Other Tell us about your pet peeves!

I have my faith, which I choose to keep to myself and those I'm close to. I don't like when overly religious people think their beliefs, should be my own. Or people who never think they are wrong.

Lastly, those unable to have a civil discussion and resort to name calling, etc.
 
This aligns with Chained Echoes, I have a huge pet peeve of anyone who thinks they are above it all, right , or know it all. I certainly detest myself when I do this enough - goodness gracious. I'm so happy I'm someone who doesn't know everything makes mistakes countless times a day and am always learning something.

Sometimes the always learning part is annoying but at least I'm doing it. I'm accepting I often know nothing and if I do it's so terribly wrong. That's okay.

I feel you on that peeve
 
I don't understand why people, if they don't understand something, just don't ask for it to be explained instead of coming in hot. A bit of civility goes a long way.
 
Some people have some really weeeeird reactions to hearing world-shaking news, and I have a hard time wrapping my head around it lol
When I got leukemia and my family and I had to spread the word about it, there was a diversity of reactions
Like a good friend bringing up how someone they knew died of leukemia
Or sending a letter to me about their dog with cancer
Or going on about how healthy their new vegan lifestyle is
Or trying to come up with something I did wrong in my lifestyle to bring this upon myself, like... not having enough milk? lol
I had someone online call me a self centered crybaby for not wanting people to shave their heads for me 😐

Obviously these all vary in weirdness, and a lot of them are well intentioned
I get it's hard to grapple with deadly circumstances but dang
Still peeves me, deep down XD
(Pretty outdated vent over)

Lack of communication.

I planned a roleplay fandom pairing i have been craving so hard that i couldnt find anyone for finally. We talked for hours last night and plotted so much out. Found out i was blocked afterward. No communication. No discussion. No expression of feelings.

I dont normally let ghosting effect me but i am on the verge of tears rn because of this specific one. I was so excited beyond belief. And i know i probably wont find a partner as enthusiastic as her for this plot and pairing. It feels like there's a pit inside me and like I'm going to be sick.

For anyone reading this - Just please communicate. It's hard to confront people with your feelings esp if theyre negative but it's much better than hurting someone.
 
My hugest peeve is social manipulation. I have a really difficult time when anyone uses the ego/emotion to propel an argument or image.
Believe me, I even peeve myself when I do this but I quickly adjust my thinking to being a constructive one. Because as Helen Keller put it best. Self-pity is our worst enemy, and if we yield to it, we can never do anything wise in the world.

I think this makes a lot of sense. Helen could no become successful when her anger took control of everything she did. Surrendering to anger gave her a completely new perspective on life. She learned how to : sign, speak, lecture. An amazing person in history.

Perhaps this is a bunch of ramble but it's a peeve transformed into a bit of a philosophy for me.
My peeve of social manipulation and the ego has made me very aware on when it's activated in myself and others and learning how to step away from it.
When it's being a nasty loser.

I can’t wrap my mind around this. Some one making it about their friend and another saying you brought this onto yourself. Sorry Daisie, that you had to deal with that while going through treatment. Wow some people are just.. wow stay classy.

-hugs-

The first one, I don't think it was as bad as it sounded. The guy who talked abt the kid who died from leukemia WAS a really good dude, I just think that when he heard the news, he did a search through his brain and automatically pulled up whatever experience he had with it, lol
I mean, it was still hurtful, but... it's a little better knowing it was nothing more than a brain short XD
We just don't handle the idea of death well, I think.
 
I hate when people are rude and/or condescending to customer service representatives. If a service person can't help you, chances are they aren't trying to be annoying or deliberately obtuse; they might be confused, or they simply cannot help you without putting their job at risk. People are just trying to get by. It costs nothing to be kind.
 
discord rp's. I just can't :< nor the discord OOC. And it's not because I don't HAVE it, it's only for private / IRL use. And people who don't have it can't roleplay either 😭

Maybe you already considered this, and I do apologize to bother if you did, but you can have multiple discord accounts if you use different emails. You could make an email specifically for the separate discord account.
 
I preferred not though, it's such a hassle logging in and out especially not all my devices have the app anyway

Well, provided the RP isn't too fast-paced you could use a browser window. So stay logged in on the app with your main account, but on the browser stay logged into your alt. This way you could have a second account without having to log in and out.

that still doesn't help my second reasoning for others

but, yeah thanks, but I know that ^^

Alright, fair enough. It's a pity but everyone's got their own preferences. Sorry to bother and for what it's worth I hope you find yourself some great partners and RPs :)
 
My biggest pet peeve, without a doubt, is when people find one person saying something that they don't like and then act like whatever that person said is somehow an prevalent idea in society.

I'm just so tired of watching people saying shit like "I can't believe we aren't allowed to do [X] anymore" when all they base that idea on is a single tweet with a whopping 5 likes. Or worse, acting like disagreeing with the aforementioned tweet is somehow a brave stance.
 
When someone asks you to explain/give information about something and then, as you are in the middle of doing exactly that, constantly interrupts you, making it impossible for you to actually impart said information, and then they go 'I don't understand!'. I mean, if you would just let me finish a damn sentence, then maybe that wouldn't be an issue -.-
 
The stupidity of some people is truly astonishing.
 
There is no reason to ever be on speaker phone in public. At least get headphones or earbuds. But you shouldn't be broadcasting both sides of your phone conversation to the entire world.

This is particularly egregious since I work in a hospital and I have known visitors to call their insurance provider in the lobby after or before getting a lab procedure and just giving away all their personal details to the full lobby. I have asked if I should approach them and ask them to cut it out and been given indifferent answers. I've compared notes with friends who work at different hospitals and it's a thing that happens elsewhere as well.

We have quiet rooms. You don't need to tell the world about how your dick is weird and then announce your social security and routing numbers
 
When people dont apologise for being a trash bag. Like I could stomach most toxic bull if I get an apology. It is not to say I am right or you are wrong but these days people seem so incondiderate. If you are an absolute horrible experience for someone ; you might just be that persons last experience.

I dispise anyone who can not have an open mindset and it often has me butting heads. Mostly, because those fuelled by needing to judge others are baffled why I dont hop on the judge wagon with them. I refuse to judge someones character unless it is substantially justified. I refuse to be a part of mainstream of hate. In any sense. Its too exhausting.

I just dont have the time energy or stamina for it.
