What small and stupid thing has recently gotten your goat?


Mine would be spell checks that never give you the right suggestion for what you want even though you only barely misspelled something.

Rachel xx Supposedly "small" things like the sounds people make when they eat, drink or make any noises like swallowing! :|

People who will beat around the bush for an hour before they get down to what they want to say. Just spit it out.

Shops who sell Easter and Christmas goods months before the holiday period.

Shops which have a perpetual sale which is supposed to be ending "this week-end"

Petty officialdom - give someone a uniform or a title and they instantly turn into a despot.

"people who dont have the courtesy to respond to an email"

Funny, these people are the first to whine if you don't answer theirs.

When patients lie to me, I find it both frustrating and insulting.

Tell me the truth - you did NOT just happen to fall on an object when you were conveniently naked and oiled up like you were about to appear in a sun-tan commercial.

greenkiwi For me it's the toilet roll.
Gets my gander up like nothing else!


And leaving the shower curtain closed(Ours is over our bath). I mean, seriously; when you've had a shower it's wet. It'll rot if you don't pull it open and allow it to dry out.
Go figure eh?

mrsd81 People who leave Christmas decprations up well past the holiday. A home on the next block STILL has Christmas ornaments hanging from their mailbox. It is the 4th of April.

Trivialvr70 I hate people who won't tell me the truth. I prefer something to just tell me how they REALLY feel about something.

The use of "umm, like, ya know" throughout everything a person says. I just spotted another one on here that bugs me. The use of an entire page by one poster for one comment.

Oh, I don't mind that if it's original and on the right thread.

How hard is it to say "thank you" anymore? I just did a slight favor for a friend and instead of a thanks, I got a "well, I could have done without it, I'll pay you back".
All I want is a simple thank you.

Those hideously ugly boots called 'Uggz'. There is absolutely nothing endearing about them. Extra stupid bonus points go to girls who wear them in the summer with shorts. Double Extra Bonus Points go to girls who also wear those stupid over-sized sunglasses that look 20 times too big for their head. Look sister, there's only one Paris Hilton and that's one too many. Go play in traffic.

Also, that new haircut where guys create like a mini-mohawk on the front of their head by pushing up their short hair into a pseudo-teepee. It's a failed attempt at being hip...a new corporate wild-man hairdo. These guys are making a statement by saying, ‘I may work for a heartless and unethical company and may be a complete sellout and a corporate tool, but I refuse to conform completely! HA! Behold my non-conformist haircut!’. When in actually they look like the other 20 dolts in the office who have the same haircut and dress in the same blue shirt with khakis. Hey buddy...Hitler wore khakis...get an identity.

supersal, I probably should have been MUCH clearer on that, I was in a hurry when I posted it. I don't mind it either IF it is the person's words, not an entire page copied and posted, just give us the link. I don't mind either IF it makes sense. I am talking about the ones that go on and on, lose me 1/10 of the way through, and it could have all been said with 400+ fewer words. I don't know if this makes my 'peeve' any clearer. I have read some excellent long posts and NOT minded at all.

daboosh, thumbs up on all of those! I detest the haircuts and have often wanted to ask how much they actually paid to look like that.

Let me see if I have this correctly. You mean they want their hair to look like that? I thought they just did not bother to comb it.

Thanks for the clarification.
