New peeve thread???

[Van10]

I just hate mean people .....

Ditto!

My other major pet peeve is advertising. I find that it's getting out of control.
These days you can find it EVERYWHERE, on the bus, on the subway and in bus/subway stations, on billboards, as pop-ups on the computer, etc, etc...

It's found even in public bathroom stalls and it will be coming soon to cellphones!

Give us a break! The more a product or service is pushed at me the less I'm interested in it!!!

Here's another one...

When people walk down the middle of a parking lot row....
and keep looking over their shoulders to see if you are gonna hit them...

MOVE TO ONE SIDE AND LET THE CARS GO BY!!!

[just me]

You are so right Richard.
Another one is not moving grocery carts from the middle of the isle, making you wait till their done looking. And if you say excuse me, some act all p-o'd
at you like, how dare you, like its a big bother to move to let people thru.
That makes me sooo angry inside, I could just bust.
Back to my original statement, I just hate mean people

Or along the grocery store peeve, the people who see you looking from one side of the aisle and stand directly infront of you as if you were to look through them. Hello! I'm standing here out of your way so you can pass freely and this is how you repay me.

Or, if I am in your way, please say excuse you. I'll move, I promise. I once had a lady stand behind me and just clear her throat over and over. I purposfully didn't move because I was waiting for her to say "excuse me." I ended up asking her if she needed some water.

What is with people not dimming their high beams!! Lately people will have their high beams on in traffic, even in the daytime. It's especially bad when it rains. I guess they slept through that part of driver ed.

[Lady's Human]

I'm with you on that one, Smokey, however on GM vehicles with DRL (Daytime running lights) the system uses the high beam at 60% power for the lights. It's not neccesarily the person behind the wheel's fault, in some cases talk to the engineers at GM.

On the subject of high beams, I drive a truck. It's tall. The lights on it are bright, but I RARELY use the high beams. The fog lights are much better for seeing the fringes of the road, and are excellent for seeing deer on the side of the road. If you think I have my high beams on and insist on flashing yours at me to get me to turn off the high beams (They're not on, again, tall truck+aim+bright headlights=you THINK I have my high beams on) I may oblige you by turning my high beams on just to prove to you that they're not on in the first place.

I hate it when tall vehicles pull up behind my little truck and it's like the sun is glaring in my rear-view mirror. It's dangerous.
