Thought of another one...people that take their dogs to the fireworks.
Why do they think this is fun for the poor dogs? The loud noise, crowds of people, bright lights, can't be fun for the dogs ears or eyes.
I also wonder why people will bring their dogs into crowds such as parades, outdoor concerts etc. Do you ever see the dogs laying back enjoying these events? I know I haven't. They always look worried, stressed, hyped up, and anything but happy.
People, there are many great places to take your beloved pet, but think about if the dog will enjoy where you are taking them before you drag them out to the crowds.

Pet Peeve: Neighbors that will shoot off fireworks, and make loud noises all night tonight because it's the 4th of July.
Neighbors that do that and it isn't the 4th of July. They do it on nights when most people have to get up to work early. My husband has to get up at 3 am and he hates that. Isn't there a noise ordinance after 10 pm?
A few neighbors seemed miffed one night when I yelled out that it was late and people had to get up early. They looked over and said, "What???" Well, duh, not everyone gets 4 days off for the 4th. No brains sometimes.
One year my neighbor got burns in his hot tub cover because of the stuff falling. I worry about the fireworks falling on our canopy on the deck and starting a fire.

People that take dogs on trails meant for biking and walking, but don't pick up the dog poo. It's worse when the trail is in the woods or a field where if they had to, the owner could fling the poo off to the side where no one walks. There are signs that say pick up after the dogs.
Even in our neighborhood you go for a walk and people let their dogs crap right in the road where everyone walks. Even on the sidewalks sometimes.
Last year one of our neighbors lit off fireworks that dropped big hot cardboard pieces all over our house, deck, cars, yard. I couldn't believe he was getting away with this display in his back yard. Some looked the size of the smaller fireworks the city shoots off. At one point the firetruck showed up from a complaint but as soon as he left the guy started up again. Apparently he must be friends with some of the city workers.
Well, another year and I will live through another night of worrying that he will burn us out of house and home again.

oh yeah...this is the same wonderful neighbor that lets his dog wander over here all the time to dig into my garbage when I put it out each week, and bark at me when I try to come outside of the house and won't let me move, and terrorizes my yard and poos in it. Then he goes back home.

Take your camcorder and tape the dog at his best. Make a copy of the tape and give it to your neighbor. Let your neighbor know about any dog leash laws etc and let them know they're only a phone call away from loosing their dog.
Why is that some fat people had to wear the tightest clothes possible? I've seen heavy girls at the bar dressing like they are hot and acting like they are the hottest thing on the planet when all everyone else sees is the fat rolls bulging out of the top of the jeans. Wear a longer shirt please! Muffin tops aren't sexy.
Pet peeve: When I read a recipe wrong and goof it up. The cake I made the other day called for 1-1/2 sticks of butter and most recipes measure butter in cups. So I added 1-1/2 cups which is 3 sticks. I was thinking when I was making it that 3 sticks is a lot of butter. The cake turned out anyway, but I just added a whole lot of extra calories. That explains why the cake is lighter brown than the picture. The funny thing is that the cake is more crumbly than box mix would be, but you would think it would be moist and greasy.
When I go back later and see that I typed something wrong on a post and end up looking like a doofus that can't spell. My brain and fingers don't work at the same speed. My brain is ahead of my fingers typing.
People that keep you waiting, not just once in a while because things can happen. It's the ones that do it every time. I used to have a friend like this that would never be ready when I picked her up to go out. She would make me wait at least a half hour in the driveway. Even if I showed up late on purpose, she still made me wait. She also was the one that never would be ready to go home at the end of the night. She would quickly order a drink when you announced it was time to go, then you'd be stuck at the bar longer. She was just a pain the butt no matter what.
and heavy set people wearing the tightest of clothes so almost everything is sticking out
Agreed... They should stop making plus size hip huggers & plus size women should realize that just because they make them, doesn't mean they look good! If you have fat rolls please know that no one wants to see them sticking out from the bottom of your tank top... well i don't want to see it anyway.

I actually know a few guys who think those muffin tops are sexy lol gross i know!!
We have had that convo & i've also had the convo at work & some of the guys swear it's a turn on... takes all kinds i guess.
Personally i don't know how anyone can look at a fat roll & think it's sexy... I'm not skinny, but i know how to dress myself.
I've never heard a guy say that, but I guess most would keep that to themselves.
That's what it is, all about dressing in what looks good on a person. There are things that don't look good on me that I wish I could wear sometimes, but if it doesn't look good, I'll pass.
I also think that plus size women can and do look nice when they consider what they are dressing in. Accept that you are more of a woman 'size wise' than a size small woman and dress according. It is gross to see women trying to be what they are not. If you are a size 18 don't think you can dress looking like you are a size 3. lol Tight clothes actually accentuate the pounds and make you look heavier. No one wants to look 'fat'.

Another pet peeve is MEN that wear tight short shorts the old fashing jogging type of shorts with shoes on lol or worse yet, over weight men that walk around without a shirt on!!! Gross!!
We talk about women wearing to tight clothing and showing their rolls, it's worse to see men with huge belly's with no shirt on so all the fat just jiggles when they walk..and even worse..if it can get worse, is men that look like they need a bra on and walk around without a shirt on!!

The long pinky nail (when the rest are short) is an 'accessory' (so to speak) of a drug user, it's the first thing that i think when i see it. A chemist here has the long pinky nail & everyone calls him candy nose... he thinks it's funny, i think it's dumb.
When people wear flip flops & dont have clean feet or have nasty toe nails... just gross!
Pet Peeves: Men that have long fingernails, or a long pinky nail.... is that a pet peeve, or just something that grosses me out. lol
OK, how about men that can't seem to keep their fingernails groomed. That's more like a pet peeve? lol
Men with dirty fingernails are gross. Get a scrub brush or nail brush to clean under nails. Don't try to tell me it's a stain either and doesn't come off. Then use a cleaner made for getting the dirt off. The stores are filled with all sorts of cleaners. How can they eat with those hands?
Men with long toenails. Trim those cheese collectors off please.
Employers that call you or interview to get your hopes up or make promises and don't keep them. Ones that don't let you know the status of the job after you interviewed with them. I've had places that won't even return a call when you ask if they made a decision yet. What's so hard about saying a yes or no to the question. I think you have the right to know what's going on after the interview and should be treated just as good as they would a client. When places blow you off or are rude, why would you want to work for them?
Recruiters that you have to keep calling all the time to remind them to find you a job. They gladly take your resume and make you spend all this time filling out online info or other paperwork, then completely ignore you. This isn't just now with this economy, but even in the past it has been bad. I've dealt with a number of job placement agencies and I can't say I recommend a single one. Manpower was about the only one and didn't forget about me.
Can you tell I'm fed up with the whole job hunt thing today?
One thing that irks me is when you go on a website and your cursor turns into an object that follows you everywhere. Oh that really annoys me for some reason!
I remember once on an cat site where my cursor turned into a cat. I know it's meant to be 'cute' and I am all for fun, but I really just get annoyed with that for no reason. lol
All I ask is to leave my little cursor arrow thing alone. It's not cute to have some 'thing' following me around the page. I will get off the site to rid myself of this nuance.

Another thing that annoys me: Flash animations with no "skip Flash intro" link. You want to see what's on the site and bam you are hit with watching some intro. Either put a skip choice on it, or leave it off since I will leave the site otherwise.

Oh I'm on a roll now....another irky thing is when you are on site and you want to purchase something and after shopping you find out that you have to fill out all your info, credit card etc, BEFORE they will give you a shipping charge and final payment. That's just wrong. I want to know how much I'm going to get hit with as far as shipping and if there is a handling charge etc. before I give out my info. That irks me.

Sites that require you to sign up and become a member before you get to see any of the topics/forums. I can understand why you have to sign up and become a member if you want to take part of posting but why hide everything so a person can't check it out before they decide to become a member.
Another annoying thing, signing up to become a member and then not be able to do anything until you get an 'OK' to be part of the group and then having to wait until the next day before you finally hear back. By that time I'm off surfing somewhere else. Make it fast and quick or don't require it.
