Your Biggest Pet Peeve

Im really bored so let's chat. What is your number one pet peeve? You can go top three if you can't narrow it down.

For me here lately it has been punctuation. Spelling I suck at but using apostrophes has been sticking with me like the plague. I wish I didn't notice!! Everyone I text never uses one period. Im going nuts! What about you?

1. I cant stand the smell of my boyfriends body spray. I used to love it, but not anymore it smells like comet cleaner to me now.
2. My boyfriends snoring! OMG! Its so loud, he's woke up our 7year old daughter,neighbors and me. Sounds like a freaking dying elephant or something.
3.People not putting there  dishes in the sink, that drives me up the wall.

2) Strangers wanting to touch my belly....umm no thank you - I wouldnt just randomly rub you so dont touch me.

1. Ppl who wrIte lik dis. U look rly stupid. Some ppl nneed 2 go back 2 skul's cux they neva lernd how 2 red.

2. People who call my husband my "partner". We aren't running a business together, we aren't gay, and neither of us is a fan of that level of ridiculous politically correct b.s. quit trying to redefine our relationship to fit a supposedly "feminist" fad. Dont like it? Great, we don't care, since its not like you're a part of our marriage.

3. People who randomly come up to us and tell us we are too young to get married, and too young to have kids. Then tell us we are wasting our lives having kids while young. I guess its because somehow its impossible to visit other countries with kids. Sure, if you're so lazy you can't properly train them...

Bonus: snide questions about what the first language of our child will be. Unlike the mouth breathers that keep asking/picking fights, I speak 3 languages and have a degree in ESL. Not only mommy and daddy have the right to decide, mommy has the experience and education to back everything right. Its not like I am teaching klingon.

1. People smackin' on their food. It's called eatin' with your mouth closed! My boyfriend does this ALL THE TIME. I've told him so much all I gotta do Is be like "SHHHH!" >=-( and he gets what I mean.

2. More of a work thing... People askin' stupid questions....Like where are your shoes at? "They're right In front of you" "Oh, guess I should've looked more before askin' " YEA YOU THINK! Or when I'm workin' Fitting Room, when we answer the phone, "Thank you for callin' our local 24 hour Flagstaff Wal-Mart, how may I help you or direct your call?" and people will be like "When do you close?" I JUSS FREAKIN' TOLD YOU!!!! NEVER, WE'RE 24 HOURS!!!

3. And on a daily basis while working....customers farting In the store and then I walk In their massive stink bubble and almost throw my guts up! People show no respect sometimes! Yes, It's natural and we all do It, but go to the bathroom If you need to do that. It's so gross! I can hardly tolerate my own when I gotta do It!

When I was working in preschool/early learning, I HATED all of the excuses! "I didn't bring sun screen all summer cause its on my kitchen table" "oh no we forgot hat and mittens, AGAIN" "oh I totally forgot we needed to bring in diapers" or when I worked with the 2&3 year olds I had 20 in my class, with an assistant teacher to help and kids would be 100% potty trained for me but parents just refused to put the time into potty training at home!

Junebaby17... I also work at a Headstart. The thing that bothers me the most at work is when parents send their girls to school in a dress with no bloomers. Panties ain't covering when they are trying to play like normal. They make all sorts of leggings long and short ones now a days. Drives me insane!!!

Mine are a little weird since I work at a preschool. My number one would be runny noses. Two is hair in little girl's faces. It makes the cutest kids look so dirty and it's not like it's hard to wipe a nose or put your child's hair up.

When people use predictive text,  especially on comments. I can't take their comment seriously. When people give me stupid pregnancy advice or advice that no one would do. I'm 18 and I know this lady who told me that a baby isn't a toy, giving be this HUGE lecture,  I'm sitting there going I'm not stupid I know what I'm doing then she was like " I was 18 when I had my first". She was talking to everyone saying how young I was ect and she was the exzact same. She drove me mental.

1.  Any place too hot. Feels like im going through menopause.  2. Cigarettes now. I use to smoke but the smell drives me insane,  speaking of smells, anything that smelks rank or damp. Since the wintet started its been raining and snowing and I guess people don't wash their clothes as often as they need to.  3. When somebody asks me a question they already know the answer to. I.e "are you pregnant? !" Nah I was 102 before and I gained20lbs all in my tummy.

I absolutely hate my partner farting, men not wiping the toilet seat when they go for a wee and can't aim. People standing so close to me when talking that i can feel their breath. People saying 'have you got a cough' while your coughing.
