Pet Peeves, let's hear them.

Sign in to disble this ad
everyone's got them, which ones reeally grind your gears? (oooohoo he said it!)


i'll start: i hate when people clean up after me. really annoys the crap out of me cuz they put stuff away and inevitably i'll need whatever it was that was put away and i'll no longer be able to find it. drives me nuts

along a similar vein: i hate it when people tell me to clear up a mess before i've finished making it example: i'm oiling my fret board, which takes a while (gotta let it dry, etc) and my roomate comes and asks me if i'm gonna clean that stuff away.

People who pronounce "cavalry" as "Calvary." Pro tip: Jesus didn't ride with Custer.

Stupid people....for instance: the sound man for another band told me that having a bus makes you a better musician/singer.

Roommates who complain about me not doing the dishes for the 3 days I was away and then proceed to not do ANY housework for months afterward. Or, basically, hypocrites.

Money. More specifically, how expensive everything is. Also my inability to manage my finances. In combination, they have royally screwed me over.

Right now, I'd have to say people talking on their cell phones while in the restroom, and sitting on the crapper... Seriously, there's no one I need to talk to badly enough to warrant doing it while on the toilet!!

People who drag/scuff their feet when they walk.

Well, except for the ones who have a medical condition that prevents them from properly picking up their feet when they walk.

Preach on! That just makes everyone uncomfortable: the person on the other end of the phone, the guy in the stall next to you . . . I don't believe that you are honestly that busy or important.

One of our tech support analysts was on the phone with a customer while he was sitting on the toilet.
