Pet Peeves

Well today I was trying to figure out something to blog about then I remembered something I’ve been putting off, pet peeves. This kinda resurfaced last night at Java and Jam or rather after Java and Jam while some of us were standing around talking.

Ok so after Java and Jam last night a small group of us were standing around talking and without asking if it would bother anyone lit up a cigar. Personally I don’t mind smoke from cigarettes or some other types of things that get smoked, but cigar smoke is quite a bit strong. Now proper manners would normally dictate that you ask people if it would bother them before lighting it up, and if they say it will then either don’t light it up or simply go around the corner or something to light it up. I mean come on, most people that smoke cigarettes ask if it will bother other people, so why is it that people who smoke cigars can’t do the same, especially when you have a group of people that are coughing and choking behind you. It is just common courtesy.

Another pet peeve of mine that I seem to come across a lot at home is when I go to use the restroom and the person who used it before me left an empty roll of toilet paper on the roller. This kind of goes hand in hand with another one of my peeves the last person who put the fresh roll of paper on the roller did not replenish the stock under the sink. Ok how can you know there is no more paper left and just leave it for the next person? It makes me wonder how they would feel if it happened to them. It is just one of those things that really upsets me to no end.

One of my other pet peeves is when someone drinks a glass of milk or juice or something similar and only leaves practically a sip in the jug. How can you leave just a sip in the jug? If there’s that much left after pouring your glass then just finish it off. How hard is it to take a sip or two from your glass and just pour the rest in your glass from the jug?

Another thing that gets me is when you have people that make plans for you and then complain when you don’t get there when they said. I’m sorry but I’m thirty years old I can make my own plans. Just because you want to meet someone at a certain time doesn’t mean that I can get there at that time. The only thing this does is make me rush to get there at the time that you said I’d be at a certain place without asking me if that time was good for me.

Random Bachelor Card of the Day: “Stand on a stage or the bar and dance Coyote Ugly style, or entice a group of girls to do so. (Ask management first; you’ll probably get tossed out if you don’t)”

I have a special rule to add to this one. You cannot do this card while at Coyote Ugly because that would be cheating.
