Pet peeves

Consistantly bad grammar. Not on the internet, and not the occasional fluff (no one is perfect, least of all me, we all make mistakes), I'm talking about people who ALWAYS say things like "I seen it", "I done it", "I ain't done nothin'" etc.
Oh. My. Gods. There are no words to describe the agony I feel when I hear this. AND people who speak like this often think those who speak with correct grammar are snobs or posh or up themselves. Just yesterday I heard from two girls, with TERRIBLE grammar, that my nephew (who has the best grammar of any 11yr old I've met) sounded like he was english, simply because he used the right words. :confused:

I have a few stupid pet peeves too. Like... people not being able to identify (what I consider) common dog breeds, general ignorance about dogs, retail assistants commenting on what I'm buying, bogans, people not flushing the toilet after they pee, people chewing with their mouth open, people who have no manners.

That's all I can think of right now. :smt081

maybe I'm jaded, but you really need to get out more. And stop pretending to be so innocent. You're 30. Men are men, no matter their skin color - don't pretend to be a virgin for most of these dudes in here - they are certainly not worth the trouble.

How about you let me be who I am? I am a sweet girl, lets see I'm friendly, flirty, grounded in reality, kind, compassionate person.

As far as the 30 comment, I am a big kid at heart.

As far as the virgin thing, I have had two long term relationships with men.

I am so sorry that my sincerity urks you, feel free not to read my posts.

Ignore her. Seriously....ignore her.
 
People who don't wash their hands after using the bathroom.

People who don't flush.

Selfish people.

Bullies.

I hate that, too. I cringe even more when I see people do it in a restaurant. *shudders*

I will politely remind them if they're about to walk out, or mention it to the manager.

Them being embarrassed isn't even close to the potential of getting food poisoning. (which can destroy your kidneys).
 
People who are always late.
People who say they are going to do something and then don't.
