Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Mine is probably when I swallow the ball on my tongue bar (you'd be surprised how much that happens) or when you buy something with a sticky label on it and when you peel it off it's still really sticky and horrible. Your turn :) Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Sorry, slightly confused, what are "pet peeves"? :O Quote
Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 A pet hate, something that really gets on your nerves Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Ah, I see. Well there are quite a few of these for me, but I can't think of them all off the top of my head. Many of them involve people who are deliberately ignorant/nasty, but I won't go into detail as I could start ranting :P One thing that keeps popping up in my mind is this girl who picks her ears with her pinky finger while talking to me sometimes. Completely and utterly disgusts me... Quote
Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Ahahahaaa! That's hilarious. Maybe you should anonymously buy her some cotton buds to clean them with ;) Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Haha, I don't know if she realizes she does it. She's not very smart... she probably wouldn't take the hint. 0:) Quote
Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Aww bless. You could make her finger a 'disposable hat' made out of cotton wool and draw a smiley face on it or something to make it more appealing? (p.s I tend to get way into crazy hypothetical situations so please just stop me now before I go off on one properly haha!) Quote

But to be honest, I'd rather she learned that picking your ears in public isn't nice. Save that for the bathroom. Quote
phyxius_on Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 hahahah iona oh my that is just gross I have a few but quickly I would say ... people who sniff all the time, gee get a kleenex and blow pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee people who bathe in thier perfume or aftershave argggggggggg do you really stink that much that you have to cover it with a scent lol Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 hahahah iona oh my that is just gross I have a few but quickly I would say ... people who sniff all the time, gee get a kleenex and blow pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee people who bathe in thier perfume or aftershave argggggggggg do you really stink that much that you have to cover it with a scent lol I totally agree. Though sometimes I'm a culprit for sniffing... but usually it's because blowing my nose didn't really do anything at all. And yes! What's worse is when the smell of their perfume/aftershave mixes in with any body odour they are attempting to cover up. It makes it even worse. Quote

Oh yay, somebody else who says "mingin'", where are you from? :P Quote
Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Brighton in England. Probably the best seaside city there ever was! We are gay capital of the UK, BOO YAH! What about you? If you say minging too there's no way you could be American?! Oh and Kat I did exactly the same thing earlier when I pictured that girl with her finger in her ear and a look of disgust on Ionas face (well I say that but it was kind of a generic face seeing as I don't know what she looks like :P) Quote

If you say minging too there's no way you could be American?! Oh, it says that on the left I should have checked! Nope, I'm Scottish! Live in a town near the capital :P High five for UK! EDIT: And I'm like you guys, I tend to picture what people say xD Quote
Sam I Am Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 My biggest pet peeve is when people misuse good and well. <_< Quote
Tank Girl Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Yeahh hurray for UK! :D I haven't met a lot of people from our neck of the woods on here, howdy diddly neighbor! And Sam, how exactly do you mean? Quote
phyxius_on Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 WOW kewl, nice to meet you teamshannon UK and Iona Scotland, never been to either place but would love someday to go to both (been to the Netherlands 1995) remembered another peeve - people who talk to you but don't actually look you in the eye Quote

I can think of two things people go there for... Which was it, sex or drugs? hahaaa (I really hope you're over 18 and I'm not influencing a young innocent mind now I've said that :P) And see, you say that but would you prefer it if someone was really staring at you right in the eyes? That really really creeps me out. Like when some guys give you that really fixated "I'm trying to look deep into your soul" stare, really gives me the heebies! Quote

Like when some guys give you that really fixated "I'm trying to look deep into your soul" stare, really gives me the heebies! I think it's a matter of getting the balance right there. Avoiding eye contact can dishearten people, but too much can creep people out. Quote
Octopus Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Mine is when people smoke in front of the dorm entrance. Or when people deny that smoking is bad for your health. Quote
hrtbrk Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 The mushy sound when people eat bananas! STOP THAT! Or when people crack their knuckles... Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 The mushy sound when people eat bananas! STOP THAT! Or when people crack their knuckles... Haaa, I've never thought of that mushy sound before but now you mention it I'm like "wow, I totally know what you mean". Knuckle cracking only bothers me when people do it excessively. EDIT: I love your avatar. Misfits is such a good series! <3 Quote
Cornflakes Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 My biggest pet peeves? your you're its it's and people that can't locate places on a map. Like Cuba. If you can't point out Cuba on a map, please study a map! Quote
Iona Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 My biggest pet peeves? your you're its it's Agree on this one. It's shocking how many people make those same mistakes, over and over. Quote
