What's yours? I have so many it's really hard for me to pick just one. (LONG complaining post ahead...consider yourself warned.)

I want to strangle people who type "your" when they mean "you're." Such as, "Your really pretty!" or, "You're dog is really cute!" Ugh. Or when they don't use any punctuation at all, especially when they type "we're." It looks like "were", which doesn't make any sense. I'm not talking about typos, because I make too many of them to count, but some people seem to think it's correct.

I hate when people go 15 m.p.h. under the speed limit. No one actually wants to get anywhere, really. And I don't think that people who are too old to see the road should drive.

I hate it when you put off washing your extremely dirty car for 5 months, and when you FINALLY get it washed on a really sunny day, it pours. And, not when you're safely in your garage. Nope....it'd be when you're about 15 minutes away, and then it stops when you get inside.

I hate annoying laughs....the blonde laugh, for example. It makes you sound dumb, even if you're the smartest person in the world.

I'm having a really bad day, so I felt the need to vent, and get others' opinions at the same time. :) I'm sure there are 5 million other threads just like this, but oh well.

Sadly, very few people understand the difference between "your" and "you're."

My biggest pet peeve is cleaning up after other people. I HATE cleaning up other slob's dirty messes. I always picked up the yearbook room last year from slobs and it pissed me off everyday. People would leave lunch trays with food on them even in the room. It was ridiculous. At work, I hate how stupid kids go around taking books off the shelves and then just sitting them wherever. I have to go back and put them in the right place and it pisses me off when I have a lot of other books to shelve. :cuss: I HATE BEING A MAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel better.

When I was in elementary school I had one really big pet peeve. That would be when I would be asked by a teacher to rewrite something because she couldn't read it. I had a morning resource teacher in 5th grade who did this a few times. It really annoyed me. After several times over a few weeks or months, the last straw came when she asked to to rewrite a sentence not once, not twice, but THREE times. I threw a tirade because I was frustrated. I got sent to the principal's office but I explained my case. I think if she was reading it, she wasn't giving a lot of effort. I'm sure of this because two of the other resource teachers I had in the morning never had a problem with my handwriting. After that incident, she never asked me to rewrite something again.

One pet peeve of mine is when people correct other people's grammar on a public message board. Whenever someone does it I always say that this isn't school. Many people who come to these boards do so to get away from the hassles of school and work. If you can read and understand what the person is writing with some effort, then there isn't any reason. Also you should keep in mind that the person could be 1) Mentally challenged or disabled, 2) Someone that isn't an American, 3) Doesn't have English as their primary language or doesn't speak too much English, or 4) The person doesn't choose to have perfect typing for reasons which are of no concern to everyone but the individual.

I hate when people ask me for money. I mean, I know I'm rich, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna share it!

existence.

Well, I'm a big grammar person, so it really bugs me when people mispronounce simple words. For example...


especially (pronounced "expecially")
escape (pronounced "excape")
ask (pronounced "ax")
etcetera (pronounced "exetera")


Also, it drives me crazy when people use words that don't exist, like "irregardless." NOT A WORD! It's regardless. Is that so dang difficult?

Okay, I'm good.

EXpecially?? I've never heard it pronounced like that before at all! That's weird, I'll have to look at the dictionary for that one. The only people I have ever heard pronounce "Ask" "ax" are black people, but I guess that's just the way they say thing.


Now, my pet peeves are:

When people pronounce the word "Exit" like EGG-ZIT. I always say EX-IT, but I guess accordign to the dictionary it can be both!

People who smoke! Bothers me so much.

People who don't wear their seatbelts.

Finally, one that really bothers me. I work in a deli where we have a thing to pull numbers for your turn. Well, it bothers me a lot when a customer comes up to the deli counter there is abosolutely NO other customers by the deli and the person STILL takes a number even though I'm standing RIGHT in front of them and I can obviously help them! Sometimes I have to just quickly stop them and say "Please don't take a number, I can help you!" Cuz basically that's just wasting numbers, IMO. It's just so obvious that they don't need to take a number when no one else is around and I'm standing right there to help them!

my BIG pet peeve is when people say "Oh my God" or "Jesus Christ".... people need to say "Oh my GOSH" or "crap" or something...

cuss words really annoy me.... especially in front of little kids.

and people who spell names wrong!!!!!! it makes me so mad!

According to yourdictionary.com "Especially" is pronounced "ESpecially" and"Ask" is "Ask". ;) I have no idea where EXpecially is coming from!

I know...I don't get it, but almost everybody in my class says it like that. ohno: It drives me outta my mind!

My pet peeves are people who tailgate when they're driving.

People at work who constantly ask for smoke breaks, when the ones who don't smoke don't get a break like that

When driving people who wait till the last freaking minute to put on a turn signal, or suddenly break then decide to turn(with no turn signal)

:cuss:

This is going to sound weird, but I absolutely hate it when people don't store their media (CDs/DVDs) properly. I know a lot of people who, when done listening to a CD or watching a DVD, will just take it out of the player and just set it on its back or something like that, instead of putting it back in its proper jewel case.

This is one of the reasons why I hardly loan my stuff to friends.

I have way too many to list, but right now, it's doctors. They piss me off. I've seen way too many this week, plus I just got back from the damn ER where they think they know everything. Doctors need to go shove it.

One of mine is what we were talking about a few weeks ago when some people see a person doing something and because the person does it, they say, "That means <whatever>" when the meaning was never intended by the person doing the action. It's not EXACTLY a stereotype (Unless it gets out of hand and really catches on) .

Oh my god. Pet peeves. Don't even get me started.

I HATE bad grammar. People who use double negatives. For example, "Don't buy me nothing." That sentence would imply buying the person something. I also hate when people use the wrong contractions. For example, "That book don't go there." DOESN'T. COME ON PEOPLE! Then there's the "your/you're" and "their/there/they're" thing that is utterly annoying. And "ain't." I despise that word.

I also can't stand people who chew like cows. I do not want to hear your food as you chew, nor do I want to see it. It annoys me to no end when people decide to have a conversation with you as soon as they take a bite of food. Please swallow.

When you listen to music, please know the words.

I cAnT sTaNd wHeN pPl tYpE lYkE tHiS n XpeCt 2 b tAkEn SeRiOuSlY. Type like a human. Spell out full words. And for God's sake USE THE DAMN BACKSPACE AND CORRECT YOUR TYPOS.

I thought of some more.

I hate when people repeat themselves. It's not like we didn't hear you the first time.

People who can't mind their own business.

People who are too worried about what other people think of them that they try so hard to "fit in."

Agreed, and add dentists and therapists to that catagory as well.

Other pet peeves:
girls who play stupid like it somehow makes them more attractive
drivers who tailgate, pass you, and then promptly slow down
aggressive drivers in minivans
people who debate without having the faintest idea why they believe what they do- go ahead and disagree with me, but you better know your stuff

And make sure you can sing.

Another one I just thought of is popups. Is it just me or are there a lot of popups on SO now? Every few pages I get one. It's annoying the first 100 times and now it is insane.

A third one. When you go swimming in a public pool, I cannot stess this enough: please make sure your kids (if you have any) use the bathroom before they go into the water. Today I was in the middle of swimming laps at the Y and there was a fecal accident. They had to close the pool for most of the day. It inconveiniences the other people (like myself) who go there to hang out or swim laps.

Another pet peeve of mine is when people put words into my mouth and get on my case for "my" words. I hate it.

Same way at my work! they shouldn't be smoking in the first place anyway.

Originally posted by TheHappyBurgerMeister

Tell me about it :rolleyes: It's stupid, they're getting paid to smoke, so it's unfair to non smokers.

Bad customer service!! It just burns my blood. I know these people don't get paid very much. I know because I worked retail for alot of years. But I cannot stand getting waited on in a store and I'm as nice as I can be, and being treated like I'm a leper. If they hate their job so much, then quit and find something better, but don't take it out on me. I'll only be in front of you for a few minutes. Oh, and an even bigger pet peeve is when I'm told "I just work here". That pisses me off even more, but of course, I don't say anything. Maybe I should.

Maniac drivers who have no regard for their safety or anybody elses, especially people who have their kids in the car. I see too often of young woman speeding down the road and they have a baby in a baby seat in the back seat. Some mother. They just tear on down the road like there's no tomorrow. The thing that really gets me is that gas prices are higher than they've ever been and people still race down the interstate doing 85. Obviously nobody seems to understand that the faster you make your vehicle go, the faster your gas burns up. But, hey, it's their $1.90 a gallon.

KIDS who drink alcoholic beverages and people in general who do drugs!

1) WHY DO YOU DRINK? "Because I'm bored" is NOT an acceptable excuse. I don't buy that excuse.

2) WHY DO YOU DO DRUGS? "Because I can" -- ********.

There ARE better things you can do than just sitting around and getting yourself drunk or high! Reading a book, for instance.

I don't freaking care if you can be 18 in England or 19 in Canada to drink - you obey the stupid age limit regardless. This is the United States of America and this is what was decided. So -- people could drink when they were 18 in the 70's -- WAH-WAH-WAH. Not anymore, bub!

It sickens me to death that kids of today are in such a freaking hurry to grow up. ENJOY BEING A KID. You have ALL the time in the world AFTER you turn 18 (and 21) to drink, so DON'T drink when you're a kid. What is so ****ing cool about drinking? I don't get it, man. It's cool to get yourself ****ing drunk and get yourself in trouble w/ the police? Uh-huh. Sure, it sounds like a barrel of fun to me. :rolleyes:

And drugs - don't get me started. Meth, crack, whatever. Especially meth. Okay, you're just asking for a long-winded post, so I will NOT go on, but I can say this- I'm sick to freaking hell of all the meth busts I keep hearing about. Ohhhhhh, I made meth and I hoped I wouldn't get caught, but now I'm in major trouble with the police! I shouldn't have done that! WAH-WAH-WAH. :rolleyes:

Lastly, the high school I attended. OH GOOD GOD. I'm so thankful I graduated. I went to school w/ so many kids that just could NOT keep their freaking legs closed, no matter what. They were also the same ones that just couldn't keep their stupid hands out of their parents' liquor cabinets. Listen, kid. I came to school TO LEARN and to get my EDUCATION, not to listen to your sex stories. School is NOT your catwalk (for dressing up like a slut), school is NOT your stadium (for PDA's), school is NOT your babysitter and NONE of the kids and teachers in school are your personal maids. YOU clean up YOUR messes. If, for some reason you cannot clean up your messes, ASK A JANITOR. That's what they are there for.


Can you tell I used to live in a crappy little town full of freaks like that? :rolleyes:

I totally agree. And no offense to anyone, but that first one is so true.

Mine...

Drunk frat boys.

Sex-obsessed people.

People who drive to slow, drive like they want to kill everyone, people who won't let you in on the freeway, people who drive junk cars, tailgaters, dudes in big trucks, people who think I want to hear their music, so they play it really loud, teen drivers on cell phones, women in minivans...

People who double check everything you do because they don't trust you despite never having given them a reason for the distrust.
*coughMYBOSS'WIFEcough*

People who are just downright ignorant.

Human Resources Managers.

Computers that won't work.

Liars and backstabbers.

Zits.

People who use improper English when you just know they should know better.

Bad gas mileage.

Crushes.

Bad hair days.

People who throw recyclables away. I want to beat people up that throw soda cans away.

People that don't understand that depression/anxiety is a serious condition.

I agree with the first one, or just drunk people in general bothers me!

I have more!


Overweight (some VERY overweight) teenage girls who wear REALLY skimpy clothing! Actually, any teenage girl in really skimpy clothing bothers me. They look like whores. That's so annoying!

People who have useless conversations on cell phones in public places. I see it all the time at my work. People just have their phones glued to their heads nowadays! I would hate having to answer a phone all the time. I prefer a little thing called PRIVACY! It's like people hate to be alone nowadays.

one word: mullets!

the wind! I don't know why I just hate when it's windy!

Oh, I have millions more but I can't think of them now. I can get annoyed so easily! lol!

Okay, my biggest is homophobic church freaks. It's not that I don't like religious people. It's that I hate the people who go, "Oh my Gosh, he's gay, he's going to Hell for committing such a sin!!!!!!" That just makes me want to PUKE. Honestly. But I think I'll stop right now before I get too pissed.

Then of course, there's white kids who act like they're from the "ghetto". Now I don't know about you guys, but in Fayetteville, there is no ghetto. Sure, there are POOR people, but no ghetto. So these kids come into the mall, baggy pants, chains, jerseys, and stuff... and they're like, "Yo brotha, what's goin' down, foo?" and they ... UGH!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not implying that only black people live in the ghetto, but if you're white, and rich like they usually are... oh my GOD. I'm just going to stop before people accuse me of being racist.

My final one? Compulsive liars. My ex-best friend used to be the nicest person you can imagine. Well, she's changed. And now she lies about EVERYTHING. She lost one of her closest friends because of a lie. She cheated on her ex-boyfriend with our other friend (we'll call ex-boyfriend Bob and other friend Joe). Joe felt bad about it and told Bob, cos they were close friends too. Well, Bob got mad pissed off and confronted her about it. She TOTALLY denies it, to this day. Now, Joe is one of my VERY VERY best friends. I refuse to believe he'd make this up. He would NOT make something like this up. No way. She's lying about it. Then, her mom got re-married. Joe was forced to go to the wedding, even though she and him aren't friends anymore. Bob was picking Joe up from the wedding, so she FREAKED out. Her friend, who we'll call Jane, went outside to talk to Bob. She said, "If you have any feelings for *blank* still, any AT ALL, go talk to her." Supposedly, he got out of his car, headed towards the house, and Joe came out, so they left. Well, I asked Joe about it. He said that when he came outside, Bob was leaning up against the car, checking his voicemail on his cellphone. And that's only a TINY part of it.

Anyways, if anyone actually read this, they get a cookie.

I know...that really ticks me off. :nod:

I have another one:

I hate it when people use the term "nother," as in, "That's a whole nother story." You could say, "That's a different story," or "That's another whole story," but nother is not a word.

I know! What's with girls who have fat rolls or big butts that wear their clothes 2 sizes too small? Don't they realize that looks nasty?



3 more I thought of:

Sweating. I hate to sweat.

People who cling to the stearing wheel and drive like their car is going to get away from them. It's not a bulldozer...it's a car. :rolleyes:

People that drive 50 on the interstate. Everyone else is going 75...you're a danger to everyone!! If the interstate scares you, DON'T GET ON IT.

How do these people get licenses?

people with poor manners, especially from men..
People who are pushy
People who eat with their mouths open
and women with uncontrolable children....

Ugh...this too. People who water their lawns in the middle of a drought. What, your damn lawn is more important that humans and pets? LET IT DIE. It's called going dormant. Damn...I want to beat the bloody hell out of those people.

Another one I thought of:

People who drive and talk on cell phones, I hate that. They are a hazard to me on the road. Also like if Im in line in a drive thru or something, and someone's too busy talking on their phone, and when they get to the window the cashier has to stand their waiting to get their attention :cuss:

I'm the same way with being a grammar freak.

I think what most English people find most annoying about Americans is how we add the "z" instead of the "s" they're used to. i.e. recognize/recognise, realize/realise, etc....

Anyway, my pet peeves are:

-Cellphones, cellphones, and what was it again...? Oh yeah.. cellphones! Not the objects themselves but how so many people over- and misuse them! Socializing while driving, in the restaurants, in public! Argh... :mad: Die, cellphones, die!!!

-Drivers who don't follow the road rules. I can't tell you how many times people don't even use their car blinkers and don't pay attention. Then, when you honk at them letting them know, they pull out their little middle finger! :rolleyes:

I can go on, but I don't wanna make this such a long post! :eek:

I can bitch and moan about 74873289 things, but there are only 2 that really bug me.


1. People who dont use directionals. OMGAAA you have no idea how friggan annoying it is. Even if I can tell at a stop sign which way they are going, who cares. We have directionals for a reason. When Im driving behind someone and they dont use it, I beep. Its random and they probably have no idea why Im honking at them, but its better than chucking my bobble head at their car.

2. People who sing to music. It drives me up a wall. Seriously, I get all Kujo on your ass. Ill be driving along, then my friend will decide to start singing to the song and the anger is just fueling up inside of me. Then I just freak out. I turn off the music and Ill just scream 'STFU!!!!!!' Then I feel all bad for flipping out. But it isnt like they dont know I hate that. I want to hear the music, not you. Its like nails on a chalkboard for me.

Do you mean blinkers? Lol, I never heard of them being called directionals before! Anyways, I agree that is really annoying, BUT what annoys me even more is when people DO use their blinker but then forget to turn it off when they turn and they have it left on for like a mile after! You're just like screaming "PLEASE turn it off!". A lot of old people seem to do that!

Guys. Guys are my pet peeve right now.

Ditto. Besides, in the parts business, they're known as turn signal switches, so it's natural I guess. Anyway, people who don't use their turn signals piss me off too!

I think it's a distinction between North and South.

Anyway, I've noticed that down here people seem to just leave them on, instead of only turning them on to turn and then turing them off, but up there people don't do that. Of course there are the people down here also that never turn them on, which is just as bad as keeping them on all the time. Oh well, I guess some people just dont' think about using their turn signals/blinkers.

I call them turn signals, sometimes blinkers. And that is one thing that definately gets on my nerves. It doesn't take any time to turn the damn things on. Same goes for turning them back off.

Other pet peeves:

Rude, obnoxious behavior

Egos/Arrogance

People who can't (or won't) remember their manners

I don't know....I think it's more of a regional thing than anything else. ;)

My biggest pet peeves:


1. rude and pushy people
2. long lines
3. people who talk bad about something when they have never seen it or tried it before

*sigh* I feel ya...

Greedy People
People Who Act Like If They Dont Win A Sports Game The World Will Blow Up
Long lines
People who interupt me when I talk

I thought of a couple others.

1. When you meet people and they don't make the effort to remember your name, even just for that short little conversation. "Hi, I'm Bob. Blah blah blah." "What'd you say your name was?"

2. Girls whose whole existence revolves around their boyfriend. Get over it.

3. People who repeat words twice. Aka..."cool cool." Or, "fun fun."

4. Guys.

Arrogance- This kills me more than anything

Fat girls who wear short shirts and skin tight pants

Gum Popping

Scrapping Finger Nails against a wall

People that stare

People who complain

Long Lines

People who think they know it all

Originally posted by *Marilyn Monroe*

I say that. :o

People who don't appreciate The Beatles genius!omg: :eek2:


;) :lol:

People who don't show up for their jobs and have bad excuses when they don't! (see my thread "Showing up for work is important!")

When you're at the gym or the Y and women walk around completely butt naked in the locker room. Ya know, just blow drying their hair, putting on make up in front of the mirror with absolutely NO clothes on. HELLO! this is NOT a nudist colony!

Well if they don't like it, they can lump it. Take it down the road, and dump it.

Mean people
Racists
People who think that they are better than thou
Dirty stuff
People who aren't considerate of other people' feelings
Many, many more though.

I have many many many pet peeves. This is a good oppurtunity to vent so I will:

1. People who are so obsessed with being cool and bling bling that they actually refuse to shop anywhere that carries clothing items that cost under $40. People are actually like this at my school. Losers.

2. People who put their cigarettes out in their food. It makes me want to vomit.

3. When my brother drinks the last soda. (Actually, maybe I can't really talk here because I get annoyed when he eats or drinks anything in the house. I lived apart from him for a few years and I just can't stand having to share stuff with him again.)

4. People who say 'holla'

5. When people add 'literally' to an exaggeration. Like, "I was so surprised I literally jumped out of my socks." Oh really? One time this guy said "I was literally shi**in' bricks." I bet that was painful.

6. When rap stars make energy drinks. (There are currently quite a few, Lil John has Crunk, Nelly has Pimp Juice, Ice-T has Liquid Ice. I don't know about you but when I want liquid ice I just drink a glass of water.)

7. When J.Lo gets married. It pisses me off.

No offense to anyone. :D

Pet Peeves:

1. When people don't swallow their saliva - they launch it from their mouths like heat-seaking Cruz missiles, either on purpose (hock a lugie) or in the process of speaking. Hello, I want the news, not the weather report.

2. When people wear socks until they're drenched in perspiration and reek of bodily odor - and the wearer doesn't even notice nor care about the foul stench.

3. When people refuse to keep their pants up with long strips of material and a buckle - otherwise known as a belt. What's crackin, bud?

4. When people pick various things in public: wedgies, noses, pimples, scabs, flowers, it doesn't matter!

5. When people wear letters on their butts - like Hottie on their gym shorts, when they weigh like 1,000 pounds. But hey, on people like that, at least the letters let us know what's the head, and what's the tail. So to speak.

6. When preppy people switch between preppy and other styles. It's so annoying. There are different forms of prep: punk prep, skate prep, goth prep (what is goth prep, anyway? heavy, glittery black makeup?); compromise. Or just stay a prep - if you are a prep, it probably means you couldn't be a goth in the first place.

7. When people wait for parking spots. We were sitting in the parking lot at Wal-Mart and two cars were waiting for the same parking spot: one SUV, one sport car. The parking spot sucked. Where's the logic in that?

And finally,

8. J.Lo. in general.

1. People who dont use directionals. OMGAAA you have no idea how friggan annoying it is. Even if I can tell at a stop sign which way they are going, who cares. We have directionals for a reason. When Im driving behind someone and they dont use it, I beep. Its random and they probably have no idea why Im honking at them, but its better than chucking my bobble head at their car.

2. People who sing to music. It drives me up a wall. Seriously, I get all Kujo on your ass. Ill be driving along, then my friend will decide to start singing to the song and the anger is just fueling up inside of me. Then I just freak out. I turn off the music and Ill just scream 'STFU!!!!!!' Then I feel all bad for flipping out. But it isnt like they dont know I hate that. I want to hear the music, not you. Its like nails on a chalkboard for me.


Those two go for me too, Also...

Gum snapping
whistling
staring
People who like playing 20 questions/Nosy people.

Here are things that bother me:

People with no manners (Disneyland is filled with them)
Irresponsible/forgetful people
Potheads
People who take everything so seriously. Like creating fake journals, cutting my wrists, or kissing dog ****. I'm gonna do whatever the hell i want. It's my arms/mouth, my life.
Sexists, a.k.a all males.
Perverts (^same applies)
Anti-Avril people
Psychiatrists


There's probably a lot more but yeah...

Here's how I feel about PETA. If they would take their extremist ways and go jump in a volcano, the world would be a better place.

Here's how I feel about people who cheat on their spouses. May they all have their organs ripped out without anesthesia.

Here's how I feel about prostitutes. Go get a real job, you lazy whore.

I despise that annoying yellow Sponge...

The thing is, IMO, If the writers had the guts to actually try something outside the sickening classic Nicktoon mold, Spongebob, from the two cartoons I watched before nausea set in, could have the potential to be Rocko-level Brilliant. But, it resorts to such mindless drivel that it makes me want to wretch.

I've never watched one that long. Two minutes into it and I was ready to throw things at the TV. Spongebob is like the Louie Anderson of cartoon characters when it comes to me wanting to damage my TV.

One too many shots to the head over the years left me with a high tolerance for dealing with garbage.

Seriously, the show smacks of the writers more concerned with getting drivel out onto the schedule, with minimal regards to quality. The show COULD be written well enough to be a decent enough 'toon. But, instead, the writers cater to people that apparently have Faaaaar different tastes than I, and you, have.

Hey now I wacth Spong Bob if there's nothing else on.
Anyways Parking lots is one of my pet peeves people see you trying to get in a parking space,but they will park in it.
People who passes up car when there going down the road and they want to pass all of them up.
Also people who complain about life in general,enjoy life you only live once.Oh yes and some preachers.

What I meant is when there's a lot of cars in line of a funeral and there driving on the road some people have the nerve to pass or try to pass them all at once.

i also hat his girl in my school who wears the skimpy clothes you guys were talking about and also wears sunglasses on even the cloudiest day, and walks into school like shes a queen or something.:rolleyes:

I also think they're so much more interested in shoving every product known to man with Spongebob's face on it onto store shelves than concentrating on the show itself. The show always seems to take a backseat to the product promotion in these cases.

says me, who sits here on her Powerpuff Girls blanket, with her Powerpuff Girls hair tie around her wrist, looking at her Powerpuff Girls calendar, and drinking out of her Powerpuff Girls travel cup.

I think that's the stupidest thing ever. Everyone driving has to put their life on hiatus because some people are unnecessarily driving slow. What if someone is bleeding to death and on the way to the ER with no other route there? Should they just die instead of breaking a tradition with the funeral of someone they don't know?

-people who can't drive
-people who can't talk well (bad grammar and slang)
-people who try to use slang but end up sounding stupid
-people who can't spell, including names (typo's don't count)
-the fact that people can't even go outside and enjoy nature without dying from the Westnile virus or bug poisening
-bad hygiene (girls who don't shave under their arms, nasty hair, ugly hair styles, boys who think it's OK to stink)
-People who suck their thumb and then want to touch your stuff
-people who complain about things, but they don't do anything to solve the problem (kids at school complain about how dirty the school is but make the mess)
-girls who try to flush their sanitary napkins down the toilet, because they're too embarrassed to have to throw it away when there are other girls in the bathroom.
-ghetto people
-people with bad manners (farting and burping in front of everyone, but are too immature to admit it was them and don't excuse themselves; people who sneeze or cough w/ out covering their mouths; rude people; people w/ bad table manners)
-people who curse because they think it makes them sound tough, but it really makes them look like idiots because they can't think for themselves.

That is ridiculous. I know I too was embarrassed when I was in JH and on my period, but I wasn't stupid enough to flush the pad down the toilet. Hide it in your damn purse if you're that embarrassed.

One of my pet peeves is when people watch me work.
I'm in the construction biz, and whenever we're working in a public place, people passing by stop and watch me dig or paint, or use a cutting torch, whatever. It's even worse when they ask questions:
What are you guys doing?
Pouring concrete huh?
What kind of drill is that?

Seriously folks, how would you like it if I went to your office and stood in front of your desk and stared at you for twenty minutes, peppering you with questions?

What are you working on?
What kind of computer is that?
Who are you talking to on the phone?

I may be pretty, but I'm not on display in a department store window. I'm not hanging on the wall in a museum. Please move on; you're holding up the line.

*Marilyn Monroe* I LOVE LOVE LOVE your avatar. BEST movie ever. I can recite the movie, songs and dance routines. LOL

I remember in 12th grade, I was walking back up the hill from gym to the lockers with my friend and obviously I had my period. Well, it was a steep hill (steep enough for me anyways -.-) and all of a sudden I felt all hell break loose. I had to get dressed really fast and go to the nurses office to go home and change. There were a bunch of people in the office waiting and I told my mother she had to get me right away. Shes all.. you sick? And Im like no. And she kept asking so finally Im like MEANGYA I HAVE MY PERIOD AND I NEED TO CHANGE.

Well, it was a steep hill (steep enough for me anyways -.-) and all of a sudden I felt all hell break loose. I had to get dressed really fast and go to the nurses office to go home and change. There were a bunch of people in the office waiting and I told my mother she had to get me right away. Shes all.. you sick? And Im like no. And she kept asking so finally Im like MEANGYA I HAVE MY PERIOD AND I NEED TO CHANGE.
:lol: I don't get how it happens to some people so fast. i always read stories about girls who stand up and see a huge red spot on the couch they were sitting on. i would have had to sit on the couch for days for that to happen. O_O

My period can get really heavy though. Overnight maxi with wings are a saving grace. But even those does always protect me. Sometimes I have to wear 2 or 3 to bed and even thats not enough. Though it hasnt been that bad in over a year, which is good. My period is a pain in the ass. Mine lasts about 10-12 days. First 3 or 4 are like, really heavy, then its normal. But yea, 10 days usually, thats how its always been.

The first and second days are the worst for me.. it lasts for about 5-6 days.

OMG...that sucks. Mine's usually 5-6. It used to be 7 or so, but it's actually gotten shorter.

Our uteruses (or, is it uteri? lol) could be twins. That's exactly how I am.

omg...I seriously hate that too. I get stared at a lot in public, especially when I'm in my car. And it's usually scuzzy looking Mexicans...why, I don't know. But I hate being stared at. I may be pretty, but I'm not on display in a department store window. I'm not hanging on the wall in a museum. Please move on; you're holding up the line.

People that stare are just plain rude.

OMG :faint: I feel so sorry for you! Mine are always at least 3 days. 4 days, tops. And since about 2002, they've been really light (altho the 1st day is always heavy)...I had no cramps for a while too but they're coming back with a vegenance. :o

Try having it for 7 months nonstop. That happened my senior year and I almost didn't graduate because of it. I missed 42 days of school because I was so tired from the blood loss and being anemic. I used to fall asleep in class by the end of the day. The Dr put me on birth control pills and I had to take them every 4 hours and becauseof the hormones my uterus started to contract and I was in so much pain I wanted to kill myself. My gyno said they were similar to labor pains. Trust me I'll never complain about my period again and I'm still on the pill just once a day though.
The best thing to come out of this was my stupid brother thought that Kotex was another brand of DRANO (the stuff you unclog sinks and pipes with.! :lol: Stupid ass LOL

Man...7 months? That's horrible.

I have another one:

when girls change the subject on a thread and suddenly start talking about their periods!! J/K!!!

But I do think it's weird that this thread about Pet Peeves suddenly turned into a discussion about our periods.:lol:

I'm scared of tampons! I've tried to use them but they just won't work. Maybe when I'm older, I hope! Geez, I can't believe this December it will be 10 years since I got my first period. Crap, that's a long time. I was only 11!

omg: You gotta be kidding me! They're COMFY. You don't feel a thing! Amy's right, they're CLEAN. Plus, if you get Tampax, everything in it is paper - the wrapper, the applicator...so you can flush it all down the toilet, like toilet paper :)

I started using them at 14 and haven't turned back.

Why r we talkin about periods? :lol:
I haven't even had mine yet.

We're going to try to get back on subject. :crazy:

President Bush enforced a new law for every online forum to include period discussions, haven't you heard about that?
