I will draw blood with my fork if you do this to me. Believe it.

Cross contamination of food stuffs. Butter in the jam jar, coffee grains in the sugar bowl, bits of coleslaw in the potato salad.....

girl_dee · 02-25-2012, 08:01 PM

the car being left on empty!

I also get a bit huffy if things are moved and I don't know where too!

I agree. I don't like the shower curtain closed. I want a very clear view of what's in there without having to slide that curtain back.

I also HATE, HATE, HATE to walk into a dark house. Please leave ONE light on in the entryway so that I can see what's going on. A completely dark (hopefully) empty house is a big pet peeve of mine.

dixie · 02-26-2012, 09:47 AM

People who are late or who take forever to leave the house when we have plans to go somewhere. Or if there are plans to do something, don't keep sitting on the computer or in front of the tv saying "in a minute, in a minute" for two+ hours until we're either late or missed our plans. If there's a legitimate reason such as you don't feel good or want to change the plans, TELL ME EARLIER. Don't make me sit there ready and waiting.

*Anya* · 02-26-2012, 09:58 AM

Popping gum, blowing bubbles and then popping, chewing gum with mouth open-like a cow; makes me insane!!

I like to chew gum on occasion but never, ever snap or pop or chew with my mouth open, ever!!

People that talk in a movie theater during the movie with a running commentary, also make me want to scream.

People that bring infants to the movies- ditto. I would get a babysitter when my girls were small or I just did not go!

Besides crying babies during a movie- parents that bring small or school-age children to an R-rated movie! I sat next to a mom that kept putting her hands over the child's eyes during the sex scenes! As though the kid could not hear the simulated sex noises and grunts! Oh lord, I was cringing and had to move my seat!

Oh and add cell phones that ring during a movie and the person answers it and has a conversation!

Cell phone discussions anywhere that is a quiet space, where the person loudly carries on any inappropriate conversation that I would rather not hear! Geesh! Do not get that whole thing either. There is no escape when you are waitungvin a line anywhere.

Anal, OCD, why yes I am!! There are just some things I can't tolerate and these are the worst offenders for me.

girl_dee · 02-26-2012, 10:10 AM

what about the nose picker in the car next to you?

HELLO those are windows not walls and we don't wanna see!

People in the library who do not react to their baby starting to cry by getting up and immediately moving in the direction of the bathroom or the exit

ruffryder · 10-25-2012, 12:43 PM

People that litter all over the damn road.

People that do not pick up after themselves. Your momma don't live here and if she did, you're a grown adult. Pick that sh*t up!

People that leave a mess in the microwave and don't clean it up. It's disgusting seeing nasty food spills left behind.

easygoingfemme · 10-25-2012, 01:02 PM

-Leaving the toilet lid up. Not the seat- obviously that- but the lid too please. Close it.
-Cabinets- when you're done in there, close them.
-Drawers, close them all the way.
-Pretty much, close things up when you are done with them please!

When you tell someone something that was hard for you and their response is "That's nothing!" and launch into how something that happened to them was worse. I think I hate it even more when I'm listening to the another person try to talk about what they need to talk about and a third person cuts in with their saga before I can offer validation/sympathy to the person who needs it.

Dance-with-me · 10-25-2012, 01:05 PM

- people using the classroom recycle bin as a trashcan for their chewed gum and snotty tissues

- a school that's decided that it's a good idea to remove trashcans from all classrooms and offices and only put a few out in the hallway, to "encourage recycling"

- frantic hype at even the thought that a hurricane might come somewhere close

Except the pantry! The pantry door should always be ajar b/c it's really quite common the have your hands full when you need to open it with a toe or elbow

My sister recently adopted a 2-year-old who loves to close things and she says she never noticed how inconvenient a fully closed pantry door can be!

Guy · 10-25-2012, 01:05 PM

Being put on hold and then having to listen to that loud annoying music

Or

Calling and then hearing "the wait time is 22 minutes, would you like us to call you when it is your turn"? If so press one to leave your number, now press 2 to confirm your number. ringg ringgg, I answer, please hold for the next available operator

Current pet peeve...

People with dogs who pretend to not see them shit on the pavement and then, when you mention what their dog has done, say, ''Oh, damn, I don't have a bag,'' or, better still, ''Oh, you wouldn't happen to have a bag would you?''

You have a dog? Carry bloody poop bags!

Words

P.S. W/we have two dogs of O/our own, so obviously, I have nothing against dogs. It's the idiots who own some of them that bug me.

easygoingfemme · 10-25-2012, 01:13 PM

Oh dogs! That reminds me of one more peeve that I have.

People who think it's funny, entertaining, or not serious when their dogs chase people who are riding their bikes.

StrongButch · 10-25-2012, 01:18 PM

Agreed, and a pet peeve of mine is please don't put me in the awkward position of asking you, an adult, to pick up after yourself. It's awkward!

Sassy · 02-25-2012, 08:42 PM

When someone waits until they're on the other side of the house to yell a question at you. I hate being "yelled" at. If I'm in another room it'll keep until I get back. Really. It will. Always. Unless we've been invaded by ninjas. If -- and only if -- we've been invaded by ninjas, pirates or vikings is it then OK to screech at me from another room. Seriously... *deep breath*
