General Pet Peeves

[wainzoid]

How about the old lady at the checkout trying to pay with the exact change. They shake their purse and dig around, shake it some more and dig around, shake it so more looking for a couple more pennies.

Along those lines, how about people who wait until their order is all rung up to begin looking for their money? Unless you have some super speedy cashier, yeah right, you will have time between getting all you stuff on the belt and getting some money out.

Despicable I say!! Is there no honor??

 

[Kray Gelder]

I've seen it. It's true! Wal Mart, right?

 

[Kray Gelder]

Ouch.

 

[Kray Gelder]

Aye Aye Captain. I stand corrected.

People who say "y'all".

As in, "y'all want cream with that coffee"?

Okay I know I may have gained a few pounds, but there is still only one of me!

Your blood pressure would stand no chance in TX - I have never heard the term used in singular form though.

Wheeew, that's good to know.......my diet has been narrowly averted.

How about the genius's that have to hit my car when they open their car door. I always park way out in the parking lot. Last year I found a huge dent in my car door. Took the car to a body shop for an estimate to repair the damage and the quote was $500! BOZOS!

Or worse, begin looking for their checkbook.

Rodbuster posted about grocery lines where those with 40 things are in the fast line. That reminded me of grade school lunch line where some would "butt" in line. I guess they never grew up and still do it.

We have some local stop lights where the road merges right away after the light. We all know it but still have some that just HAVE TO cut others off. I know it might be bad Karma to wish they would get side swiped but I'm not a Saint yet.

Well..... Aren't you special! Whoah whoah! Just kidding!!! I used to hate that! Hate it even more after finding out what those big old southern women meant.

And another! Big fat people that walk down the middle of the grocery store aisles leaving 6" on either side, and to make matters worse they leave their cart right across the rest of the aisle and if you move it to go by they act like you assaulted their first born. As I've gotten older I've lost a lot of patience, so I just fling their cart aside & shout "EXCUSE YOU!" I've got a real good bring it expression so I'm told so they don't pursue it.

And while I'm on the subject! In my top 5. People that bring their kids to restaurants and let them carry on and scream and totally ignore it!!!! Just because you can tune it out, I can't and shouldn't have to have my quiet night out spoiled. I turned around one time and told this Hispanic kid to shut up, sit down and again shut up in Spanish. The utter look of fear in the kids face made it next to impossible to keep a straight face. Well, you guessed it! Dad gets up walks over and says "wassup?" heard his knee pop, and as he was laying on the floor with my foot on his neck I said "Nothing wassup with you?" Manager walked over asked them to leave, comped my check and apologized. I may be an old fart, but I'm sure as heck not helpless!

<laughing> okay I know this is meant to be serious .. but ya all (you guys, universal you or however its PC to say it) are too funny ! :-)~

We all have pet peeves; but sometimes publicly airing them brings out shall we say brings out the worst in people. I thought this forum was non political and non haters... wowwee come on now and lets play in the sand box nicely, no throwing sand, hitting below the belt etc...

 

[Honest Samuel]

My pet peeve is when my friend, a senior parks his very old dirty car far away from the stores so nobody will hit his junk car. I am also a senior and it is a long walk for me. Make no sense.

 

[Geobound]

LOL.......come on "y'all".

I wasn't talking about the phrase, I was talking about them saying y'all when it's just me.

It's the difference of saying "hey fat ass, you want a pie for dessert" vs "did you leave room for dessert".

Mmmmmm pie. Okay I got to go, be back later.

My pet peeve is when people on here judge and target other people based on their political party. It's ok to have thoughts people and think stuff in your head, but you come off sounding like a when your start saying horrible insults to those who don't share your political views. I will never publicly post any of my political views on a forum, due to the fact that there will always be a few people reading it who can't stand when another person doesn't think like them, some people maybe will even think less of you in the future due to just politics. If everyone thought the same the world would be a boring place. I have strong political beliefs, sometimes I bite my tongue reading stuff I strongly disagree with that people have written (media, newspapers, forums, etc.). I try to never judge people based on their beliefs though, as long as politics don't come up who cares, I have some very good friends who are on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. Here on TreasureNet, we all love treasure hunting, that's what should bring us together, not our political or religious beliefs.

 

[coinman123]

Another peeve, people who don't update their yearly finds....... wait!!!


I'm a hypocrite....
