Mindy's Peeves...
1. "freinds" who get mad at you or accuse you of not being a good freind if you become too sick to keep up with their high maintainence egos
2. telemarketers
3. People who talk too loud on thier cell phones or on the metro (DC public transportation) during the morning commute
4. People who drive erratically when talking on thier phone/eating while driving/putting on make-up while driving!
5. comments on my weight (or more apporpriately lack thereof)
6. People who do not appreciate how blessed they are simply for the fact that they were born in this country! (There's other countries that one is also blessed to be born in - but those of us who were born in the U.S./Canada/Australia/most of Western Europe should thank the Lord every day that we were not born in Burma/North Korea/Tibet/Turmenistan/nearly all of sub-saharan Africa!!!)
7. For something petty - I hate slurrping or chewing with your mouth open - yuck!!!!
Okay - those are the big ones...

I live in NY, something p*sses me off or annoys me very other minute, especially during my commute...  Of course I am exagerrating a bit. My new pet peeve lately is CELL PHONES! Now, I have one, I rarely use it unless it is an emergency... But I cannot stand people who use them incessantly for no good reason. People become morons when they get on them. They can't walk let alone drive when they are the phone...

Ditto regarding your "walk to the right" rule. On bad days I have been known to walk to the right and if the person coming doesn't do the same, well then they just get a hip check as we cross paths...

But special ed is all ed psych stuff, so it's not a far cry from an Ed. Psych masters. Yay school psychs!
That was actually my plan coming out of high school, and I did go into arts psych, but my marks were 70s and you don't go anywhere here with a BA in psych. But teaching is sooo my passion, I loooove it.

Mine are:
1. People taking my stuff. Hate that!
2. Self-satisfied idiots using words they don't know (or make up) to make themselves seem smart.

P.S. (I asked my BF what my pet peeves were and he said, "Sound, and other people." LOL! Hey, that's true. How well he knows me.)

and they really piss off us good drivers. In fact, I once
saw a poor young kid get killed, literally crushed to death
by an 18 wheeler because of a 'traffic train'. This poor
admittedly impatient kid tried passing ten cars at once. I
remember seeing him pull out from behind me, and me think-
ing 'Oh no kid, don't do it!' As I passed the wreckage I
got sick to my stomach. What was once an 18 ft long car was
reduced to a crumpled up block of metal about 4 ft. long.
The cops never traced down the lead car of that train,who in
my book should've been charged with and convicted for invol-
untary manslaughter. At least these days some states have
laws against going 10 to 15 mph below the speed limit, but
I don't think Michigan is one<sigh>. -Bob
