    I really hate when people go out of their way, or modify what they would normally say to include certain words or phrases, just because those words or phrases are the new popular thing to say. Examples would be "Selfie" instead of just saying "Picture" or random phrases such as "YOLO" or "Awesome Sauce", or how everything is described as "Epic" now. It makes me cringe and feel dumber for having been present to hear it. Doubly horrible when this is done on TV by reporters or actors.

    That's epic!

    I think my all time pet peeve is people who speed up and slow down. I know, your cruise control is broke, but damnit, why do you have to notice when I'm halfway past you, then forget just as I get back over behind you???
    I never forget when you're behind me! :gheyhi:

    My pet peeve is that everytime I send naked pics to Mandy Moore, I just get letters from her attorneys.
    I mean, how fair is that?

    When somebody says they will be there or meet you at a time both agreed to and are late... If I tell you I will be somewhere or meet you I will be early.. ALWAYS ! I hate waiting on people , I have even left before because of people being late... If you don't care enough to be on time then it ain't worth my time to wait...

    I've been driven crazy buy trying to shop for healthcare (NOT health insurance; I'm talking about actually visiting doctors).

    I wanted some vaccines before traveling overseas. They couldn't tell me how much that would cost. Nobody could tell me how much that would cost. It's a ridiculous system. They perform this service on a regular basis, but they don't have a fixed price. I'm on a high deductible plan, so I'm very interested in the first $ 7k of costs (and vaccines had better stay well under that). But I got the vaccines last year, and I still don't know what I will have to pay.

    My biggest pet peeve...

    Typically, I'm not the snacking type, but every so often I'll open the cabinet to get something to snack on. I find something (a regular sized bag of chips), open it, and find THREE FREAKING CHIPS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE BAG!!! This really pisses me off. I mean, the last person couldn't eat the last three chips! No, they put the bag back and let someone else have their dreams crushed. Same with breakfast cereal, if you don't want the three spoons full of cereal, then just throw it out with the damn box!

    When I am waiting at a stop light and people pull up behind me right on my bumper. I am looking in the rear view mirror thinking the jack ass is not going to stop. I always leave 1/2 car length to the car in front of me.

    Oh, you betcha! I always do that, and I'm ready to goose the gas and get off to the side. I've actually had to use that; SCREECH CRASH CRASH CRASH! Hit the gas at the right moment and all I got was a little bump on my bumper. I drove away; four others didn't.

    My biggest peeve of late is when you hand someone your cell phone and say "look at this picture". They scroll thru all your pictures.

    Whenever a person hands me their phone and says "look at this picture", I figure it's implied that they really want me to look at all their pictures.

    Some one else's mail being delivered to my house. Keeps me up at night wondering where my NFA paperwork is being delivered to.

    LOL, This made me laugh when reading this.... My daughter would use the last bit of toilet paper and leave a empty roll and that always made me... Eerrrrr, so reading yours reminded me of when she was young and lived at home... Thx good memories, she's all grown up now and married and has here own kids and I hope they do the same to her when they get older... lmao
