Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

My daughters cooking. I'm a good cook. I mean I'm no Iron Chef but I my men are satisfied when they leave the table. That girl....*shudders*

I'm sitting upstairs today and suddenly I smell something. First thing that comes to mind is some type of chemical like butane or propane...something. So I ask my husband if he's been in the garage or to the gas station or something. As we are talking its getting stronger and stronger. My husband has a breathing problem so he doesn't smell things unless they are quite strong but finally he goes "Oh THAT?" and I say yes. He tells me that my daughter is cooking supper. Food....that smell is FOOD. Food is NOT SUPPOSED TO SMELL LIKE THAT!

Isn't food when its cooking supposed to draw you into the kitchen and make you want to sneak a taste of it? Not make you want to run sceaming from the house or call the friggin fire department?? I had to close my bedroom door, open the window and blow the stench out. Then my husband ran out and got me a bowl of soup.

Yes I did teach how to cook but my daughter hates me. So she takes whatever I've taught her and morphs it into something else.........and sometimes it just doesn't turn out too well.....

You can tell by her spelling that she's still reeling from the deadly fumes of her daughter's cooking.

It must be bad.

- Waking up to find that you just missed a lecture. I did this this morning and apparently I let my alarm clock ring for a full hour before it went off. It was great for getting back at the noisy as hell roommates who tried to burst into my room the other night while I was sleeping.

- Having a day off only to find that at the end of it I spent pretty much the entirety of it playing video games. Why came games be more like MGS and yell at me if I've been playing for too long? I finished Disc 1 of FFVII in a day and maxed out Aeris, Yuffie and Red XIII Limit Breaks (only 4th level limit breaks you can get on disc one) for gawd's sake.

- Downloading any form of media (game, music, video etc) only to find out that it's in some stupidly obscure format so I have to go and track down the plugin to play it on a media player on my laptop. Bonus annoyance points if I have to pay for the bloody thing.

- Console fanboys. Just everything about them. it's both hilarious and sad seeing people scream about hating X system because of one tiny petty thing or because it lacks some form of gimmick that their favourite has. If your self esteem is so low that you have to scream your justification of you purchasing a games console at passing people you really need help. It's even worse when you're trying to buy a video game and the person at the counter is a fanboy who hates the console the game you're holding is for.

- People who blame the Government for every tiny little thing that goes wrong without even stopping to thing who might actually be responsible for whatever went wrong.

- Those really annoying young couples who think that everything about them is special and their love being special and whatnot who refuse to acknowledge that they will go through the same problems as every relationship goes through. Especially when said couple don't even last a week because they can't handle said problems that everyone goes through

Sounds like someone is crying about the "Blame Canada" song, and perhaps Weird Al's "Canadian Idiot".

It's ok, we'll wait for something to come out of Canada besides syrup and snow.

...waiting...

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

I'm usually leaving for work a little after dawn so if it isn't cloudy out there is light in the sky to see me or any of the other vehicles on the road. This morning, I'm driving down the street and somebody in a truck flashes his headlights at me, #1 it isn't 12:00 Midnight or dark outside so you can see me, and #2 If you can't see my car is moving then you need to get off the road and turn in your Driver's License. My car doesn't have automatic running lights on it because it is too old, and I don't like turning my headlights on because alot of the time if I turn them on I'll forget to turn them back off. Which will eventually cause my battery to run down while I am at work. Funny thing is I almost turned them on to flash back at him and then immediately turn them off, but I decided against it with my better judgement.

Did you know that turning on your lights is for your own safety? Here in the Netherlands it's mandetory to put your headlights on half an hour before sundown and keep them on at least half an hour after sunset. In Europe they are trying to make it mandetory to keep your lights on all the time...don't know if that's really necessary though. So it's not whether you think you can see enough on the road, but that other people see you...



One of my "traffic peeves" is the fact that there are a lot of people who do not use there indicators when they're turning or going over an island. Really pisses me off some times...

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

I hate the people who can see that you have no intention whatsoever of letting them in (this is during heavy traffic, of course) but still try to nose their oh-so-important ass in front of me anyway. I won't stop. TRY ME. If I wanted to let you in I would have waved you in, hung back a bit, and let you, but if my nose is pretty much directly on the ass end of the car in front of me, fuck off, I'm not letting you in.

Yeah, I'm inconsiderate, but who the fuck isn't? Someone else much nicer than me will let you go. Don't just assume that because I'm stopped I'm going to be nice, that's one thing that will make me more likely to be a prick.

I still say that if it isn't 6:30AM or 7:30PM which is around the time it starts getting dark now because of the seasons changing, then light flashing is unnecessary. Now that I thinka bout it, he didnt flick them like I do, he turned them on for a few seconds and turned them back off.

Also people who see there is a obstruction in the road (Truck with arrows pointing <<<, or barrells for a construction area) and don't get over, they ride the lane out until the end and then wonder why nobody lets them get over. I was driving the other day and this guy was riding in the right lane and I was in the center lane, so I slowed down to let him get over because I didnt want him cutting me off or riding on my bumper because he almost ran into the construction truck.

EDIT: ^^lol posted almost the same topic as Aksannyi

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

stuff

Right because your oil grows on trees, wave to Alberta, Canada they send you the most

Right again because you have so much softwood lumber, BC, Canada would liek to say hello

Again, wave to Ontario, as they send you ore, uranium, medicine,

Wave to Saskatchewan for all the beef/grain/oats that you take in

Canada keeps your country full of resources, and manufactured goods. You keep us full of laughs, because how backwards your country is.

Those are some nice sounding resources.

Why haven't we invaded you yet?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Nationalists.

Didn't we learn this was bad in Bosnia? Or WWII, or WWI... or every war leading up to or after that? Seriously, if your country is the greatest thing in the world... there's something wrong with you. There's at least something major wrong with every nation out there, or you wouldn't need passports so that all the reasonably intelligent people could escape whatever cesspool you live in. If there's absolutely nothing wrong with your country, you've clearly suffered some sort of major head trauma, or you're smoking something really, really good. You're a right awful bastard for not sharing that, BTW. Selfish little pricks...

I'm talking more about everyone who responded to THIS THREAD, and was not making a joke or talking about food. There's clearly something fundamentally wrong with all of you. Some, like Feba and Malacite come off as mildly annoying, (a stretch for both of them). Others, like MrMageo and DakAttack are the sort of folks whose brains I'd like to carve out with a rusty spoon. (Yes, I know it wouldn't hurt any more than using a regular spoon, just let me have this one for cathartic reasons). Then I could haul your brains down to the nearest medical research campus and finally find out what the hell is wrong with you people. I'm really hoping for inoperable tumors. The number of you idiots keeps getting larger, and I'd hate to think you weren't all terminal.
