So I'm bored on a Friday night thinking about my pet peeves and thought I would share... Because I'm bored. Lol 1) people who keep stepping on their brakes down Stuart Mesa Rd. 2) people who go 70 up Stuart Mesa Rd. 3) people who don't say thank you when you open a door for them. 4) people who stand really close behind you in line. 5) people who leave their carts in the middle of the isle at the grocery store. 6) people who let their young kids play alone outside. 7) people who completely run the yield sign that's right off base, right before the I-5 South entrance. 8) spiders on the ceiling. It puts me in an awkward situation. 9) when people state the obvious. Example: Cashier at the commissary rudely told me, "Get a new ID card. This expires on the 12th". Ummm, it's my ID I knew that already. M'kay thanks. 10) people who drive under the speed limit in the left lane.
OMG!!! this is so funny. gotta say that several of yours are mine as well. i cant stand it when i offer someone behind me the open door. im typically pretty rude to the person when that happens. so in addition to that one.. 1. people who come late for a popular movie and ask me to move seats so that they can sit together. i usually say no- that im waiting for someone to arrive. 2. store clerks who carry on their personal conversations when i am standing at the register waiting to pay. 3. talking during the national anthem or not removing their hats while its being played before sporting events. my 10 month old behaves better than some adults! 4. valentimes instead of valentines 5. smokers who drive with their window down.
im sure there are many more.. im just low on brain cells at the moment!
1. When the person in line ahead of me is talking on their cell phone, preventing the cashier from telling them how much to pay, thus holding up the line. 2. When someone doesn't kept their dog on a leash 3. When someone doesn't pick up their dog's poop 4. When the neighbors just leave their dogs outside barking all day. (As soon as I hear mine start to bark I bring them in!) 5. When someone drives under the speed limit 6. Solicitors who come to my door, or call. Especially when I'm busy doing something... 7. Parents who let their kids just run wild in public places. 8. Parents who bring a baby to a movie theater and DOESN'T take it out of the theater when it starts to cry. It's fine if you bring your baby, as long as you take it out of the theater as soon as it starts to cry. Although, really, you should have left it at home with a sitter! 9. When I make plans with someone, then they don't show, and "forget" to call to let you know they weren't coming.
I'm sure there are many more, but I figure that's good enough for now
1. I HATE when people don't wash their hands before they eat. 2. Kids with out manners, especially when a parent is sitting next to them. 3. When people touch windows. I hate looking at finger marks! 4. When pregnant woman smoke! 5. People who constantly complain, especially when most of what they are complaining about is crap (I'm broke...yet I just bought a brand new coach purse). 6. Parent's who give their kids sweets to keep them being good in public. This one really bugs me, it's our job to teach these kids not only good eating habits BUT good behavior as well. 7. Skinny women who complain about being fat. I have a neighbor who walks around in sports bras all the time but every time the lady across from her (a heavy set woman) comes around the skinny broad starts winning about being fat and showing off her body. I feel bad for the heavier woman because she's really trying to drop the weight and is just now gaining the confidence to feel good about herself and then lady comes around making her insecure again.
;) my daughter has a speech problem and it sounds like she says "ballerina time" This was her first time getting chocolate covered strawberries and she really liked them. For days after that she walked around saying "I love ballerina time, can we do it again?"
1. Turning left onto Stuart Mesa Rd is NOT a race! 2. Whiney people who find anything to complain about 3. People who let their dogs out without a leash. 4. Wives who think they know everything 5. Drivers who drive under speed limit 6. Rude people 7. People who do not pick up after their dogs 8. Dirty Windows/glass 9. When people don't punish their kids once they do something wrong (ex. Bite, hit other kids, act out in public) 10. When my gas light comes on (although with gas going down right now, its not so bad) 11. Construction that is throughout base 12. When people tell me to work on words with my son (speech problem) I'm totally aware and we practice each day along with therapy. 13. People who have a staring problem 14. Running late
mybabymomma- #2 and #4 burn my soul! I can't stand when adults mispronounce common words! I have a FB friend who always says "farther" and she means "father". She types it that way too. How do you not know how to spell/pronounce that?! BlueBettas-I would never dare bring my kids to the movies. I just started taking my son and he's 5. I would never bring my 2 year old or newborn. It would be too stressful! Barbie- I'm so happy that I've never seen a pregnant woman smoke. I would lose my sh*t. Who does that?
I have a problem with people who look down on others. And those who get annoyed by how someone talks - people who are from other countries or other parts of the US talk differently get over it.
bfpwanted12- #1, I'm guilty! LMAO Let me explain though. Ok, if I'm in the far left lane on Vandegrift to turn left on Stuart Mesa with no other cars behind me and a car pulls up in the lane next to me, I'm going to make sure that they don't over take me to get in front. Why? Because another one of my pet peeves is when people speed up to go past you only to go slower than you! If I let the car in the next lane get in front there's a pretty good chance that they will go 35 all the way up Stuart Mesa Rd. LMAO
Lol too funny!!! I can understand that for sure. I kinda meant that in a way of...say I'm in the left lane up front and the car speeds up where it merges and rides along the side of you in one lane just to be first. So that person therefore thinks its a race and puts my sons life in danger by riding on the side of me, now obviously I slow down but still it has happend more than once. your reasoning makes sense as long as your not going 70 just to be first Haha
Hahahaaaa! I know what you mean. I hate that too. People will damn near side swipe you in the right lane just to get in front! I'm always running around near Wire Mtn and the MCX store so I know exactly when the light is going to turn green. I make sure I have a head start in case some jerk wants to race. I HATE that turn!
Barbie- I'm so happy that I've never seen a pregnant woman smoke. I would lose my sh*t. Who does that?
Apparently a lot of women do! It's so hard to keep my mouth shut! I get that not every pregnancy is planned and it takes a few days to quit but come on...I feel bad for the kids! What bothers me worst is those same smokers act shock with their child has a medical issue caused from smoke.
1. Those asinine stickers you'll occasionally see on a Marine wife's car about how their job is the hardest in the Corps. I call complete bullcrap on this. Being shot at is far harder than stressing. I won't discredit that it is hard, but to be blunt, seeing your friends blown to bits is harder, I assure you.
2. People who don't clean up after their pets. 3. Tailgaters. 4. People who do not understand the need for disciplining children and then wondering why their children wind up in jail. 5. Wives thinking that their husband's rank makes them better as rank gets higher. 6. Paranoid wives who think every woman is after their man. Sorry, sweetcheeks, you're delusional and really insecure. 7. People who can't laugh at themselves. 8. Immaturity in a 40 year old. 9. Waiting in line whilst having an uber slow cashier. 10. Stains on a carpet or dirt caked on walls. Clean people, clean. It won't kill you, I promise. 11. People who refuse to leash their dogs and then praise bad behavior.
There was a ball car wash in Fallbrook and a pregnant women standing by the Marines holding the signs was smoking! I drove by and almost hit the freaken guy looking. Are you kidding me???
Ok, here's a good one.... My friend had her neighbor steal some of her stuff and is currently trying to sell it at a yard sale! It pisses me off that it happened to her, I would be livid if it happened to me! Granted I did have my neighbor steal my brand new recycling bin.
1. Uncooth Military doctors 2. Rude Military doctors 3. Dog hair... everywhere. (We have 3 dogs) 4. Nose zits that hurt and make you sneeze 5. When people with kids (on FB) post only pix and talk only about their kids... 6. (This one isn't a pet peeve, really just jealousy) Women 21 years or younger with 1 or more kids. 7. That you can't do a U turn on Vandagrift by the commissary if you find you're going the wrong way. 8. Always having to take a pregnancy test EVERY time I go to the doctor... (You'd think that'd be the ONE benefit I'd get from not being able to concieve...) 9. Women that breast feed in public, and don't cover up their breast while doing it. I'm pro breast feeding in public but anti chesticle flashing that goes with it. lol 10. people who complaint about needing to lose weight, then continue to do nothing to change it. 11. People in general. lol
1. Most people in general are idiots. 2. I HATE when someone comes into my place of work and complains about back pain or any other chronic pain that has been going on for longer than six months...This is an EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT. We treat acute illnesses and emergent situations. I always ask them if they contacted their primary doctor first and most of the time they say "no". We are NOT your primary source of care. It is a waste of resources and money. 3. The people asking for donations outside of the wal-mart stores stating they are helping homeless vets. I doubt it. 4. California in general.
1. speeders 2. broken headlights/taillights/brakelights 3. stop sign/redlight runners 4. cigarettes out windows (butts and ashing = ticket) 5. out of date insurance cards 6. whiners at the gates 7. cell phone use without hands free device 8. tinted windows 9. E-9 wives that beg me to not cite them 10. failure to register (state and base [for now])
1. People who talk with food in their mouth and try to use their hand to cove their mouth. If you are covering yor mouth you know it's rude 2. Idiots that criticize breast feeding, why should a baby have to eat with a blanket on their face because other idiots think breasts are sex symbols 3. People who don't clean up after their dogs outside...take a baggy 4. People who look at my brothers and I and assume we are not full siblings because our skin colors are different 5. People who drive with loud music and kids in the back seat
1. People who leave their Christmas lights up year round. 2. People who wait until their transaction is completely done before looking for their credit card or cash. Really? Did you think today was "everything is free day" at Target? 3. People who chew with their mouths open or pop/snap their gum. 4. People who say "supposubly" instead of supposedly. 5. People who say "punkin" instead of pumpkin. It might be cute when a three year old says it, but when you're 30, say it correctly. 6. Religious zealots. Actually, any kind of zealot. 7. People who abuse entitlement programs. 8. People who post their kid's bowel habits on Facebook.
2. Idiots that criticize breast feeding, why should a baby have to eat with a blanket on their face because other idiots think breasts are sex symbols X100
1) People who ask a breastfeeding mother to take it to the restroom.
I'm sorry I will not take my child into a restroom so they can eat, until said person asking takes their dinner plate into the same restroom and eats their food in the restroom.
2) Traffic 3) People who think it is ok to party everyday of the week.
