4. People who stand at the stoplight and continue to press the walk button over and over and OVER until the light eventually changes, thinking it'll turn faster JUST for them, maybe they're OCD or something.
3. People muching on nachos in the movie theater or rifling through bags or boxes, thanks for killin' the mood.
2. People who drive aggressively/wasting gas and complain about high gas prices, thanks for increasing the demand!

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 3/10/2008 9:56:25 AM | Those who mistreat or abandon animals ... and those people who assume the responsibility of owning an animal " for just a little while" and then opt out of that obligation because they just can't fit that animal into their lives, the animal becomes an inconvenience or they can't handle the tasks involved in pet ownership ... wtf!!!
Shouldn't they have thought about all of that before they took on the animal?
... and anyone that buys a pet from a pet store or breeder ... please, please ADOPT ... there are far too many animals that will be euthanized because irresponsible owners have turned them over to shelters, many of which are kill - shelters, and people who really want to care for and own a pet don't think about or won't consider adoption from a shelter or rescue.

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 3/10/2008 9:42:08 PM | That is also a big peeve of mine, Jungle Jeff! I agree whole heartedly. I think pet shops should be outlawed. I also don't care much for Zoos but at least they do a service that helps animals. Petshop do nothing but make money off high priced mutts and fufu cats. There are plenty of dogs and cats in the world that need homes. It' s just people who want to show off that buy from these places.
"Look at me... I have money. I can buy an expensive dog while ignoring the ones in the shelters. I'm going to breed this one and make more money! Hoo hoo!"
That sort of person makes me sick.
Sorry... I got over excited there. | |

All hail the English version of English and all Canadians who can understand it. Whatever.
To be honest, one of my biggest forum pet peeves is: a indecipherable post, written in ignorant British slang.
Posts written in ghetto language and/ot text messaging shorthand are a close 2nd. | |

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 3/14/2008 8:11:26 AM | Graffitti --- why does every amateur artist believes everyone wants to see their work. To me Graffitti makes a place look like a getto.
litter --- Cars have ashtrays built in them so why does a smoker driving a car throw cigarette buts out the window. In the pass I knew a motorcycle rider who lost the sight in one of his eyes for the fact of a cigarette but flicked out of a car window. It landed in his eye and burned. He claimed he almost crashed the bike. Also when working I sometimes pick up the beer bottles and garbage lying in the ditch. In less than 10 minutes I can get a garbage bag full. What is it with all the garbage. Bet you half the people I see throwing litter out their car window probably has a spic and clean house.
throwing money on the street -- It is one thing to loose money when you pull your car keys out of your pocket, hole in the pocket etc but to purposely through change down the street for the fact they are just pennies or nickles. Use to know someone who use to empty his pockets of pennies by throwing them down the street or on the street. Every once in awhile he would reach into his pocket and pull out the change. Sort the pennies and then just toss them on the street. Why he never just deposited them into a charity box I will never know.
Grammar police
Have more but those are the ones I am thinking of now. | |

litter --- Cars have ashtrays built in them so why does a smoker driving a car throw cigarette buts out the window I agree with you on that part, problem is "newer" cars no longer have ash trays. Not a standard feature for many years now......Before I quit, I always carried a soda/water bottle to drop my butts in.  | |

I love Canadians. What's that aboot? Canadians don't say that. It's a myth. Scottish people say "aboot". | |

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 3/17/2008 4:13:42 PM | | continuing to have to communicate with someone via email after you've met...clearly shows a lack of interest and I would rather it just be said | |

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 3/19/2008 11:16:55 AM | New one!
Profiles that say
1) "I was married for yada yada years, I screwed up" Translation " I'm not anywhere near being over my ex"
2) "My kids are THE most important........." Translation " I really don't have time for you, nor do I plan to make the time, but I like the thought of it! "

| What are your pet peeves...... Posted: 6/8/2008 11:54:28 PM | I hate when I am talking to a friend at a club, and someone they know comes up and they never introduce me to them. I always try to introduce my friends to the people I talk to, to help break that barrier and open up communication with others. I've noticed in the past many people wouldn't talk to me until they knew I knew such and such, and well I've also done the same.
