I can't stand when the shower curtain isn't pulled back straight...or if someone takes out the garbage and doesn't put a new bag back in.

and the toilet paper has to come off the top of the roll. I will even switch it at other peoples houses...lol
|
People who walk through the doors of the grocery store with their cart and then just stop- to dig in their purse, or whatever- and block the way. Drives me insane.

I cringe when I hear the advertisement on TV that says their product is "gooder" or when I hear news commentators say "You guys......." or "these guys"......ARRRRGH!
|
People who put their trash sacks at the curb the night before pick up. The stray dogs or cats tear into it and there is garbage all over. The next week, they do the same thing.
|
Mine is when my students (or anyone) tries to talk for me, assuming they know what I am going to say next. I always change it up on them and say something different if I can, just to prove they were not "reading my mind." My middle school students think they know everything. It gets really old.
My other pet peeve is gum chewing... loudly. I don't chew gum because I cannot stand having to watch or listen to others. |

We have to have a fire permit to burn, and I don't think anyone knows what the word recycle means.

I hate it when the covers are too tight over my toes in the bed at night. :lol:
Also, when the neighbor's sweet old dog drags the cat food dish off into the yard. Oh, and when I have to stand at the sink with the water running for a full minute til it warms up enough to put my hands under it in the winter. Just hate that! Jan in VA |
My pet peeves are people (including newscasters) who use "I and "Me" in the wrong place "Rose spent the day with Jake and I instead of "Rose spent the day with Jake and me"...it just grates!
Servers in restaurants who refer to my lady friends and me as "You Guys". |

When we go for walks in the summer, the kids will even pick up cans and bottles and carry them home in bags to recycle them. |

Misspelled words anywhere, especially in the newspapers.
|
I shudder at the "I and Me" thing, too.
Would they say "Rose spent the day with I."? duh

Have you noticed that people are losing the skill of spelling words correctly?
|
Adding an s to anyway.
Pet peeve threads getting shut down. Adults having smug little adolescent rants. Linty thread. C'mon, now! Unrealistic expectations. Lousy restaurant food. |
yes, one of my pet peeves, too.
|
improper spelling... now watch me make a mistake...LOL
|
people who talk on their cell phones and drive
Inconsiderate drivers Parents who argue with a 5 yr old in the checkout lane over a candy bar they don't need. Dish Network's customer service. Try reasoning with a man who calls himself Peaches......LOL |
actually just an irritant at this time, but trying to figure out what day and time it is by looking at the time line above my name.... mine says Feb 13, but it's still the 12th here... and 1:19am it's only 10:pm
|
A couple of common English errors just aggravate me to no end.
The misuse of your and you're or their, there and they're. People don't seem to be thinking about what they're saying. Thanks! Lori |

I have often wondered if more people are poor spellers these days or if we are just exposed to more poor spellers because of chat rooms, texting, etc. Who knows? Lori |
It irriates me when I think how short life is and I sit and hear comments to make problems for people who go with the flow of life...like some people do not have enough to do...too much idle time....it is like "get a life"
|
This has been very interesting.
|
I agree with the spelling and the grammar. I am an English teacher and I constantly deal with this issue. My students do not seem to care.

rude salesclerks.
