Can we discuss pet peeves here? (3 Viewers)

[Mrs. Rannous]

Straws are dumb anyway. Nobody uses them at home or for like 99% of drinking needs

I get for carry out cups with lids, but why are people so adamant about needing a straw for a glass of water at a restaurant?

Tooth sensitivity? Or preserving lipstick?

 

[need2know]

You people that back into tight spaces are morons. You are just asking for door dings galore.

Go to the outer edges of the parking lot. You have so many options:

1. single pull in
2. back in
3. the pull through

And you get a little exercise walking to the front door. Plus plenty of room around you to load all your goodies.

Amateurs.......

My favorite is driving past someone "waiting" for a close spot. Drive down 20 spots to an empty park area.
Get out and walk past the car still waiting.

*I get not everyone can walk further etc but it still makes me giggle

My wife is one of these people. I purposely drive to one of the farthest spots on purpose just to mess with her.

I drink my coffee through a straw....

If I'm driving, I want a straw.

You don't mind smearing your lipstick?

Weak excuses

I had a tooth with an exposed pulp for a bit until I got it fixed, and for that straws were awesome as the cold sensitivity was awful. But outside of a situation like that, I agree the vast majority of people don't gain that much from having a straw.

I giggled on this one but would have preferred to just do a quick laugh emoji. Alas, here we are with words describing my reaction.

I don’t know squat about the inner webs. But won’t all this quoting of posts take up more space/bandwidth/memory or whatever and cost more money?

Also I get a notification that my post was quoted

That’s kind of annoying

Whereas if someone “laugh liked” or whatever you call the same post I did I don’t get a notification

what if they quote and did laugh. where does that rank?

That's strange, I get the opposite. I don't get notifications if someone quotes my post, but I do if someone "likes (or the other 4 options)" it.

You can adjust your notifications to suit your preferences.

It's been 2 weeks since I won a 65" TV at a raffle. We need a new cabinet/stand to fit it in the family room. Have a 42" there.

Wife still can't decide.....she's the worst when shopping.... always has buyers remorse

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Way too many carrots in my Pad Khing tonight

I've gotten like 6000 notifications because of my straw comment. Not a peeve though. I feel love

Isn't it ironic? Don't you think? It's already annoying for other reasons.

Let me pick something. I have good taste, and so does Mr R.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

The last question is do you want a straw? I answer no. Every time the person who made the coffee hands me a straw and I say no thanks. I actually asked why is that a question if you guys ask all the time.....

Move to California. Only give you a straw if you ask for it but if you do ask then you will get a crappy paper straw that makes everything taste like cardboard. So win-win

This is supposed to be how it works in NJ, but many places provide the straw anyway or do what belljr's Wawa does.

I tried with the paper straws, I really did.

But I guess some dolphins are just going to have to freaking die.

When the waiter/waitress takes your glass away to refill it instead of bringing a new filled glass or a pitcher to refill it. Particularly when it has a straw in it and they don’t bring me a new one.

People who brake prior to going over a small gap on the highway.

People who brake prior to going over a small gap on the highway.

Breaking and then lifting my foot off the brake before I go over the pothole is preferred to breaking while I go over the pothole.

Try avoiding the potholes, but that’s not what I’m talking about here. I’m talking about things like pavement surface changes or going over an overpass and there’s a little metal transition strip between the overpass and the highway. Theyre flush with the ground no reason to slow down.

Went to Kwik Trip a few minutes ago and bought 3 medium sized bags of chips, 1 pint of ice cream, 1 small container of potato salad, and some milk. After paying the young kid asked me if I wanted a bag. Are they really trying to save on plastic bags, or are people really that stupid?

I almost always say no bag. I’m sure I’m not the only one. I’m sure you could carry all that in your 2 hands if you really wanted to

They are told to ask this just in case the customer brought in their own, even if it is obvious you don't have one.

The store manager should have done a strip search first, and if nothing found, automatically put my stuff in a bag.
