PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

4. "RE: Friday Pet Peeve Gripe" |
I hate people who think that they can automatically shorten my name to "Marge" when I clearly introduce myself as "Margaret" - that really sets my teeth on edge."Between you and I", "Me and him are going to the store", "To tell you the truth" (no, lie to me), "Between me, myself, and I" are a few others that drive me nuts. When I'm driving, I can't stand when someone goes slower than the speed limit but speeds up when I try to pass them. When I'm camping, I can't stand people who have no concept of "Quiet hours" - of course I usually extract revenge on them early in the morning.

My biggest pet peeve is that when people se my driving behind them at night in my cop looking white car they drive 10 miles slower than the dam speed limit. I'm like HELLLOOOO at least drive the speed limit.Or better yet - how about the idiot that pulls out right in front of you and then drives 10 miles an hour when there is absolutley no one behind you. People who have their seatbelts on but their kids are all over the car un-buckled. Oh I could go on and on

You crack me up, Bebe. To take Tech's peeve a little further, I despise NEXTEL phones, and their owners. That beepidybeep noise makes my skin crawl. Not only that, but having a loud discussion, on what amounts to a fancy walkie talkie, in public, is beyond rude! Turn that thing OFF! Another thing that chaps my whistleass is when people state the obvious, like I'm some kindof moron. Yes, I know the sky is blue, you don't have to tell me, over and over again. They think they're such know-it-alls, but they really just look like the idjuts that they really are. Ooooo, this thread is fun!

LAST EDITED ON 01-21-05 AT 11:25 AM (EST)The ones that leap to mind: Calling multiple RBI, RBIs Cops pulling people over and taking up a lane on the main thoroughfare. Move to a side street! People who hate Necco wafers. 
I've made a decision to include the necco in every post today. SOMEONE will get my x-thread and appreciate it....maybe.

Ehhhhem *clears throat & unrolls list*1) Chewing Gum. Few people I've seen can chew gum discretely. Most perform at least one of the most annoying habits ever: chomping with mouth open, blowing bubbles, snapping the gum, having a giant wad of gum, and/or chewing overly powerful smelling gum (don't get me started on smelling Altoids mints). I smiled when I heard it was one of Oprah's pet peeves, too. 2) Loud Talkers. Usually if I stare long enough they feel my eyes burning a hole through them and quiet down. It's especially bad at restaurants. 3) Cell phone talkers in public. I sometimes answer my phone if I'm in a store, but will immediately find a quiet, secluded spot to talk. I NEVER just carry on a conversation in public. If I'm at the store, it's a "hi, what do you want" kind of thing. 4) DAWs..in the true sense. I hate it when people have an obvious self-esteem problem, especially when they are say, over 21. Get over it & move on. Seek counseling if necessary. 5) People that always have to be right. Ever male in DHs family is like this. 6) Gross eaters. This goes along with my gum issues. Chew with your mouth closed. And don't start a story with two words, take a bite & then try to finish telling the story. Or, my dad always told stories at the dinner table in two word fragments. He wouldn't talk with his mouth full, but would interrupt mid-sentence to take a bite. His stories took forever. Ok, the raving b!tch has now left the building.

*nods her head*Gross eaters will be the death of me. Blech! Chewing gum? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. There's a guy at work who walks around popping bubbles. Drives me insane. Another of my pet peeves ... people who chew their icecubes. DH sometimes does that and I give him the evil eye. He doesn't understand why it bothers me. AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!! Biggest driving pet peeves ... People who tailgate! I go nuts! And, those peeps that cruise along in a turning lane only to cut into your lane at the last second. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

I hate "You know what?" No, I never met him, however I am close friends with his brother, who.The biggest thought, applies to my DH. If I hear something when I am out and come home and tell him about it, chances are he will say "I knew that last week, and I told you about it." Now, I know I forget things, but not always. I just know that there is a little relay in his head that causes "I must tell Survey" to become "I told Survey". 
If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

I'll add just one:When a person asks you a question, they listen to your answer, and then they say "Really? You really think so". Hello! Why would I have lied when I answered you the first time? Yes I really think so.

Many of mine, especially those relating to people with food in their mouths, have already been identified.**Businesses with contrived spellings: Kim's Korner or Kid Kountry. For the love of Mike, if you're going to be a professional, spell the damn word correctly or you will NEVER get my business. **Triple that frustration with weird kid name spellings. There are umpteen and forty ways to spell names like McKayla or Madison these days. If you want to be original, don't name your kid the same thing that everyone else does, dammit. **Thongs with low cut jeans and boxers with baggy pants. Growthefuckup. **People who use the self-checkout at Kroger and have not one flipping clue how to make it work, so they stand there (with about 24 items in the basket) and just stare at it. And then they don't put the stuff on the scale and it takes them forever and a day to get checked out. Meanwhile, I've got two items and three kids behind them waiting. **Stupid people in general. **The horrible stereotypes of people from Tennessee that are used in television and movies. Not all of us have a brother named Billy Bob or wear curlers in our hair while we're sitting on the deck of our trailer waiting for the next wrestling match to start. Oh, and I? pretty much always wear shoes in public and I don't keep farm animals in my yard. **People who are supposed to email or call you back and just disappear off the face of the earth instead. That's just tacky and rude. **Reading any type of material over my shoulder for any reason unless there was a specific invitation to do so. **People who insist that the only way to improve education is to come up with a universal method of evaluating teachers that involves some ridiculous standardized test. How about we do it like they do in most other professions and let the management team do an evaluation? **People who think that because they went to school at some point in their lives they are now an authority on education.

94. "RE: Friday Pet Peeve Gripe" |
Let's see, it's technically Saturday now, but I was busy yesterday, so here goes my list: 1. Loud talkers on their cell phones. DH put an end to this one time in a movie theater by turning around and entering the person's cell phone conversation, asking, "Weren't you talking to me?" The girl got embarrassed and quieted down. 2. People who drive talking on their cell phones. I think it's too dangerous to be distracted by this. If you must talk while you drive, get a hands free system. 3. Skip tracers, or should I say, ones who don't know the area very well and make assumptions. Lately, we've been getting erroneous mail for people with the same last name as us, because the apartment complex we used to live in had a universal address, then the individual apartment number was a combination of the building letter plus apartment number. For example, we lived in building L on the third floor, so our apartment was L303. Hundreds of people shared the same street address this way, so those who are trying to track down others see that the "Millers" have moved from 90 Seattle Drive, the same street address for everyone in the apartment complex, to a new address and assume it's the family they are looking for, never mind that the first name is different. I received a call from someone who left a message asking "Kenneth Miller" (not my real last name)to call them back. I didn't call them back, but they called the next day asking for him, and when I told them there was no Kenneth here, they repeated the whole name, as if suddenly I would remember a Kenneth living in my house. Um, no, you have the wrong number. Anyway, we've been in our house for more than a year, and the fun seems to be just beginning. I'm even receiving mail for people who don't have the same last name as ours, and I know it was not a previous occupant of our home, as we are only the second family to live here. I don't like have to make these letters "return to sender", and I imagine it's not a favorite pastime at the post office to sort out this mess. 4. Telemarketers who keep calling about a mortgage loan, when I don't need one and have no interest. It's a function of the industry, that once they have your name, they sell it to a host of others, who hound you forever, promising you a better mortgage rate. I'm not interested. Please stop calling! 5. Telemarketers who sound like they are from a foreign country and can't pronounce my very common last name. 6. I forgot. Oh, yeah, people who get mad about my bad memory. Sorry, I'm not doing this to offend you. 7. People who don't watch their own kids. Tonight we had a "Family Game Night" at our church. As a member of the Activities Committee, I was in on the planning. We all brought snacks and people sat at tables and played games. Most of them had a few little kids who ran all over the place, spilling food everywhere, while the adults played games. Another member of the committee came up to me and asked me to walk around the room to supervise, because of all the kids tearing around the place. Even the older kids who are close to teenagers were running around like it was the playground. 8. People who ask their kids to do something, but don't follow through. It doesn't do any good, if you don't check to see if the kids has done what was required.  Silvergirl
