Pet Peeves...

[SPKrazy]

One that I HATE is when someone hangs up on me. Especially when there is no argument going on, no clue as to WHY they did it, just hung up.

On the other hand, what the fuck, I've got chocolate, and I will sleep tonight knowing that whatever the problem is, it isn't fucking my problem.

What are pet peeves you have?

[graywarrior]

1. People who brag about having chocolate

[SPKrazy]

3. Gray1

I've got fucking chocolate, dark, milk, chocolate chocolate chocolate

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[graywarrior]

8. Chocolate fucks?

[SPKrazy]

21. how do you think you get baby chocolates?

:P

of course it fucks

[graywarrior]

34. Noooooo, chocolate kisses!

[SPKrazy]

37. They are foreplay in the choco world

trust me on that one :P

[unpossibles]

12. I've had dark, milk, and white chocolates

but never "fucking chocolate" - can I buy that at my local Adult Entertainment boutique?

[SPKrazy]

23. You can find fucking chocolate anywhere that chocolate is sold

it's all fucking all the time

[unpossibles]

25. I guess you have a point

any chocolate can be fucking chocolate - it is easy to melt after all.

[SPKrazy]

36. and once it melts

it becomes fucked chocolate I guess? :shrug:

[mopinko]

14. i think you have found the only way that could chocolate be better.

how ya doin' spk?

[SPKrazy]

24. when its fucking

it is tastier

I'm okay

other than having a pet peeve to be annoyed about

:hi:

[mopinko]

48. i just can't think of one right now. not that i don't have one.

too happy at the moment.

ok, a serious one- high school should start at like, noon. biology. simple biology. nah, protestant work ethic is more important.
i know i got a petty one in there, but i am tired.

[SPKrazy]

89. Very cool!

congrats

:hug:

[hobbit709]

5. And aren't willing to share.

[graywarrior]

7. They should be spanked

[Chan790]

17. I have chocolate. :P

[graywarrior]

22. Bend over, you little nasty.

:spank:

[SPKrazy]

29. we'll just duct tape you and take your choco

[Chan790]

50. Good luck with that.

Actually that sounds like fun.

[SPKrazy]

56. I knew it would mr less than 12%

:P

:rofl:

[SPKrazy]

27. and duct taped

:P

[SPKrazy]

26. I will share my fucking chocolate

with anyfuckingbody I want to

:P

[UrbScotty]

2. Being interrupted in conversation

Also, people telling me things that are quite obvious.

[SPKrazy]

4. That's very annoying you know

and quit interrupting me, k?

[reyd reid reed]

6. I've got a whole list.

Waaaaaaay too many to list here. I guess I'm just persnickety.

:shrug:

[graywarrior]

11. People who say hi to other people in the middle of threads.

Hi reyd reid reed!
:hi:

[reyd reid reed]

30. Now that's one that I don't have a problem with

maybe I'm not so persnickety, after all.

:hi:

[graywarrior]

32. Hey, neither do I!!!

I was lying.

[SPKrazy]

35. yeah you are

persnickety that is :P


:hi:

:hug: how are ya???

[Chan790]

9. People who assert authority in work situations and yet don't lend a hand...

that's one of my co-workers. I so want to get her fired but my manager says she needs to be caught in the act of slacking and abusing her authority. Well...no shit that she's not going to do that while you're in the building, Ms. Manager.

[SPKrazy]

66. Yeah, I hate people who are piglets like that

or who think their shit don't stink

it does

and not lending a hand is just mean, not cool

[grannylib]

10. Common spelling/grammar errors...its vs it's; their/they're/there;

irregardless; "for all intensive purposes"; "supposably" (drives me NUTS!!!!); using apostrophes to denote plurals or quotations to "emphasize" something (as in "Thank you" for shopping with us or "DO NOT" PARK HERE); people who actually WRITE 'should of' and 'could of'...

Little things, but they annoy the hell outta me.

[SPKrazy]

68. Irregardless is a good one

or the wrong spelling of a word, or even the wrong tense of a word in a sentence.


Blame it on an English teaching mother and a journalism professor father.

[grannylib]

74. And I'm never more peeved than when I catch MYSELF

doing it *lol*
Not the "irregardless" one, but I have been known to misspell!
I do hate it that the "i" and the "u" are so close together on the keyboard; I wish I had a nickel for every time I've e-mailed my team at work, reminding them to shit down their PCs before they punch out :rofl:

[SPKrazy]

96. I get t and w backwards on one word

snow

about half the time I will type snot.

Of course spell check isn't going to catch it, and grammar isn't either. I just read my stuff and know that is a common error. I don't write about snow or snot much so that's a good thing :P

[unpossibles]

13. people who drive slowly until you try to pass them, then speed up

also I get annoyed at people who consistently hold phone/text conversations while they are hanging out with you.

[SPKrazy]

61. I'm sorry, what did you say?

I was texting and didn't catch it

I get annoyed at people who talk on the phone to me and their attention is elsewhere too.

[unpossibles]

97. yeah, that too. I have a couple of lines I tend to use in those situations

when being ignored, I throw in "....and then I found $5!" and it always grabs them back. My other one involves seeing a unicorn, and only gets thrown out when I know they won't even notice.

Even better is when I see a unicorn with $5 in it's hoof.

[greenbriar]

15. People who knock on a LOCKED bathroom door

I will be finished when I am finished. Knocking won't make things go any faster

[SPKrazy]

60. Knock Knock!

who's there?

ITS ME OPEN UP!!!!! :D

no, I won't, and I will just take longer now thank you :rofl:

[bigwillq]

16. Life's too short for pet peeves

Sure, there are some things that piss me off but I can't say anything specific that pisses me off every single time. I guess the closest is slow drivers..I drive a lot sometimes for work and I have seen it all on the road. Sometimes slow drivers are worse than fast ones, ok, now I am turning this into a peeve. :P ;) :)

[SPKrazy]

59. I guess if it is someone that I am glad that hung up

then, no biggie

:shrug:

[fizzgig]

18. people who leave the cupboard doors open

you opened the fucking things, why can't you close them? do you leave the fridge door open when you're done? do you leave the front door open? how about the car door? no? then why can't you close the goddamn cupboard?

gwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrr :nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke::nuke:



































oh....

































:hi: spk. how are you tonight, my friend?

:hug:

:P

[reyd reid reed]

31. That's simple

(I've often wondered the same thing myself, while I reached for either the Advil or an ice pack)...so that they can go to their rooms and quietly laugh at the #%^&! words that come out of your mouth when you smack your head on aforementioned open cabinet door.

x(

[SPKrazy]

58. dang, it is just a bad habit to leave them open

I try better really :P



:hi:

:hug:


oh, I'm just peachy Kagehime

you?

[fizzgig]

62. i was starting to wonder if you had me on ignore

:P

you're peachy? well, i'm grape :P (blame my father, it's a terrible joke and he loves it :rofl:)

[SPKrazy]

64. I took you off ignore at 10:00 MDT

:shrug:


:rofl: :rofl:

I'm okay with sarcasm would be another way to put it

:hi:

I'll live though

:hug:

you?

[fizzgig]

78. i'm alive

things are things here, yanno?

[SPKrazy]

83. I know how things can be things

yanno

indeed i do yanno?

no tornadoes gotcha I'm glad for that :hug:


:hi:

coming to Colorado in July, on or after the 12th

for a week

;)

[fizzgig]

87. check your pm

and nope, no tornadoes...we were in denver for the day and stayed there until things were calmed down

:hug:

edit to add the message...doh

[SPKrazy]

93. doh...

glad things were okay for you

pm checked, read, and replied to

:hug:

[NJCher]

19. People who stand in doorways

People who go into the grocery store and stand in the entrance looking at the circular.

People who converse in the middle of the aisle, oblivious to people trying to get through.



Cher

[OhioChick]

28. Or those that

are reading ingredients on some food product while their cart is in the middle of the aisle unattended. :eyes:

[ScreamingMeemie]

39. Or those that don't follow "traffic" rules and insist on "driving" their

carts on the left side of the aisle, for them...and the right side for you...or won't move from the pork chops when I am trying to look at them too...or...or... can you tell how much I cannot stand the grocery store?

[SPKrazy]

44. just run them over

ram their cart and make weird noises, they move away quickly then :P

:rofl:

[OhioChick]

47. Speaking of weird noises...

A few weeks back I was going down the pop/chip isle and saw some guy taking a swig out of one of the 2 liters of Pepsi while making grunting noises....

[SPKrazy]

53. that is weird

:yoiks:

time to move on

note to self: no 2 liter bottles of Pepsi from store

at least check the seal carefully :puke:

[OhioChick]

46. I hate going to the grocery store....

it's like a form of punishment. Ever while standing in line at the check-out get someone riding your heels and bumping their cart into you? :mad:

[SPKrazy]

54. I don't mind it so much anymore

I don't like it if its really busy

but, it doesn't bother me much anymore, once upon a time I had a phobia bout it

[SPKrazy]

43. can you imagine being so oblivious to others?

what must their lives be like?

:shrug:

I know what you mean though

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. Would it kill people to smile back when I smile at them in the store/bank/other public place?

We have become a people entrenched in rudeness. I have started calling them on it, much to the embarassment of my kids. I was in a restaurant the other day with my dad and BabyG and said, loud enough for them to hear, "Why do those women glare at every single person who comes in here?" In some small way, I hope it makes people think...but I doubt it. :hi:

[SPKrazy]

40. smile back????

what's that :P

:D

:hi:

why do they glare? Is it because they are better than everyone, or because they feel so horribly about themselves that they feel the need to glare? My guess is the latter :hi: :hug:

[Fox Mulder]

33. What aren't my pet peeves?

That'd be a shorter list.

[SPKrazy]

42. persnickety eh?

you and reid reed reyd

[My Good Babushka]

38. Dressed up lawn geese

that have bigger wardrobes than I do... I hate them sooo much.

[SPKrazy]

41. don't like lawn geese nekkid though

too hard to tell the difference between them and real geese

the clothes give them away at least :P

[Ptah]

45. pevs.

[SPKrazy]

51. you be in trouble hanging out here then

:rofl: :rofl:

[Ptah]

55. No, ignore and hide thread are very helpful.

[SPKrazy]

65. Do you ever find that there are only a few threads left?

If they are all Pev threads like they can be at times here :shrug:


:hi:

[Ptah]

80. No, there is always intelligent discussion here.

It can be a chore to separate the wheat from the chaff,
but it is still worth the effort.

[SPKrazy]

82. Of course my threads are always valuable and intelligent discussions of something

even if I am a pev, right?

:D

[Ptah]

84. I like you

when you're not doing the pev thang.

[SPKrazy]

91. Ahhh, well honestly

sometimes I don't like myself when I'm doing the Pev thing so much either.

I mean, its' easy to get carried away in it, but as far as substance, not much.

:hi:

[SallyMander]

49. I only have pet dogs

Oh, and a lizard. And a salamander. :D

No but really, when certain people (ahem) use all the TP and do not replace the roll!!! Then maybe you don't notice until after you've peed, and then you are STUCK! :grr:

[SPKrazy]

52. Yeah, I don't like that either

especially if there is none in the bathroom and one has to yell for help, TP please, or worse, go on a trip to find it in the house...

and its not your house even worse..

:hi:

[TK421]

57. My problems? People PERIOD are my problems...without them, I wouldn't

be as stressed as I am now....especially in my current position. Every day I go into work and there is someone who has a certain "problem" I should fix.....well, FUCK THEM!!!!!!! I'm sick of dealing with other people's problems! Deal with them yourself, I say!!!!!!!!

God...I'm just so TIRED of it all

[SPKrazy]

63. I make my living because people have problems

if they didn't

I wouldn't have a job :P


:hi:

how's it going man?

[TK421]

77. Not so good right now, man...not so good

too much to talk about at this moment, but let's just say that it is NOT good as far as people go

[SPKrazy]

86. I can't stand a lot of people

for the very reason that they are assholes

the patients I work with are often much easier to work with than the staff, or the families of the patients, or other people in life, much easier I tell ya :P

[TK421]

92. I really don't know how you do it, and I'm dealing with assholes on the customer

service level....I don't know if you know what that's like, but my theatre is going through a lot of changes recently, and all of them are NOT good. There is a lot of detail to go into at this moment, but they are undergoing an " artistic change approach " whatever the fuck that means.....

[SPKrazy]

95. "artistic change approach"

sounds like a new way to say bend over and take it!

sorry you are there

I don't know if I could deal with the customer service level, although I do that as well. When a complain comes I have to address it, and show some kind of action plan to deal with it. Some complaints are boneheaded as hell, but the business model has come to medicine and psychiatry too, and instead of patients, we have customers. Good and bad sides to that model.

[mcctatas]

67. Pen clickers and knuckle crackers...

I was in a really tough chem class and the guy sitting in front of me was doing both, I don't know what came over me, but I leaned up and whispered "If you keep it up, I'm gonna break your knucles AND stick your pen up your ass"...

He stopped...

We get along just fine now;)

[SPKrazy]

70. WOW!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

mcctatas don't mess around! :spray:

[mwdem]

69. Having dinner ready by 7 pm at the latest, and he shows up

...oh by nine or ten, and I can't get in touch because he's on a conference call...whatever.

[SPKrazy]

71. Hope it is cold and he heats it up himself

I can imagine

[mwdem]

72. That is what it is.

Cold.

[SPKrazy]

73. GOOD!

cold food

for a cold act

:thumbsup:

[mwdem]

75. I'm tired of being bothered.

I consider myself a pretty good cook, and if Mr. passive-aggressive doesn't like it enough to show up, I just don't care anymore.

[SPKrazy]

76. Sounds like an idiot

hate passive aggressive people

funny, i work with plenty of them too.


married to one for almost 20 years


I liken them to people who "short sheet" the bed. Which I never thought was funny. The bed looks normal but you can't get in it.

Sorry you are in that predicament.

:hug:

[mwdem]

79. Thanks, SPK

It's been ove 35 for me, and I've been through too much to quit, or maybe I should? The "short sheet" is exactly what I'm talking about.

[SPKrazy]

81. Can't tell ya what to do

just know that that, along with some other things like not really feeling like I mattered etc. were the reasons I left.

[mwdem]

85. Gotcha. And you did the right thing.

Passive-aggressive, and narcissistic personality are truly awful. And my daughter is pregnant with out first grandchild, which is somehow threatening? I think not!

[SPKrazy]

88. Oh my, well

:toast:

here's to first grandchild and hopes that somehow the threat dissipates, and a new era of change descends upon him.

[mwdem]

90. Thanks!

And I will be a young grandmother! I was married at 21, so I'm not so much an old fart! But granddad is not in the limelight now, so who knows?:shrug:

[SPKrazy]

94. Wow, you will be a young grandmother!

my age in fact generally. I better not be a grandparent for several years :P

Well, granddad will either deal with the life stage issue, or fall back into stagnation and have issues that are added to the package of passive aggressiveness, and narcissism. The newly bruised narcissist trying to make life return to the place where he was the limelight.

congrats though! that will be neat for you, and hopefully for him.

and of course for your daughter as well.
