We all have them, so what are some of your biggest pet peeves? A lot of mine center around rude people and rude behaviour- like not letting someone out in traffic, but one of my pet peeves I see here on the board all the time...loose vs. lose. I don't know, but it drives me crazy when someone says, "I have to loose this weight." Argh. lol


When you look back in a year's time, will you be saying, "I'm so glad I stuck it out!" or "Why did I waste another year?"

My biggest pet peeve now is when people don't understand why they're not losing weight but they still eat like crap and/or rarely exercise. My sisters do that and it's so annoying! They also rave about G2 and one of the first ingredients is high fructose corn syrup...explode It's so hard not to go off on them! lol.

Lack of "commom sense" (and I use the term "common" loosely). wink

That's kind of ironic.

When people chew their food really loudly or use "text talk."

I don't care how old you are or what genre of internet sites you're using but use some sort of proper grammar no matter what you're writing.




My ticker is set to when I will no longer be obese at 196. Once I hit that I will change it to where I will no longer be overweight at 164 and then to my ultimate goal of 140. This way I am not too overwhelmed and will feel like I've achieved something each time my ticker hits the end. =]

"Muscle weighs heavier than fat" or "a pound of muscle is heavier than a pound of fat"


Arggggg, no it doesn't. Then, when you point this out you get "I know it doesn't "weigh" heavier, it just takes up less space".

THEN SAY THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!

Inconsiderate people...people with NO manners
If I hold the door for someone, would it be too much to get a thank-you

One time when my kids were both very young, I was holding one baby in my arms and the other by the hand and used my foot to catch the door for the person behind me and he just breezed through w/ out a word
explode

I hate that. I used my energy to hold the door open for you. The least you could do is say thank you or at least acknowledge my presence.

Me too! I have a horrible co-worker that does nothing all day other than criticize what I'm doing and I have to pick up the slack on calls, etc. But then she tells my bosses that I'M the one not taking calls or doing anything all day mad

SOOOOOOO Many but my 2 biggest would be variations of rudeness (like the holding-the-door open example) and SLOW drivers. I have a lead foot. Dangerous, I know, but "get outta my way!"

I absolutely HATE people that drive slow in the left lane.... MOVE THE #### OVER! AND people that sit in the left lane next to someone that is going the same speed they are thus blocking both lanes!!!!!!

Start weight 240
Current weight 200
Goal 1 - under 215 by June 14th - Reached June 7th
Goal 2 - under 200 by August 2nd (vacation)- Reached July 24th
Goal 3 - 180 January 1st

People who know less of their job then you do, yet you never even worked in that field before, like customer service & then they have an attitude as if they have the right to not know anything and be smugged about not knowing anything and I add it is just the most basic of their job duties.

If you are willing to do what others dont do, you will get what others wont get.

I have many but one of my biggest is to see people that are rude to the elderly!! That drives me up a wall.

And when people say "cre****" instead of "credit" or "ax" instead of "ask".

People who don't know what a turn lane is for!!

Okay, must stop now or the list will go on and on and on and on and on......oh you get the picture!!LOL

rudeness to the elderly is a huge one let alone violence to the elderly did you see that robbery in a building some months ago in the news he punched that lady several times in the face and ripped her purse from her truly a disgusting act.

people who pretend to be nice when it is in their best interest as in fear for their life, but actually that is why they behave that way they are suffering but are too afraid to face their fear like we all must do & improve ourselves. bigsmile

People who turn around in church to see who came in late; then have the nerve to comment on it. Well if you were paying attention you wouldn't know who came it late. Sorry that just ticks me off. My mom always slapped me in the back of the head when I turned around. Needless to say I don't do it now. laugh

Men who complain about having to pay $30 a week in child support.noway

People who ask why don't you have kids.

People in rural areas who cut you off then turn 10 feet down the road.

People who send you ten FW: everyday.
Do not crave his delicacies, for that food is deceptive.

1) “talkers” who rant about all the great things they will do… just go do it?
2) Self righteous people who are always better, or right
3) Budgers, it’s one of the quickest signs of inconsideration
I like to run
