Pet Peeves v. u mad?

^ I haven't heard that.

Anyways I hate seeing mothers giving their small 1-4 year olds latex balloons, okay if that shit pops in there face then that kid could be fucked. Use common sense.
 
Lets say the kid is giggling the balloon pops, latex breaks up into small pieces it can get lodges into their throat, leading them to choke. It can happen and latex is the worst for toddlers.

I'm not saying this happens everyday, like shootings in philly.
 
^Yeah it did feel kinda dangerous then wasn't a toddler but a kid. and I'm blazed and retarded pretty much. Lol pistolvania!

if I were normal justified not being on tonight cos i'm like 8 or more hours ahead of you and them taking too long to make hannibal season 2 would be a pet peeve. but im very easily entertained.
 
They won't be able to ban the e-cigs themselves, just as they have been unable to ban any type of weed paraphernalia. However, the FDA may come to more stringently regulate the fluids.

Such a ban is in effect in pdx, but it's not really enforced. You just have to be just somewhat considerate and avoid blowing scented clouds at people willy nilly.
...
I don't like "butt-hurt" or in particular "butt buddies". The latter just has that light tinge of homophobia that's the icing on the cake. . .

these are my pet peeves currently:

1. going to the hood and hanging out with a lot of black guys who are all using the word 'nigga' without being able to use it (white guy) myself
2. when ESPN shows cycle through the same filler sports' stories all day
3. real strict Hispanic people who latch onto southern, American culture - very odd but common as hell
4. having to switch to a smartphone just because everyone else is doing it
5. seeing family relatives after years and years - and you never wanted to see them again, realistically
6. being the OBVIOUS black sheep of the family
7. how fortunes can change in a matter of minutes/hours/days
8. how some people on Bluelight just seem to be, well, spelling-deficient
9. how art has lost consciousness in the Western world in the course of the 20th/21st century - we used to be fucked, sure, but at least we had art
10. when you love good rap from the 90's that has complex word schemes and that other people can't casually get into technically anyway since the rapping is using old-school ebonics (or, inner-city slang in general) that usually takes multiple listens to even understand - not to mention, you definitely can't show this type of shit to your family - it's all about drugs and druggies, son
 
^ You are setting yourself up for a lot of those. You don't need a smartphone, you don't have to go to the hood, you don't have to listen to modern rap or watch ESPN, etc.

But yes, it is unfortunate about the decline of art and the lack of deep spirituality in the West. I'm into tantric Buddhism, but I am peeved how the West has turned this into sexual smut. Sex is just a small part of the tantra, but it seems to be the only part of it that the West cares to grasp.

I am also peeved by strangers who insist on small-talking with you in public restrooms. Or people who whistle/hum obnoxiously in public restrooms.
 
they're all just subjective as you can get, and they were all on my mind, so...

but yes, I get that my peeves are very much avoidable.

if I'd been sober, I probably would have just listed 3, 5, 6, and 8. everything else is, admittedly, meh.

Quote from RedLeader: "You are setting yourself up for a lot of those. You don't need a smartphone, you don't have to go to the hood, you don't have to listen to modern rap or watch ESPN, etc."

In my defense let me at least say I know I don't need a smartphone, my family haggled me for two years to get one before I caved in. And all the other points would make sense if you knew me personally.

A pet peeve of mine has always been people that don't have empathy for others, and allow themselves to grow old and bitter. Sometimes this type of behavior coincides with a belief that there is some ordering of "worth" among humans, where some are above others because of what they've done in life, or even worse, what family they're born into. It seems to me that in order to view people in such a way, one would need to trivialize the environment and circumstances a person is molded within. I've certainly come a very long way in the past decade, and am doing things I could probably take great pride in if I didn't wholly detest pride. Perhaps some people need to experience what it's like to be homeless and alone?

Also, I suppose you could add pedantry to the list, though the line of work I'm in certainly requires it in the end (which more than likely is why I am annoyed with it!).
 
People who overuse things like "haha" and "lol" when texting.

Also, people who send about 5 texts in a row when what was being said could have easily fit into one message.
 
Being on a 1 mb dsl line is probably one of my biggest peeves. Knowing the speeds u guys are on (40 mb +) and friends who have left this hell hole (at times) are on (also 40 mb +).

and having to pay 50 of ur dollars and over 500 ish of my gengastones for the above internet service.

But I'm too lazy to change to a sligtly better ISP and upgrading to say 4 mb for rouuuuuuuuuughly the same price.
 
One of my biggest pet peeves right now is that glazed-over dumb look people get in the grocery store. Ohhhh it drives me batshitcrazy! I'm usually grocery shopping with a grumpy toddler and I try to get it over with as quickly as possible..and then I come across all of these people who are just pussy-footing around as if they have all had lobotomies and have no idea who they are, much less where they are and what they're doing there. Fuck, it makes me mad just thinking about it. :/
You should see me weaving in and out of these fools.
