August 10, 200719 yr 1. Why do I seem to mangle every single cereal box that I try to open? If I don't destroy the cardboard box right off the bat (and that's about a 90 percent probability); than I will most certainly tear up the bag inside; or at the very least, cause the contents to settle to a point where the inner bag of cereal is two inches wider that the box. 2. Why do they cram aluminum foil, saran wrap, etc. inside a box so small that the roll doesn't have room to spin? 3. Why doesn't anyone realize that when you're in traffic and there are signs saying "RIGHT LANE ENDS", you're supposed to merge into the left lane when you get a chance? Not hang on the right shoulder until the right lane ends (like the sign said); then give you the evil eye (or worse) when you're alongside them. 4. When exactly did the word "like" replace quotation marks? Was it like, 15 or 20 years ago? 5. Why is the toilet paper in the vast majority of public bathrooms - when there is toilet paper stocked, that is - so thin that you can read through it? I'll stop now and let the rest of the BGP community chime in...
August 10, 200719 yr Two words mcpapa.....Anger Management Here's my pet peeve.....When I order "with no cheese", I mean I don't want cheese.
August 10, 200719 yr My pet peeve is people from Michigan getting in the fast lane and going the speed limit and not getting out if the way.
August 10, 200719 yr My pet peeve is people from Michigan getting in the fast lane and going the speed limit and not getting out if the way. Amen to that!!! People running traffic lights and stop signs needs to be added to my list.
August 10, 200719 yr Warm milk AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My wife like to set the fridge on the middle setting which barely cools it down. I darn near want frost on the glass.
August 10, 200719 yr People hurrying to run red lights, or at stop signs they don't stop, or someone pulls out in front of you and you look in the rear view mirror and there isn't a car for miles behind you, I mean really are you in that big of a dang hurry that you couldn't wait for one car to pass?

August 10, 200719 yr Mine is: Drinking all of the tea then putting the pitcher back in the fridge. People stopping in the middle of the road to have a conversation(may not happen anywhere else but in Mt. Olivet it happens everyday) Leaving the lights on in a bedroom when not in there.

No offense, but one of my pet peeves is when drivers come to a complete stop before turning right. Unless there's a stop sign or traffic light, there's no need to make a complete stop to turn right into your driveway. If you use caution and turn slowly, I'm content to wait for you. If you ever come to a complete stop, I am going to swerve around you. ** All of this assumes there are no children / pedestrians to contend with.

That's why you come to a complete stop when turning right, You can't look for traffic, pedestrians, and kids all at the same time.
August 10, 200719 yr My Pet Peeve is when someone is in a hurry to pull out in front of you, while your driving......than decides to drive slow. :fire: :fire: :fire: Can you say Road Rage
