I get annoyed when people stand outside in groups, clapping for the NHS... because that's worth the risk. 🤦‍♂️

Lol you must have loved the Westminster Bridge thing. If anything we are at least getting to know just how stupid some people are. XD

My pet peeve of the day is people acting like the Coronavirus isn't happening and all the deadlines should be EXACTLY THE SAME.

Y'know.. perhaps there's a point to Westminster Bridge, maybe those stupid enough to do that might just end up removing themselves from the gene pool ~ always think on the bright side :xFwink:

I found it quite amusing when a member of the public questioned why staff members of a supermarket had a bottle of hand sanitizer behind the counter for their use when there were none on the shelves for customers to buy.

hm... idk, maybe because we have significantly more contact with other people (i.e, the Public)? 🤷‍♂️
 
Nasty ass people. Attitude wise.
Just plain bitchy and unpleasant and most definitely punchable material.
 
People who are serious all the time. I just don't get it. Why are you like that?

People with a terrible sense of humour, I may not think you're funny, but at least I understand where you're coming from. I just have a real block engaging with the super serious, like there is something fundamentally different about us that prevents us from communicating.
 
How hard it is to get sarcasm across on the internet, as it usually starts a fight and if you tell them you were being sarcastic they don't believe you.

OK here's a HUGE pet peeve of mine. God, I loathe this so much, lol.

When photographs are referred to as "memories". My SO's phone just did this by popping up with "you have a new memory" and it reminded me of how much I hate this. Photos are NOT repeat NOT memories. Memory does not work like a photograph at all. It's such a BS concept.

Also when people want to do something cool or whatever like let's say go to Disneyland and they say "I want the children to make new memories" or "we made lots of new memories". Like, sure, don't actually experience anything at the time, just use it as a way to videotape something badly into your brain. Don't actually value what is happening right now, don't live in the moment, just hoard up the snapshots for later.

UGH. I'm so mad. You can't even conceive of how annoyed this makes me. XDDDDD
 
I probably mentioned it before but when people I don't know call me 'hun' or 'sweetheart' or 'doll' or any of that. It's annoying as hell and especially since people I do know don't even call me that.
 
People who use "by the way" when discussing something. It just comes across as really passive aggressive, similar to "well acktually".
Vell Aucktuallalalaly, it is merely the act of Pazuzu possessing the person to bring something they may not of remembered up. By za Wayrdo, trololololol, lololol.

Latter gets cringy if there's a well before it, because it appears the guy doesn't want to commit to whatever it is they're spewing up. Though I think actually serves a true purpose directly. But imagine if some jackwagon said:
"Well, by the way"
 
One of my biggest pet peeves is when you work hard, put all your effort into something and don't get acknowledged for your hard work. But the lazy lying aggressive coworker / rando gets praised for something they lied and stole to achieve.
 
I'm getting real sick of seeing that one specific picrew everywhere, the one with the characters at a little bit of an angle.
 
M Mesenterium I love the cat videos and I agree with your argument. Thanks for looking out for our four-legged families (be they canine or feline or other). =)

Oh, and do pardon me if I don't have a pet peeve to share. I'm currently in a mood where I'm feeling that life is to be enjoyed, learned from, and shared.

Sure, many of us are having difficulties staying at home. Nitpickiness grows exponentially when you feel stuck with it. Loud mom on the phone? I'd probably grab my headphones and dive into some music or online learning. Roommate takes my Dr. Pepper and replaces it with cheap stuff? Glad they replaced it, but I'd let them know how I felt in a civil manner and if it kept up, I'd keep the Dr. Pepper in my room and just grab a glass with ice from the kitchen. Someone taking credit for someone else's work? Well, that's where I'd stand up if I had convincing evidence to the contrary, whether it were my work or someone else's. What's wrong is wrong and I can't just let it happen.

Not having a pet peeve to talk about, the most constructive thing I can hope to do is try and help others with theirs. Seems the compassionate thing to do. =)

Honor and fun,
Dann =)
 
people who act like i'm an idiot or deaf when i don't hear them and ask them to repeat themselves. i am genuinely hard of hearing and i have only a 50/50 shot of catching something the first time i hear it. i can't help that and it really doesn't help when you start melodramatically raising your voice and rolling your eyes. like, thanks, yeah, i can't hear. i promise, i wish i could so i could stop dealing with jerks who act like it's the world's biggest chore to repeat a sentence to me.

i also work as a cashier so my other pet peeve is just. people. right now. people don't read signs, are incredibly rude, and act like you're the dumb one constantly even when it's them making a mistake. so frustrating.

As someone that also works in retail, I feel you on the atomic level.
 
Wonna know my pet-peeve right now?

When people consistently <3 your posts but you can't hug them 😥

defenderofberk defenderofberk I hope this'll suffice

Me, thinking about all the other people that also consistently <3 my posts...

look around.gif

and I neglected to include them...​
 
I just think you have a great sense of humour and make good points about this and that. :)

My personal retail pet peeve is when a kid is trashing the section you just did but their mother looks like the type that might explode if you tell the little darling off. Comes from working in a low income shop I guess, but it does seriously annoy me.
 
When you have to keep working under a pandemic, your co-workers vary from upset to despair, you have to clean some of the dirtiest rooms known to man because those taking them up like going out of their way to trash it, and all the customers are still pricks, making any attempts to resolve morale crumble down. It's like working at a Walmart. Or any store during any potential form of black friday. ಠ_ಠ
When you know that the moment you can save up enough to get into a house, you probably have to move an entire state again and get a new job. Then the cycle probably resumes and some eldritch beast in a human flesh suit with no understanding of a human being will kick you out for whatever invented up reason, so you have to wait longer to instead buy your own house or land.
Then some border guard looking dude outside jurisdiction might come over and tries building a wall and checkpoint in your backyard without your consent. [Exaggeration on last bit, but FFS what are these numbnuts doing all the way up here even? It was many months ago on the way going to Arizona from Texas, and we got the whole "are you Americans" crap. Let's see, a car filled with so much stuff that we in the backseat got to sit on top of a hill, one is so buried you can't even see em but their head, it's like a clown car, then rolls up from deeper inland, you got your pissed off veteran relative in the driver seat yelling at em, a paranoid woman beside them, and in the backseat we got what looks like a cross between a traditional native American and Carrot Top. All speaking fluent English. With a car registered and licensed, and with an aggressive Chihuahua jumping from back to front seat over and over again. What do you think, clown?]

When you can be in a room filled with people, and yet still feel like you're standing alone in a void. Or if there is someone else there, they're in the same predicament you are so nothing progresses regardless. Or you have friends or someone, and then they get yeeted away by life. So you spend the rest of your free time using a Budget Phone™ that can only effectively use RPN, YouTube, and Google without having to wait fifty years or it fails to load. So you spend the rest of your time looking up current tech like prosthetics, and periodically playing as a persona or two on a forum to alleviate boredom. Sounds worse than it actually is, now that I reread it. But I think I'm done using general "you"sage.
But meh. Keep on marching and smiling at everything. We'll get a true meaning eventually. LEARN R O B O T I C S. Even if all that can be achieved is robot repair at worst. It'll give me incentive to get off my ass and more thoroughly enjoy the beautiful bits of the world again. BECOME AS ROBOTICISTS.
Initiate robo-salute.

it literally drives me up the wall when people burp really loudly without an ounce of shame 😭 i know, very specific, but i hate it so much. my dad always does that, open mouth and all and it makes me want to start screaming everytime.

another thing i absolutely hate is people who think they don't need to train their dog just because they're small. i've seen so many untrained demon chihuahuas in my life, i swear... just because your dog is tiny doesn't mean they don't have to be taught the basics!
 
I only really have one no-no rule. One major pet peeve and therefore the line you cannot cross.

1. honesty - do not under any circumstance lie to me
