Hi Everyone, Do you have any pet peeves? if so what are they? I have so many, I cannot count them all. So, I will tell you the ones that really urk me...What is it about food that makes people blow their nose? Did you ever notice that when when you go out to eat, Never, never fails someone has to blow their nose? I think thats sooo disgusting! I understand you have to blow your nose. But, please go to the bathroom. I'm Eating !!! Next, what about people who just dig not pick but, dig in their nose and dont care? PLEASE USE A TISSUE. Next, the digging in the ear and looking at? some people wipes it on their clothes. ILL........So, I guess you have figured it out by now, one of my biggest pet peeves is peoples bodily habits. We won't go there with the sneezing and not covering their mouths. This one is more poersonal. I cannot leave my house unless my bed is made. I do not know why, All I know is I cannot walk into my bedroom, and the bed is unmade. Drives me nuts. I have way to many to go on..But, I would love to know your pet peeves. If any of mine especially the ones about peoples bad body habits annoy you, I would love to hear about it. Please let me know I am not the only one .....

Personally I think there are some Pet peeves that we as people have that will vary from person to person, but people picking their nose and or ears all of the time does Bug me, and especially if they are eating them, or doing it in public. To me this is totally grouse, and wish they would do it in the privacy of their own home. Another one is people who NEVER seem to mind how they Smell. They continue to wear the same clothes day in and day out most of the time not taking time to make sure they are clean, and come to work or somewhere smelling like Body odors, urin, etc. And then these are the same people that tend to like to sit where a lot of other people are often removing their shoes and you just want to gag. Worse yet when you try to talk to them about it nothing ever is done to change it either. Final one here I will share for now is people who tend to think they are always better than you. No matter what you are going thru, even if you are having a Great day, they always make themselves look better. They are the ones who always flaunt something New or want you to look at something, always thinking they are perfect with no faults, but when you make a mistake even if it is Small, watch out.

Thank you so much for your answer. That is so true the body odor!! And I know way to many people who think they are better than anyone! Those are the people, I just let talk.. I try not to give them to much conversation. Sometimes that does'nt work either. I know, because that just leaves the door wide open for them to just talk about themselves and what they have. But, when you really look at them, They really do not have anything. They are very miserable people inside. Talking about theirselves and what they have, is their way to make them feel better. Its so sad... But, definitely a PET PEEVE!!!!

Yes. I have a few pet peeves myself, but bthere's only one maybe that I can relate to. It's about slow drivers out that don't know how to drive. As you may know or some of you don't know, I deliver Chinese cuisine and when I go out on a delivery or a few, I get in back of these slowa-- drivers and they pretend they don't see anyone behind them trying to make some extra $$$ and sometimes I think they do it for a reason. I think they do it to try and piss you off and slow you down so that you can't make the $$$ that you wanna make. I try my best to ignore 'em but what good is that gonna do. And then, I flash my lights at them and they still ignore ya. Like what is it with these people? Are some people just ignorant or what? I guess you have to deal with them sometimes cause there's nothing you can actually do about it but stay behind them and wait until they make a turn or get out of your way, right. And, then there's the Chinese themselves that tick me off sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I like them in a way, but they just seem to look out for their own. You work with them and they try not to help you out, they give their driver's all the deliveries and when you're up to deliver you have to take what they give you. And, we as the drivers that know where wer'e going, it's like they don't even bother to care if we make any $$$. It's just me and a Caucasian guy and two of their drivers. No need to worry, I won't be doing this for the rest of life. There's other things that I can either turn back to or do something different.

i agree with the blowing nose and when they have to look in the kleenex. . Also chewing with your mouth open, or smacking your gum. I hate when people interrupt, or don't listen and just assume. I also hate when somebody touches my plate or food. I hate the toilet seat left up and not replacing the toilet paper. I hate washing all of the dishes, cleaning the kitchen, turn off light then every body wants to eat again wtf? These are just a few lol
