It's that time again....another top 5 list. This time I would love to hear about your pet peeves. Now, again, please be appropriate and no comments that might hurt someone's feelings. For example,I would probably start crying if I read, "Ms. Major's spelling mistakes".
So, what drives you batty? What "does your head in"? (Doing my head in is an English term and my mom uses it way too much!)
~Major
I am a bit OCD so I have a lot of pet peeves but I think these are my big ones.
Major's Top 5:
1. People who don't use their blinkers and then come to a complete stop before making a turn. Oh man...that really gets my road rage going.
2. People who interrupt me in mid-sentence as I am speaking.
3. People who not only answer but also talk on their cellphone while at the movie theater. (Any kind of noise at the movie theaters drives me batty)
4. People who litter. I used to get so mad at my friends in high school for littering so I told them to give their trash to me. I would come home with all kinds of junk in my pockets. Hey, I was green even before it became cool!
5. People who mess up my alphabetized cd and movie collections.
In college my pet peeve would be the guys who when I introduced myself as Major would respond, "So...what's your major, Major?" and then laugh really hard. Yeah, good one. Never heard that one before!!!
P.S. Again-remember to be appropriate! I have the power of delete and as you have seen, I will use it.

haha i am first
--I hate at Shaw's when people go through your line while talking on their cell phone.
--I hate bad speliing.
--I hate when bicyclists think their cars and ride in front of you going 20mph under the speed limit.
--I hate how Monopoly takes forever to play.
I love F-man's NN (nickname) for me, Feelskies.
I really dislike the talking on the cellphone while they are in line too! It happens to me at JCrew and it is so rude. I actually dislike it as a fellow customer as well. It takes longer for them to get through the line because they are so distracted. Your bike one was a good one too Feelskies!
1. Getting called strange names (sugar, honey, babe, etc.) by Francis
1.) I don't like it when people touch my things without permission unless I know them very well.
2.) I don't like keep away. Great, you have my hat. I'm proud of your accomplishment.... tool.
3.) I don't like getting hit. I mean c'mon can't we talk about it?
4.) I don't like being let down. If you're going to call me, do it. Don't say it and not do it, because then you have my hopes up for nothing.
5.) Eavesdropping and/or butting in on conversations. Hey, if I am going to tell you it, I'll invite you over, or you know, maybe you should just turn around and eat a cookie.
Oh Mark. They are all terms of endearment. He just cares for you. Do you have any others?
Francis-the descriptions of your pet peeves were killer. I especially liked the keep away one. Too funny. But, on the other side, I don't like being let down either.
I would have to somewhat agree with mark, except the only one that truly bugs me is "babe"
also I don't like how everyone says Joevana now...
I probably should cut back on my calling of people "hun" and "dear". I am noticing I am saying them a lot more for some reason.
Joe-I promise to never call you Joevana.Unless maybe when I need fighting words.
I know things.... but anyway. I should probably stop calling people babe, sugar, honey, etc. and hitting on Mark. I should really stop hitting on Mark. *Sigh* this is going to be tough.
thank you major, atleast someone wont say it
Although I noticed that I guess Mark does mind that I hit on him.... just that I don't call him pet names in the process. Evs... it's done. Rejoice, Mark, I know you will.
i would rejoice, if i thought it would actually happen
Joevana is so much better than "Manaye"
Pet Peeve: People who use the wrong (there, their, they're) or (your, you're).
i prefer to refer to you cutie pies as "is that a Man Aye?"
Mark's made me think of another one. People who confuse the use of "affect" and "effect"
mark you're pet peeve is very true i hate when people are so stupid you know their just dumb, anyway your known as manaye now
I have a smile at the thought of Mark getting a headache just now.
i broke a pencil just reading that, joe
Pet Peeve: When people do things for the sole purpose of annoying someone.
mark you must be annoyed constantly then
Goal: Annoying Mark. He has a lot of pet peeves and I will be sure their all agrivated.
believe me, that goal has been accomplished plenty of times
mark you're so pregnant!
I just took that out of context and laughed. A LOT. You can add another pet peave. Francis' and Joe's (fantastik) ability to twist simple phrases into a delightful reality.
a.k.a. our minds are in the gutter!
Pet Peeve: How everything I say is turned into a double entendre.
innuendo!!!
In YOU'RE End oh!
INNUENDO!
Oh, just remembered... I hate it when I fall. It doesn't happen as much as it used to, but it's still not fun. Don't ask.
thats not really a pet peeve though, its more of a statement
Wow! Francis and Joe-you guys are lucky Mark puts up with your shenanigans! I agree with the their and your pet peeve yet I unfortunately do it a lot myself and don't realize it till after I have already done it. I also get hear and here wrong a lot. I blame it on my speedy mind and quick typing skillz.
Joe, I am sorry that the name hurts you oh so much. I will refrain from calling you Joevana, except for at Shaw's. However, Joeyo is not out of the question.
innuendo.
Just do it.
I don't like it when people chomp/make a lot of noise when eating!
I also don't like bad hygiene.
I don't like know-it-alls.
I don't like braggarts.
I don't like it when people can't take a joke.
I don't like when people cheat.
I don't like it when people steal (MY STUFF).
I don't like it when people graffiti.
I don't like it when people act like fair-weather friends. (When nobody else is around they like you, but when "cooler" people come around, they try to embarrass you and don't have time for you!)
