| People on public transport, telling the person on the other end of their mobile their current location, the fact that they're rushing home to watch the latest vacuous soap-opera-comedy-drama, etc. VERY loudly in a phoney posh accent. |

| No problem-but if you had meant to, you'd probably be right-it does sound a bit snotty and cynical(chuckle!) |

It annoys me to no end when people have no idea who Frank is
and I have to, like, explain who he is. How do you start
to explain who Frank is?
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Frank |

And on the fifth day, God created Frank.
I know what you're going to say.
Love, love, my season |

You do?
I was going to say that I have eaten so much dark chocolate in
the last five minutes that I feel high.
So what did God create on the sixth day, Homers?
A pet peeve of some kind?

drivers yacking on cell phones
drivers who suddenly realize they're in the wrong lane for a turn and then signal, stop, and block traffic, when all they really need to do is go around the block to catch their turn off, but no: it's much simpler to impede twenty other drivers than to inconvenience their precious selves
people who can't support themselves or their families and then have another child, so the rest of us can support their "innocent" child
people who cheat their way through college
people who think ice skating is a sport
people who think to need is to deserve
people who try to drive rear wheel drive vehicles on snow or ice
people who can't think without speaking
people who think "Imagine" is a profound song

People who eat so much dark chocolate when I don't have any right now in my house...and on the 6th day God created Black chocolate!

I always used to get annoyed when people opened windows during allergy season. That doesn't happen so much anymore, though. I think it was mostly my dad.
And Holiday Son, what's wrong with talking to animals? Isn't that good for them?

People who invite you to a mutual friend's bday party at a restaurant and send an email saying that each guest should pay for their own meal and food will be reasonably priced in the $7-12 range but when you get the restaurant the cheapest thing on the menu is $36, second cheapest $42.

That's not a pet peeve -- that's an outrage.
 Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

I woulda just robbed someone. Although you'd probably go to jail...
I guess that's not too good of an idea.
It's 1969, okay. |

Which is exactly why I skip the first full minute of the Bright Eyes album "I'm Wide Awake It's Morning," which I otherwise enjoy very much. He tells a story at the beginning of the first song, and his water-drinking features prominently. It's almost as bad as when my father sends me letters on tape -- which he always remembers to record just as he starts eating his breakfast.
The chewing of ice also is very annoying.
Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

I sometimes chew ice. It's just like water, except more frozen-ey.

Kid Card - before ordering or before paying?

Before ordering, staying or anything else. Thank gawd, the bday girl understood but her high-maintenance friend, who threw the party and sent the misleading note about how much food would cost, threw a hissy fit that six other guests took one look at the menu and left. So I wasn't the only cheapskate.

Seems like there's plenty of great places to eat in Montreal with spending too much.

Erebus, i mostly agree with you about all those things...but...don't you think that, for the most part, people driving with cell phones aren't as bad as they used to be?
I still see a lot of people talking on cell phones, but they seem to be driving a lot better. It's like people in general have adapted to the technology.

I agree with Erebus about cell phones, the song "Imagine", and irresponsible Malthus-neglecting child-bearers. Unfortunately, I also tend to agree with WolfManMikeLonely on vegans - not all vegans, of course, but sometimes I get the feeling that a bunch of guys in bands go vegan because it's a good image for 'the artist'. Vegetarianism is a seriously debatable issue; there are good arguments for both sides, so it pisses me off when vegans act like meat-eating is immoral and/or evil. I respect vegans, but sometimes I get the feeling that vegans don't respect me.
What really angers me is when people refer to "Daylight Saving Time" as "Daylight Savings Time". One refers to the time in which you set your clocks back an hour so as to save daylight. The other refers to a time in which one puts daylight into his savings account at an ATM.
I don't like it when people add an "s" onto something that's not supposed to have an "s" on it. Like the restaurant "Ruby Tuesday". It's not "Ruby Tuesday's". If there were supposed to be an apostrophe followed by an s, there would be. It's not supposed to be possessive. |

Gotta disagree with you on this one, jimmy.

Along the same lines, "mother-in-laws" is incorrect. It's "mothers-in-law." Little things like that drive me insane, too.
