1-I don't cuss a lot, but one thing that will bring out the profane in me are those people on the road who drive like maniacs then give me the finger for driving safely in my own lane minding my own business. I hope they can read my lips.
2-I hate, hate, hate waiting at the checkout while someone has to go back to get something they forgot and I've already been waiting forever.
3-I don't like people to quote scriptures to me and tell me how to fix my problem when they have no conception of what's broken.
4-I despise useless conversations about basically nothing. Put some meat on the table or don't expect me to enjoy the meal.
5-I really hate Facebook. Some people may use it in a positive way but too many use it to gossip and hurt other people.
6-Don't you just cringe when you hear some people telling parents how to raise their children when you know what a poor job they did with their own?
7-Backstabbing two-faced bitches are the bane of society
8-Bigots who put people down for their race, religion, sexual preference, need to go into the corner in perpetual time out until they learn some tolerance and respect.
9-People who read authors' works just to criticize. If you know you don't like it, why do you read it?
10-Men who follow you around in public places and peek at you around corners and people who stare at you in restaurants.
11-People who don't say what they mean.
12-People who say what they mean without any trace of tact whatsoever.
13-People who are late everywhere they go and never apologize for the inconvenience it causes others.
14-Parents that jerk children around by the arm and scream at them in Walmart.
15-Dog owners who leave their pet's poop on the sidewalk or path.
16-Don't assume you know what I think before I tell you. I hate that.
17-Self righteous assholes who want to send everybody but themselves and their cronies to hell.
18-Rude people in public service jobs who don't know how to be of service.
I have a few more, but these are the ones that came to mind today. Do you have any of the same?
Hi Princess of the Heart,I agree with all of your pet peeves, thank you for that! One of my favorite is 'complaining and won't do anything about it'! Peace!!!
A very good list. I coincide with them all. However, I probably could be caught following you around in a public place attracted by your beauty. ;-) And, I have been known to be tactless myself… Mostly out of ignorance.
I can say I am the type of person I can't stand!!! I am in total agreement with this and it spurs me to be more mindful of myself. Thanks for a great lesson!
As I read through your list I found myself nodding in agreement. I totally shared your sentiment about Facebook and abandoned my profile for years until the need to up the ante in marketing my upcoming novel forced me to take a hard look at the people I'd formerly surrounded myself with. With an entirely new perspective of aligning myself with people "on the same page" of shared interests, it's opened up a whole new world for me without the drama.
For a time, I perched myself on a flat rock, comparing my life with the Guyandotte River. Just as its tributaries replenish it daily, changing it in some small—sometimes great—degree, so have the day-to-day occurrences of life changed me. Like the ri
Join me as we travel together on the road called "Aging." I will be sharing my personal experiences with you and offer ideas on how we can better navigate the complex byways of our older years. Grief, healing, generations, ancestors, and more.
Sherlyn Powell opens up about her love and devotion to her family and the overwhelming repercussion when communication breaks down. Heartbroken and distraught she learns to release her prayer and realize with faith God would reunite her family.
Always,

I particularly like no. 9 on your list.
