Pet Peeves

[Ovda]

What are your pet peeves?

1. I hate it when people assume that you are going to do something for them like you can read their minds. Then they get mad at you for not doing the task/favor and they do not take responsibility for it do being done.

2. when people whine and grip about something as if that is going to change it.
"I'm sorry sir, but George W. Bush is president of the United States." Build a bridge and get over it.

3. Lack of common sense.
"Think about it. If you do not clock in and out, you will not get paid for the day." That's right--"Here's your sign."

5. Getting stuff in the mail you didn't ask for, like credit-card offers or AOL discs.

6. Car alarms going off for no reason. 😛

Hey OVDA, in spite of the generic examples you gave to make your three cardinal points I'm pretty sure I can tell... You're married, with children, aren't ya!


I also am not crazy about people who whine, but I think my top pet peeves are:

1. On coming drivers who don't dim their @#%&ing high-beam headlights. Dim-'em, d*mn-it, you're gonna kill somebody!

2. People who drive under the speed limit except when you get to an area where you can pass. Then they speed up to about 5 over the limit.


There... I feel better. (whew!) Thanks for letting me vent.

Great thread OVDA. (By the way, are you sweedish? Your name is similar if not the same as a sweedish phrase that basically translates as "sh*t happens".)

My Pet Peeves......

1- Hypocrites.....those who say one thing, but do another (do as I say, but don't do as I do)

2. People who "follow the crowd" and hang onto their every word, because they are not willing to think for themselves and form their own opinions.

3. Those who think that just because they have money, they are better than, or have more class than anybody else on earth. (Look at Dallas Cowboy owner Jerry Jones.....he is a bulti-billionaire, but does not have one shred of class or integrity)

4. Those who are willing to sacrifice, compromise, or "***** out" their morals and principles at the 1st sign of trouble.

5. Those who refuse to take responsability for their actions, and expect everybody else around them to take the blame.

SoleSeeker, I'm single with no kids. It's just that the people I work with and the customers whine like kids. That's the examples I was thinking of.

Screen Name: Ovda is a spirit in Finnish mythology. Ovda went through the woods looking for people to tickle to death. I'm Texas born, Texas breed, when I die, I'll be Texas dead.

My pet peeves

1. Holding the door open for someone and they don't even say "Thank you". Who am I, Carlton the doorman? LOL

2. Those f**king car stereos with the woofers booming! I wish the
drivers ear drums and the car windows would blow!

Ah well, the holidays are here, so try to put on a happy face😀

Tell me about it. You can hear that crap 10 blocks away. I was waiting at a red light, trying to listen to an Alan Jackson cd, but the car next to me, had all windows rolled down and was blaring his gangster rap, where every other word was either f*** bitch, or *****.

I turned my radio up and he stuck his head out his window and shouted "turn that crap off. Nobody wants to hear your crappy white-boy music".....he assummed everytbody wanted to hear songs about people dealing dope and killing cops




Ah well, the holidays are here, so try to put on a happy face😀

I haaaaaaaate it when crappy manufactured pop singers come out with nothing but cover-versions and get treated like musicians. I mean come on!!! They wouldn't know what a treble clef was if they sat on one! grr...

Those damn things are so common here in Southern California, you'd think I'd be used to them by now--yeah, right! But the fact that the stupid people in those cars WILL go deaf someday is the one positive about car stereos. 😀

P.S. Ticklemaster750, I hope you ignored that S.O.B. who yelled at you. I'd be pissed, too, but you never know if the driver's packin'! 😛
