I wonder if people even realize they are doing this and do they even notice when someone steps back away from them because they're too close? eyebrow:

It has been my experience that folks personal space may be cultural or a power play. I had a boss that stood on the end of my nose. I could smell her lunch. I believe that for her it was cultural but just to cover myself in case it was about power I never backed up.

Don't overcook the bacon! Put mayo on either the lettuce leaf or tomato slices NEVER on the toast, and ALWAYS cut on the diagonal ...

OK this really gets me. The 8 episode tv series season. I think that's a really shitty way to treat your loyal fans who pay your salary by watching your show. That one gets me lately. Don't give me a little 8 episode teaser then make me wait a fucking year for more.

People sneaking into the "10 items or less checkout lanes" when it's clear they have WAY MORE

People who count the number of items in my cart. A dozen eggs is not 12 items.

Buddy, go buy a BLT. That is cheaper than flying to Texas for me to make you one. You know I that would make you a BLT in a New York minute.

I agree Jedi. I remember when Mad Men would make you wait and wait and wait until they issued a new season!

Sidebar: Sundance new season of Split only gave us 6 episode!

Or better even yet is the lack of policing this infraction!

There is usually always a sign stating what the fine is for this, but I have NEVER seen or heard of someone receiving a ticket!

Plastic beverage bottles! They are getting filmier and filmier.

Even tho water is the only beverage I'll drink out of a plastic bottle, it's irritating when it comes close to overflowing when squeezed too hard or tipping over when you set it down!

I hate this too! My spouse is disabled and I ONLY use the handicapped tag FOR HER. If she’s not with me in the car I will not park in a handicap spot! But people do it all the time and it’s soooo annoying.

I think I may have posted this before

but one of my biggest pet peeve’s is when people don’t stop at the crosswalk when I have my spouse in her wheelchair. They just blow on by, especially the tourists down at the beach in the summertime!
