The Pet Peeve Thread

[Mimi]

People who can not admit they are wrong even when you prove it to them.
Soggy cereal.
People who drive like their ass hairs are on fire in bad weather.
Unflushed toilets.
People who take threads and posts in a silly forum far too seriously.
Stuffy or runny noses.
Potholes.
Women who hang on my man like he's a friggin coat rack.
Egotistical people.
People with IQ's of 72 who walk around proclaiming "I hate stupid people!"
Crackers that go stale within 10 minutes of the plastic being open.
Snow and ice trudged onto my carpet from outside.
Dead batteries.
POPUPS!!!!
Games I suck at.
Seats that are too small for my fat ass to fit into.
@%*&#^ covers on CD's and DVD's purchased from the store that can not be removed with knives, teeth, and a blow torch.

I hear you two about safe driving, but it's more than a peeve.

Another pet peeve: spelling errors of the following words (my own spelling is often wrong, so feel free to correct it any time)

Anyway, here are the words that are so often mangled:
SEPARATION
DESPERATION
MASTURBATION

are the concepts related?

I think when Cat said black, she meant urban. Actually, "poser" is derived from the French "poseur," but it's also used by punk-rockers and metalheads, so it's not urban in origin. http://www.answers.com/poser&r=67 😛

Yeah i know the background of the word, but im just con diggily fused about how the hell that word could be considered "urban"

 

[blondie46]

Another pet peeve I have is when people put a drinking glass, cup, can or bottle on a wooden table. (without a coaster or napkin)

::Weirdest face ever:: since when is poser a black thing or word?? Im not black but this reminds me of me bein bitched at for sayin "im gonna just chill tonight" since chill is a black word? Please show me the phoenetic breakdown as to how poser is a black word and used in black context.


Yes people choose to be depressed and people can choose not to be depressed. They also choose to be "woe is me" and annoying with it
And i refer to movies like cinderella man, which is very historically inaccurate and bad acting with crowe, but was made only to contend for an oscar. It was also proclaimed to be oscar contending before it was even released! Also are you joking? Kong and LOTR were proclaimed hits before they hit the current screen. If you didnt think this then you must never have read any fiction epics or watched movies before to see that. Yeah i guess people didnt think spiderman and matrix were gonna be Über hits too. And watch out, im not german and i used a german word

1. I know, because I spent 3 years in a black neighborhood. 'Man, that guy is such a poser!' It's overused to excess with the word 'playa'.

2. They can choose to do something about it. And I'm not talking about being overmedicated by the doctor as we discussed earlier.

3. I have seen the LOTR as well as read the books. I was also making sure you were awake. I might agree with you about Cinderella Man. It looks pretty boring to me. But even though the Passion of the Christ did not get an oscar, it did get an award for best score.

4. Uber? Isn't that used to excess, too? Like Mondo? That word is so 1991.

 

[Kitten_Kat]

My pet peeve is when people make fun of me because I prounonce 'shopping bag' 'shopping beg' QUIT making fun of my accent -_-

 

[catapy_girl]

My brother used to speak with a lisp. He'd say "Can I axe you something?"

 

[Storm_Cat]

LMFAO!!! I can relate!

Rofl ...

... two words ... kitchen matches ... !! 😀

 

[catapy_girl]

I don't think that's a lisp.

I hear people say it ALL the time that speak normally otherwise.

I think it's kind of like when people say "libary" instead of "library"

When someone says "Can I axe you a question"

I usually go "Axe? That sounds painful"

That's because the r is silent to them. LOL. I usually say, "What you are going to axe me? Chop off my head?"

 

[maniactickler]

Maniac, did you get that from the "cell phone" part of my thread, or what?

Nope, but its all part of the road rules issue i have. especially women on cell phones. you know pretty much every womans conversation on a cell phone is more than likely meaningless gossip and BS.

 

[catapy_girl]

Reminds me of that insurance company where the lady is putting on her makeup, drinking coffee, looking for shit, and talking on a cell phone and nearly causes an accident.

Passion of the christ was not made for movie awards, it was made because Mel Gibson wanted to make a movie depiciting the agony of Jesus christ in his final days. Before the movie came out, it was not heralded as a masterpiece, more it was lowballed by jewish authorities fearing it would cause anti semitism. Before cinderella man came out, same with monsters ball, before these movies came out, they were heralded as oscar potential\hits.

Poser-Maybe where you are it is a black term but where i am its not, things in your universe does not mean that other people share the same experiences or viewpoints. If you do a definition search, it is a valid word, not containing any racial or segregatory basis.Go yell at the metal band macabre too, they are white boys with a song called "slaughter thy poser" Imagine it! Using "black slang" and OLD ENGLISH!!!!!!::screams::

And Uber is a german word, so it can be used as much as one may damn please, ITS DA BOMB! lmao

 

[Goodieluver]

people who assume a lack of speaking ability denotes a lack of mental intelligence
