Exaggerated sense of entitlement--when people presume privileges to be inalienable rights.

Think about that for a moment. It's deep.

Heres some ways to make those call center/survey companies sorry when a computer randomly dials your number. Hehe try these tricks, they might change there mind about calling ever again.

1) Play the what game. Pretend the cell has poor quality signal or the home phone has a bad cord. Keep them on the phone for 10-15 minutes repeating each sentence a few times.(This is cruel if the person talking is just learning English)


2) Ask them for there home number and you will call them back.


3) I heard about this from email. Pretend your a cop and they just called a murder scene. Ask them 19 questions that only your friends and family would know the answers to about yourself. Keep insisting they must know you because they called. The final question is are you there gay lover.

Men who don't have a clue to put a toliet seat down...


we went through the effort of putting it up, with no complaints.....is it really that much trouble to flip it down? takes 1 second.

I agree, Venari. Most men are decent enough to put the set "UP" before making water. It's not so hard for a woman to put it down!

Another pet peeve of mine is when someone hangs the toilet paper backwards with the sheet against the wall and not out where it's more accessible!

* The Toilet Seat* . . : Whining about it . .
I could do cartwheels and handsprings through every room in my entire house . .
..at Midnight . .
..With NO Lights on . .
..and touch _Nothing_ but the Floor . .
And STILL be able to tell if the Toilet Seat was Up or Down . .
Hands are an Ingenious Invention . . !!!
Why are women B l i n d . . with lights ON . . ???
. . . .
***
Toilet paper comes off the roll . . No matter Which way it's Mounted . . !!

People who care about the way the TP is positioned. As long as the paper is there I don't care how it's placed.

I have a certain relative who cares about such anal (pun intended ) stuff and I am looking forward to moving away after graduation so I don't have to deal with it anymore!!

People who don't care about if the paper is backward or not. That's another pet peeve of mine.

Another one is people who go to the movies, arrive in time to find a good seat and decide they just have to walk down your row to get to the other side, and could have just walked around instead of making me move so they could get through. THEN! Doing the same thing during the movie! Instead of just getting up and walking down the walkway next to them, they take the most annoying way out... which is to say... right up the row I'm in and make me move again! What's even worse is I'm forced to either see their fat butts or worse!

I actually have a pet peeve that no one's touched on before!

People who start new threads titled things like "I have a question!" or "My opinion!" Well duh. Of course you have a question or opinion, but giving your thread a title that gives me enough information to decide whether I care to click on it first would be MUCH appreciated.

Toilet seat wars! Can we just stop that please?
up
down
up
down
up
down.....
Who really cares, aren't there more important things to get upset about?
There are people in the world that don't even have a proper toilet.

EDIT: I'm just now reading all the toilet seat comments! Obviously a hot topic...

People who talk on the phone and follow you around while they're doing it.


Phone peeves:
#1 I'm visibly on the phone and someone starts talking to me - like, a bunch of questions, or telling me something very non-urgent and long-winded that could have waited.

#2 You're watching a movie when the phone rings and your friend sits right beside you having a loud conversation because (I suppose), they don't want to miss anything, but you can't hear the soundtrack.

#3 People who can't shut up - in general!

Stop it!!!

Oh yeah! I hate that, too. I've had to actually turn and tell a PARENT to keep their kid from kicking my seat! When they refused, I got up and told management. They were told to leave after the second complaint. I think it was because I told them I wanted a refund AND I wanted to see the film again for free.

Good for you, Scryer

Another of mine is when people can't shop without making a mess - makes them look like morons. And what's with the dropping stuff? They touch something and down it goes

Having to shove umbrella wielding morons from beneath the awnings when it's raining and I am in a hat only yet they try to make ME move to the outside.

Uh... THINK again...

I picture what that umbrella would look like shoved up their ass — and then opened up.

It always makes me smile.

I could go on with this forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Indecisive breakers... Those people who keep hitting their brakes as you drive down the road!!!
2. People who chew with their mouth open!!
3. People who smack their food, YUCK!
4. Litering. Why is it that hard to wait and throw the trash away at a gas station or in your own trash? Instead of throwing it out the window???? I don't get it...
5. People who think they are better than others because of their materialistic items in life.
6. A booming system driving by my house in the middle of the night, what is that? We all want to dance at 3 am to music we don't like? Seriously.
7. Cell phone drivers who are swerving all over the road. Hang up and drive if you can't handle both!!

I could keep going, but I'll shut up before I anger anyone else! Sorry.

When someone replies to a thread and quotes the original post

I think we've all read it - what's the point in quoting it? Duh

Ah, a great little topic for a Friday afternoon....

-people that cannot fathom the use of spell check
-those morons that are riding the subway that stand right infront of the door, then don't step out of the way when you need to exit...causing those who have to exit to turn into line-backers and shove their way out, then they give you dirty looks because you shoved pass them
-Americans who pronounce the word "foyer" as foy-ER instead of foy-YEY...it's a French word, people, get it right!
-people who say slacks instead of pants or trousers...I don't know why it bothers me, but it does
-people that don't give you privacy by standing back at least 5 feet from you when you are using the ATM or standing at a bank teller window
-people that talk trash on public transportation so loudly that you are forced to listen to their every, whiny word....high school girls do this a lot...c'mon ladies, not classy
-unexplained hikes in your cable rate...if service hasn't improved, why am I paying more? (eh?...ROGERS?????)

Now....a drink
