Pet Peeves

Status
Not open for further replies.
^I prefer drinking out of plastic glasses rather that glass (for water anyway). If I drink anything out of glass I have to smell the glass, rinse it out, and smell it again before I fill it up with what I'm drinking. Kind of a weird habit, I know heh.
 
One of my pet peeves is when people try to read the newspaper, read a novel, or text on their phone whilst walking down the street. It's like they expect you to navigate for them, and it pisses me off. Just stop, pull to the side, then do what you gotta do. Don't hog the entire pavement and waddle along in slow motion!!!. :X

A little while ago, some guy was messing with his phone whilst walking down the street. He was getting so engrossed in what he was doing, and as usual, I got pissed off. Anyway, as he passed me I heard a, "whoooooooooooooooaaa!!!". So I glanced over my shoulder, and to my delight, he'd tripped over this huge step which was supporting this bench. He went flying up in the air, and it was like it was freeze-framed, Matrix style. I felt like going...

One of my biggest pet peeves happened yesterday.

I was staring at a cute guy from a distance, and then I saw him pointing at something with his pinky finger!!!

UGH, I *hate* it when people point with their pinkies!
 
I took an overdose of lactulose unintentionally and shat myself in front of about ten people in public and had to wipe my ass with my socks. THEN, I got stopped by the police for indecent exposure (they let me go after I explained).

How ebarassing!
 
I don't like (especially in professional situations) when someone is pointing out something on a piece of paper and they use their middle finger, feels like they're using that opportunity to flip me off.
I have to scratch my face using the same finger as retaliation.
 
My current best friend really pisses me off on a regular basis. There was a song quite a long time ago, that went 'oh lord stop de carnival' and he thinks it's funny to sing this song constantly, like every fucking five minutes and he doesn't get the message that it's not funny even though I constantly tell him to stop it as it's annoying. Seriously, he doesn't get that a joke is not funny if it's repeated every damn five minutes every time I meet him. He also always says sorry, constantly and when thanking someone, he doesn't just say thaks once he says it repeatedly. When we were paying a taxi fare and getting out at our destination, he managed to say thanks to the driver fifteen times! Very fucking annoying. He also has a load of other infuriating eccentricities which really fucking piss me off. He's also the ugliest person I've ever seen in my life with the biggest forehead I have ever seen (not that that's his fault or anything, but it's strange when he loves his appearance so much and thinks all the women will fall for him, even though he's never had not even one girlfriend). His personal hygeine is also very poor and he goes without having a bath for six days at a time. His place is also a tip and looks like a bomb site with old food packaging everywhere. He literally lives like a pig and this pisses me off when it's completely unnecessary as he's not depressed or anything. He has also never had a job and is 34 years old. Someone asked him if he's ever worked the other day and he actually said, "yes, I used to have a paper round when I was fourteen"! He also claims he is bipolar and gets 'manic' and high when it's blatently not true (I hate it when people claim to have a serious mental illness when there is nothing wrong with them - they usually do it for the attention and to feel different or special, which is pathetic as they should just be content with themselves as they are and not claim they are something that they are not). Sometimes I wonder why we're friends when he generally pisses me off so much.

8o I think I would die from embarrassment. Fuck.

A friend has IBS and has had an accident outside once or twice while walking the dog, luckily, this was in a field not so far from her house.
 
^Yea if you've got a dog with you you can blame it on him....maybe

I think everyone's done the 'soiled-pants walk' at least once in their lives.
Where you rock side to side on each leg, or take really big slow steps.
Not fun.

Also people who fart on public buses/trains in the vicinity of others should be shot with a turd gun.
 
i live pretty close to both a hospital and a fire house, so lots of emergency vehicles are around the neighborhood. it really pisses me off when someone uses the this as an opportunity to blow a red light to save 10 seconds from their precious day.

i am not talking about when you need to go through the light to get out of the way.
 
Here's a new one:

I cannot stand it when people on the internet write "RIP" when they hear of someone's death. I mean, if you really meant it, how long would it take you to type "rest in peace"?
 
Because I bought promethazine from my local pharmacy, they are now refusing to sell me anything over the counter, from paracetamol to cough medicine, as they 'can't guarantee it won't be abused'. Fucking do gooders.

Oh yeah, very annoying, but what I think is worse is when the checkout girl tries to spark up a conversation with you. Not because I'm being rude or ignorant, but because I really don't want to discuss my plans for the weekend or the contents of my shopping basket with total strangers. :!

Like most places we have a local rubbish/garbage skip area for throwing all your crap away. It has a one-way system for your car or van & there is always some old bastard who can't be bothered walking round & drives in behind you with one poxy little bag. You're in the midst of emptying the full contents of a garage from a hired van, so he thinks tooting his horn helps the unloading process. :X

The door holding thing has been mentioned many times, but when you go to London or Birmingham and other major cities in the UK, I've noticed that certain races are a lot worse than others. :\ (no I'm not saying it!)
 
people who simply do not talk, just sit there awkwardly .. and if you talk to them you get a faint smile. just fucking communicate, its rude.

when i ask a random for a light for my smoke, and they insist on lighting it for me. i can do it myself!

when i ring optus, have to change a rateplan and i get a foreigner (indian) i CANNOT UNDERSTAND and it takes me 20 minutes because i have to ask them to repeat the same thing about five times before i decipher it. .. also when they leave you on hold for about 20 minutes then hang up.

not being able to get a cab at night. or when you ring up and its busy

family do's

fran drescher's voice.

men who do not get the point when you clearly are not flirting back, yet proceed to try even after you knock them back!
