Pet Peeves

***Admin*** · 11-17-03, 03:12 PM

1) When guys don't put the toilet seat up.
2) Makes a promise to meet up but never does or returns your message.
3) Hypocrisy

Those are all that comes to my mind at the moment.

HMM...Bugs my the most...

1.) Girls who are picky eaters!!!

And guys you know what I'm talking about. When the guys go out everyone orders a burger with everything. Girls want a little bit of mustard, no onions, a dash of mayo, on a toasted bun, and they want their burger well done. Holy cow its a burger! just order it with everything and eat it. HAha. Or when you take a girl out to a expensive restaurant and she pecks at the food, then says she is full! ahhhh drives me insane!

LOL. Your girl is very picky. Speaking of girls...

1) Girls that have no manner. Burps when we eat, talks so loud, and like to spend all my money.

2) Straight out liars.
3) Idiots who scratches other people's car.

4) People who needs to show off their bling blings.

People that looks down on you by how you dress.
People that looks down on you by the car you drive.
People that looks down on you if you don't talk alot.
People that does not buy their own food but takes some of ours.

When u read a magazine from a store, and when u open it up all the subscription adds fall and u have 2 pick them up!!

when u get an answering machine so that u never have 2 miss a call, but when somebody cals, and they hear it, they hang up.

when nice guys finish last.

People grew up expecting to become the "princess" or "macho man."

I had the mis-fortune to meet a girl who is off the scale on the "girlyness." She also explained that she is consider and being kept as a "princess" by her family and wants to marry rich. She has not played any sports besides jogging since youth, since sports would make her dirty / break her nails / unladylike (people still use the word "ladylike" nowdays?). "I like to be taken-cared of by my future husband." She said.

For the males, one annoying thing is to see a totally "manly man" who strives to showcase and conform his manhood, by avoiding anything slightly not masculine. One example is my trip to the mall with three of my friends. One of them brought her 220lb, all muscle boyfriend along. After the movie she had to go to the restroom and handed the shopping bag along with the purse to her guy. I came out of the men's room seeing him holding the purse like there was a bomb inside (outstretched arm, with his holding the purse strings in the end). He also avoids anything to do with pink, red, and other "pretty" colors. He wears all black.

When a guy thinks he is much more knowledgeable than I when in reality, I have more experience and knowledge. Stubborn guys.

Guys that need to cuss on every single sentence that comes out of his mouth. This is not high school people.

Exhaust (and mufflers) sounds on any car is damn annoying. No offense if you have one on your car.

Springles · 11-20-03, 09:42 AM

Not sure if this is a pet peeve but getting a parking spot on the campus is a pain in the butt.

When a professor just doesn't know how to teach the class. I'm paying money for this ya know.

Another vote for exhaust systems on a car. For a mere increase of hp, you want your car to be so damn loud? Puts a bad name on imports.

People who wastes food. There are a lot of starving people in other countries. Be thankful for living in the U.S.

Xavier · 11-20-03, 10:57 AM

I also find people waisting food a pet peeves. When I go to a buffet, people get greedy and get more food than they can eat. It all goes to waste.

People that they say they can do something but they really can't. Hypocrites. They are giving themselves a bad reputation.

People who do not keep their promises. If you can't, you should tell ahead.

Hoggers. They don't know how to share or give others some chance. They need to show off.

Duker06 · 11-20-03, 08:12 PM

Hmm...

1. Children in R rated movies!!! Why do people bring babies to movie theaters!!
2. Commercials in Movie Theaters
3. Cell Phone's ringing in Class, But I'm also a guilty of this
4. People who want to be the center of attention
5. High school kids hanging out at Cal Poly...

*Sigh* Im just ranting but some of these things i get tired of...

vipz · 11-21-03, 01:56 PM

Drivers speeding past you and changes lanes without signaling, especially when there's (some) traffic.

When instructors say, "We'll discuss that later..." but never do.

Puffguts · 11-22-03, 01:32 PM

"Drivers speeding past you and changes lanes without signaling, especially when there's (some) traffic. "

What is worse than the above is when signaling to change lane, you see the car on that lane speeds up to "not lose the spot." I mean what is wrong with those people? Whenever I see someone signaling to change lane, I slow down and let them pass.

The drivers who changes lanes without signaling usually are the same people who speeds up when seeing other people signaling to change into "their" lanes.

I hold no grudges against them knowing they are bound to have traffic accidents sooner or later.

People who cut others off, or speed up so people who are signaling cannot pass into their lane are usually:

Pickup Truck drivers - drivers: people with low education and low paying jobs. Mentality: I am drive a truck and I am so tough! I don't let others pass. Usually white, male, young if the pickup truck is newer and unmarked, older if the truck has company logo and equipments on them.

SUV drivers - drivers: people with personal / physical insecurities / lackings trying to make them up with bigger cars. Mentality: biggest car on the block, others brake for ME. It is like "my dad can beat up your dad - my car is bigger than your car."
