These Are A Few Of My "Not So Favorite" Things!

Nancy ~ I have the perfect prescription to let go of all your pet peeves,

A DAY AT THE SPA

Followed by a new year resolution: I choose not to have any pet peeves....its your choice !

Two rules to help coping with life...

1. Don't sweat the small stuff.

2. It's all small.

Ok, ok, ok.... I do have pet peeves:

- People trying to talk on their cell phone and not paying attention how they are driving.

- Anything to do with the New York Yankees.

- Gas prices / cost of oil from the middle east.

- Female products commercials during a family show on TV

- What's happening with Brittany, Paris, Lindsay or Brad.

- Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving.

- Hearing "You have to dial a 1 for a long distance call" on your home phone because you are used to using your cell phone which doesn't need to have a 1 before you make a long distance call and the phone company should automatically add the one becuase they have the technology to do so because they knew you forgot the 1 to begin with.

 Ya know... I kinda feel better after venting. We should do this more often. ; )

Oh, and some more things...

- finding an empty toilet paper roll in the bathroom when it's too late.

- stores that don't accept debit cards.

- receiving cold food that should have been hot in a restaurant.

- not being able to talk to a human being for help until you've gone through 10 menus.

Oh my...I think Kenny may have named many of my own except...

- Baseball fans that smack about talk the New York Yankees  :o)

People that have to pull into the left to make a right turn!

Standing in a line behind 12 other shoppers with only 1 register open and 6 others closed

Self Check Out registers at the grocery that need "Associate" help anyway

Soggy pizza crust

Ooops, that should have read: Baseball fans that *talk smack about* the NY Yankees :)

Jackie

Yankee fans.... Oh, brother.  ;D

Hi Nancy - LOVE your blog!  Where do you get your images?  Oh and BTW, I have something for youe pet peeve list:

ONE SIZE FITS ALL!

Hi Nancy,

People who are into the turn before they turn on the turn-signal.

Clients who tell you, as you are presenting their CMA, that their dad and mom, grandpa, uncle Bill, the neighbor, or the neighbor's dog told them that the property was worth way more than that!

Waiters/Waitresses who tell you, "Sorry we're out of that this evening" after you have researched the menu for half an hour and placed your order.

The total power the News Media has over the public.

What is happening to Christmas in this country. Can I say Christmas?

Interest rates charged by Credit Card Companies!

Someone please stop me....I think I'm beginning to foam at the mouth. Sorry, I'm back now!

Have a great Holiday Season Nancy!

Kerry

Nancy, great post!  Here are a couple of my pet peeves:

- people that park their cars so close to your driver side door that you have a hard time getting out of your car

- people that take up 2 parking spots with their car - especially at Christmas time when parking is at a premium!

Have you noticed how many of the pet peeves added to this post are about cars or driving? 

All the photos in your blog are your own?  I'm impressed!

People who talk to others right in the middle of me saying something after they called ME on the phone.

Fathers who call what they do "parenting" when they don't bother to call their kids for 2 weeks until their next "parenting time".  No Christmas presents, no birthday presents, just "parenting time".

Oh yeah, when someone says, "supposably".  Yes, I know it's a word - I looked it up.  But "supposedly" sounds so much more dignified!!

Kerry "Ski" - I know what you mean on that one.  I was with one of my girlfriends when she opened one of those unsolicited credit offers for holiday cash... the interest rate was an astounding 84% (that was NOT a typo!).  The loan was for $600.  Needless to say it instantly went into the shreader!

My pet peeves:

* People who text or talk on cell phones at a restaurant (and they are with their family or friends). This also applies in cars or shopping. 

* People on the phone in line or at the register.  Be where you are.  If you need to be on the phone then don't be in line - it is just rude!

*People who use my last name in the word tomorrow... it is NOT tomarrow (I have a friend who spells it like that every time!)

*People who add a 'w' on my last name even though I didn't say it - Marro

Wow..I think we have all covered the driving pet peeves so here are some different one's:

-People who hold the door open for you but I am too far away so I have to run to it. If your making me run it's no help to me!

-I say "Happy Holidays" I don't do it to be politically correct I say it because we are in the "Holiday Season" I hate it when people correct me and say "Merry Christmas" just to prove a point. When it's closer to Christmas I will say it. But not yet.

-People who tell me I'm too young to know about clutter

-My boyfriend after he makes a PB&J sandwhich and leaves peanut butter and crumbs all over the counter.

I'm sure I have alot more..

Kenny you made me laugh out loud...literally. You and I have some of the same pet peeves. I have a few more.

~Bladder control product commercials and having to explain to my 12 year old daughter what they are used for.!!!

~ I too hate when drivers pull out in front of you fast, wheels screeching around the corner only to see when I look in the rear view mirror that there is no one behind me.

~Erectile Disfunction commercials and having them come on when I am watching TV with my 16 year old son!!!

~Going to get some ice cream and discovering that the tub is empty!!!

~People that leave their dogs out all night in the dog run, and then the dog is howling all night long. When I look out the window I see their TV on and they are ignoring the fact that their stupid dog is waking up the whole neighbourhood. (I also have a dog, so don't send me hate emails saying that I hate dogs...:P)

I have more, but I think that is enough for now.

Great blog btw!!
