Pet Peeves..& Don't you dare burst my bubble!

Some things just annoy me to no end. They drive me up the wall. That really steams me. That really burns me up. I mean, I’m filled with a white hot rage!

Sorry, didn’t mean to go overboard but the last few lines are said in How I Met Your Mother (S04E04) by Barney Stinson.

List of Pet Peeves (Don’t judge me that this is my longest list so far…My excuse is that I’m getting better at this)

1.  People who throw good food away: There are 925million starving people in the world and you can throw good food away? There is no reason that can make me change my mind on this one. Food can be frozen, given to someone else (even a cat) but definitely not in the trash.
2. People, who no matter what, relate to something you have done and try to one-up you
3. Ignorant people
4. Grammatical Errors: Yes, I’m a grammar nazi. Applies to both writing and speaking.
5. Cooking for a picky eater: You know the type: they don’t eat mushrooms, don’t eat chicken, don’t eat anything with dairy in it. My guideline: TWO dietary requirements max/person.
6. Someone standing over my shoulder while I’m cooking or writing (or basically doing anything that requires concentration)
7. People who take too long in a long line: I can’t understand people who stand in line chatting about something and when they get to the front, they start deciding what to order! The chat couldn't wait till after you decided?
8. People who don’t look at you when you’re having a conversation



Just to illustrate the barbaric behaviour that this is!

9. People who drink directly out of the milk or juice carton/bottle
10. People who use their own saliva-soaked spoon to scoop food from a communal plate
11. People who sit next to you in public transport when there are other seats available
12. People who don’t cover their mouth while coughing or sneezing
13. Writing in CAPS-LOCK ALL THE TIME: YES, BECAUSE I SPEAK LIKE THIS, LIKE I’M ALWAYS ANGRY AND SHOUTING EVEN WHEN I’M SAYING, “I’M SO SORRY TO HEAR YOUR FRIEND HAS CANCER!”
14. When you really want a picture taken, the photographer takes 2-3 shots but it still comes out out-of-focus or off-centre!
15. When someone leaves their phone number at the end of a long message and they say it so fast you can't understand it and have to listen multiple times to figure it out 

P.S. Just a sign that babies are just the cutest things on the planets. Just too adorable!
