Not a pet peeve: I just noticed the “Mod” badges are the same badges used on Club Penguin :P That brings back memories

 

Pet Peeves:

All hell has broken loose here as Garth Brooks has canceled 5 concerts which were to be held in Croke Park (Google it for more thrilling information). My Pet Peeve is people are saying GarEth, IT’S NOT GARETH! (That and ahhh anyone wanna buy 200,000 cowboy hats?)

The word ‘moist’- *shudders*

People chewing with their mouth open

People who litter

People who blast their music in their cars so pedestrians can hear this loud (it’s always dance) music pounding out on the pavement.

 

INTROVERTS UNITE! Separately....in your own homes!

I’m with you on the “blasting thing” crap, but it’s normally that boom boom boom bass crap that blows your ears out! I don’t like it when people scrape metal on metal, the sound just makes my skin crawl! Also people who hate the Beatles, but that’s just a given!

And all the crappy acronyms and the misspelling (I’m the one who spells correctly in texting except when we go over a bump) and texting in general.

Saw that. Very clever selling all the tickets and then going after permission to actually stage the concerts.

Yeah, like those. Especially when you use them all in a sentence (no words at all). That pisses me off.

Parents who do not stop their baby from crying in a restaurant. Does an infant really need to be in a restaurant that does not have a likeness of Chuck E. Cheese on the building? It pleases me to no end when a responsible parent calms the child or simply takes them out of the dining area until said baby shuts its “binky” holster.

Just once, I’d love to follow the lead of Brian on Family Guy

Or a movie theater! It’s hard to watch A Hard Day’s Night with little kids crying!

I can’t remember the last time I made it through an entire meal at a restaurant without a crying baby. Every time one starts up now, we just say “ah, there it is” and keep eating (hopefully by then we have food to occupy us).

Even so, I paul-mccartneya-hard-days-night-john-7, and a-hard-days-night-ringo-12inside every time I hear it.

Restaurants, however, serve alcohol. a-hard-days-night-george-9

That thing on YouTube where (as I’ve mentioned) people put their title in all caps with infinite exclamation and/or question marks, and the thumbnail shows an unflattering picture of them in shock Photoshopped onto a cheap background.

This is 90% of popular YouTube now ’cause nobody likes new stuff. It’s the same reason as why we have all these viral trends.
