my list of pet peeves, tho i hate that term and want to find another, let's see:
anal perceptions of others...nope too long
hard to be accepting of other peoples idiocracies, nope not working
stupid antics of stupid people, nope again, probably points at me anyway
well fine, pet peeves it is then.
1: why can't people use the large area marked by a white line to turn into the place they are going? why do they stop in the travelling lane and then turn causing traffick to stop and almost causing wrecks? are they not aware? pull to the right darn it!!! then turn, and please, please, use your TURN SIGNAL, not WHEN YOU DECIDE TO TURN, before.
2: DO NOT call me at 12:00 a.m. and ask if you woke me up, no, i am 47 yrs old and out being a party animal, and all you want to do is ask what time the bar-b-que is three days from now......
3: do not come in my house, that has lumber stacked here and there and old nails on the floor , no walls around the bathroom area, wall studs exposed everywhere, hammers, nail gun, air compressor, etc., etc. and ask if we are remodeling, no we always live like this....
4: as i walk toward you in the store, and you watch me walk, i'm limping, listing from side to side, and i look at a piece of exercise equipment, and you offer your opinion that walking is the best exercise...well then...
5: if i have one male dog and one female dog and there are puppies in the basement, who do think those puppies call their mom? not the male dog!!! and you know our dogs gender. maybe not..nick male, chyna, female...figure it out. and please, DO NOT try to have the male dog feed the pups and wonder what is going on...
6: did you know there is a traffic ticket[hanging from a magnet from the stove hood, compliments of our daughter] on your stove? oh my god!! that damn stove, there go my rates.
7: do not spend three hours helping me plant flowers and then when you play"chase the ball" with the dogs on the flowerbed wonder why i get an attitude.
8: when you come over and are hungry, do not look in the fridge and inform me i haven't any food that you like to eat.
9: isn't chicken fairly generic? "i put your chicken in the shade" "it's a rooster"...... okay then.
10: do not show up in the morning, make a pot of coffee, pour one cup, leave it somewhere still full, till cold never drink any......and leave the pot on....
okay, enough for now, these all happened in the last week except the coffee thing, everyday occurence by my brother-in-law no matter how many times i mention how much aggravation that particular act causes.
