Pet Peeves Part II

These are slightly less annoying to me; mostly because they are a lot more common than my previous list.

I know some of you will read this and say "I've done that," or even "I've done that today!"

I don't mean to judge or offend you. And by all means, don't listen to me. I'm only one person!

Here it goes:

1. Letters to inanimate objects- i.e. "Dear phone, Please stop dropping calls." or "Dear Monday, I'd appreciate it if you ceased to exist." Are you expecting a response?

2. Poor grammar- I AM GUILTY OF THIS TOO ON OCCASION, so please don't point out my grammatical blog errors from here on out. But I can't get through some people's blogs without my inner word-smith cringing. What are you a Thunder player? (Read their Tweets, and you'll see what I mean).

3. Deciding what kind of day it is- i.e. "It's a two-cups-of-coffee kind of day" or "It's a windows down, Mumford and Sons, flips flops and a Sonic Happy Hour kind of day!" I say, maybe for you, but for me it's just Tuesday.

Keep sharing your pet peeves! I love reading them.

  1. Haha I probably have bad grammar on my blog, but I am with you about the letter to inanimate objects. It drives me crazy!!! Seriously, are they expecting a response?

  2. Girl, #1 is the WORST! I literally want to delete people on facebook when I see statuses like that. I kind of got annoyed just reading your examples.

  3. I'm gonna go cry in a corner now.

    You three should probably go ahead and stop following my blog. (see most recent post)

  4. Bah! Cara! I honestly didn't notice that! You're just too precious that it didn't even bother me.

  5. I'm really glad you posted Pet Peeves part II because I almost went back and commented on your first one just to vent mine...which are:
    #1. When I'm checking out at a store such as target or the grocery store as I'm unloading my things on to the conveyor thing I organize them according to what they are, i.e. refrigerated, hygiene products, produce etc. For some reason every checker I get always goes OUT OF THEIR WAY to reorganize my stuff when they bag it, i.e. my toothpaste and the lettuce end up in the same bag.
    #2. Saran wrap. That stuff makes me crazy.
