Do You Have Any Pet Peeves or Have you Had Any In The Past?

This Is Exactly How I Pictured You Over The Last 7 Years Irm.....But Was Too Afraid To Say It.......



Cheers Glen.

 

They should do away with the express lanes for that reason. It's a great idea, but just like anything else, people find a way to take advantage of it.

 

People that break shit on purpose

 

I know.

I'm a bitch and a **** and an asshole and probably many other names. But I don't think I'm cruel intention @ heart, and I just call it like I see it.

 

oh yes

And people eating with a knife and fork with the knife facing them


On the flip side, how are chopsticks easier than a fork to eat noodles? "They" all make atrocious slurping sounds when eating noodles with chopsticks

 

Chopsticks are for try hards.
And for people who juuuuust looooove anything foreign.
Which can also be somewhat pretentious and trying too hard.

 

I use chopsticks when that's all that's at the table. They're easy to use. Like two mini pool cues. In the same way I smile at foreigners in their dirndl, I also like to show other cultures that I'm not ignorant of how they do things so I have learned the chopsticks because that's what you're given at the table.

Which I admire the Chinese and Asian culture because right now in 2017 they've seen the fork and they've said no thanks, we're good with the chopsticks.

I always feel that people who tease chopsticks just aren't functional enough to make them work. One of the benefits is you don't fill your gob up with food continuously and it allows for better portion control.

 

Chipsticks are way better than a fork for sushi. Try to stab a sushi roll with a fork and the whole thing falls apart

 

People who are rude to customer service employees. You yell and blame them for policies that not even in their control. These are usualy the type of people who want their complaining to lead to a discount or punishment. Like "I want this guy fired" OK asshole it's not like he has bills. If they are truly doing a bad job OK maybe but usualy the employee is doing fine.

Pig parkers those who take multiple parking spots for their big or nice cars. I like cars I have one I've put time into I understand you don't want a scratch. But I also know you are begging for trouble when you do that. People look at you and think "why are you special I'm going to key you". Some people love to watch the world burn, they don't like cars but they do like the idea they hurt the guy who is so rude about his.

I hope one day to be as cool as Larry David.

Mine are people that ask "what are your pet peeves?" OR "what are your vices?" OR "what are your favorite colour?" And people that spell color colour.
And people who put the ? Inside the " " ---quotes.

I don't know. Maybe it belongs there but it sure as hell looks fucking stupid.

Google says this is one of those things the brits got right.

 

forum pet peeves:

invisible mode
using "I feel like" instead of "I think" too often

 

I'm not sure of the etiquette but when I was in the mall this evening, someone with a pram barged into the line we were taking in the fabric store and like she didn't even slow down and ran into my miss. And I was just like.. Does a pram earn right of way? Because if you're just going to collide with someone, I don't think that's a good look considering there's a child in the pram. So I scoffed.

 

It Is Spelt "Colour" Here In OZ.....Just Did A Google Search, And A Grammar Site Says

Both Are Correct......



Cheers Glen.

 

Color/colour doesn't bother me. Different country = different spelling.

What peeves me is when people say like they lose something or a sports team loses they say "such and such is a looser" like lol, whaaa? How are they looser? And it's amazing how many people spell it this way.

 

Like Glen just pointed out. It is spelt correct. But at what point does it become correct? It had to be spelled one way first. So when did the other way become equally correct. Unless it's correct if you know what is meant. But in that case wouldn't culler be correct?

 

Ahhhhhhhhhhh....... :wall:



Cheers Glen.

 

Packs of sausages. I bought a pack at the weekend, and it enrages me that they come attached to each other and you have to squish the whole lot out of the pack, separate them out and then cut them free of each other. Then you have to try to squish the ones you don't want back into the pack, all because the manufacturers can't be bothered to cut them themselves before they put them in the pack.

 

I love swordfish but it contains the highest levels of mercury found in any of the larger edible fish.

 

LOLz, thats the best first world problem in this thread so far

 

I've got a better one than that. Over here, most French wine bottles still have corks rather than screw-tops. So you have to hunt around the back of the draw for your cork screw, which inevitably fucks it up so you're left with half the cork still in the bottle.
