Right now my biggest pet peeve is my co-worker. I love her she is the sweetest Libra I know, but we sit in cubicles and well it is not hard to hear each other's conversation and well she talks so loud and she is talking about things(her sexual) stuff and well uggghhhh I do not want to hear it. She talks on the phone ALL DAY LONG to her boyfriend its like can I please have a break. She talks like she is at home or something. I jst wish she would whisper cause I am not interested in none of her stuff and it makes me sick to have to listen..


Just venting...Uggghhhh...

I had a roommate from hell last year. The second I would leave me room she'd start either complaining or blabbing about herself. I started wearing my ipod whenever I was outside of my room, it worked really well. It also obviously drove her insane but there was little she could do about it.

So perhaps an ipod or headphones of some sort?

Loud motorcycle engines reving up....


People who talk out loud about their personal business. Like Mama Mia, I also knew a libra who did this...It was oh-so-annoying and too much info...yuck .

I'm A Rhode-Islander so its a pain in the a$$ for me to hear out-of-towners over-pronounciate their r's.


Oh, and people who crack their knuckles....ughhhhh

Cell phones are a biggie with me. I don't like driving/talking at the same time and that drives my friends nuts when they try to call me.

Listening to people eat whatever it is they're eating, and especially if I am talking to them on the phone. I consider it very rude. Also, being able to hear someone chew their gum.

People who sneak into traffic on the far right to cut in, especially if you've been actually sitting in traffic waiting...

The same idiot drivers who have to cut you off (and almost create an accident at the same time) to get in front of you on the freeway just to be one car ahead in bumper-to-bumper traffic (like they're going to get really far)

People at the grocery who leave their carts IN THE FREAKING MIDDLE of the aisle as if they are the only person on the planet who needs to get something done. Then get angry when you either say excuse me to get by or move their cart to one side if they don't have a clue by then.

Okay I'm done.

Until I think of more

Shopping..I dislike all forms of shopping..lol

grocery store..middle of the aisle cart person..
first..i look behind me..if no one is there..I'll simply leave the aisle and go around..look behind me..and there's a line..
I'll walk over to the person and say...

hmmmm..may I move your cart..the crowd looks unruly!..usually they look at me in surprise..because..they really had no idea..they were blocking the aisle..then we laugh..and all is well!

1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the heck is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2 People who are willing to get off their butt to search the entire room for the T.V. remote because they refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually.

3 When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". What good is cake if you can't eat it?

4 When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the heck would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this?

5 People who ask "Can I ask a stupid question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya?
i usually answer..."better than anyone i know!"

Petron A laugh burst out of me at the first one but I shut right up when I read the second one...
guilty

guilty as charged
I actually tried to use a button on the tv today and had to read the labels to know which button was volume.

I mute commercials. Every one. The remote comes in handy for this....

People who drive fast and have no respect for others and pedestrians...also people who take a LONG time at the check-out counter, knowing there are other customers waiting
