Pet Peeves/Everyday Things that Make you CRAZY! Please Join Me.

I had a lady in front of me at Caputo's last month who ordered all her cold cuts by the slice. "I'll have 40 slices of this, 35 of that...." and would then double check with the counter lady to make sure that it was exactly 40 and no more. I suppose it didn't take much longer to get her order taken care of than if she had ordered by the pound, but, at the time, it about made me want to jump out of my shoes.


Caputo's is the worst,I feel like i'm gonna go postal when i'm at the deli.And no one there seems to know what excuse me means.
 
People who park illegally in handicapped spaces, either without a tag altogether or having a tag but not having the disabled individual with them.
It makes me so irate I want to vomit.
I saw a friend's younger brother pull into a handicapped space at target, his fancy shmancy wife in her fancy shoes and designer bag pranced out and did he shopping while he waited, in the handicapped space, with the car on. I wanted to hit him.
I also see the family of a disabled 8 year old old drive their van to the store and park in the space-and she is NOT in the car.
I hate people like that.

I so saw someone get busted for this at Target. Bunch of kids (boys and girls) in the car. Girls go into the store, boys sitting in the car in the handicapped spot. Someone must have called the cops (the station is on the other side of Target) and the cops blocked in the car.

Well the yelling and screaming and foul language! Cops were as cool as could be, but all of the boys ended up in the cruisers, my jaw fell to the ground with the language the girls had to say and they towed the car. Left the girls in the parking lot.

It was priceless, a thing of beauty. I was late getting back to work since I stayed to watch it unfold.
 
Only needing it now for distances. Doing rehab to get my legs stronger & can get up the stairs in my house(thrilled over that)

Yay! Hope your legs continue to get stronger! :cartwheel:
 
That is the most lovely thing I've ever heard. Yay for those police!!!!

Oh one more thing. People who don't belt their kids. I was once at a red light and was behind a big suburban-so lots of room to move. I saw kids WALKING AROUND inside it. Light turned green, and they went, without a care in the world. I have considered calling 911 when I see that. Is that allowed?

Ohhh my gosh that so bugs me.... kids sitting on laps is another one I've seen... in fact I saw this couple weeks ago and just shook my head.

Go into CVS to do the Pepsi deal... and I'm there about 10 minutes some guy walks in with a BABY (couldn't be more then 8 months old....) with NO COAT, SWEATER NOTHING!!! I think to myself ,wearing 3 layers as that's HOW COLD it was that night, and I can't believe this guy has nothing on that poor child! He walks up to the Mom and I am ITCHING to say something.... but bite my tongue, pay for my **** and get the **** OUT of there!

Some people REALLY shouldn't be parents!
 
Toliets that automatically flush....before you are done using them.

Or the ones that don't at all, and there's no emergency button/handle...


Or people who don't check to see that all's been flushed...

Ohh - sometimes it is an "oops" moment.

One night I was very tired and it was cold so I put Lex in the car first and then took the bags out of the grocery cart and put in the back of the truck. As I'm driving down the road I notice a police car just beside me, but a little ahead of me. And then I see something in the rear view mirror. I keep seeing something, but it is dark so I can't figure out what.

My heart was racing when I realized that it was Lex walking around in the back seat. I had placed him in his car seat and intended to belt him in after loading the groceries. Well of course I didn't and he was having a blast.

No where to turn off (was driving by the forest preserve!) and I didn't want to pull to the side of the road and attract the attention of the police officer. Lex got to wander around until I pulled into a gas station.

Haven't made that mistake again.

In that case... TOTALLY understandable! But of course DANGEROUS girlfriend... did you get a ticket.. I probably woulda blamed it on him... Oh office her musta let himself out of his belt! LMAO....... :bowing:

Nope, but I bet I pissed everyone off that I kept driving slower than the cop so that he was always in front of me!

Now I never just put Lex in the car seat with the intention to go back and belt him in, if he's in the car seat it gets belted.

I had just had my youngest and was sick and beyond tired. Brought both kids into the truck. Had them all belted in (I thought). Off to the store to get meds as I had a cold. I look in the rear view mirror to see my oldest is seeming extremely tall. Thought is the seat positioned right? He is just too tall. I pulled over to see that when I thought his over the shoulders type belt didn't latch completely. It had double latchings and one didn't catch. So he finagled and voila, he gets out and stands up in his seat. I caught it before we were on the main road, but scary that I made that mistake.

I think this happens to everyone at least once. No worries!

Once you make that horrible mistake, you never make it again!
 
and the ones who eat while talking to you on the phone and you hear all the chomp chomping :tap:
 
I think it might be easier to ask what doesn't annoy me.
people who wear leggings as PANTS--they are not pants--when you wear them like that it looks like you are wearing tights and a shirt--I dont care what you think....
Saw a lady like this. She must have thought it looked good ... it didn't.

People who lie right to ur face
Hate that!

See that all the time. I think ... they sure don't look handicapped.

Ummm I eat while talking to my sister. It is not unusual for her to call and talk for 3 hours at a time. I don't get anything done then and she gets mad at me when I tell her I have to go I have homework to do or want to eat dinner. It doesn't matter to her since she wants to talk.

One that annoyed me: I had 2 of my nieces and nephew with me (ages 4, 2, and 3 months old). We went shopping one day. I had a really good parking place - it was extra large - where I could open the car doors all of the way to get them in and out easy. When we came back out, I found some car squeezed in next to me and was sharing my parking place. This made it difficult to get all of the kids back in the car since I could barely open the one door. Hello, I parked there because I needed the extra space, not so I wouldn't have to walk very far.

I think most people just annoy me.:ranting:
 
ok, jll, if she's gonna talk to you for 3 HOURS :faint: , i guess you really do need to eat :)
 
Kids not in carseats drive me crazzzzzy. I seriously want to call the cops or pray that one will see it.

People blatantly littering. Smokers flicking there cigs anywhere on the streets.

People who drive slooooow in the left hand lane on the expressway.

People who wear white socks with black/dark shoes.

White pumps....even worse if wearing pantyhose

rude people in general

people talking REALLY loud on their cellphones.
