Airlines and their treatment of customers.

I hate running off one plane as fast as I can for what seems like miles across a busy airport to catch my connection because they will leave without me if I cannot run fast enough to get to the gate by the deadline.

So not cool.

On the upside I can still run when needed. :)

:goodpost:

Yes to both of these.

Also:

I hate wind chimes.

Give me peace and quiet.

Nothing bugs me more than when I am outside, enjoying the pool or sitting in the sun with a gentle breeze blowing through my hair and then...,

Clang, clang, clang.

Disturbing my quiet enjoyment of the day.

Why oh why, do people think that everyone loves wind chimes just because they do??

PS: I think my filter may be broken.

When I click on what I think might be a small image, then transfer the image to post, and it turns out to be bigger than life.

Worse, when I can't find a smaller image to replace it in time before the window of time to edit, expires.

lol, I'll just stick to leaving a link. :blush:

When people ask you to tell them the truth about something, give your honest opinion, etc and you do, and they get mad! So why ask my honest opinion in the first place? Would you rather I lie to you??? Sheesh!

Sorry, picky eaters. I secretly judge you. :D

When someone repeatedly says "um" between sentences.
One of my coworker's says um after just a couple of words consistently and the other coworker puts the um between every sentence.

I am on conference calls with both coworkers everyday and it gets on my last nerve. Ugh!

:sigh:

um.. are you sure there're just not meditating between sentences..:giggle:

Haha that would be amusing. :)

Picking a mug up to use only to find theres a ring of stale coffee/tea left in it. Would like to add this ever happens on my watch !

When someone takes a shower & leaves dirty laundry on the floor when there is a washing basket right next to that dirty pile on the floor..... It just baffles me!

Rude people including people with no sense of social etiquette.

Example: Today I was standing in the hall chatting on the phone with mom. A man and woman got off the elevator and stopped six feet in front of me. The woman looked at me then whispered in the man's ear then he looked at me. Then the woman did it again. They chuckled and then went their separate ways.

I stood there looking back at them (six feet in front of me) and wondered why she didn't just point at me too. Rude!

I kept talking to mom and as the man walked by me he gave me the head bob and I returned it.

This is not the first time this has happened but it ticks me off everytime.

Chad I have to say I am so angry about this, angry this happened to you, angry that some people think this is acceptable.

I have to say had I witnessed this I would of been sorely tempted to make some disparaging remark about `whispering woman` within earshot so she could spend the rest of the day pondering as to why something about herself had prompted such a openly snarky reaction. That said clearly you were far more dignified than that, all credit to you for returning the guy`s head bob and keeping your composure. You stood head and shoulders above him.

For a long time my daughter was only comfortable in boys/mens clothing. We were in a department store one time and I was helping her pick out things to try on. She asked did I think anyone was `looking` at her because she was browsing the Men`s section, No I said and if they were so what. She smiled and happily went about choosing things {she does so love to shop ! :)} I then became aware someone was indeed `looking`. A chap waiting by the dressing rooms, he was watching her intently with a curiously fascinated expression and a ridiculing, sneer of a smile spreading across his face. I made sure my daughter was not aware I was discreetly observing his reaction, so intently was he watching {judging} her he was not aware either. She trotted off to try things on and I waited off to the side. When I saw her coming out and handing some items to the assistant he again became engaged in `watching` her. I stepped forward and shot him a killer look of `protective mama Bear/enraged Femme/Butch avenger` I`m sure you get what I mean ! He had the good grace to look extremely uncomfortable, struggling to hold my acid stare and began to blush profusely. I left him with a scathing up and down appraisal and we went off on our way. My daughter never knew of this exchange. I think had she noticed his reaction she would of fled with no purchases and been pretty shut down by it. I will never understand some people. :|
