Pet Peeves - Things that Annoy You

[surfnole]

I will start.

People who buy lottery tickets. I buy one every now and then. The buyers who I am referring to are those that come in with a few winners and then make purchase multiple tickets for multiple game, and then they buy for multiple people requiring multiple cash transactions. Soon the cashier line is backing up. Publix has a special line for lotto buyers, and that is a good thing.

Another is people with service dogs. For most it seems little more than an excuse to take their dog wherever they want with no real medical necessity. The worst are those who don't train there service animals, and they jump up on people, bark indoors etc. Any dog owner should train their dog to not jump on people. This can knock over and injure an elderly person or give a guy a blow to the nuts.

Backing into parking spots
Driving with fog lights on when there's no fog
Not using turn signals
Needy or overly whiney and complaining types
Nose blowing in public (restaurants especially) if its ok why cant I fart in front of you?
Snooty people or those that like to brag in general especially about who they are or what they have (nobody cares)
Moody or bitchy people.

Driving with fog lights on when there's no fog

This has been one of mine ever since BMW and Ford Explorers came out with them in the early '90's.

Guess you won't like me much.

 

[NoleFan2U]

People who are walking on a crowded street and just stop. For no reason.
People who lack common sense
Those who do a half assed job. Either do it right or don't do it at all.
Being late. Doesn't matter if its me or you who is late, I don't like it.

1.) Aggressive atheists

2.) People who think they are experts in every field and aren't

3.) Selfish people who only talk about themselves

4.) People who disagree with everything you say

5.) People who are obsessed with politics but don't do any activism or anything about it

6.) Anti-vaxxers

 

[nrcarlisle]

People who use the self-checkout lines at grocery stores with full grocery carts. Self-checkout should be for people with five items - maybe ten at the most. If it takes you longer than a minute to do self-checkout, you have too many items for it, go to a regular lane.

 

[seminoleed]

I almost forgot; people who post attacks on FSU QB's.

I didnt take you as a nose blower.

What’s your beef with anti-vaxxers?

You talking anti Covid or anti everything?

Edit: not getting into a vax debate. But for those that don’t believe in it, let natural selection do it’s thing

LOL. That's not what self-checkout is for at all. They are not 10 items or less express lanes. If that annoys you, you are in for a world of hurt. Most stores are going that route now. I guess you don't shop at Costco?

I think anti-vaxxers are ignorant.

 

[goldmom]

I think anti-vaxxers are ignorant.

So are judgmental jerks.

 

[BrianNole777]

I thought you blocked one of them?

 

[Funky Bunch]

Tip jars at takeout joints. I should subtract 3 bucks on the slip for picking it up myself.

 

[goldmom]

Yep.
And by the way I am vaxxed. So I cannot be ignorant.

I would add tipping to my list… I swear I’m tipping for things that I didn’t years ago.. or at least being asked to

Went to a MLB game the other day.. went to a concession stand for a slice of pizza and here’s what played out.

Wait in line for my turn, grab a pre packaged slice myself, grab a water out of the cooler myself.. pay with a card myself on a touch screen.. and on the screen it asks how much I want to tip..

Tip for what? For having a slice already pre made? Craziness

Yep.

Lotta tipping fatigue everywhere. The Washington Post had a long article about it a few weeks ago.

Same with mom and pop type places too.

I stand in line for ice cream, you put a couple of scoops in a bowl for me.. am I the jerk for not putting a few bucks in your jar? I am paying for the price of the ice cream.. how much more should I give you? Unless you are going to follow me to my seat and feed it to me.


Now sit down restaurants, I’m a guaranteed 20% tipper regardless of how good or bad the service was. Which is odd because I am anti tipping when it comes to a lot of things.

Same here.

I don't tip for carry out. I'm already driving there to pick up and paying $3.50 per gallon.

Restaurant owners should pay their employees more so their employees don't have to ask for tips, IMO.

 

[surfnole]

Anybody getting close to a green light, going slower than the speed limit with a gap of cars in front, and then squeezes under the yellow just before the red.

Those who make an agressive right turn in front of you, with nobody behind you, then drive slower than you.

There is a no tip block right next to the other % blocks. I have no problem touching that in that situation.

 

[littleitch1]

People!

 

[littleitch1]

People that put labels on everything!

 

[littleitch1]

People that rape the oceans, and kill animals just for the thrill of the kill!

Airboats that refuse to muffle their exhaust. The Kissimmee used to be so peaceful, but airboats are driving the nesting birds away, noise pollution is a bad thing too!

Sounds like I’m at a drag strip or airport

People in general that do stupid, mean, hateful shit

 

[Ohio1nole]

I forgot my biggest pet peeve.. overly aggressive drivers.. on an open 2-3 lane highway, go ahead and make your good time..

But when you are coming into the city, nothing irks me more than drivers doing 80mph swerving in out out of lanes, tailgating until their next chance to pass.. driving like a huge Richard cranium

All of fender benders (or worse) type of accidents can be avoided if people just slow the hell down.

 

[BrianNole777]

Yep.
And by the way I am vaxxed. So I cannot be ignorant.

You're only fully vaxxed with 5 shots, like me.

Just saying, Goldie.

 

[ChiefWB]

Constant complainers. What ever happened to Gary Cooper?

 

[NoleFan2U]

I didnt take you as a nose blower.

Not a nose blower or complainer but a back in parking (its so much easier to get the truck out of a spot if I back in), fog light user (when my car had them, now they are out of style), sometimes out of flasher fluid driver, needy, whiney, moody and bitchy at times (I have not gone through menopause yet) badass female.

Um no.

"Fully vaccinated” is not the same as having the best protection that staying up to date provides. You were “fully vaccinated” when you had completed only a primary series based on your age, health status, and vaccine type. Thus, you can be “fully vaccinated” and not have completed all vaccine doses recommended for you, which is called “up to date”. Currently, only Novavax has a recommendation for a primary series.

You reminded me of a few.

Religious zealots
Overly judgmental people
Virtue Signalers
People that think those that dont agree with them are ignorant
People that steal condiments and cause them to go away

Thanks for the help!

 

[seminoleed]

I think we can all agree on door to door salesman.

Down here in Cape Coral, and Ian blew through, I got at least 5 a day for months representing roofers, insurance adjusters, yada yada yada. No soliciting signs mean nothing to these people, and they tend to be nosy and ultra aggressive as well.

Answer the door armed. They dont come back.

You're in the Hall of Fame for my #2.

2.) People who think they are experts in every field and aren't

You're like the Babe Ruth of that.

Truly. 😆

Therefore, she's not fully vaccinated.

As a non vaxxed person, my blood might be worth some money in a few years! 😂

How many boosters do you plan on getting?
