Lids left loose to only fall off without warning and spill crap everywhere.

The constant lint that always seems to come with any fleece garmet....and a lack of courage.

People shouting the answers to the puzzles on Wheel of Fortune OVER AND OVER AND OVER. I get it. You're a genius and you solved the freaking game before anyone on the tv show! That's wonderful. I've been known to shout letters, guesses and answers too. I think 5 times is enough during any given puzzle.

Minds that remember EVERY minute detail!
Oh wait!! That is not a pet peeve! That is a trait I wish I had!! LOL! Hmm wasn't that another thread about aging and what you wished you still could do?

Ummm ... Pardon the derail.... Now where were we??

Hair in the drain, lids not on jars properly and toothpaste buildup around the tube.

Cabinet doors that are left open. Turning on ALL the lights in the house. And the thermostat wars.... I'd keep it at 60 year round if I could. But I know I'm weird. So I'm okay with turning it up a bit. A bit is mid 70s in the early morning when first get up, and then 68-72 ish the rest of the day. It doesn't need to be 80 in here!

Oh, and running the a/c in the car when the windows are open. If the windows are down, the a/c needs to be off! Especially now that we live in a place with expensive gas.

YES and leaving the cover off, finding the toothpaste topless in a tub that isn't drained OR a bright pink wad of spit in the middle of the sink.

When the phrase "I could care less" is used! It's "I couldn't!!!"

Hair in the drain grosses me out.

The older I get, the less pet peeves I seem to have. I used to be mad crazy about certain things. The kind of crazy that makes other people crazy but now, not so much so. I'm pretty laid back and whatever will be will be about most things. I'm even pffft about the kitchen and bathroom chrome anymore.

I kinda remind me of this anymore...

YES, thank you for posting this one! I have a whole bunch of language-related pet peeves.

The strongest being "lie-berry". It's not a libary. That would make me a Libarian, making it seem I am from the Land of Libaria. There are 2 R's in the word, and neither of them are silent.

There is no such word as "supposably", or "orientate", or "nuke-u-ler".

I'll stop now. :D

Oh my! I could spend the rest of the day listing my pet peeves. Top rated ones are:

- Pictures that do not hang straight. (I cannot help myself, I have to straighten them. Usually it means waiting until my host turns their back.)

- People who constantly check their cell phones for email and/or facebook crap during dinner out or at a gathering. (I recently blew off a woman I was dating for this rude behavior.)

i would never even think of dating someone w. their head attached to a cell phone .. I;d walk out on a date like that ~ dayummmm i cant stand ppl who talk on cell phones in stores etc. , anything public . no class.

I regularly go out with a group of three women from my neighborhood. Right after we get seated, they all haul out their cell phones, put them on the table, and begin their "every 5 minute" check for messages. It makes me wonder how they survived before the advent of cell phones...

"irrigardless" :|

I think we need to get together and conversate about this. ;)

Finding crumbs in the couch cushions

OK. I admit to talking on the phone while shopping , or i plug in my ipod into my ears ..

When you are on a date leave your phone in your pocket and focus on your date.

Speaking of language related pet peeves. It make me crazy when someone use "lose" and "loose" in the wrong form. I see it often in chats.

Borrowing my hairbrush and leaving hair in it...

Huge peeve of mine. The misuse of ellipses. Example:

I had a great day........visited with my pony..she was happy that I brought her carrots...............................I'm so lucky to have a pony.........Life sure is great with ponies............................................ ...i think everyone should have a pony!!!............

Drives me fuckin crazy!!!!

To me the worst thing a loved one or friend can do to really tock me off is to hang up on me while we r having a difference of opinion. To me its just rude behaviorand shows a lack of respect. Believe I WILL tell u about the next time we talk usually rather quickly cuz I will call u back

I agree! Bbq sauce has been the worst so far OR when your spices have become dry and hardened so they no longer shake.

Oh stop! Femme crushes are totally exempt from the rules, silly girl!! :D

See your rep note for further explanation. ;)

MODERATION!
 

Sparkles -

Please refer to the section of our TOS where we discuss intolerance and specifically bullying and poking at other members.

For the record, I also reviewed the rep note that you left for another member here and want to make it super clear to you that you are about to find yourself on a lengthy time-out if you continue to use the forums here to play "mean girl" or "unnamed target".

While it's fine for you to be irritated that people are not posting, spelling, or using grammar the way you want them to, it is NOT OK to use this forum in a way that might make other people feel ashamed or ugly about participating here.

This is a diverse community. People sometimes misspell things. People sometimes use sentence structure creatively. People sometimes use a bunch of ellipses......................
Hell, some of us can barely read or write but that doesn't mean we are not worthy of each other's basic respect. Bottom line? Please think about how what you post might feel to someone else before you post it. And if you are doing that shit on purpose? It's shitty.

Appreciate your cooperation!
