My pet peeves
Today I feel like sharing something completely different with you. I thought of sharing something cheery and happy (being Monday et al) but you know how it does, does that really make your day any better?! Thought not.
So I thought I’d rather be that old bag that shares my pet peeves with you, the things I seriously cannot deal with, and that are some-what accentuated on a Monday.
- Sniffing/persistent coughing and snorting
- Bone idle people
- Un-kept feet
- Bubble gum chewers
- Thin, long hair (thin hair should be short)
- People reading over my shoulder
- Bad table manners
- Slow walkers
Please share yours with me – I find this stuff funny…
Drivers who have no idea how to merge
Slow walkers. GAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
People reading over my shoulders.
People saying "really?" Eg. Me: My dog just died. Idiotic person: Really? Me: No, dimwit. I just say this stuff to get attention.
Bad grammar/spelling.
When I stand back at a door to let someone through [usually because they got there first, or they are older than I am] and then THEY stand back and tell ME to go through. Like, WHY?!?! I mean, imagine if I, in turn, ALSO do this! Are we going to stand here all day, because I was polite and they were retarded?!
Ah, that felt good =)
Someone asking for a sip of my drink! shan x
slow drivers in the FAST lane – pull over!!!
lack of attention to personal space – a BIG problem in queues at government departments…
loud music in beautiful public spaces – you're out in nature to enjoy the sounds of nature too… and generally your taste in music is not mine
oh i could go on but i won't bore you with more of my pet peeves 😉
People that open and eat food items in the supermarkets without paying for them first.
Unpainted toenails. Or toenails in general.
People with bad manners and 'crude' people.
I love this post, a definite winning post for a Monday morning.. think I may do one of my own! Will post the link here when I do.

Laughing so much at all your pet peeves, I may just do this every Monday. Miserable that this makes me smile hahaha
The post just made my day!! Never stop the bluntness… So refreshing!!
i'm with you on all of yours, as well as…
– drivers who don't indicate.
– people who have really loud conversations on their phone in public.
– people who read magazines in coffee shops attached to book shops and part of their meal in the magazine.
-automated answer systems that never seem to give you the option to speak to a real human person.
I mentioned you in my blog and herewith my Pet Peeve post. Definitely Monday-appropriate and a weekly rant may be just what we all need 🙂

Yoh this has made my Monday so much better! Throwing in a rant to cheer me up Further
Dry cracked feet (makes me want to physical hurt the owner)
Constant Clearing of the throat
When restaurants use comic sans on their menus
People talking during movies
Vulgarity on twitter and Facebook (get some class please)
Attention seeking Facebook updates (so-and-so needs a hug *sob* 🙁 AAARRRRGGGHHHH GET A LIFE)
Yoh that felt good, thanks tor
Hahahahaha SOOO agree with cracked feet and Facebook updates and @Jacci – people who have really loud phone convo's) So glad to see so many intolerant ladies haha 🙂 definitely doing this every Monday – I already have some more to add to my list (this could get bad)
– people who drive fast cars but insist on driving 40km/h
– non punctual people
– people who can't get your and you're correct – ARG!
– blackberry users bbming all the time
– bad spelling
– people who hang around at your house forever and don't catch the hint that it's time to go home
– chipped nail varnish
wowee that feels good!
OMG Bianca you have reminded me of one of my biggest peeves – that BBM one. People who send an xxx then x and then smiley faces when you have had enough of speaking to them. Some people are just plain annoying on BBM!
people who bang their doors closed.. everyday.
bad spelling errors
crackberry users who try to convince everyone else to become one
people who can not park a hatchback ( seriously?)
pensioners with bad eyesight, are hard of hearing and have driving licences
I'm glad someone else said it – pensioners full stop. They should only be allowed out the house out of rush hour times. I am so intolerant!
People who invite you on BBM and NEVER chat to you. Why bother?!
People who update their BBM status all the time, when someone pings me on a Blackberry, people who don't understand a four way stop, bad feet creep me out as well.
Small handbags
Poeple who dress in uniform colour
Kitten heels
People who pick at their face/noses
When people help themselves without asking
Selfishness
Pensioners 100%
Loud children
When I dont feel like talking and a rash won't stop telling me their lame stary I'm really not interested in
Car guards
That my best friend lives in cape town 🙁

Small handbags hahahaha!! and kitten heels! That is spot on!
