Do you have something that just bugs you to death everytime you come across it? And it is probably one of those things you can't do anything about? Maybe sharing those things here will at least get them"off our chest" for a while! lol

Mine is: When I find something online I want to print and I hit the print button it will take two pages.... the second page has maybe an inch of wording on it, now why didn't they condense it to fit on one page!~

So what is your pet peave?

Lol, thats a great one catlover,that just happened to me, and the only thing on the 2nd sheet of paper was the copyright info.

One of mine (and this just happened Sat) is people who put up yard sales signs(which is fine) But the never take them down, and also the ones that put up a yard sale sign saying Yard Sale Today and NO date, just the street addy, and YES I have pulled up to a few "non existent yard sales because of that lol, lately I just have been looking in the paper safer that way , lol.

Another one is people who leave shopping carts right in the middle of a parking spot, when the carraige corral is right next to it,lol!

Also when I get a phone call from someone, and they spend half the time talking or yelling at someone in the background(this happens al the time with a friend of mine that babysits her gs, lol) just wait til he takes a nap and then call!!!
I have more lol, will post later Hugs

Okay, we are geting started here so watch out! lol My DH throws his socks into the sock bag and leaves them in the rolled up state they got in while he was taking them off...... so I have to unzip the bag and empty it before I wash them and unroll all the stinky dirty socks! Once I washjed them just like he throws them in there and even hung them on the line in the weird state they were in. First is they didn't get clean, and I had to leave them on the line for two days (because they wouldn't dry correct either) so when he asked why he didin't have clean socks in his laundry to put away I told him they stayed wet! lol Then we went into the whole deal about how they didn't clean either! lol And guess what? For a "while" he did it right, but now its back to the "bad" way!

Lol, I can relate to the socks!!
The women in the yard goods dept in BenFranklin, that insist on using a stapler to attach the price on the material, the other day I went in to get a piece of clear plastic to go over one of my moms tablecloths, and she started to staple the price on the plastic, and I said cant you just tape that on, I cant understand why you all use a stapler in the first place.
Another one is people who block the whole aisle in the store, oblivious to anyone around, no one can move either way cuz they;re in the middle daydreaming or even worse talking on the phone, its so RUDE!
Speaking of phones I hate it when people talk on their phones in a restaurant loud enough so everyone can hear
Also people that let their kids scream, and jump al over the place in a restaurant, no one wants to see or hear that while they are trying to relax and eat!!

Those are all good ones! I have some more to add. When waiters/tresses come up to the table and say "hey guys" folks sounds so much better. My biggest though, is when people blow their noses at the dinner table!!!! I could just rip my hair out!!!! They do this in restaraunts, and at home. YUCK!

That is a good one! Goes right along with walmart advertising USA products only; remember those ads; turn the stuff over in walmarts today and you will see it is made all over the place EXCEPT for USA!

One of my big pet peeves is rude cell phone users. Honestly, I can go through the grocery store and see person after person having long conversations on their phones (or any store for that matter). It happens while standing in line at the bank, in movie theaters before the movie starts and I have followed people for over an hour on the road as they were talking while driving. Yikes! I have a friend who every single time we go out to dinner or a movie will have at least one conversation on her cell phone. I cannot for the life of me figure out what is so important that you have to be talking on your phone while out in public. I don't care to hear your conversations, especially if they are of a personal nature. And then there is texting - people who cannnot stop texting no matter who they are with or what they are doing. It is almost impossible to have a conversation with someone who keeps checking their phone or texting someone. Do any of you see these same things?

When men leave the toilet seat up (boyfriend). Always gets on my nerves, there are two women in the house, we dont stand. We sit and would love to not fall in. Haha.
When someone drinks from a carton or bottle of a beverage in the fridge instead of using a cup, all the while being completely insanitary. I can understand if its practically empty, but brand new and not even more than half gone, it is just disgusting, unless you bought it for yourself.
And when cabinets and fridge doors are left open.
Also when someone makes a mess, leave the kitchen or room, and then never cleans it up or looks at that person who spotted it to take up the responsibility to clean up their mess.

Those are the major ones.
