill in the month and year and add the date when you get the total, and sign your freaking name or are you standing in line trying to remember what color paint the bedroom ceiling should be?  A deposit slip? What the heck is a deposit slip??  Account number?  Adding?  signature line??  All foreign concepts when in front of me somewhere!!   [sm=angry.gif]    Ack!! Look at the monster you let loose, I'm gonna go do deep breathing excercises now.   Jules

    Ok, I guess I said something wrong here[8|] - time to fix it...?

    I hate when people stare at me like in a store - I dont care if you stare, I stare, everyone stares... I just dont like when someone stares at me for a long time.  So, no, youw ould not piss me off because you stare at nothing, sorry if I offended you somehow.

    I would never actually say are you retarded to someone, I was pretty much just being sarcastic and joking around about how much it annoys me when people do that....  its all in good fun (this thread)...  [:D]
     
    No hard feelings [:)].... everyone does something that is a peeve of someone elses, except me of course[;)]  (I feel like I should add Im just kidding about that last part[:)])

    No no no, no hard feelings. I said it that way because I was being sarcastic about it.

    Some more pet peeves
     
    People that leave their dog in their car especially when it's hot outside!
     
    People that show up to pick up their dog and wont leave when you are trying to finish up on the dog and wont be quiet while the dog is going nuts on the table wanting to be with their owner.
     
    People that want their dog back in 2 hours when the dog is hard to work with, has matts, bites, and call every 20 mintues.
     
    People that don't know what they want done to their dog and just want you to make it look cute. I can make a dog look cute in very many ways!
     
    People that come to USA and never learn the english language

    I guess right now it would have to be the *nobody there when you answer* or *recording* phone calls.  We did sign up to not get calls from telemarketers, but these are different. I'll answer the phone and it doesn't matter if it's the first ring or the fourth, there's NOBODY there. [:@][:@] And the caller ID doesn't do any good, because it just says *private*. Or sometimes I pick up the phone and get a recording that starts out like "please hold on for this very important message" or "please find the time to return this very important call" GRRRR. I don't have any problem at all with being put on hold if I initiate the call, but when somebody calls me they'd better be ready to talk when I pick up the phone.

    Ok, here we go. 

    I hate people that push thier carts out of the aisle at Wally World or other big store, heading in one direction but looking in the other.  As if they may decide to turn the other way.  It pisses me off more if they are going at a good speed.  I am trying to get my son to jump in front of them bang on the cart really loud and then fall on the floor crying like they hit him.  Honestly how would they know if they did or not.  They are obviously not watching. I have been know to stand in front of them with a pointed stare ready for when they turn around.

    Along with Ron's comment on the Hot Water Heater, I hate it when people take meat out to Unthaw.  Duh you have to put it back in the freezer to do that.

    Homophobic people.  I had a friend once that insisted that in the Bible it stated that homosexuals were bad because sex was only for procreation, or something along those lines.  But she had no problem being on the pill, carrying condoms with her for chance encounters, and had been with at least 5 different guys in the last 2 months.  Hope this one doesnt cross any lines.

    I also hate people that give thier children what they want when they are screaming.  One woman walked past my kiosk with a screaming 5ish year old boy in her cart.  He was standing up, red faced, stamping his feet, and screaming,"Get me a Movie you stupid woman!  I want a movie right this minute!" at the top of his lungs.  And guess what she did?  Did a Uturn and headed right into HMV.  I could still hear him screaming in there,"No Not That One!  I Want That One!"  Guess what she came out with?

    I thought of more[:)]

    One of our neighbors walks his dog with a golf club.  I originally thought it was to correct the poor dog but when another neighbors dog went running over to him one day he almost hit her with it!  I was screaming at him like What are you doing!!!??  He said theres a leash law and thats the reason he carries his golf club everywhere - to protect his dog from everyone elses!  OMG.
    Anyway, I see him walk by our house twice a day carrying a golf club on his shoulder[:'(]

    The neighbors right next to us have a two story and their kids (teens) go sit on the roof and look into our backyard while we have company and stuff.  Im dreaming of the day when I decide to throw water balloons or something at them- maybe a water gun.

    People at the bar who put like 500 sets of quarters on the pool table and keep playing like they have somehow reserved it for the night.

    People who constantly talk about their money[:'(]

    Its so fun to read everyones peeves!

    By Pool Hall Ethics where there is a coin operated table, this is not allowed.  The person playing on the table only has rights to the table by a win.  They may not reserve the table with money but must play the challenger for rites.  If they lose they may add their money to the end of the line of challengers.  If there are no challengers they may pay for the next game and challenge.
