Pet Peeves

I do this.... usually not meaning to be rude.

Usually it's because I don't know how to respond, it's going to take me a long time to respond, or I forgot about the message. :\

Oh, and I too hate the fucking spellchecker, it makes my life more difficult than easy. :p

theres a bit of a difference though. I sent my brother two messages and he read them but never replied
it just annoys me to no end :!
 
Fjones how can you not like the spellcheker!!!!!

its saved me so many times!
hahahahha
you do have to watch what its changing your "misspellings" though because as you said it can try and mess you up sometimes.

Well, also, it doesn't recognize words with a semicolon as a "word."

SO, if i type "didn;t" instead of "didn't" it looks at "didn" as a separate word and asks me to change to something, thus leaving the ;t as a separate "word."

This is really annoying because I miss the apostrophe key 90% of the time and hit the semicolon key instead. I solved it by ripping out the semicolon key, but now when I want a colon or semicolon I have to jam the end of a pencil into the keyboard to press where the button used to be.
 
On the drop down menu with the smileys, there are 15. If you click "more" it shows you.... SIXTEEN!? Why can't it just show all 16 without having to click "more?"
 
^ That is rather silly. However, I have come to the conclusion that you make the internet way more difficult than it needs to be. Just memorize all the smiley-faces. I probably use them more often than you so it might have been easier for me to just learn them.

:) :D =D :o
 
That might be true. But, bear in mind I do not have a semicolon or colon key. So, typing them manually is difficult.

Besides, if I focused on actually solving my minor problems, what would I have to complain about?? :D
 
True! Or people who only, ONLY talk about themselves. They go on and on and on and they never ever even ask anything about you. Self centered twats.

Uhmmmm yeeees, I hate this. Seriously, I'm a good listener but at a certain point I just want to suggest that perhaps a tape recorder would be a better friend than an actual human being.

Pet peeve for the day: people who FREAK out about letting me into their lane. This annoys me so much I cannot even explain... I'm generally a nice person, about letting me in, admitedly I have my moments but some bitch seriously tried to RUN me off the road today because she did NOT want me to be able to get into her lane (one of those this-land-will-dissapear-move-quickly things). Like come on, you'll lose a fucking millisecond of time.... :X:X
 
I've had this happen a few times at work in the past couple of days.

People come into the station and just hand me their card and stare at me. WTF!?!

It is a simple process really.

You pull in and tell me what you want by speaking to me.

I actually have to tell people that I can not read their minds. This shits me! Although I amuse myself by coming up with a new way of explaining that I am still working on my powers of telepathy each time this happens.

:D
 
I'm sure I probably mentioned it before, but I don't care if I have. It's extremely annoying:

People that sit RIGHT next to me on the bus when there are clearly other seats available that wouldn't be right next to someone. Also, people that try to talk to me on the bus even though I'm obviously listening to music or busy doing something else. Ear buds = DON'T TALK TO ME
 
It says embarrassment but I just don't see it. That's my pet peeve.

Why is the emoticon's mouth open? Why is it's eyes closed?

arggggggg
 
Another forum I visit has this emoticon
