(2) When people are trying to merge (particularly when I'm in the car with them), and they get annoyed about nobody letting them over, or traffic being heavy, but DON'T turn on their blinker until the VERY last second before they physically move into the other lane. The blinker is there to alert other drivers you are intending to move over... how is it beneficial to flip on the blinker while already in the process of merging??
X2 on this. What REALLY REALLY REALLY gets to me is when people are late... My gf is always late....

Re: Your Pet Peeves?
1) People who think that we should just loan them expensive tools at no charge so they can fix their cheap cr*p. You want quality, you pay for quality.
2) People who think that just because a job was quick (because we have the correct expensive tool to do it) that we shouldn't charge for it. See #1.
3) People who think that just because my business is home-based they don't have to pay sales tax... and then they claim that I'm pocketing it. Would you like to see the results of my state tax audit from earlier this year? :rolleyes:
4) People who think that just because my business is home-based as opposed to a B&M store, we will be willing to violate federal laws. Ummmmmmmmmmmmm... no.
5) People who don't know the difference between a tax return and a tax refund. A 1040 is a return, a refund goes into your bank account so you can buy more snakes!

1. People
2. Refer to number 1
3. Refer to number 2
4. The saying "The only good snake is a dead snake". The best way to end a conversation with a person like that is to say "The only good person is a dead person" *insert end of conversation here*
5. Herp hunting all bloody morning and seeing nothing...and then the dog pukes in your car on the way home. Might explain my mood right now...
6. People who make lists of things and have one of the things in the list refer to another thing in the list, Refer to number 1,2, and 3

When I'm out walking around in general, like walking my dog, and they can be within 10 feet and they see me wave... and they don't wave back. Like, seriously?
Whenever I read "poisonous" snake and it's not about the Japanese keelback. Especially in scholarly articles like textbooks or assignments.
Cheesy commercials. I hate cheesy commercial jingles. Like that Farmers Only Dot Com one. Nope, hate them.

Lack of (planning, preparing, doing what you are suppose to, etc/ fill in the blank) on your part does not constitute an emergancy on mine.

My mother-in-law is like that. We figure at 70+ years old she won't change, so we just tell her to be somewhere 15-30 minutes before she really needs to be there.

People who speed up while you're trying to merge lanes.
Really? You'd rather rear-end me than let me go?
People who are always killing or rehoming their pets and getting new ones like they aren't living things. But then are the ones who share all the "stop animal abuse" posts >.>
Also, my friend who is always complaining that she doesn't have a boyfriend but only likes pretty boys and famous youtube stars... I don't think I've ever met anyone so desperate in my life. She'll add anyone on the ps3 who gives her a compliment for being a girl, and it's all the dirty guys I avoid. Seriously girl, there are nice guys in your league that like you, I've met them, but you won't give them the time of day >.<
