right now, my big pet peeve is people who barge into elevators, subway cars, buses, etc., without letting people get out first. that REALLY gripes my ass. it's a bald expression of lemming-like "ME!-monkey" behavior, and if i were mayor i'd make it against the law like they did with jaywalking in new york.



Mine is personal space. There are people who get really close to you and act as if you're not even there. How rude!!!!! Get off me, don't FUCKING touch me! Same concept as yours. Didn't their mama teach them any manners?

People who always talk about themselves and interrupt when you're trying to tell them something.

Women who pick up on other women's husbands. Ooooh god! That's skanky.

that used to bug me too, but i've gotten really good at pulling away from people and if they act all offended, i just say i have claustrophobia issues (which i do, actually). usually once you make a point to pull away from someone, they "get" it...and if they don't, then you can REALLY let 'em have it.

We took one of our summer law clerks out for lunch once to thank him for the work he did for us. He thanked us by clipping his finger nails AT THE TABLE while we were waiting for our meal. I asked him not to do it, and he replied "Would you rather I did it while we were eating?" I told him I'd rather he didn't do it at all, and he still finished the job. Nobody else said a thing.

He was also guilty of another etiquette crime that gets me in the work place - lots and lots of cologne. The homosexual male seems to own a large portion of the market for this transgression.

Another one that get me is foul breath. I have a coworker with the absolute worst breath you can imagine. I am not exaggerating when I say that you can smell her presence in a room 30 minutes or more after she's left. It's that bad. She's been talked to about it and at one point was popping breath strips like M&Ms, but no change. She may very well have a medical condition of some sort, but I dunno. If endorphin74 were here, he could verify my claim. lol

see, now to me, that transcends etiquette and spills into creating an unhealthy work environment. when people wear too much perfume or cologne, it can completely fuck up some people's sinuses and/or give them massive headaches. i have absolutely no problem talking to my boss when someone's chronically abusing their perfume collection, because i really don't see any reason why i should suffer because someone wants to smell up the place.

though i still think i should be allowed to bring in incense. biggrin

I fucking hate that shit...especially around here when people waiting to get on a buss, pile up at the door and the people trying to get off of the buss can't, cause there is a bunch idiots acting like they have to be the first ones on the buss or there are not going to be any seats left. Fuck I HATE that shit.

Since moving to the country in which I now live I have been appalled- appalled I tell you at the lack of manners and courtesy amongst the people here. Below are some of my pettest peevages
- The eating thing. In this country dishes are communal, meaning that everyone at the dinner table dips their own eating utensils into the same dish. Talking during eating (masticating) is common- nay, it is expected. I once had dinner with my colleagues accompanied by our institution's driver. I kid you not- the man farted at least a half dozen times at the table. With complete impunity.
- Spitting. Although there are a plethora of signs about the streets urging people not to spit, I have copped not a few spit sprays from the mouths of others when the the prevailing breeze has been particularly unfavourable to me. A walk upon the pavement requires acute eyesight in order to avoid stepping in the throat mush left behind by this nation of lugesters.
- Mobile phones. I cannot even speak about this. It is entirely too painful.
- Queues. There are none. For anything. It's like being on a cobbled street in Pamplona.
- Rip offs. As I am not a native of this country I am constantly and quite blatantly ripped off. The attitude of those from whom I must purchase is simply this- "You are not from here, therefore I am entirely within my rights to charge you at least triple the going price. I know you know this. But really, I don't care. Now pay me.'

There are very many more but I feel myself becoming consumed with bitterness and angst.

When people assume it'z okay 2 pick out of your plate hmm ...if i insinuate or am asked if i want 2 try- then fine- but just dont shove you're fork in my plate!! hmmm lol

People who spit in public. URGH!!! eek

People who hit you with their bag or fat arm when they push you 2 get past you in a hurry!! Is 'excuse me' 2 hard a phrase 2 escape da lipz? Or 'sorry...'? Bloody hell!!

i think people talking in theaters has gotten better over the past couple of years - they call more attention to it in the pre-movie service announcement bits and i think it's helping a little, at least here in chicago. plus, i think people appreciate that you don't pay ten bucks to listen to some schmoe talk about what a jerk his boss is while you're trying to watch a movie.


I actually got up and told a woman to shut her mouth during a movie once. I was much nicer than that, actually. giggle But there were only 6 people in the theatre. Me and my friend, a random couple in the back and some loud woman and her date who were sitting in the row behind us and a few seats over. After several glares (that I made sure she caught) and quiet "shushes" and loud sighs on my part I finally got so annoyed I got up walked into her row, sat down next to her and whispered "psst, excuse me". She looked as me as if I were crazy. I asked her to please stop talking as it was runing my enjoyment of the movie. She practically yelled at me and said, "Well whst do you think you're doing to me here?" And I said some smart retort about my point now coming across to her just fine and walked back to my seat.

I was SO MAD!



whever that happens in a theater i'm in, i always get up, walk out to the lobby, and inform the management, i tell them that my enjoyment of the movie is being compromised and if they do nothing about it, i'd like my money back. i then explain exactly what seat in the theater the offender is sitting . they usually send an usher in to speak to ther person, that usually shuts them up, that, and the usher standing by the exit watching them for about 15 minutes.

To know me is to know it is basically true. I can't be bothered by peoples differences or bullshit.... Life is to live not to spend addressing others issues. I pretty much get you or can't see you.

A common Museism is, get on with your bad self. Let it be! It isn't to say I don't try and configure someones angle here and there.... Just don't let it rock my world off its personal orbit...


Now, stop making the fucking whofarted face at me. It is rather annoying! razz
