name your top 3 pet peevs

There are two things I can't stand;

Intolerence of any kind, and

The Dutch

;)
 
Stjames, reminds me of "Blazing Saddles"...LMAO

My pet peeve is fellow forumites who post anonymous negative comments in ones userCP about other peoples posts on "whine and cheese" or the "political forums". Have some huevos boys. I' wont' bite your head off....I WILL cut it off though. Some of you fellers must have come from communist countries. You are allowed to speak your piece here in the good O'l US of A. As it say's ,faint hearted commies stay out.

Whine & Cheese -Not for the faint of heart - this forum is where the bastid's come to roost. If you are easily offended, have delicate feelings, sensitive eyes, or a heart condition, STAY OUT!!!!

BladeForums.com Political Arena
Where you can discuss the political issues concerning Knife Users.
 
1. Ingratitude and bad manners. I still believe in saying thanks and no thanks and letting people know you appreciate things they do for you.

2. Wishy washy people. I can't stand folks who make a big deal out of the simpliest decisions.

3. People who think too highly of themselves. Confidence is good. Arrogance sucks.
 
Things I Dislike Strongly:
#3) Disrespect to those who have earned it (Veterans, the elderly and anyone approaching that designation, the disabled), those who have enough to worry about as is (disabled/special needs, people in menial, low-pay jobs), and children.

Seriously, some people have no control over themselves, so they abuse the power that their station gives them. Does the pizza delivery guy really need to deal with you stiffing him on his tip? He's already driving in the snow in a Civic to give you your pizza, give him some respect, and 20%.

#2) Simplistic and uncreative insults. I love insults, I think its a grand game, but nothing dissapoints me more than just using vulgarity. I live in NYC, you really think I haven't heard (and been called) far worse things than ***hole? More to the point, are you so dumb that you can't come up with a more clever insult? Now if someone said to me "May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits!" I'd be impressed. Mere vulgarity is passe at this point.

and the grand prize:

the #1 thing that annoys me.

All Show And No Go. This applies to people, cars, companies, everything.

For example: Don't yell, scream, bitch and moan about how you're going to hit me, just fscking hit or walk away. Don't put a ginormous wing and a fart can on your civic and then feel proud when you (barely) outrun my Volvo. Don't drive an SUV if you don't know how and don't use it.

The classic example of this is the "Tough Guy" syndrome.

Ever notice that those who talk big seldom actually *do* anything? I'm never worried about the loud, obnoxious prat yelling in my face, its the quiet guy in the corner that I keep my eyes on. It's not SUVs I see at construction sites, its minivans, family sedans and 20-year-old pickups.

OK, self, calm down. Look at the kitty: http://www.kittenbreak.com/index.php?ID=892

3.) People who react like morons when they see you with a knife or gun in your hands. Also, people who react like imbeciles when you even mention self-defense, knives, guns, etc...

4.) People who come to my home and think that they can treat my dogs like...well...dogs. :confused: :D

Those are two reasons why I moved out into the country.(atleast semi-rurally)

As badly as I react when someone does me wrong, I'd react a million times worse if someone would merely look at my dog the wrong way.(I have a new female pitbull puppy named Dixie).

Pushing or kicking my dog would lead to an automatic execution with no chance of 'stay' from the guvner.

My four pet peaves are
1. People
2. People
3. People
4. People who think pitbulls are evil dogs, but I guess that could fall under my general pet peave of people.

Not all people, but an increasing majority of them in any case.
As you can tell, I'm a people person! :D
 
1. People who call my restaurant wanting delivery who a) don't know their address, b) don't know what they want, and c) aren't there when the driver gets there because they went to Blockbuster.

2. Wind. I ride a bicycle everywhere, and no matter which direction I'm going, the wind is against me. I'm convinced that I have the Power of God, because all I have to do is make a turn and I can controll the weather.

3. Stopping at the Circle K right next to the strip club on the way home right after 2am when the place is crammed with overly perfumed whores and drunken idiots that think they're gonna score with them.

4. People who don't use turn signals.

5. People who use turn signals, but never turn.

6. People who give more responses that the question asks for. :footinmou
 
ADDED:

Teachers (especially PhD's) who are very intelligent, know it and are extremely impressed with themselves and their knowledge. . .yet lack the ability to get a simple point (educational material) across. You know the ones. . .they have that, "I'm glad that I am able to grace you with my presense and I know that you're impressed by me" attitude. :barf:
 
1. gf's parents
2. people who look like my gf's parents
3. people who act like my gf's parents....
4. people that are closed off, isolated and/or stuck in their ways to the point of no return like my gf's parents.
5. non-smokers who like to bitch, especially former smokers.
6. people who tail gate me and think I did something wrong when I slam on my breaks just enough to give them a heart attack.
7. people who shoot off but don't stand up for themselves when confronted about it.
8. did I mention my gf's parents and how I hate them?
 
1. people who blast thier horn at me when Im biking..phuckers
2. Tactical Mall ninjas and thier bullshiit stories
3. Telemarketers who call me to see if I am happy with thier service..JFC I got a call last week from the auto dealership asking if I would like to take a few moments to respond to how I liked thier monthly news letter they mail me.." I get a news letter????" Phuck off...I dont read junk mail..or Nextel calling me to "remind me that using my two way feature on my phone saves me $$ in long distance...No shiiit..I was wondering what that little button was for!!! PHUCK OFF
4. dicksmacks who dont respect my privacy!!
 
1) Bullies or those who victimize the weak/poor/uninformed.
2) Zealots of any stripe. Minds are like parachutes- they only function when open.
3) Most recent: Drunks who run you all night & ring up a $285.00 tab & then "round it up to $300.00" & pat you on the back & think they've really made your night :mad: Now I'll go buy that Range Rover I've been looking at :rolleyes:
 
1) People that are NOT hard workers. :yawn:
2) Stupid drivers that think the left lane is for slow moving traffic. :mad:
3) Spoiled teenagers. :grumpy:
 
1- People that become parents and think their lifestyle shouldn't change.
2- Parents that just drop off their kids to birthday parties,sports activities, etc, and don't even get out of the car.
3- Parents that don't discipline their children, with at least a "stop doing that or I will kill you" look of disapproval that the child will understand.
 
1-Packs of bicyclist taking up a whole lane so that no one can pass. Somethimes this applies to a single bicyclist, but not offen.

2- People who blindly believe what they see on TV or read in the newspaper.

3- People that don't control thier pets. If I wanted your dog jumping up on me, I'd have a pork chop hanging around my neck. And my yard is NOT a litter box for your cats/dogs.
 
1) Underconfidence- Learn to speak up and hold your head higher. Look in the eyes of the person your speaking to. Be lod and proud of who you are and what you stand for.

2) Like someone said before: People who are not hard workers- It seems like some folks my age never had someone teach them the true meaning of working hard, doing a job right, and the American way. It pisses me off when I do a small job (like removing a big-ass pile of cedar shingles) for someone, I ask a friend for help, and all they do is work slow, bitch about getting payed too little, and stand around like they aint on a job. Work hard, play hard, eat good, and enjoy life by realizing you completed something.

3) Quitters- I HATE QUITTERS! I don' care about losing, but when someone quits I get real pissed off. I cannot respect a quitter. Learn determination, and remember "Pain is weakness leaving the body". The harder you push yourself, the stronger you get, physically and mentally.

Grrrrr ...ARF !!!

I am crippled. Sometimes I walk with a cane. On bad days, I walk slowly and clumsily. And STILL there are people who think I want their #$%^ing dogs jumping on me, when I obviously have trouble balancing on my own.

We have a park, posted "No dogs allowed". No one minds a leashed dog on the wide trails. But dogs running free, out of their owners' sight? Often. When I ask them to please secure their dogs, they're offended.
 
Next time a dog comes runnin up and jumps on you, fall down and start shakin and slobberin and then sue the crap out of the owners. :)
 
#1) Loud People: there are people who can't spend 5 seconds of their lives without making enough noise to wake the dead. In stores, they're on their cellphone, screaming, in walkie-talkie mode (that way we get to hear BOTH sides of your inane conversation... "Wa sup. Nutin' much. Where yat?"). Then they do back to their car with a megaphone on the exhaust so their 120hp car sounds like a go-cart that's ready to explode.

#2) Ignorant Parents: You're in a restaurant (non-kiddie type), bookstore, Home Depot, WHATEVER and the kids are running up and down the isles and screaming the same four words to a song that they heard back in July, over and over again while the parents are wandering around wondering what IQ stands for.

#3) Crappy Products: I can't remember the last time that I bought something that wasn't defective. Will SOMEBODY please LOOK at your products before you ship them to me or I'm going to show up at your company and shove an obnoxious child up your oversized exhaust pipe!!!

Where were those kitty pictures?

I got the two combined just the other day as the kids ran through the store uncontrolled while mom chatted on the phone virtually ignoring her kids. Of course, I could only hear her part of the conversation, but every sentence she said was either "Oh my gawd," or was prefaced with "Oh my gawd..." Every sentence.

I want to be there when her kids pick that up and she utters, "Oh my gawd, where did they learn to tawk like that?"




I like the people on the cell phone when it goes like this: "I can't hear you... you're breaking up.... I'm on my cell phone... I can't hear you... what did you say?... what?... I've got static... what did you say?... you're breaking up... this connection is bad... Maybe my battery is low... what?..." Boy, this is a really productive conversation, isn't it? What do these people think? They're saving themselves time this way? Yes, they're multitasking, but the second task consists of simply complaining about a bad cell phone connection.
 
These people with cell phones have just gotten crazy lately. I was in line at the grocery the other day when the woman in line behind me whips out her phone and dials. Of course, I can only hear her: "It's me. I'm in the checkout line at the store. I luv you. Buh bye."

What in the world is that? Apparently she thinks her life is interesting enough to give a step-by-step account to someone.

That or she was checking in with her parole officer...

I don't know.
