Pet Peeves
« on: June 03, 2008, 01:13:26 PM »
Pet Peeves, Whose Got'em?  What are they?

Mine:  Staples, more precisely I hate people who waste staples.  Seeing people waste a staple is like nails on a chalk board.  Kills me.

When people feed wild animals at national parks and places like that, or people who don't clean up after themselves when they are camping, which can also result in wild animals feeding on human food.

People who walk 5 abreast in malls and sidewalks and such. Is this a parade route or something? Get out of my way!

When there is no one in the back of the bus and everyone stands and crowds at the front. Is the bus driver telling cool stories or something?!

For me it is the same for people on multiple-lane roads who just line up side by side and maintain a constant speed, especially when it is just a two-lane road with signs saying that the left lane is for passing only.

I also hate people who cruise along in my blind spot, especially when I start varying my speed to get them out of my blind spot and they match the speed change.

I hate when people block the intersection at a stop light. I especially hate it when I stop, so I don't block the intersection, and then people honk at me for not blocking the intersection.

When I walk by the local welfare office and see people in line smoking. Or worse, they ask me for a smoke. Just thinking about it gets me all riled up!
