What are your biggest pet peeves?
My2Beauties wrote: For me it's:
#1 Money - because I never have any 
#2 My job - I just plain old do not like this place anymore
#3 Dutch Ovens (for those of you who do not know what these are, it's when a person breaks wind underneath the covers and then proceeds to put the cover over their partner's head so they can smell it)  Brian does this to me all the time and it's getting gross
#4 Stupid people - 'nuff said
#5 Insurance companies, which I work for one, see #2
#6 People who cannot drive (especially people over the age of 65 who should be re-tested again) and go about 30 MPH in the fast lane on the expressway
#7 The fact that Brian's cousin lets her little girl come over my house and ransack Hanna's room and then leaves the mess in there, doesn't even offer to clean it up - she did this last night and Hanna has a puzzle that spells out her name and one of the pieces is missing, so I have added this to my list of pet peeves
#8 President George W Bush - he is visiting Louisville tomorrow JOY  He'll be one block away from me and they are closing down Main St downtown (which is the street my building is located on) for his butt during rush hour, I oughta enjoy my ride home 
#9 Guys in bars - the ones that when you tell them you are engaged/married/have a SO and they just don't get the point, they come back with that "So can you have a friend on the side" line Get a clue buddy
#10 My desk - it's too small for all my stuff 
OK that is my top 10 list!! I am really not in a bad mood today just got an e-mail about the parking garages that will be closed tomorrow due to the president's visit which made me realize one of them then started thinking about that puzzle piece which brought up another one, but the main reason for this post, I was looking through an AVON book and I want everything in it but I don't have enough money  So, hence, the reason for this post!
Maddie&EthansMom replied: LMBO!! You crack me up! I was beginning to wonder what happened to you today for you to post such a negative nelly post such as this!
Okay, for my pet peeves....
#1 I'm so with you on the old people driving!!!
#2 I HATE LOUD BASS IN CARS!!!!! UGH! There is an apartment not far from our house and they drive down our street at all hours of the night with this BOOM BOOM BOOM! It rattles my brain! I hate it!!
#3 My dog is REALLY my biggest pet peeve right now. What a coincedence!! He is so irritating. I'm ready to give him away to the first person that comes along. I love my dog, he was my first baby, but OMG!! He is making me 
#4 Rude people.....
#5 Attention seeking, self conscious 30 something year olds that can't take responsibility for their own actions and face the consequences for their stupidity.
Ahem, anyway....that is all I could think of at the moment. LOL!

4-Drivers who wave me across the street at an intersection when I'm taking a
walk-I know they are just being polite but it is going to take me way longer to
cross the darn street with 3 kids in tow than it would take for them to just drive
on through.
5-People who use the 12 items or less lane with a cart full of groceries-man that
ticks me off!

jcc64 replied:
OK, thanks, I just spit my coffee all over the desk!
I thought my little brother was the only one that used that term!
God, I'm kind of afraid to get started! Kimberly's list had alot of mine. I guess I can add:
Nasty medical receptionists/school secretaries/gov't officials, etc,- anyone in an officious position who wields his/her "power" like a weapon.
Hyper parents- namely parents who believe their children's fragile psyches will be irreparably damaged by the notion that not everyone can be equal/the best/ a winner ALL THE TIME. Maybe, just maybe, your child might learn more by losing than winning.
People who cannot/will not look beyond their own backyards.
Kicking people when they're down. Why has it become socially/politically acceptable to despise and disregard poor/disenfranchised people while simultaneously ramming hypocritical piety, morality and self righteousness down my throat?!
OK, I'm getting all aggravated, I better stop
mammag replied: I'm hesitant to answer this cuz I just know I'll offend someone but......
(some of these will be repeats of what others said)
In no particular order..
1. When people make dinner plans and come a couple hours late (MIL & SIL)
2. Making dinner plans with someone and they show up drunk and embarrass us (Dd)
3. Liberals (Sorry  )
4. People who stick their icky feet up on the dashboard.
5. People who are "Chillin" (Loud bass, spinners, pants falling down, "bling bling")
6. Trashy People (women wearing too revealing clothes or men unbuttoning their shirts to show their hairy chests)
7. Tacky People
8. When people speak in other languages to each other when you are sitting there with them and they know you don't understand the language.
9. People who say (in reference to the number of kids I have) "there is a way to prevent that you know"
10. Nosey people
11. People who act like they know everything there is to know about something even if they don't
12. People who put on the "I'm a great mom" show when they are around other parents.....when I know how crappy they are (mom I babysit for)
I'm sure I could go on forever.........I'm sounding like a mean person right now though so I'll stop.
kimberley replied: this thread is fun 
i cannot stand people who can NEVER make a decision. ugh!!!! salad or fries... is it really that freakin hard?!
close minded people. you have no idea what you are missing!!! if you are too afraid to try something, at least have the decency not to put me down for having the courage to live life fully!
friends who call you in crisis everyday . then when you have a real problem, they top that with yet another one of their crises.
people who say "huh" everytime you say something . then you don't repeat yourself and find out they heard you the first time!
weak mama's boys. be a man already!
people who talk bigger than they are. don't play all "ejimakated" when you are not. close your mouth, open your ears and learn something!
quitters!
people who constantly correct your grammar or spelling... especially online
poor table manners
extremists . life is about moderation! lots of gray areas!
and again, i have to add whiners! get off your butt and do something about your life then!
My2Beauties replied:
Mammaq..I am SO not trying to start a debate, but what do you mean by daycare moms??? I'm just curious 
kit_kats_mom replied: Lee Ann, I think she's referring to a mom at the daycare who fits that description. LOL
My2Beauties replied: OK, that is why I asked first! Sorry! I was making sure she wasn't saying moms who take their kids to daycare are crappy...I just didn't want any hurt feelings!
mammag replied:
Oh, I just reread that and it sounded different then I meant it. I just meant one of the moms that I watch her child not people who take their kids to daycare. This woman in particular does so many things that are just plain mean to her child and then when we are in a group setting like at the preschool we both take our children to she puts on this big act like she is so loving and does so much for her child. I've posted about her before and it would be too long if I go into it all but I hope it didn't make anyone think I meant people who take their kids to daycare while they work because I admire (and sometimes envy) those women.
I hope this clarified it better. I'll edit the other post.
jcc64 replied:
Welcome to my life on every major holiday! My inlaws have been in this country for 32 years now, I would think you'd have to TRY not to learn English after that amount of time, especially considering the fact that they've owned several businesses! I'm so grateful my kids are there now so I have someone to talk to.
And btw, we "liberals" aren't all bad!
mammag replied:
That's who it is with me... the inlaws. They are from the Phillipines and start speaking Tagalouge (sp??) when they are all together. I feel like an outcast. But, like you, it's better now that I have the kids.
I'm glad you aren't taking the Liberal comment too hard. I have some liberal family but I love them any way despite their wro...I mean different views. Hey, life wouldn't be fun if there wasn't anyone to debate with.
