There are many things in life that are just TOO irritating not to address here and now. Our lives are far too short not to confront these issues that are forced upon us by our inconsiderate fellow human beings.
Check out this list and see if I've included any of your pet peeves.
1. People who spit their used (chewed) chewing gum on the ground where others can step on the sticky wads as they walk along the parking lot, sidewalks, etc. Since I don't chew gum, I certainly don't want to take used wads of gum home with me!
2. While stopped at a stop light, a vehicle pulls up next to you with a boom box blasting a rap song with more profane words used by all of the sailors in the world in a one year period. Usually, the song can be heard clearly over your stereo and with the air conditioner on to boot.
3. People who walk their dog(s) past my corner yard and let their dog(s) take a dump on my grass. I don't let my dogs poop in their yard so I don't want their animals to use my yard as a bathroom!
4. Drivers who don't, or can't, drive the speed limit on the expressway and/or highway. My pet peeve here is that when I'm driving the legal speed limit and come over a hill only to find a vehicle driving at turtle speed at the bottom of the hill. Can't tell you how many times I've almost plowed into the rear of one of these snails.
5. Waiting in line at the cashier in a grocery store. The wait is longer while a woman with several large diamond rings, designer purse, and expensive artificial nails uses her W.I.C. coupons and Food Stamp Card to pay for her groceries. To make this an even more irritating pet peeve, I see her loading her groceries into the truck of a Lexus sedan. I wish I could afford such a vehicle and still have John Q Taxpayer buy my groceries!
There are probably numerous other pet peeves that I have missed, but I will try to update these as I collect them. Have a pet peeve free day!
