When you call someone and they put you on hold a million times or try to get you to talk to their kids and the kids cry and don't want to...but they keep trying to get them to.
Telemarketers.....ha ha...I have caller id now
mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Things in general?? Or things DH does?? I'll list both...
When DH blows his nose by just holding closed one nostril with one finger and blowing. He does this in the shower and I find boogies stuck to the tile! Bloody ones!
DH's workbench in the garage...it's piled high with his junk and you can't find anything! If ONLY he would put things back where they belong or find a good place and keep it there!! That one bugs me the most...when DH takes something out and puts it back in the WRONG place. I'll find things in the most awkward places!! (I'm a little anal about being organized).
When I'm going the speed limit, but people still pass me!! Or tailgating on the freeway! I want to scream "I HAVE A BABY IN THE CAR IDIOT!!!" Why do people risk their lives and others just for the sake of showing me that I'm driving too slow? It's so rude and makes me so angry...
Paying too much for cable, my phone bill, gas...
I really go nuts over anyone that doesn't have a bit of etiquette sense. I write thank you's all the time, I always bring something with me when I'm invited over someone's house, I taste things on my plate even if I know I don't care for it. It's common sense to me...but some people are so clueless!! Drives me nuts!
People that are self-centered and only talk about themself. I can't stand when someone interrupts what you're saying to put in their two cents or they have some story that they find more important than your's. Wait your turn!
When I leave messages for people and they NEVER return the call. Then they pretend they never got it...OR the worst is when they said they DID get it, but they just ignored it. Nice. So like Kimberely said, LIARS suck!
When some big truck in front of me kicks up rocks and one hits my windshield and makes a crack!! Very common in Colorado....DH and I both have cracks and our cars are only a few years old!
When I buy something at the grocery store and the date on the food has expired!!
When people assume that you have all the time in the world because you're a SAHM!
Gosh...I could go on and on!
Sarah&Mackenzie replied: Bad Drivers
2 Checkout lanes open when the store is so busy

People that just let there children do whatever they want
People who think they are better than me because they have more money
Telemarketers, especially the ones that call at 8-9 at night!!
Mommy2BAK replied: people who drive slow in the FAST lane on the highway
people who honk at me, b/c I am just learning to drive a stick shift
people who always let their children walk around stores, gas stations, ect. with no shoes on
men that think they are better than women b/c they are a man (hello? welcome to 2005)
MyBrownEyedBoy replied: My town recently went down the road next to our house and fixed all the potholes. I kid you not, 3 weeks later, they tore the entire road up and then waited 2 more weeks to repave the entire thing. Why fix the pothole in the first place? And why tear up the road 2 weeks before you are ready to repave it? City administrators tick me off!!
Hillbilly Housewife replied: Now THAT bugs me - why do construciton workers BOTHER to do something like that, especially KNOWING that there are MANDATORY construction vacation weeks during the summer??????????????? They KONW they`re on mandatory vacations for 2 or 3 weeks depending on the area... don``t screw with us people!!!
Duh...
Something else that really bothers me is bosses that ask you to do their personal stuff at the office. But it`s THEIR company, so you don`t want to say no... it's just so WRONG!
Also - my inlaws bother me.
It bothers me that if I don`t do the laundry or the dishes for one day.... it`s still ALL THERE piled up until I do it.... DH is such a lazy butthead!
I hate it when someone else goes on my computer at work and changes a setting that I like.
I hate it when someone comes into my office when Ì'm not there and takes a file, or even a friggin PEN - then I am the one who looks like an idiot when I'm asked for the file by someone else and I can't give it to them because I don't know where it is.... or I have to write something down and go to grab my pen and it's not there.... ARG!!! There's a SUPPLY ROOM! WALK!
I also hate being asked to do extra work, especially if it's to help out someone who I know fools around some during the day. As if I don`t have enough - well obviously I don't, since I'm on here part of the day... but darnit... leave me alone!
I hate how executives in a company think they can take extra long lunches, come in later and leave early - saying they have ''business'' to take care of, or a meeting somewhere.... then you go to drop off the mial at the post office and you see them having an ice cream cone with their significant other in a park.
What else?
Oh - how bout when I'm sick or not feeling well... I STILL have to do all the crap I do daily, both work and home - but when DH or some other guy has a ''sore throat'' or a ''headache'', they whine and complain about it all day then lie down becuase it huuuuUUUUuuuurts..... oh BOO HOO. Try being me for a day, pg aches and all.
Anyways.... I could all day about things that bug me.....

stanleygirl replied: Dh: Do not say what? a hundred times bc you dont want to turn the tv down! Don't throw your socks on the floor Dont encourage the kids to throw their socks on the floor either!
This is my #1 though: Ppl who cannot be bothered to reply when Kieran says hi to them, this happens all the time, even the cashiers do it lately and I am getting really steamed-it is so rude and what does that teach him!?
Ppl who scream and curse at their kids, or let them run around wild at all hours, or don't provide proper clothing for them. (I live beside a low cost housing unit right now and these are HUGE problems!)
Cell phone users with no manners!
I could go on, but that's enough for now
