Pet peeves

[Chrisada]

Ugh. BIL's wife is queen of stupid FB crap. Please don't tell everyone you might get foreclosed on or that your husband is an asshole for not helping you paint. They've actually had fights ON freakin FB.

[niener]

SoonerTexan, DH came home this morning and literally dropped his scrubs next to the hamper, as in they were touching it. It would have been less annoying if he'd just left them in his usual place of the foyer.

I can't tell you how glad I am other people's husbands do this. It drives me out of my mind. This and putting his plate on the kitchen counter. Dude. The dishwasher is literally right there. And then get all pissy when I call him back into the kitchen and ask him to put his dishes away. If you'd just put it where it was supposed to go the first time...

Not using turn signals.
Going the speed limit in the left lane and refusing to get over.
Forcing your beliefs on others.
Picking at a scab/ingrown hair/lip.
When my dog stares at me (she'll do it for hours if I don't make her stop).
When my cat pees on the rug.
Chain mail (if you forward this to 20 people right now you'll have good luck forever!!!!!!)
Facebook statuses clearly meant for one particular person. Just send them a damn PM and quit with this "you know who you are" mess.
Nail filing. Seriously, it's the worst sound in the entire world.

Lateness and assholes.

[Thirteen]

People who "wish you'd just speak English! I can't understand you at all!"

When someone refers to another person as "an illegal."

Random trash, left on counters. Food containment, saleen solution, caps to empty bottles. Why?

Expresso.
Supposably.
Pitchure. (Picture)
Tempatchure.

Overuse of cologne or perfume. If you left, but it reeks of your presence, it's too much.

DH came home this morning and literally dropped his scrubs next to the hamper, as in they were touching it. It would have been less annoying if he'd just left them in his usual place of the foyer.

Just yesterday I came into my office in the morning to find a pair of boxers on the couch. Apparently DH left them there after he took a shower (office is right next to bathroom) and went into the office to turn on his computer. That one actually kinda cracked me up because it was so weird.

Other than that, I'm on the grammar train too. Especially the bizarre western PA thing where people say that "the car needs washed" or "the plant needs watered". And they have no idea how wrong it sounds to someone not from here.

The thing that absolutely bugs me the most though is leaving the dishrag in the sink. The water never drains out of it, it gets all mildew-smelling, and I can just picture the germs all over it -- and I'm not usually a germophobe! I have to immediately get a clean one if DH leaves it in the sink. Makes me shudder to think about it.

OK, this is cracking me up because I've got a thousand things that tick me off, from petty to more aggriegious offenses



people who assume that because I'm a white, heterosexual mainstream Christian it is o.k. to make racist, sexist, homophobic jokes or send me ultraconservative email propoganda.
people who use their religion as a shield to hate
Mompetitions and mommy drive-bys
rudeness
mean people
condescension
walkers and slower runners who insist on walking 5 abreast who clog up a race course. (Did you not see the pace signs when you were sitting in the chute for twenty minutes?)
Facebook, in general.
irresponsibility in kids, especially mine
cell phone rudeness (at a minimum one should say, "Excuse me, I have to take this call")
the mainstream media failure to portray news beyond reality stars and Tom Cruise's third divorce.
young girls who dress like streetwalkers (Seriously, parents are buying this stuff!)
Sassy kid tv programming
the banking industry
real estate transactions
airport security shakedowns
parents who check out when their kids become teens
the failure to teach children foreign languages from a young age

Um, I think I enjoyed this exercise a little too much....LOL

I totally gave up on being irritated by DH's weird placement of crap. I love that man and he's fabulous, but OMFG his ADD is crazy making. He sets things down when he gets distracted and forgets where he puts them. I once found the TV remote in the freezer. You just can't make this shit up.

Taking things out and not putting them back.

Leaving food trash & silverware out for hours after using them all over the house.

There are more but that's currently what's on my mind.

[Auspicious]

I was reminded of one my husband's today: people who mix up monkeys and apes! (I saw that comparing monkeys and chimpanzees is on Cora's preschool curriculum for next week--husband will be thrilled.)

[hanginginthere]

grammar mistakes
people who correct grammar mistakes or enunciation incorrectly
hubby loading the dishwasher or doing laundry- nothing comes clean when he does it so why bother if I have to do it all again? argh! yes, he is trying to help but sometimes I think he does it to annoy me... ;p
how people talk about being a professional when they are not in a profession
how friends refer to daycare as school and daycare workers as teachers- it just irks me- not knocking what daycare workers do but it is not the same as teaching...
the expressions, "I'm just saying..." and "it is what it is..."

[diggitydot]

the expressions, "I'm just saying..." and "it is what it is..."

Add, "I'm just keeping it real/honest," and you've got my cringe trifecta. Gah.

Liars
Hypocrites
Sassy neighbor girls and their brainwashed parents who think they can do no wrong.
Girl drama
People not following through
My indecisiveness
People driving lower than the speed limit cause they are talking on their cell phones
My Kids putting me on the spot in front of their friends
My kids thinking I should be a short-order cook
My husband blurting out questions when he is in our office like I am standing right next to him when I am really upstairs
Most of my MIL's dumb choices
People who think I can read their minds
My husband leaving his workout clothes on the mudroom floor and thinking they will miraculously make it upstairs to the laundry room
My kids leaving trash in my car
Cliquey mothers who sign up for their kid's classroom volunteer opportunities like it is a competition.
Kid's homework really meant for parents
Getting all school paperwork times three since I have 3 kids in the same school. I don't need three school handbooks.
Autocorrect on my phone
Migraines

[Curegirl]

I'M TOTALLY WITH YOU ON PEOPLE NOT FOLLOWING THROUGH. WTF!!!

(As you can see, I'm totally calm when thinking about it)

[v-girl]

Vague, high and mighty Facebook statuses that contain typos. If you are so right and perfect all the time, learn to proofread.

Can I add:
* People who assume an anaphylactic reaction is the same as a food intolerance and nod their head at me like I'm a crazy helicopter mommy.
