Pet Peeves/Everyday Things that Make you CRAZY! Please Join Me.

I'm right there with you on this one!!

It has taken me 3 years to get my dh to agree to get a new oven b/c I wanted a double oven and he doesn't want to replace anything until it's busted!

I finally won 3 weeks ago and paid a small fortune for a new one....had it installed and it is busted! The irony....right?

Been leaking gas in my house for 3 weeks! Today it gets repaired....guy leaves....I start a meatloaf and guess what.....THE WHOLE HOUSE SMELLS LIKE GAS!

Now we need to order a part to fix it....um....you already said you fixed it!

At this point....I politely (and firmly) told my "salesman" (order taker) to get it out of my house and get me a new one!

Dh is laughing and saying....go get 'em tiger!

Seriously....they put a faulty appliance that was leaking gas in my house for 3 weeks and they are shocked I want a new one?

did you maybe buy it at KMart? that would explain a lot...

j/k, i know you most likely didn't. :huggy: that sucks, and I hope the new one gets delivered quickly and is operational on installation!!
 
You been peeking in my backyard?

That poop doesn't bother me.... there's no chance I'll accidentally step in it :giggles:

OH ANNNNND... please and thank you and your welcome and excuse me and all of those other nice manners!... JUST USE THEM... its not difficult and you look like such an **** when you dont!

oooooooooooooooooo! I LIKE THIS GIRL!!!!! :bliss:


Welcome to the Pet Peeves thread! You did GREAT! :huggy: Keep 'em coming!
 
Also people who ask questions and then keep talking... do you want an answer or not? Lots of peeves LOL i'm at work =]
 
I have a friend who always, ALWAYS cries poor. Like:
Me: Let's go for lunch
Her: Well, I have no $$
Me: No problem, I'll get it
Her: Ok, I'll get it next time (there is NEVER a next time or at least she does not remember the next time)

And the next day she tells me that her and her family are driving up to WI to pick up a musical instrument for her son that is a steal at $3000 and then they are just going to stay up there for a night for a mini family vacation !!?!?!?!!?

Huh ?? But yesterday, you didn't have $7 for lunch ???

I have another friend who gets $450 a WEEK from her ex for child support (3 kids)--he agreed just to get rid of her--I took my son to Disney for 2 weeks a while ago and she asked if I wanted to take one of her kids along so my son would have someone to hang with. Sounded like a good idea. So, she sends him with $200 for 2 weeks--that is supposed to include food, souvenirs and Disney tickets. I'm thinking ok, so you get $150 a week per kid and since I had your kid for 2 weeks, give me the $300. :lol:

Maybe I need some new friends. :lol: Does this post make me sound like a petty **** ??
 
Cashiers that do NOT know the difference between one per purchase and one per transaction !! Fought that battle a few times !!

And neighbors that think it's ok to shovel show from their drive and throw it onto yours !!!

Totally agree --> rude people that have no manners and do not know how to say thank you, please, excuse me..........................

sounds way too familiar
 
On days like today, my DH is my biggest pet peeve in the world.

He leaves approximately 2 tablespoons of orange juice in the container and doesn't understand why I get upset. He thinks he saved some for me but I'd rather he just finish it then. What's the point of leaving 2 drops of juice for someone??? Just finish it already and throw the box in the recycling! He does it all the time too and it drives me crazy!

Lately it's been his work. He's ALWAYS working lately. I realize his job supports us and with the salary he makes, it's not like he could just quit and find a similar paying job that would suddenly have half the hours but when he gets home, he just wants to do nothing.

Excuse me, but my day starts at 7 a.m. (sometimes earlier) and I'm busy all day as well. Gotta drop off kids, pick up kids, laundry, cooking, errands, doctor and dentist appts, who knows what else? When 7 p.m. rolls around, I'd love to just camp out and do nothing too but there are these 2 other people in the house (called our children!) who need some attention too. You haven't seen them all day ... perhaps you could spend some time with them now instead of messing around on your Facebook?

Arrrrrrrgh! :hurt:

Ok, vent over. I feel a tiny bit better.

Doing the laundry and all of my son's pants have one leg inside out and his boxers are twisted in there so I have to stop and fix the leg and pull the boxers out of all the pants then all the socks are scrunched up so I have to shake them all out, then DH will take off two layers of shirts at once and throw them in the laundry so I gotta pull the shirts apart before I can wash them........I could go on and on about laundry...............................................................:ranting:
:gah:

I'd throw them back in his room as is. Let him separate them. If he runs out of clean clothes, tough luck.

Yes, my son does this with his socks all the time. Balls them all up, one inside the other. He tells me so it will be easier to sort when they come out. I keep trying to explain to him that you CANNOT wash and dry socks in a ball !! But yet............he still does it !!:ranting:

Or when my son forgets and leaves notes/paper in his pocket. I end up with either a soggy mess in the washer or a fuzzy mess in the dryer. The child is 17, how many times ya gotta be reminded !! UGHHHHHHH !!!

Here's my solution: throw the dirty sock balls at his face as hard as you can. He'll get the message.
As for pockets: Clean out pockets prior to wash, confiscate all legal tender, post any notes on your facebook page for ridicule. Kids still write notes, right?

Wash them that way and put them in the back into a cloths basket in his room and let him do it!
