H***r_d*h 147 Report post Posted August 17, 2009 Regarding doorway etiquette, I really get peeved when there's a line of people going thru a door and everyone is keeping the door open for the person following except the friggin' slider who just slides thru the opening even though they have nothing in their hands preventing them from extending the same courtesy. The door closes and a 7-person pile up ensues. Arrrrrrggghhhh! :ablow: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VedaSloan 119179 Report post Posted August 17, 2009 None of these are related to driving, mainly because I haven't been the driver of a vehicle in a few years. -people who don't say thank you when someone does something courteous, like open a door, or offer their seat on a crowded bus. -people who won't give up their seat for the elderly. -people who makeout on the bus. -people who practically shout on their cell phones on the bus. -groups who don't reduce to single file to walk past me on the sidewalk. - Baby stroller SVU's. Seriously, do you really need all that space FOR ONE KID? -bad breath. -dirty hands/fingernails. -people who don't introduce themselves on the phone. -when I get books from the library and someone has folded the corner of the page over to mark their place. -guys who chat for half of their appointment and then ask me for a deal because the sex only took 15 minutes. -Quebec bus drivers who refuse to speak to me in English. -cab drivers who argue about the best way to get to my destination. Just go the way I told you. -when my lover hangs up on me during a heated argument over the phone. You can't bail everytime things don't go your way. -condescending clients who think they're smarter than me because they're older. Older does not necessarily make you wiser, and you have no idea what I've experienced in my life already. -rando's who tell me I have nice tits in contexts UNRELATED to sex work. -when fat people talk shit about other people being fat. Hating yourself are we? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GOSSIP! Yes, man this pisses me off. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't fucking say it. Venting is one thing, but talking shit about people behind their backs is totally uncalled for. I also don't like when people ask personal questions. I mean, would you ask your lawyer or your doctor how much they make in a year? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misterdynomite30 174 Report post Posted August 19, 2009 Pet Peeve list for this month : 1) Being used to play 'cupid' because one person is too chickens**t to tell the other they like them. (i HATE being the middleman for this.. its insulting to my intelligence) :-? 2) People who bring the ''city experience'' with them when going camping. i.e. expect strong internet access, electricity (for blowdrying their hair and plugging in a porta-stove / microwave) and perfect phone reception when camping.. and then abuse it like as if they never went camping in the first place.. isn't camping about campfires & getting away from it all? argh! 3) Encountering drunk loud people 4) Drivers who prematurely honk their horn at pedestrians who have the right of way to signal that they should 'hurry up' or 'run' across the street when they aren't even stalling (a.k.a. road rage toward pedestrians). If you are in a car, you already are getting to your destination way quicker than the person walking on the sidewalk and you are sheltered from the weather. Don't take that for granted while sitting in your comfy drivers seat. If you are running late then you should have drove their earlier. Taking your rage out on pedestrians just shows you're an idiot. end of rant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
