What drives you nuts? What really pushes your buttons? Besides the obvious “people who buy rabbits and have no idea how to care for them”. Go ahead, rant away!!
This is what really grinds my gears:
-People who can’t drive
-People who talk on cells/text while driving
-People who stand in the aisle at the grocery store and chat with friends
-People with no common sense
-When I order coffee and it tastes like “poo”
-People who place classified ads and can’t spell
– Vain people
– Songs that say the same lyrics over and over and over
– Reality shows
– Celebrities
I’m sure I will think of tons more as the day goes on
-
Andi, I agree.
I was at rite aid yesterday, before my school orientation. I wanted some chips, pens, apple juice and these two guys decide to stand really close in back of me… I wanted to say “excuse me, why do you insist on standing so close to me????”
O.o
I’m happy nobodys in my school cafeteria. I’m stinking it up eating curry
-
Andi! LOL LoL!
Curry is yumlicious!!
People should mind their own business when it comes to food. They’re not eating it
I love sushi! Especially the shrimp tenpura
Oh, another peeve.
I’m sitting in the cafeteria talking to my bf on the phone and this girl with a booming voice starts talking really loud >.> …
Lotsa things get on my nerves I try to respect ppl but if they aren’t respectful to me, forget it. This lady was getting off the bus and there was another lady behidn her. She said “get off b****; hurry up!”
OMG
-
– People that say I’m really quiet when they first meet me. I’m sorry do you want me to dance on the table and yell?
– People that judge me and my family without really knowing us.
– Children that run around and are unsubervised and their parents
– People that joke about my rabbits…yes let me joke about cooking your children shall we?
– What people say about the rabbits when I’m at the fair….and people that stick their hands in the cage that don’t know anything about rabbits. I know my rabbits won’t bite me but I don’t always trust the rabbit knawing on the bar in a small cage.
– Stray cats that get in our yard…..enough said
– Wal-mart people (you know who they are haha!), I don’t like shopping their but the prices are better for some foods than other places.
– People that twitter or facebook when they’re in labor! Put the phone down geez! I’m always on facebook but there’s a line that should be crossed.
– People that put a million pictures of their kids and talk about how they’re “potty training” them or other TMI about parenthood. If I ever do that, someone smack me!
– How much athletes get paid…I don’t think they deserve all that money for throwing a ball around.
– When I call my husband or he calls me from work and someone goes up to him and starts talking and he has to let me go. Don’t you see he’s on the phone?! I get so mad when they do that, some of those guys have no manners at all there.
I’m sure I could go on forever but those are some I thought I’d share.
-
-My neighbor who blasts really weird music and is always using his chainsaw or hammer. Also his wife gardens in a bikini and she does not have a bikini body.
-My neighbor on the other side who is obsessed with birds and has at least a dozen bird feeders in her yard. There are always pigeons and doves in my yard, crapping on my car and psycho squirrels in our trees that never stop making noise.
Can I move to the country yet?
-
OOOOO, here is one:
-doing / saying stupid things on public transportation/public in general.
i don’t want to hear your rap music, thats why you wear head phones. i really don’t want to hear random german words being yelled out and people are staring at the idoit saying it Mimz, are you okay with chicken curry?
I like it to eat it with rice skibunny, I’m really quiet when people first meet me. But if I feel this vibe, I can be quite loud, laughing wise
-
– When people cough and don’t cover their mouths
– When people claim to love the country but want the president to fail because he’s not a member of their political party. When the president fails, the country fails!
– Antisemites, homophobes, racists, bigots, misogynists, xenophobes, and any other groups of people who hate others for being different
– When people leave their pets chained up outside all day in extreme weather, like summer heat, winter cold, or precipitation
– When people joke about eating our bunnies for dinner. Not cool.
– When people have their car windows rolled down and blast their music so loudly that your own car physically vibrates
– Abuse of power – I’ve had several bosses who recognized that I’m non-confrontational and then walked all over me
– Negative reinforcement, especially with children, pets, and employees. Criticism can definitely be given in a positive, constructive way, so why not give all criticism that way?
– When know-it-alls on the internet put down others whom they think are stupid, or bad at playing a game, etc.
– When parents yell at their children in public
– What a negative experience it is to travel by airplane nowadays
– When people sitting next to you on airplanes try to flirt with you… please just let me read my book in peace
– Handsy men, especially those who grab girls’ butts
– Those who still think that only crazy people seek therapy and mental healthcare
– When negligence exacerbates disaster (example: Orleans Parish Levee Board and the US Army Corps of Engineers)
– Home-wreckers. If someone is involved with someone else, you shouldn’t try to steal that person for yourself
– Irresponsible role models, such as famous singers who dress and act in a trashy way and then influence young women to do the same
– When people refuse to neuter or spay their pets and then let them outside unsupervised
– People who are constantly looking to blame others for their problems. Tobacco companies aren’t responsible for illnesses, and McDonalds isn’t responsible for obesity. People should take more responsible for their actions.
– When religious organizations discourage birth control, especially in developing countries where people have fewer opportunities for education and awareness.
– When people adhere to all of the beliefs of their politic party without question
– When one family group demands your undivided attention during a holiday, even though you have other sides of the family whom you need to see as well – father’s side, mother’s side, in-laws, grandparents, ,etc. It can put you in an incredibly awkward position where you have to make the choice of either offending the demanding party, or neglecting everyone else
– When people get angry after drinking too much
– The “drop by.” When people show up at your house unannounced.
– When people visit you and then try to change your house, such as moving your furniture around the way they think it should be
Phew! I need to stop… I feel kind of guilty now for having so many.

Oh I know how that is! I have on group that it’s always about them. They don’t realize that I have a family too. I don’t enjoy the holidays as much anymore because I have to split time between families (at several homes). I always grew up staying at the same house for holidays because we don’t have much family so we’d never go anywhere…so I get a little upset during the holidays…still getting used to it I guess.

i would just like to comment after lots of music, and clothing / style complaints.. that i do eenjoy really loud music, and like miss k&k says about the “Music that is about drugs, money, women, etc…. ” i do listen to that music. i think the style guys wear is kinda cool (they can get carried away though.. its not a compitition boys…)
now i understand some people think differently.. many people actually. and with that i have no problem
to each his own right? but i would also like to add it is they way / wher i was raised.. i’ve been around that type of atmosphere since i was about 4 or 5 so its what i grew up with. it makes me feel at home, with that i also had country since i was born so i’m a very rare mix <- anyways that was off topic a bit but my moral was : some people / teens / kids have been exposed to that since birth. so for them that type of thing can inspire them, and can also make them feel confertable. so i guess its a bit hard for some people who grew up in a different time and see things differently to look at it from my perspective. i know kids that their music is the only reason why they are still alive. these "rappers" if you call them that are an ispiration for some kids. When i was younger (before i understood the difference between males and females) i wanted to be like usher, and 50cent, 2pac, eminem, because that what inspired me. and after learning that i sing horribly.. thank you best friend.. and that male rappers generally are better than females i now have a new dream but its along the same aspect. all i’m saying is an open mind to stuff like that can give a whole new perspective.

Agreed. Songs about racism, sexism, drugs, violence, just really shouldn’t be a part of our society. Definitely the “Artists” shouldn’t be looked upon as “idols”. That is another thing that bugs me
Oh. Another one I remembered. Getting weird looks when buying feminine products. Like seriously. Only 50% of the population need them, stop looking at me funny when I buy them .Yeesh.
-
k&k i liked this one
*People who smell…Your going out in public-please put on deodorant..and you don’t need to wear 16oz of perfume!!!!! SOME of us are allergic!
just for the record i dont care at all about what you guys think about the style or what ever i like hearing your perspective
i was just givving mine, sorry if it came off in the wrong way. i really did like hearing what you guys thought of it. miss k&k now im interested, im going to go look that up.. and i do belive you -

Oh wait here’s another 2.People who assume I’m an imbecile because I work at the front desk. I choose to work this position because I still get to have contact with the patients, just not with their vomit/body fluids/GI issues/etc. I get paid to talk to people and make them feel at ease before they go in, and I’m good at it so I work the front desk. Not because I’m uneducated.
People who leave messages saying “hey it’s me”
Do you work at a Doctors office?

Nooo how could you? Lol I’m kidding, if it’s in a joking way it’s fine. But it gets to a point where it’s like too far you know? Like ha ha okay my dog is little but you’re an ass.
Or when it’s like flat out mean. Like I had this lady come up to me and my dog at a fair and say “No man will ever marry you with a dog like that”After my jaw hit the floor I asked why. She said because “no real man will live in a house with a purse dog”
Wow. A real man will love any pet you have, just because you do. My hubby adores our bunnies, and puts up with Hello Kitty invading the apartment… and he is a real man

Yes I do! I work at the coolest clinic ever. Instead of doctors and nurses I have acupuncturists, a chiropractor, several massage therapists, two nutritionists and 5 psychologists. It’s called Integrative Medicine. Integrative because we’re actually in University of Colorado hospital and not some sketchy massage parlor or something. 99.8% of my patients are awesome. I have exactly 3 patients out of my regulars that are irritating. Other than that, everyone else is awesome

Alina, I’m going to school in January to become an MA
I’m not sure what type of position I’d like to work afterward…I wish I knew what I wanted to do. I need to go back to school, but I can’t decide what I want to do. Anything I’m interested in doesn’t pay well or isn’t a lucrative career
