Pet peeves are things that really bother and annoy people. I’ve decided to take this time to make a quick reference of all things that have really been grinding my gears lately. This will be quite therapeutic for me. I’m hoping that if I get it all out in writing, I can stop letting these irritating annoyances from ruining my day.
Wet socks. There is nothing worse then wet socks. I was running into work, late mind you, the other day when I literally jumped foot first into what felt like a 4 foot puddle. My right sneaker was submerged underwater leaving me with one, single, wet sock. I had to walk around work all night with my foot and sneaker making that unbearable “squishing” noise with a cold, damp foot. It was the pits.
Sitting on the same side of the table/booth when out to eat with someone. Why do people do this? It literally boggles my mind. I don’t understand how it’s comfortable or even practical to sit next to, rather then across from someone, at a restaurant. It’s like both of your necks are at a 45 degree angle as you try to eat your food and carry on a conversation without looking completely ridiculous.
People who only talk about drinking. I get it, you’re 21, you’re in college, you drink. Is it really necessary to broadcast to the entire class room how many beers you drank last night or involve the phrase “I was so hammered last night” in every sentence? I can’t decide if these people really have nothing else to talk about or actually think it makes them look cool to talk about booze so much.
Everybody Loves Raymond reruns. Okay, this is a funny show. I’ll watch it and definitely find myself cracking up. But doesn’t it seem like this show is syndicated on every single channel? It’s like every afternoon, dinner time and late night television slots are filled with reruns of this show. It really is an overkill.
Well, now I feel better.
