Just call me Cranky McCrankington. It’s been a cruddy week. We’ve had some tough stuff come our way, and all of it at once has put me in a foul mood. And, it’s not just the big stuff. I’m getting irritated, and in a way to move past the small stuff, I’m gonna lay it all out for you.

My Master Pet Peeves List
- Going to pour a drink and realizing there is only a splash left in the container. Why put it back in the fridge? Just finish the darn thing!
- Calling a doctor’s office/salon/whomever and having a machine tell you, “Please listen to all of the options as our menu has changed.” No it hasn’t. Why are you wasting my time????
- When it takes more than 5 seconds for a web-page to load. Waste five seconds of my time, and I’ll find something better to do. Just sayin’.
- The word presh. “That dress is sooo presh.” I’ve seen it a few times on Pinterest now and I throw up a little in my mouth each time.
- The word adorbs used instead of adorable. “That outfit is so adorbs.” Really? That’s just ridiculous.
- Will gritting his baby teeth. Not presh or adorbs at all. Worse than nails on chalkboard.
- Leak-proof sippy cups that leak. Really? Can it be that hard? We can send man to the moon. Why does my son half to wear half of his milk at each meal?
- Getting emails from companies after you unsubscribe yourself from the list. Even better? When they send you an email to confirm that you have been removed. Just stop sending me emails!!!
I’m gonna stop now, as I’m finding it easier and easier to come up with things that irk me. Glad to have unloaded though. So let’s commiserate… what are your pet peeves?
People who don’t take their crying children out of church or restaurants, or anywhere, really. I have a 14 month old, and regardless of where I am, if she cries, she is removed from the situation until she stops!
I totally agree. Although sometimes instead of getting irked, I’m just really glad that isn’t happening to me! 🙂
People who don’t use turn signals. Really is it just too much effort to let other drivers know that you intend to turn left?
Apparently. My husband always says that Charlotteans are the worse about that. Do you think he’s right? Is it a Charlotte thing?
My 5yo grinds his teeth at night. He’s done it since he was a baby, and I can hear it through closed doors. Makes my skin crawl.
People who talk in movie theaters are always on my Bad List. My husband hates going to movies with me because I will call out anyone who does it. He thinks we are going to get jumped in the parking lot.
I’d be thinking people would be high-fiving you! I hate when people talk in movies. Even worse…. answer their cell phones!
presh and adorbs?! that made me “ugh” out loud! thankfully i’ve never heard those used before. sounds ridiculously annoying, though!
I think it is. But then again, I’ve been easily annoyed this week! 🙂
