Also very funny, Jeric!!
Ok, pet peeves - public transport...
Those people who sit on buses and eat stinky food,
People who sit on the chair next to you and sit on your leg,
People who get on the bus and pay for their ticket with 247 items of loose change,
People who close the window on the bus when you've just opened it - or the opposite way round,
...and so on....
so I won't bore you any more... |

People who talk during movies. People who would rather ask questions in the chat rather than read the homepage..... |

Actually we didn't knew it was gonna be that full. It was 5 pm. when we were gonna see Troy. We thaught most people would come later. Right....
And it wasn't even in the cinema in our hometown. I drove about 50 miles for it. It should have been a nice day out.
By the way, I don't like full cinema's either. Too much noise. _________________ In a world without justice, one man was chosen to protect the innocent. |

OKAY THIS ONE JUST HAPPENED... My big pet peave!
NERDY LOCAL WEATHERMEN WHO GET HARD WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT A NEW LATEST WEATHER SYSTEM. NOW THESE PEOPLE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO BREAK INTO REGULAR PROGRAMING WHEN A STORM OCCURS... other stations like to just scroll on the bottom unless its REALLY important... These OTHER people BREAK IN, AND STAY ON THE WHOLE HOUR, SAYING THE SAME STUFF OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
OUR LOCAL 27 weather man Bob Lindmier took away the season finale of extreme home makeover... |

Most definitely THE ONE for me. No offence to all of you wonderful people at SST who live in the USA, but I noticed it the most in the US, more than here in Canada. Last year I made a roadtrip to South Carolina and back. I drove the whole way there and back, sight-seeing along the way, and it drove me nuts!!! _________________ "Get it?...Got it!...GOOD!" -- The Court Jester |
