Things that just drive me nuts...

Please help build a comprehensive list by adding your own favorites.

1. The word “irregardless”. Even spell-check hates it.

 

2. The guy who ALWAYS calls me on the phone to tell me he just sent me

    an email (honest).

 

3. Smokers who stand in the doorway of public buildings forcing everyone to pass through

    their cloud of noxious exhaust (yes, I am an ex-smoker).

 

4. Online companies that send emails to let you know that they just received

    your request to be unsubscribed from their email list.

 

5. Grocery checkers who ask “Would you like your milk in a bag?"

    Why yes, now that you mention it, I think I would like you to pour my milk  

    into a bag.

 

6. Entertainers (usually rappers) who sing about sex, drugs, crime, etc.

    while wearing huge gold crosses.

 

7. Four-cylinder Japanese sedans with rear spoilers. Pleeeease…

I love hearing others pet-peeves, no. 6&7 are funny.
I get irritated when Im being tail gaited while Im doing over the speed limit in my minivan with kids...grrrrr...
Reading through my itemized hospital bill, motrin should never cost 8 dollars a pill!!
Banks...they give people loans they knew they couldnt afford, take thier homes away and as these homes sit empty the grass,bushes and trees become overgrown so the local wildlife and mosquitos take over and drive the nieghbors crazy. Yet nobody is allowed to mow it for them because its tresspassing!!
That was fun, thank you :)

This had me chuckling the whole way through. One of mine is that brace thingy the rappers put on their teeth - what IS that??? I thought, Oh great, just another way for them to be even uglier!

#2 and 7 hahahahahahaha

I actually did #2 once..but just cause the guy is a slacker about emails..he should be emailing instead of phoning..actually that's a pet peeves of mine..cause I use the computer alot, and my ex always calls me [many times a day!], and she's too lazy to get on msngr..IDK..it's like, I don't mind cheering her up when she's sad..but she takes none of my advice about being happy..so she calls me instead of being proactive about her life. Know what I mean?

I saw your ker-plunk comment at Emily's page and I figured you'd be fun to Read

Love John
