what?!

when your only online game HAS to update & your old iPad won't update so can't play anymore

People who leave their shopping cart in the parking area instead of putting them in the rack with the other carts. I think to myself, "Why can't people do that one small thing?" And apparently it's a lot of folks, because I see carts all over the place.

Haters of skateboarders.

Buying T. Tissue.

It, in the end, just gets flushed down the toilet.

sneezing with no tissues around.

Raccoons leaving packages on my patio.

The trend to acronymize everthing (AE) because it's apparently too much effort (TME) to type things out properly (TTOP).

TLDR- Use real words.

The fact that my device doesn't capitalize the letter i automatically. So stupid.

When a book just assumes I can read French. No translation in a footnote or appendix. Just there, right in the middle of the English text, a solid block of French.

My pet peeve is people keeping peeves as pets. Life is short. Let it go. Move on. They make lousy pets.

My cell just recently started doing this -- out of the blue. It's like, why? I taught you better than that.

People who chew with their mouth open. I'm sorry, I just can't.

People who ride my tail. I drive the speed limit (it's not a sin). I go to work on a two-lane country road. They ride my tail and then pass me on a hill. I think to myself, "They're going to get us killed, for what?" And then, we meet at the gas station. All that and we get to the same place at the same time. Ugh, it makes me want to kick rocks.

MISSING a disgusting bug with a fly swatter that’s IN MY BEDROOM, what am I drunk, how did I miss!!??? I had a clear shot at it that a 6 year old could have made ugh, it’s now been 20 minutes and I have no clue where it went it just disappeared.

Someone parking on the yellow line in a street that is only 2 gnats wide.

When someone leaves a small bit of food in the pan, not even enough for 1/2 portion, just so they don't have to clean the pan.

^ I'd call that smart thinking.

When people driving can't bother to move their fingers two inches to use their blinker.

But blinkers are such a waste. Who actually uses them? No one I know!


People who dredge up the past that has LONG been forgotten! Get over it!

that's why radio contest heard recently while driving -
answer was "not using blinkers" for what's bugs us most about other people's driving!

mine is "people who pull out forcing one to brake"
they can't wait 2 seconds for me to drive by!
