telemarketers, polsters, and other telephone time wasters. They usually call just as I am getting ready to do my shot, or recovering from it. NO! I dont want to talk about YOUR candidate while I jab a sharp object into my tummy.

Women who dress their 5 year olds like sluts! We went out to dinner last night, and I swear to God, this 5 year old had glittered sweat short on that said JUICY across her back side. when she spun around she had a barely on ripped tank top and glitter in her hair! She was running around the restaurant like a wild chicken, and when she got closer, I swear, those looked like real diamonds in her ears, and a dooney and burke purse! she was chattering on a pretend cell phone, and just making a monkey of herself.


school car washes! what is wrong with parents that they will let their 14 or 15 year old stand in a bikini on the side of the road covered in suds, begging cars to pull in and get washed? I have always thought that was just wrong!

I have a 9 year old daughter and its really hard to find appropriate young
girl clothing It really burns my bottom Alot of stores I completely
refuse to enter because its all hootchie mama clothing.

I also hate the sound of people eating raw celery or carrots......or people
who chew gum with their mouth open. I just wanna smack em under
their jaw and shut it for them. the fear of paying for their dental bills
is the only thing that stops me.

Another shopping cart pet peeve is the fact that at many stores, there is NO cart return even remotely close to the handicapped parking. Sam's Club does a good job with this, they have their cart returns right next to HC parking, but Walmart (sister store) doesn't.

If we need closer parking don't they think we need a closer location to return our carts? I feel like these parking lot designers are mocking us:

"Here's your nice close parking spot so that you don't have to drag your stupid legs all the way to the back 40 of the parking lot, but unfortunately, if you want to return your cart, you'll have to hoof it another length of a football field!"

Oh, I forgot to follow up on the one about not putting up new TP. It drives me even more crazy when someone gets out a new roll and won't take the extra step to actually put it on the holder. I mean, how much energy does it take to do that? It's not a complicated maneuver, but to finish off the roll, leave the empty tube in place on the holder and just plunk the new roll on the back of the commode is lazy!!

Oh I just remembered. Shopping carts!

What is wrong with Target???!!

You go into the stores, and all you see is the first row of all baby carriage shopping carts. The ones that toddlers ride on, or the ones with the baby seat on it. GRRR.... I am stumbling and tripping on myself, and just want a cart to lean on. I have to climb around TWO full rows of baby carts, to get to the adult regular shopping carts. If you need a power chair, you have to go over to the cashiers and climb in BEHIND the express lane cashier to get to one.


Also why did they change the speed on the power chairs in stores? I used to be able to go get my things done, now I travel at a snails pace when I use them, and it barely creeps along. Did they do that to stop teenagers from riding them? LETS GO!

LOL, I find this a lot with the online news too. I'm sitting there going - spell checker didn't help you with that one, did it?

A couple of other pet peeves of mine:

If you can't drive and talk on the phone, then don't do it. I can't tell you how many times I've almost been hit by people who were on their cells.

People who make sure you can't put your grocheries on the belt behind them in line. I had a lady the other day with only two items in front of me who refused to move from her place next to the belt or to offer to get me one of those dividers so I could at least start getting my stuff on there.

People who walk in the middle of a road without the courtesy to at least move to one side when a car is coming down it.

People who forget that the road rules, like stop signs, apply to them when they are on a bicycle.

Good one! . . . Or, if they walk across diagonally, stretched over about a block.

People who move to a new country and don't "do as the Roman's do" once they get there.

When someone asks a question, doesn't really listen to the answer, then asks the same thing later . . . or . . . they keep asking the same question over and over again, but they don't try any of the suggestions to better their situation.

People who wave their hand in their face when they walk through smoke OUTSIDE!!

Drivers who drive too slow in the passing lane. Pass, and MOVE OVER!!

Hypocrates.
