What's your pet peeve in RL?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Wow, it's bad enough to not do shit, but to then not even show up and at least pretend you were part of it by presenting? Then again, maybe that's the better way to fuck off a group project, because trying to pull one over and pretend like you were an actual part of it is pretty audacious as well.

Either way, there is nothing wrong with letting that person fail. If you can't be fucked to put in any work, you shouldn't get any credit.

Whenever I go shopping I can't ever find a combination of short leg and skinny waist.
it seems designers think that thin people are tall and short people are fat.

Pretty much this. I'm 6ft 2in and find it impossible to get jeans that fit both my legs and waist comfortably. I tend to just say screw it and buy jeans that just fit me in the leg then wear a belt. I prefer baggy clothes anyway so I only have to put up with my family poking fun at seeing my underwear whenever they slip down a little.

Landing a part from an audition but not really being sure if I actually want it.

I auditioned for a group of performing pirates (festivals, fairs, weddings, etc) and I'm not sure if I want to do it now that I've been offered a place in their "crew". Honestly, it looks pretty fun. I love stage-combat. I'm just not sure if my back is quite up to it yet, Idk how much costume is up to me to purchase, and I also don't know how much of a commitment it is...

Peeve: being wanted.

I'm 6'5'' and I don't have any problems with jeans. I find Levi's 559s and 569s fit well at around 36/36. Other than that you can check Kingsize Direct, if you don't already. L.L. Bean is also selling more tall-sized clothes, but they're expensive.

When I was a kid, I didn't have a computer, XBox, or Wii. I had a bike and a curfew. My toys were the outside world. If I didn't eat what my mom made, I didn't eat & I dealt with it. I didn't dare to talk back & I got in BIG TROUBLE if I did. Life wasn't hard, it was life... And I survived. Repost if you appreciate... the way you were raised!

...the ironic thing about it is that it was posted by the biggest Facebook fiend on my Friend List.

Yep been there, done that. Tell her "Times change. You can too or you can be left behind crying in your soup."

I have not heard that one in so long.

I do miss the old days and how it was totally okay to you know, smack your kids on the ass now and again. Or send them outside to play for several hours. Now you have to be like joined at the hip with your kids or someone might accuse you of neglect.

I don't miss the days before video games, though.

More than once the police have knocked on our door to let us know some neighbors saw our children playing outside and were concerned.

Don't you know? You have to keep them out of direct sunlight. Also you shouldn't feed them after midnight.

Wow man. I mean damn, I could see if your kids looked malnourished or were outside crying for like four hours or something, then call the cops. People suck.

Nope. Kids playing outside with no adult. holyshitneglect

What's sad is I was kidding when I posted that in the first place. I didn't think it had really gotten that bad. I guess I'm glad my kids are in Mexico. They can play and run around and grow up like fucking kids.

Also I live kind of in the ghetto so there's always unsupervised kids around here, and no one really gives a shit.

Why I learned to cook at a very young age. That and I was sick of waiting around for my parents to get home from work, then have to wait for them to get settled before they started making dinner. Now when I am home visiting, I make all the meals. They only thing I let my parents do are the salads.
