Agreed. I hate the ones that bike on the road and then on the sidewalk so they can ignore whatever law is convenient. If they are on the road, I will treat them like a driver and make sure they are safe. If they are on a sidewalk, that's fine too and I will treat you as a pedestrian. Can't be both. Pick a set of rules and I will play by them.

Never understood the "Its awkward to poop at (friend's house/school/etc) so I'll hold it and be uncomfortable for 9 hours" crowd. Everyone poops get over it. Fanning your friend sounds like a loser.

Voice changes while on the phone. Women's voices go up, the guys' voices go down. Super annoying if you are with a person you know well, listening to them do their fake voice to the unknown rough rider on the other line. I'd say it occurs in ~80% of people and I really hope I don't do it.

Annoying aspects of group discussions:

Yeah that's not what happens numbnuts. I'm not bragging that my kids can retrieve a tennis ball or bark at the UPS guy. It usually goes more like:
"Good morning CF3, boy you look tired today!"
"Yeah, lil' CF3 got sick so I didn't get much sleep."
"Oh I totally know how that is! If Smuckers gets into the trash and eats a bandaid, he really has a hard time sleeping, so I'll softly sing to him until he can calm back down in his kennel. We put him in his kennel when he's sick even though he sleeps with us most of the time. Do you sing to your kids when they're sick? If I sing to smuckers he'll sleep really well and be back to chasing squirrels around the backyard in no time! He loves chasing squirrels and bunnies! What are your kids interested in?"

Few of my pet peeves: (Work Related)
*Worked at a grocery store throughout high school, then sometimes work there during summers to make a little extra cash.
-People who ask for paper bags. It's awkward to bag and carry out.
-People who bring in their own heavy duty bags then tell me to not make them, "too heavy." No matter what you're going to be carrying all the same amount of weight.
-People who bring in used paper/plastic bags. No, just, no.
-People who are on food stamps and use it to get really good food and any food they want, then drive a really nice/expensive vehicle. BS
-When people get the smaller shopping carts, but them fill them until they're overflowing, we have bigger carts for that crap.
-Oh, you guys close in 5 min? Let me come in and take my sweet ass time to get a big ass list of groceries. I didn't want you guys to close on time anyway.
-Well maybe I shouldn't get this candy bar. Let me put it right here by the rough ridin' bread Because I'm too lazy to put it back where I found it.
-here, let me bitch at you how you are out of this kind of pop or chips, because you're out of it even though you guys aren't in charge of stocking and keeping track of it.
-you got a cart full of groceries and had them checked out and now have no way to pay for them? Thanks, I'll have fun unbagging them and putting it all back on the shelves.
There are a lot of positives I enjoy of It too though! Those are just a few, "pet peeves."

When some dumb, drunk, hooker waitress charges you $1785.50 on a $14.00 tab and you have to leave work early on a Friday morning to make sure that the stupid rough ridin' bar (Blue line) gives you back your money cause Commerce Bank won't fix it! :dubious:
Welp, guess that's what you get for going to the Blue Line, a hockey bar in KCMO.
Minksy's was closing and my friend just got in from Tampa. He was hungry. :dunno:

Sidenote: I get super annoyed with people that mess up song lyrics to the point of absolute destruction. Chick I dated thought "don't go chasing waterfalls" was don't go Jason Waterfalls. Dumped her. Another girlfriend thought "I Believe in Miracles" by Hot Chocolate was really "I believe in Malcolm" and the song was centered around Malcolm X. She thought "you sexy thing" was tied to his unique stance on segregation. Dated her till she gave a handy to my brother. Him and I are hand Eskimo brothers for life.

People who misuse "of" in place of "have" should be publicly shamed. It's so rough ridin' stupid I don't even know how it became a thing. Not sure why I remember this but on one of those standardized tests from grade school one of the multiple choice options for completing part of a sentence was WOULD OF or WOULD HAVE and I remember thinking "What kind of a dumbass thinks it's WOULD OF??" I knew the difference in 4th rough ridin' grade and anyone in 4th grade or beyond should know the difference too.
Puni's example of supposably is also puzzling, like where in the hell did the B come from?

It's pretty easy to explain, actually. Many people write how they speak. The scurrilous "of" comes from the way "have" sounds when part of a contraction (would've, could've), and often times supposedly is pronounced supposebly because it is difficult to pronounce a 'd' sound followed by a 'l' sound, since they are practically identical in terms of how your mouth produces the sounds. This results in a glottal stop, which slows down speech. Since speaking patterns tend to follow the path of least resistance, many people subconsciously swap the 'd' for 'b'--a phonetically similar consonant but one that is much easier to transition to 'l' from.

Yeah I understand the thing about pronunciation but just because it sounds like you're saying WOULD OF doesn't mean you should type it out that way. For crap's sake have some standards.
Also I'm not sure I get your explantion for supposably but since you're this board's resident cunning linguist you're probably right.

I had to go to Starbuck's on FPD because I couldn't bring myself to brave Aggieville. Anyways, the moral of the story is that the barista at Starbuck's said "expresso".
-
can someone explain "ect." instead of "etc."
-
These are all because people don't know how the words are actually spelled.
-
expecially, expresso, aks (ask), excetera are generally markers of a lower socio-economic background. It is natural for a child learning a language to substitute a more familiar sound for a less familiar sound. "Ex" sounds a lot like "esp," with the former being much more prevalent due to it being a Latin prefix. Usually these mistakes are pointed out by parents or friends and corrected at a young age. However, if your parents and friends also make the same mistake, then it never gets corrected and in fact seems totally natural. These traits are passed down through generations in these particular speech communities. Somewhere down the line, groups of people started mispronouncing it and no one bothered to correct it because they didn't know any better, and speaking correctly simply wasn't vital to their livelihoods. These groups of people would have had little or no formal education and worked manual labor jobs. They all had kids who inherited this speech trait and it went viral. It is obviously an oversimplification, but this is how regional dialects form.
I'll bet that everyone here could reflect on speech patterns they inherited growing up that they later realized sounded incredibly regional/hayseedy. Many (most?) people who matriculate to a University and/or become a professional actively work to remove these markers from their speech. Ironically, many of those same people later integrate regional/hayseedy features into their speech in order to project or feel a sense of belonging in a community.

How do you pronounce "prevalent"? Like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE-W-lnC1vA or like prE vAlent (lone E, long A as in prevail)? Because I pronounce it the first way and it drives me crazy when a co-worker pronounces it the other way.
Also, my mother says "worsh" instead of wash but I didn't inherit that.

These groups of people would have had little or no formal education and worked manual labor jobs. They all had kids who inherited this speech trait and it went viral. It is obviously an oversimplification, but this is how regional dialects form.
I'll bet that everyone here could reflect on speech patterns they inherited growing up that they later realized sounded incredibly regional/hayseedy. Many (most?) people who matriculate to a University and/or become a professional actively work to remove these markers from their speech. Ironically, many of those same people later integrate regional/hayseedy features into their speech in order to project or feel a sense of belonging in a community.
Definitely - I actually went all the way through college before I realized that human and Houston had hard "H" sounds at the start. I said "Yew-man" and "Yew-ston".
How do you pronounce "prevalent"? Like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE-W-lnC1vA or like prE vAlent (lone E, long A as in prevail)? Because I pronounce it the first way and it drives me crazy when a co-worker pronounces it the other way.
Also, my mother says "worsh" instead of wash but I didn't inherit that.
yeah, I said "worsh" growing up, and I remember correcting an adult who said "wash" when I was like 5 years old. Ha!
My dad also says days of the week with an "ee" at the end of them - Fri-dee, Satur-dee, etc. I thought the Tim McGraw song said "right as rain on a Thursday cornfield" even in college. It didn't make much sense.

It doesn't annoy me but it's very strange.

I mean, an announcer could say "Kansas City is Driving" or "The Chiefs are driving" and mean the exact same thing. Both subjects refer to a plurality, even though the former is singular in form. I like the spirit over the letter approach. A less controversial example would be "staff," which is often (correctly imo) treated as a plural noun in American.

Well the pants I have on right now have fake back pockets. But there are also women's pants that have fake front pockets.
I'm not talking about small pockets, I'm talking about there is a fake lip of the pocket (whatever it is called) on the outside but actually there is not even the fabric on the inside that creates the pocket.

You don't drive around MHK everyday. The bike lanes help so they don't slow down traffic but changing lanes without signaling, not dismounting for crosswalk crossings, and blowing through stop signs. It's a miracle nobody has died yet.

It is much more serious for a car to not signal than a bike. Drivers are the cause of like 90% of car/bike accidents and also like 90% of the bitching about how dangerous it is to have bikes and cars on the road together.

First of all I never pass bikers if they are riding in the middle of the street. Second there have been times where a cyclist has been on the right side of the road and they just swerve left onto a side street without signaling.

what don't you understand? It's just our fictitious representation of how many times around the sun we have obtained. your birthday just signifies that you have completed that many "years"(revolutions) and are starting your age + 1 years of life. which is based on a fictitious way of counting our perceived time in this universe.

fiction for thought.
-
well there has to be consciousness(or equivalent) present to acknowledge it, so like all great answers, it depends.
-
consciousness is more likely to be fictional than birthdays in my estimation
-
consciousness is infinitely more viable than the view of birthdays being in any way relevant. if the earths revolution was twice as fast or vice versa then i am way "older" or "younger" than I am right now. birthdays mean nothing other than our fictitious meaning for them.

you didn't say there were not relevant, you said they were a fictitious representation of how many times around the sun we have obtained ant that your birthday just signifies that you have completed that many "years"(revolutions) and are starting your age + 1 years of life and which is based on a fictitious way of counting our perceived time in this universe.

and then you said that consciousness is infinitely more viable than the view of birthdays being in any way relevant and that if the earths revolution was twice as fast or vice versa then you are way "older" or "younger" than you are right now and that birthdays mean nothing other than our fictitious meaning for them.
-
my point was there is no such thing as time, it is relative in our understanding of it. we use our clock system based on oscillations of an atom, which is what we perceive but is not the governing essence of "time" in the universe.
-
therefore, fictitious.

well we are all plugged into the matrix so sadly the terminator is fiction too :frown:

I would say that time is a tool we created to measure change in a system, it is no more "fictitious" than a ruler or a scale.

in the context of using it in place of "use" or a synonym. I do think utilize has a somewhat distinct meaning that is of use in certain technical forms. It's abuse rate is high, people think more syllables means more smarter.

on second thought, utilize has no value. I was thinking of "utilization".

I will listen to a podcast on this subject and let the liberal media tell me what to think

what if you said irrespective instead? try it.
doesn't it feel good?
-
no. irrespective is a soft weaselly word for soft weaselly times. irregardless stands resolute, demanding attention and deference.
-
what about "regardless"? give her a spin.
doesn't it feel nice? don't you feel powerful using a word that doesn't immediately double negative it's own self into oblivion?

why would i use a word that demonstrates it's lack of regard only the once, when a powerful and melodic word stands at the ready, twice as lacking in regard?
i wouldn't, of course.

the word "American" in the title of a movie/tv show when it has clearly been put there only because the producers could not think of a title, so they just made it
"American + <word(s) that describes the genre>"
american horror story
american crime
american gangster
american psycho
american sniper
american assassin
the american part does not mean anything at all. they just want to put the other word(s) in your head so you know what genre the movie is, but you can't just call a move "gangster" so they add "american" in front of it and boom done. drives me nuts.
note: this does NOT apply to titles where "american" is necessary:

When someone has a runny nose or whatever causes that nose noise where you're sucking snot/phlegm/gross back into your throat and swallowing it. The sounds are gross and all of the loud throat clearing. This same guy makes these sounds during his lunch break. It drives me up the wall.
Blow your rough ridin' nose and spit that crap out of your throat. My God!

I guess considering this, ripping my undies in half is the best case scenario. JUST ONE TIME I allowed my bare foot skin to touch the locker room floor and I instantly got a plantar wart to battle for the next year.

my office manager like, hates it when you ask her to order office supplies. Gets really snippy, like she's above it or we're implying she isn't doing her job right or something.

I'm at a satellite office so we don't have anyone here that actually deals with that stuff. We just have a guy that goes to the home office once a week anyway and picks up stuff while there (if someone informs him).
There are also no women in this office so the women's bathroom has kind of been unspokenly decided to be the pooping bathroom.

None of this is a peeve tho, let alone a pet peeve so maybe some modding is required

having one bathroom for defecating and one for urinating seems like a better way of using two bathrooms than having one multipurpose bathroom for each sex, even when both sexes are represented.

there are like 5 or 6 people using the printer on my floor and we probably refill the paper once or twice a day

Why is it that it takes women like five minutes from the time they open the car until they actually put the car in gear and start moving. I mean, I can open the door, get in the car, put my seatbelt on, start the car and be gone in like ten seconds. Women get in, fuckass around until your next birthday, and then decide to move. I guess the same applies when exiting the car. I stop, put the car in park, shut it off, get the eff out and take off. They seem to want to wait until the engine cools before exiting the vehicle. Could someone shed some insight on this? @Mrs. Gooch?

When riding a motorcycle and you approach an intersection where you have right-of-way, and a doofus rolls through the stop sign without even looking at traffic coming from your direction. Don't they know that a collision for the motorcyclist will end very badly? It's not because I'm invisible, I ride with hi-viz helmet and jacket, these jerks are just too lazy to look before entering an intersection. I actually spoke with an idiot that did that, and he said "I saw you, I was going to stop"--couldn't tell by the dumbass look on his face.

I don't recall a person who identifies as female calling me "bud." I'll need to think about that some more.
Lately, I've had a couple of males (roughly the same age as me) call me "bud." Now I'm wondering "Am I the type of person who gives off a vibe that invites others to call them "bud"?" This is is really unsettling the more I think about it...

Podcast in general is a gross term, just call it a show
-
the reason why it became a known as a "podcast" is because people used to listen to the shows from their ipods, which was a rudimentary device from the early aughts used to listen to digital media. then the portmanteau term, like so many, became entrenched in our social conscious and outlived the humble environment that spawned it. pod. cast. pod + cast. it's great and much better than its early alternatives like, "netcast" lmao

People sending emails with importance marked "High"
Question: Has anyone in the history of email ever sorted their inbox by importance?
Answer: No, never. Even knowing where to change the importance of an email you are composing makes you an bad person.

One of our client's regional managers used to send every email flagged as High importance along the word CRITICAL in the subject line. We eventually had to tell her that if everything is CRITICAL, then nothing is CRITICAL.

Perhaps. I occasionally (today) notice that someone did it. It always makes me think less of the person and never makes me treat their email more importantly.

I have to send out periodic long emails with more explanation that I normally would to a handful of higher-ups per a template honed after many back and forths. I slipped into the millennial and did a "Too Long. Didn't Read." at the end of the last email since it was overly long.

Uh, you're smarter than this. I'm "staff" level, but this was just one of those ridiculous schemes for a company to spend millions to renovate the floors, add loungy areas, and think they're getting everyone (no matter the level) to not recluse and be more teamworky and inviting to convo/collaboration.
Now people try hilariously bad ways to make their spots closed in w/ the tall dry erase boards, filing cabinets, etc., though.
And I just work from home more often than not now, so it kind of did the opposite for me.
-
I'm very much against the open office floor plans. It inhibits workflow. Encourages the chatterboxes to interrupt everybody's day. The pet peeves thread is loaded with annoying coworker crap. I'd propose most wouldn't be noticed without the crappy open floor designs of the cube life.
Thus, I'm quite happy about having a door when I have to be in the office.

Even if you're lucky and they didn't infect the food, just getting those disgusting things off the plate is an ordeal. First you have to get them far enough away that you can't still smell them but also if you pick them up then no amount of soap will scrub that pickle stench from your fingers

Guys. I have one and only one pet peeve. Like, if I'm on a web browser (almost always mobile) and click something and want to then immediately click something else right after the screen starts to change, often the page content will resize or reposition just as I'm attempting the second click and cause me to click on something that I didn't wish to click on. So, then, I have to wait to go back a page from this page that I did not want at all in order to click on what I wanted when I really didn't want to have to wait on that page to fully load in the first place. I do not like it AT ALL.

He's the only person I know who owns a Jeep and lives 3 blocks away from the office and can't make it to work after an inch of snow. Now that our Manager has left for another opportunity, he barely checks in. We're going to lose this perk and I'm gonna want to choke him out.

I'm with kRusty on this one. Its stupid and just slows everything down. Old men like to back in parking to prove that they can.
-
if you drive a truck and you have to park between 2 cars, most spots you can't turn into without having to back up to straighten out. then backing out of those spots you run into similar situations in tight parking lots. much easier backing in and then pulling out (that's what she said).

A company I used to work for mandated that we back into all parking stalls with company vehicles for safety reasons.

Mrs Wacky backs in her large ass Tahoe into our garage every day and it drives me nuts. Absolutely no benefit of doing it either.
-
Have the never-backers not driven a car with the sweet new backup cameras? With those guidelines it’s often easier and faster to back up into a tight spot than pull straight in.
-
I’ll back into spaces every once in awhile. The only time I ever do tho is if I won’t be holding someone else up
-
You guys are like old uncles
-
I understand backing in for tailgating. Anything else is just trying to show off.
-
If you back into a space your truck nuts won't dangle out in the aisle for everyone to see.
-
I'm inclined to give big truck folks a pass. But in my garage, the vast majority are small cars. Simply no good reason.

I've never seen anyone back into a spot without straightening out at least twice. I don't believe it's happened.

I'm constantly amazed at how people will spend 3,4,5 times as long looking for a space closer to the door as they would have spent had they instead taken one of many open spaces just a little farther away.

It's easier to get my truck into a tight parking spot by backing in. Prior to back up cameras, I never backed in anywhere.

Has everyone seen those sweet back in parking spots they put on busy streets sometimes? I’d like to shake the hand of whoever came up with those. Truly a modern engineering marvel.

There’s a whole Wikipedia page on it!

This is a huge peeve for me. Like, there’s an entire rough ridin' parking lot full of spaces and you park between 2 cars and I can’t even open the door all the way to get out. OR when someone parks right next to me when I’m the only car within 5 spaces in any direction.
-

i love seeing people (huge idiots) pull through angled spaces. nothing more convenient than pulling a 135er to get out of a parking spot.

Unless the people using the parking lot are all smart and treat those angled parking spaces like back in spaces (see above post)!

They have those in river market

I used them with regularity for roughly a 3 year period. One thing I observed is that a significant portion of the population sucks ass at back-in angle parking.

So maybe they are just a big shot and don't want a sleazy sales guy getting their contact info.

He goes, “Sir can you wait until it clears!?”
About 374 milliseconds later it clears. I have my mask on, he gets the dirtiest look I’ve ever given a human being.
If I wanted to steal under $3 of merchandise I would just grab and go. What the mother rough ridin' eff.

Had a similar database we used when I worked in TV news. Could look up basically anyone with a simple search and everything was there. addresses, phone numbers, work history, relatives and friends, old tickets and lawsuits. Pretty wild. I think it cost a lot of money for the subscription.
Don't remember what it was called. One of the smart guys on here will probably know it.
i think this is called the internet now

When did they start making cereal boxes so tall and skinny? They used to have a wide firm base but now the dimensions are so messed up that sometimes they won't stand on their own (I'm talking about you - LIFE cereal). Also cereal related, when someone rips the bag down the side instead of just opening the top of the bag and then the cereal pours out in a turbulent and irregular fashion.

Agreed. I know it's frowned upon to travel right now, but we did two trips this year where we felt like we could social distance from others. The beach and the mountains. Places to hike and places to stay through family.

With the exception of something like a hamburger with toppings on the side it's kind of silly to order something that includes stuff you don't want. Just order something else. Dishes with onions have onions for a reason.

Order from places that don't put onions in. I don't know why fried rice wouldn't have onions but if it was designed to not have onions it would be way better than one designed to have onions that doesn't

If you request "no onions" you are giving the cook extra work to get a worse dish. If you pick out the onions in the restaurant you are insulting the cook. Do it at home or order something different in the restaurant
Also I bet you eat onions all the time and don't realize it
-
Like I said, it's trivial to me to remove them myself so personally I don't make those kinds of requests because it is more work. Lol at a cook being insulted for removing chunks of onions, maybe they should consider a different line of work that has less subjectivity.

Onions are actually good. Unlike fruit in salad :yuck:

Sometimes you miss an onion and you feel the crunch when you chew and then your whole mouth is filled with onion juice and it doesn't go away for an hour (#petpeeve). It definitely makes me appreciate the times I didn't miss an onion.

For most toppings this is A-OK (extra lettuce on that soft taco, por favor). If you try to pull something like ordering an old fashioned with extra sugar you're kind of a monster.

you don't think people at mcdonald's take pride in their work? also, do you really think a family-run chinese restaurant would rather have seven take his business elsewhere as opposed to just making some stupid fried rice without onions for him. they are onions. it's fried rice. that family is running a business so they can pay a mortgage and car payments. will he get an eye roll? maybe, maybe not. but i guarantee they'd rather make it for him then have him go somewhere else which is what you recommended he do. we aren't talking about the french laundry or gary danko here.

Topping off fluids with an oil change should be agreed upon as part of the service or not requested.
Keeping your fluids topped off between services is important to your vehicle and to your peace of mind. Our top off policy helps provide this piece of mind. With every Jiffy Lube Signature Service® Oil Change, we provide complimentary fluid top off service on vital fluids including motor oil (the same type of oil purchased originally), transmission, power steering, differential/transfer case and washer fluid. Just stop by within 3,000 miles of your service mileage and we will top off up to 2 quarts per fluid, as needed.
https://www.jiffylube.com/auto-services/fluids/fluid-top-off
The option to take a little more off is a standard part of a haircut, so all good.

this is definitely the closest but the lime juice macerates it a bit (when I make guac I soak the onion and jalaps for a few minutes before mixing in the rest but I'm sure not everyone does this)
still I think guac qualifies as a topping
