New peeve thread???

[dukedogsmom]

Might I add the people at work that have those bad habits, plus don't clean their keyboard, etc with alcohol for the next person? I keep my own alcohol and clean the desk as soon as I sit down.

[G.P.girl]

ok heres one: so i'm standing in my kitchen (windows that face the street) and i see this lady walking down the street on the other side drinking a cup of coffee. and theres kind of a cement wall next to the side walk (the nieghbors house is kind of raised up) and she stops and starts staring at the neighbors house and i'm like 'hah... she's stalking the nieghbors' and then she sets down the cup fo coffee and starts walking off. so i open the door and i'm like hey! wanna pick up your cup? and she's like 'ooooh its not mine' and i'm like "uhhh i just saw you drinking out of it" and then she just kinda looks at me and says "yeah, i just drank the Sh*t out of it" and then walks off like she just sooo cool. and she was a grown woman, not a teenager, not even close.

I just hate mean people .....

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

[Lobodeb]

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.

[CathyBogart]

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.

Elevator ettiquitte.

1. If I'm standing and waiting for an elevator, you stoll up, magicallly, the doors open as you arrive, why do you think you should be the first one on? I've been standing here waiting. If it wasn't for me, it wouldn't be here.

2. If I'm waiting for the elevator, the button is already pushed, I don't need you to push it again. I'm fairly confident that I pushed the button correctly. Do you think that because you came and pushed the button again, the elevator thinks, "hmm, someone else is waiting now, I better hurry up."

3. The elevator knows what to do. It doesn't need you to push the "close doors" button after every stop. Engineers have already programmed it so you don't have to worry about it.

4. If it's just you and me in an elevator, you don't need to stand right on top of me. Nor do I need you to inspect my bag or any other items that I'm carrying.

5. If you come in the elevator, and hit the highest floor, please don't block the door and get attitude when people on lower floors ask you to move.

I better stop, I'm getting worked up.

[smokey the elder]

When there are two lights on either side of the center of the car and both sets are on, as far as I'm concerned that's having your high beams on. I think after driving for 20 years I can tell.

6) Try to keep your tongue in your mouth when standing next to your partner.

I REALLY DISLIKE A 'Z', AT THE END OF A WORD WHEN IT SHOULD BE AN 'S'


This morning I am putting a case into the computer and there are two things wrong with a word.....

Chron'z disease.


The word is spelled wrong and the "Z" at the end....

--------------------------------

Health care professional don't need to know how to spell...just cure!

Mispelling (I do it all the time when type stuff on PT) grammar (I do it all the time when type stuff on PT), But to put a 'z' at the end of a word like that is really STUPID..

It's a disease! Not some rapper/hiphop name.....those guys can't spell, talk or sing anyway...


Again-
If you are going to work and you need to write CHECK your spelling, grammar.
Some old, stupid guy like me is not going to respect you and your new

Hip Hop/Rap Medical Dictionary!!


I can hardly wait...


"For shizzle! Does tonzilz gots to be eli-mon-nated from yous trap!"


"Are you really a doctor, Dre?"

[Lobodeb]

How about those idiots that have one headlight out, so rather than get it fixed, they just drive with their high beams on. Ok, blind me because your too cheap/lazy to fix your car.
