I LOVE british/english accents, for people that REALLY have them, and don't fake it.
2kitties, yes high school is an interesting place! :p
It was always my understanding that the girls were just regular girls who were drunk and stupid. But I would not discount the fact that there are people desperate enough to want to be in a staged moment of stupidity.:rolleyes:
Here's some of mine:
1. Girls who go around school saying "sad!" especially when it doesn't even make sense to say it....for example, at school my friend asked me if I could go to the movies with her and some other people on a certain weekend and I told her I couldn't because I was going out of town and she goes "oh, sad!" like it was so terrible that I had to spend time with my family:rolleyes: I was like, "excuse me, but I like seeing my family out of town...it's not 'sad'"
2. My aunt does this annoying thing that my mom and I can't stand...she doesn't have any kids but her sisters (my mom and my other aunt) both have kids (me and my cousin...obviously lol) and she always tells my aunt and my mom how they should raise my cousin and I....it's like, hello....we're their kids, not yours, plus you dont even have kids so how would you know! And she always says to people, "well you should do this" or "you should do that" she's always telling people what they "should" do :rolleyes:
3. The thing where parents can't control their kids...my cousins are like that on my dad's side...my aunt and uncle don't seem to care what they're doing! It's like we constantly have to keep an eye on them when they visit so they don't wreck anything...and they're 10 and 12!:eek:
4. My friend at school does this really annoying thing...whenever she gets an answer right or something, she'll look at me and have this big grin on her face like she's so great for getting it right :rolleyes: for example, this one time in western hemisphere, we were talking about the Inca and the teacher asked how did they get so much land? (or something like that) and my friend raised her hand, he called on her, she said her answer, he said "yup, you're right" and she turns to where im sitting (way across the room) and gives me this big cheesy grin...it's like, ok you got it right, big deal :o
Thanks :DQuote:

Yeah it totally does! I have never exactly heard the Australian/New Zealand accents.......so I have no clue how folks in that part of the world sound. :o I am however, much more fond of the American accent than the British one. :o Maybe its just that I'm used to it, but I think American style of speaking is clearer and easier to understand.......for me at least.Quote:

I LOVE to listen to French Canadians speaking in their own language. Sometimes when I'm near the border I'll turn to a French Canadian station on the radio and just listen to it, even though I don't understand what they're saying.
I like British accents too - and isn't it funny how they barely move their mouths when they talk? My cousin went to England for a month, about a year ago - and she's still speaking with a very strong accent. :rolleyes:
Oh - but this is supposed to be a pet peeves thread! Sorry!
When people say "nuttin" exactly how it's written. Nuttin. I hate that. REALLY HATE IT!
Yummmm. Aussie accents.....Quote:

Teehee I just laugh at those commercials. But I haven't watched late night TV in a long time. In fact I haven't watched any TV in a long time :)Quote:

To go along with your one about your dogs. I hate when people give my dogs a command and expect them to obey it. Yeah they listen great to me, I trained them. Why should they listen to you? *S*
Flakey friends...
If I am of any value, they can take two seconds to call and say they aren't going to show up/are going to be late.
Yay for our Aussie accents :D thanks
more pet peeves
Homophobes *URGhhhhhhh* :(
Breedism of our canine friends (A lady at dog club the other night freaked out because a "pit bull" was running loose, the owner of the dog was racing around frantic as to wear her realy sweet natured Staffy X was, as he had slipped through the car door when putting the dogs back in the car) (and my Aunty saying the other night that Chows are vicious) :(
People who think it is a sin to show a little bit of their skin, be daring people ;) (No offence anyone here)
did i mention children ;)
when my dogs dont obey other peoples commands and the people say "oh i does not matter, dont worry about it" it DOES matter now make thge dog do as it was told (i love my mutts dearly but the must obey all commands given it could save their lives oneday)
thats all for the moment

I drove my big, gas guzzling SUV to work today. I made a phone call without a handsfree device, and I put on lipstick and lipliner at the 2nd and thirds lights. Oh, and I was late to work because I was chatting it up with the Starbucks boy whose Mrs. Robinson I'd like to be- all the while holding up the drive through line.
EEEEEK!!!:eek:
edit: and see how screwed up I am today. I posted this in the wrong stinking thread!
Good Gosh! With the exception of posting this in the wrong thread, you have just confessed my sins!

Seriously, I have ADD. But honestly, I never dreamed I was making anyone angry in the grocery when I was talking quietly on my phone. I don't understand- why does it bother others?
I bill at $150/hour. I DO NOT waste my work time yakking on the phone with my family, since none of them will pay my time. SO, while in the CAR, while WALKING, while WAITING, even IN COURT (if the Judge ain't yakkin), I am on my cell phone. Why does it bother ANYONE anymore than two people talking...'cept you can't hear their end of the conversation? WHY, people, WHY?
And the grocery? Except for the problem of pushing a cart, chugging my beverage of choice, and holding on to my 2 inch cell phone, I do just fine in there. At least I am not driving one of those toy car carts with 8 kids hangin' off the side screamin' "I want, gimme, blah"!

Lol:D
I hate those carts--the people can never maneuver them either!!
I am on my phone a lot too, but it has nothing to do with my job, I just like to talk!!!!
Oh, and at our Wegmann's there is special parking for people with kids--special spots marked that you are only supposed to park in if you have kids with you:rolleyes:
I park there all the time.
I guess it is good that I don't know most of you in person...cause I do have another 'little girl' voice, that I slip into with both sexes. For ME, it is a comfort level thing, the 'softer side' of me..that means my guard is down....I am not sure it is a 'innocent' voice, fact is, I have been told it is NOT innocent sounding at all.Quote:

But it's that stupid whiny little girl "I'm so innocent" voice that drives me nuts!
Than, I also have a less professional vocabulary....I slip into some ghetto type vocabulary....'that's ate up', for example.
You all would hate me in real life! Good thing we have a screen, a web, and some serious distance between us, eh?
WTH? I would park my mini car in there EVERY day! That is soo funny. I think people with kids need to park extra far away, and exercise those little gremlins, to call them down!:DQuote:

People talking on cell phones don't bother me at all, except when they are driving.
I get peeved when I'm in a store at the counter waiting for service and the clerk behind the counter is talking to her BF making plans for that evening. :mad: Hello?? There is a time and place for that.
And ladies and gents who take a bath in their perfume/aftershave and get into the elevator. They leave a trail behind them a mile long.
:D :D :DQuote:

You sound like my brother Catapault! He's ALWAYS on his cell.......in the car, while walking, at the store, in the cashier line, EVERYWHERE! :eek: I'm not much of a phone person though. I call my friends occasionally to see how they're doing, but its just for a short talk.....and I do it from home. It doesn't bother me when people chat on their cells. It has become the norm now. Everyone does it! The only thing I hate is when I go out in the car with my brother, I can never talk to him because he's always talking to his friends on the phone. *sigh* LOL
As for parking SUV's in compact spots.............there are hardly any spots big enough for our poor massive SUV's! We always go driving around parking lots to find a big enough spot........not because we find it not right to park in a compact, but for the protection of our SUV! Tight spots can't be too safe for a big car like that!
And about voices Catapault.........my voice changes when I'm around unfamiliar people. It kind of gets soft/quiet/shy.........and NOT on purpose. I just can't talk normally and boldly with new people like I do with people close to me. :p
Aah, thought of another one..."Expectant mother parking"
I always tell brian to just take the spots...who'se to know I'm not an "expectant mother"? (Except anyone who knows me ^.^)
I hate it when there is a dog hair in my eye or in the back of my throat and I cant get it out!! ugh
I cant stand having my hands dirty, I have to wash them every 5 min.
I cant stand when girls wear clothing that is too small for them, let alone to small for a 2 year old :rolleyes:..
I cant stand when people dont flush the toilet
I hate it when people dont wash their hands after going to the washroom when a sink is available..
I really cant stand it when I step in gum :eek:
I saw a comedian once that mentioned expectant mother stalls. She said who's going to police them? Are they going to chase after you saying "excuse me miss.....if you would just pee on this indicator stick....."Quote:

I work at a grooming shop and that's an every day part of work.
In fact I often pull dog hair out of my eyes while I'm sitting in front of the computer, hours after getting home from work.....
When I'm talking to grown-ups and strangers I put on a little girl "I'm so innocent" voice, because I can't help it. It's like when dogs first meet I think - they very quickly sort out by body language who's dominant and who's submissive. Once it's sorted they can usually be friends. I put on a very submissive, innocent voice (and put my head down) almost subconsciously, because I don't particularly want to be the dominant person, and because if I'm submissive the other person usually accepts you better and doesn't feel any need to hurt you or challenge you.Quote:

People who call late at night.
Some people try to sleep.....
People who are overly loud.
:o :o That's me too. I can usually talk absolutely normally with someone my age or around my age........even if they're new. I'll probably stay quiet with someone new for awhile, but when I start to warm up to the person, I would pretty much talk normally. When I'm around older people though, especially ones that I'm not so used to, I get that quiet/soft voice too. Its SO not on purpose. I can't help it. I just get shy. :oQuote:

Telemarketers!!
TV on too loud.
Too many idiotic driving maneuvers to go into, but particularly people who drive with their blinker on and make an opposite lane change! How dangerous is that??
Here's an example. You are sitting in the waiting room at a doctor's office. You maybe have brought a book to read. You spend the entire wait listening to someone on their cell phone yacking about nothing really and it dominates the room. Yes, people do talk to each other in waiting rooms, but when you are sitting beside someone you tend to talk quietly and sometimes folks even whisper so as to not disturb others. Cell phone talkers must of necessity talk louder. Also, do they really think we are interested in hearing their conversation. :rolleyes: I think in this instance they should have the thoughtfulness to step outside much as they would do to smoke. It's just courtesy. JMHO.Quote:

Also, cell phones ringing in church. Did anyone ever hear of the vibrate option? Unless you are a physician on call and it is an emergency I see no need to have a cell phone turned on in church. If they must they should use vibrate.
Like Kfamr said, people who call late at night.
Parents who smoke while driving with their kids in the car/holding their baby/pushing the stroller.
The word "holla". One of my friends uses that word all the time and I want to kill her for it. :rolleyes:

Tonya,
What does that word mean? Like Hello? Or Holler?
For instance...her voicemail on her cellphone says "What's up boo, I'm not here right now. Leave a message and I'll holla back at choo....holllla! peace." :rolleyes:
I understand your example, BUT, I just don't see how that is any different than someone that talks loudly to the person next to them...I don't talk any louder on my cell phone than I do in person...really, the phones are kind of more sophisticated than that. Maybe the person is just loud? I stand by my opinion, it isn't any different. Imagine a group of girls all chatting, giggling, etc., in the grocery, at the mall, in the waiting room,...just as annoying, IMO, than someone that is talking on a cell phone. I think alot of people's hang up is that it seems exclusionary to them, or seems like they are being slighted by being in the same confined space with someone and to know that person on the phone is just so not into them...Quote:

my pet peeve is fighting. People fighting over dumb things, and the thing is the people dont even *really* know that person. :(
Dumb people.
People who try to 'police' things that they know NOTHING about.
Gotta disagree. I think it's all about manners and upbringing and not encroaching on someone else's personal space. I work in a doctor's office and the normal chit-chat in the waiting room is for the most part almost hushed. Then you get someone in there with a cell phone talking and it's a whole different scene. I have actually seen people have to put away their books/magazines. I think that's just rude, but again it's all about how one was raised.Quote:

I have to agree with Pam here. I don't dislike cellphones or the use of them. But, why is it necessary for you to talk so loudly? If you do, then you are invading my space and you are very distracting. I have no interest in your conversation whatsoever.
It seems as though the cellphone has become some sort of god, that must be obeyed. I just read that they have become such a nuisance that a book of ettiquete will soon be published for the ignorant.
Why should you have to be taught consideration and manners - why should a minister/priest/rabbi have to stop his sermon and comment on the ringing of a telephone?
Cellphones have become a godsend in countries that never had basic telephone services.
But there is the feature of voice mail - and you could retrieve the message later.
It isn't a matter of whether you are "so not into them" - but it might be a matter of "you are so into yourself and this device that must be obeyed".
I hear you on that one Pam! Same problem in the mosque! Every few seconds........trrrrrrr...........tanananana...... ......tadadadatadadada, and all those silly ring tones everyone has! :eek: Its soooo annoying THERE, because people go to worship and don't want to hear rings every few seconds. They have signs all over the mosque, to turn your ringers off, and they make announcements too...........but how many people listen? :(Quote:

What makes me even more upset then cell phones in the mosque is ill-mannered kids in the mosque! Because its Ramadan right now, we're going to the mosque pretty much every night, and there are thousands of people there, so its a huge crowd and not easy to control. Our mosque........when they built it, they made a prayer room, specifically for mothers with young children, so if people come with their kids and the kids aren't behaving, they can pray there, and not disturb everyone else. Then they have babysitting service as well, so there's absolutely no excuse to see kids running around, screaming, crying, etc. in the mosque, in the prayer room that's supposed to be quiet! I just hate it when people don't control their children, really hate it. Also, I'm sure you folks teach Christian kids respect for the church. Muslim children should be taught to respect the mosque, cause its the house of God, a house of prayer. Its not a playground for heavens sake! They have volunteers trying to keep things under control, but people just don't listen.
I don't see why oh why they have to disturb other people when there's a room for mothers with babies, and a huge room with babysitters caring for the kids. :( People can be sooooo selfish. Of course when someone tells them something, even politely, then they become the bad person. :rolleyes:
Oh, I think you guys took that last comment kind of not how I meant it...
I was raised correctly. I have table manners, am professional, classy, don't wear white after labor day, can identify most crystal, know how to set a table, blah, blah, blah. But, I don't see myself as somehow lacking because I talk on a cell phone all day long, everywhere. I am not a loud person, so, maybe my cellphone talking is less 'offensive' then some others? But, I just don't get it at all.
I can't really see talking on a cell phone while waiting in a doctor's office (though I AM one of THOSE people that thinks my time is just as valuable as the doctor's and calls ahead for the wait time), nor, do I see talking on a phone in church (? do people really do that?), and I laugh at the gym people that do it...JUST like I laugh at the gym people that stand around and talk-real time real place- as it is just such a waste of time to be in a gym and do nothing. But, sitting outside Starbucks waiting on someone? At the grocery? Heck yeah...I put the phone into my pocketbook when I ring out, just as i would stop talking to my friend.
I really think it is the WAY people talk on cell phones (or as a group of people talking really loud in a restaurant, or walking five abreast, or drive the car with the music so loud, or the ,etc.).
I just don't see the issue with cell phones.
Now, I am off to write some thank you notes for some gifts less someone think I wasn't brought up correctly????
