What is your Pet Peeve????

plateauguy · Jun 10, 2013

Thought this would be a great follow up to "Inconsiderate People Suck".
Just got back from the grocery store with my wife (she needs supervision). I looked over, and low and behold, some lazy ass had pushed their grocery cart into a car. There was no excuse, the cart area was all of 15 feet away, it's nice - not raining, it was Safeway - not Wally World. Some people are just jerks. (We all know how my wife feels about grocery carts.)
My second peeve is people that don't pick up their dog's poop. I don't care if it the size of a small pony, or fits in your hand. Poop is poop - pick it up!

I have none I'm a loner so no one bothers me.

people who work in hospitals are supposed to remove their scrubs and put them in a bag to wash at home. This is because they can carry many airborne and blood born pathogens that can get people sick, they don't change yet then they go run errands in them, possibly killing many people...thats a big one of mine

When sandblasted pipes are referred to as "rusticated".

teufelhund · Jun 10, 2013

People who ask to to borrow things and return them in much worse condition than which they were lent; if at all.

bobpnm · Jun 10, 2013

People who think anyone who disagrees with them is morally or intellectually deficient.

People who lack the class to keep their morally and intellectually deficient opinions to themselves.
:twisted: :lol:

Inflexibility. When circumstances change often plans change as well.

Gee, I have so many I don't know where to begin

For this forum, anti-smoking knee jerk reactions to seeing anything tobacco related.
Grass is becoming legal finally in the U.S. and tobacco is deemed as the new 'evil weed'.

Busy body hall moniters that keep capitalizing my thread titles.

Lately, the phrase "at the end of the day" really bothers me. It's way over used.
Also, interviews with hockey players always get turned off in my house..

stupid people

locopony · Jun 11, 2013

Nancy boys. Womanly men, and manly women. Very frustrating
Oh pipe and tobacco related. Pipe snobbery either way. Smoke em if ya got em. It don't matter if its a Peterson or a Medico.

Tobacco snobbery too, be it drug store or high end in a tin. If you like it smoke it.
Reviews never bother me. I sometimes, always, never agree with them.

People who talk with their mouth full of food and people who when they eat sound like a porno sound effects machine are two of my biggest.

plateauguy · Jun 11, 2013

Phone solicitors - I'm on the "do not call" list, that means DON'T CALL me to sell something!
Quincy, you made me gag!

When people say they are going to do something I expect them to do it, like "my word is my bond." Of course there are valid excuses, but most really aren't valid.
Take for example tobacco trades. I offered up some free without the other person asking for anything, they offered in return to send me something tasty, I said that they didn't have to, but that I was open to that. They said they would send it soon, that was months ago. As I said I didn't expect anything in return, until they said they were going to. If you say you are going to do something then do it. That is my biggest pet peeve. I work with kids and honesty and being genuine are in fast decline among our kids. I'm trying to teach them to be dependable, honest, and genuine.

Electronic Zombies, people who are lost in their electronic gadgets as if the living world

before their eyes, ears and touch is of little interest, and equally obnoxious, those who

go about speaking in oratorical tones through their cell phones as if to a large auditorium

of people. They think they are just tending to business, but of course, subconsciously they

are advertising to the world what fascinating people they are, how much more important

than the onlookers they are, and how much we should crave to know and admire them.

The exhibitionism has exactly the opposite effect and convinces those around them that

they are self-absorbed, arrogant, egotistical, and truly foolish. Find a quiet spot and

project your conversation into a wall or bush, and talk more softly, if you must jabber

at length at all. Others walking, shopping, etc., don't want to hear your business,

family discussions, tucking your kids in bed, or any of it. Value your privacy!

Keeping it to pipe smoking:
I really am annoyed with reviewers who post a review based on their first bowl, knowing nothing about the blend, even liking nothing about the type of blend.

Is he supposed to smoke it for a month then give a review? If ya dont like it one is enough, and ya have to review good bad and ugly if ya gonna have some credibility.

I read the reviews then try it for myself. If I disagree .......well.......I disagree. Its ok to disagree on things.
Pet peeve : people who are angry when you disagree with them. People who feel sighted because you disagree. People who cant disagree civilly.

Life...
...don't talk to me about life!

cigrmaster · Jun 11, 2013

People who are late piss me off, it shows an incredible lack of respect.
Racists, homophobes, intolerant people who have never comprehended the phrase " Live and Let Live"
Pipe related, a pipe that requires a pipe cleaner to soak up excess moisture. Uncomfortable stems.Pipes that are supposed to be smooth yet have rusticated spots on it and claim they are going for that Japanese look. To me it looks like they are trying to save a nicely grained pipe. A pipe that will not pass a cleaner with ease.
