Pet Peeves

This is my ultimate pet peeve--

when I go to a store and but something and the cashier hands me crisp bills first and then the coins and my other hand is filled with my bags, so I am left to try to just grab the money by crushing it and then the coins inevitably fall out and the cashier looks at me like *I'M* the douchebaggy idiot.
 
where you at? i hate it when people end sentences with prepositions. it drives me nuts.

I am failing at posting today...what I was trying to say was that if you are from chicago I bet you get that a lot. I never knew that most of the world would look at me like an idiot when I say "wanna come with?" instead of "wanna come with me?"
 
anybody at a bar or restaurant with a tv that requests it be switched to whatever game is on.

It's even worse when the receipt gets caught up in that madness. Ten times worse.

OMG so true! i kind of worked my way around it...I always keep my wallet open (with the coin compartment in the middle ) and immediately put it under her hand to catch the falling coins (of course, I motion to her to please let it fall there...) than I swipe the paper money with my hand and stuff it in the wallet before picking up my bags.

This usually works for me 98.57% of the time.
 
These are great! Especially TLB. =D

- People who put their feet on the back of my chair in movie theaters. I think they believe it's ok because my head is not near the top of the headrest. It's NOT ok. It's rude and completely inconsiderate. I don't want your nasty shoes or at its worse your FEET above my head. It's downright nasty not to mention extremely annoying and distracting.

- People who let their children go absolutely WILD in a supermarket. I'm not talking letting kids wander around a little bit. Children are children and should not be expected to be angels all the time. I realize that. I'm talking ramming carts into the sideboard of freezers, knocking things all over the floor and screaming at the top of their lungs without stopping. Some parents think their kids are invisible or something. YOU chose to have them, be responsible for them!

- People who saunter into the middle of the street at night and act like I'm crazy for honking at them. 8( That's how people get killed.

- When I was living in an apartment building and had to share washers/dryers and people would leave their laundry in the machines for days on end. I don't want to touch your underwear! I can't believe you would want me touching your intimates either... let alone allowing everyone to see it. Gross.

- People who talk in class without any inclination to lowering their voices. If you have something to say raise your hand or, at least, speak quietly. Didn't you learn this in 1st Grade? 8(

- People who eat noisy or extremely smelly food in class. I'll never understand why people find this acceptable.

- People who refuse to watch films because they're black and white.

- People who refuse to watch foreign films because they'll "have to read".
 
Forgot one: I always go to the same liquor store because it's within walking distance and I can't justify wasting gas/ fumes/ etc. when I can simply walk to the close store. Anyway the same guy is always working there. He's generally an annoying guy but he always points out that I go there a lot. "You really like that Seven, huh?"... "back again?"... "See you soon, I'm sure". Dude, I know I drink a fair amount. FWIW I'm not picking up alcohol just for myself. I have a partner and we drink together. You work at a fucking LIQUOR STORE. Stop your passive/aggressive judging. 8( Do you do this to all your customers? I just want to buy my booze and leave. Leave your cute little remarks in your head. Jesus. :X
 
people who over-stuff garbage in the can or even set it on top of the can rather than empty the fucking thing...
people who constantly end statements with a questioning inflection of voice?
parents that ignore their kids and then get pissed off when they do something negative to get their attention.
people who won't consistently discipline their pets.
people who do nothing but sit around all day eating cake and cookies... computing or playing video games... and then bitch about how they need to lose weight.
women who assume they should lose "baby weight" without any effort.
people who say "hi" over and over again, when you've been sitting there together for hours.
 
man, i could go on and on about people's behavior in supermarkets...just with the shit that annoyed me before i worked there.

if you are going to steal a few cherries, fine. use the freaking trash can for the pits. don't throw them behind the microwave popcorn. everyone around you knows you stole them. if you are going to be a pig just throw your garbage on the floor.

if you decide you don't want that carton of ice cream, fine. don't leave it in the magazine section though, for crying out loud. put it back on the shelf or have an employee do it for you. it's bad enough to ruin the one item, let alone how many are going to be ruined when it melts.

the same really also applies to the rest of the frozen food section, too. don't put it back on the shelf by the canned beans.

:X :! :X :!
 
People who use their fork like a shovel when they eat.

When you don't smoke but your friends somehow think it'd be okay with you to smoke in your house or car or when they smoke outside they just throw the butts on your grass.

How once you are labeled as "addict" you immediately are the boy who cried wolf (no one believes anything you say, even if it is "the sky is blue").
 
When ppl put their dirty nasty hippie feet (or shoes) on a table. Other people eat off that table!!!
