ugh, just ugh. I was once on the non-flush side of the force but I saw the error of my ways, now I'm a toilet flushing zealot.

Eww....just eww..... That doesn't make me md as much as it makes me sick. I mean, that's just so wrong.

Pet Peeve: People who make posts like this:

Quote:

um...Iagre itso col!!!YOU aregret.

You know. With virtually no spaces and obviously no spell checking whatsoever. It really irks me when it seems that the person doesn't even care if they're post can be understood. And I KNOW that there are people who do it on this forum, so don't deny it.

I used to be a non-flusher, and my sister would always get mad at me. So, I pondered and pondered about what the solution could possibly be, and then it hit me. I WOULD FLUSH. Then my sister wouldn't get mad at me. And, to this day, I still flush. Even though she's rarely in the house now.

Peeve: People who insist on refering to themselves in third person. Is their ego so huge that they forbid themselves from saying "I" or "me?"

FireBird hates in when people have a couple of lines in their post, but it has no grammar or punctuation and you can hardly tell what they are trying to say.

New Pet Peeve: People on the Internet who are literally two or more years older than me and can't spell worth a flaming sack of crap! Come on! Where do those people learn to spell? Diaper school?

Agreed. There are some people on the forum that do this, and it really ticks me off.

Well, Queenie, I guess I should come right out and tell you that you're a hillarious, wonderful, and very attractive woman with whom I would love to fight crime.. Winners don't do drugs!
You're also fun to beat at iSketch. PRISON BABY!

*digs toe into carpet* Gee willakers, old guy. Thanks.

Now my toe hurts.

Flattery will get you almost anywhere. Unless it's in prison.

I wouldn't keep losing at iSketch if all you cheatars would stop cheating already, or if I could stop laughing enough to draw something remotely sane. So, props to those who don't cheat, except for The Cheat. He AND his rudely-thrown bust of Van Buren can have a few props on the side.

Dur. I don't cheat. Especially when I get a word you don't. That's all skill, baby.

...or Prison Baby.

Uh...Toastpaint to me. My pet peeve is about the same as FB's.

Peeve: My PS2 is dying. It has given my 2 years of loyal service and now it is dying. :((

Shopiom · **Posted:** Wed Jul 20, 2005 11:22 pm

I know how you feel, BTG. My PS2's broken too, but my parents keep forgetting to get it repaired. Anyway, a pet peeve of mine is when I hear things in Harry Potter that I'm not supposed to hear. In camp today, I overheard some people discussing the sixth book, AND THEY SAID WHO DIED! Like, give me some frikin' time to read the book, people! I'm only on page 133! The same thing happened when I hadn't read far into the fifth book. Someone said who died, and that sucked. I'm just glad no one's said who the half-blood prince is yet. I hope I can read up to that before people blab about it.

I definately don't cheat...

Well, I'm not cheating any more, anyways.

StrongCanada · **Posted:** Wed Jul 20, 2005 11:26 pm

I had it ruined for me too, Shopiom. I went to iSketch a few days ago, and under the user-created rooms, someone had a room entitled "______ kills ______" (I won't spoil it for those who still don't know). I was SO angry. :trogdor:

Jitka · **Posted:** Wed Jul 20, 2005 11:43 pm

The same thing happened to me. It sucked. Luckily I don't know anything about the rest of the plot yet.

Zah. I hate spoilers.

NEVER, the original Nintendo and SNES are the only pure game systems, that is until PS3 comes out.. I am gonna buy the new slim PS2.

Jitka · **Posted:** Thu Jul 21, 2005 1:27 am

Just wait for the PS3, man. Or get a $25 one on eBay that has the infamous "Disc Read Error" message and fix it yourself.

That's what I did. I saved seventy dollars!

I can fix the carburetor on a Dodge Charger 440 Six Pack, but I cannot fix a PS2. I'd rather buy a new one, than an old one with issues.

Nintendo....I have one, and good it is.

My pet peeve? People who don't know when to leave the tables at the casino when they are up. I won at roulette and quickly left. Others I were with kept playing and eventually lost. I told them, but no-one listened.....yarr.....

Those people haven't learned that the house always wins.

My POTD (peeve of the day) are people who seem to think that the entire planet exists merely to serve them*.

This lady comes into work tonight, and gets all up in my face and asked, with about as many expletives as non expletives, if I thought I was too good to help her. 2 little problems, 1. I was off the clock, 2. I don't actually work there (I do work there, but I don't work the store, I'm leading a remodel crew).

*note: For the sisterhood, the planet DOES exist to serve them.

Peeve

At my work, we have these Customer Loyalty Cards, which gives you 25% off food. A woman forgot hers today and asked if we could look her up on 'the system'. I told her no, the only way to get the discount is to present your card so we can swipe it and give you the discount at the register.
Reply - "Well, that's a bit slack"
I just turned around and played with the cash in the drawer while waiting for her credit card to go through and didn't say a word.
Wanted to say "Well you're a bit slack for not bringing it!"

Tries excuse "I left it in my other hand bag"
Me wanting to say "Well, that's not my problem, is it??"

Grrrr...

That's pretty good... I woulda said a lot worse.

I woulda said "so?"... of course, I approach work with the attitude of "if they fire me, I don't have to put up with people anymore.." It's not that I hate people, it's just the type of people that shop and work at Wal-Mart..
You people are fine, however. Some of you, supa-fine.

PizzaTrophy · **Posted:** Thu Jul 21, 2005 6:27 am

Well, I only work there and even we only get 25% off.
She maybe would have saved $4!

Slack, forgetful, and not to mention a big fat tightwad!

Eh? I defy you to find such a quote. And yet I'm glad to be a pet peeve at the same time.

Peeve: When a guy hits on me, like SERIOUSLY - he goes as far as to approach me MULTIPLE times, goes out of his way to tell my best friend that I'm gorgeous, wants to sing a duet with me at karaoke - and then introduces me to his girlfriend.

It's happened to me MORE THAN ONCE, PEOPLE! All y'alls with gfs/bfs -
BE FAITHFUL, FOR PETE'S SAKE!!! And leave other hot people ALONE.

Note: This does not include men who were my friends first and flirtmates later, long after I knew their relationship status. Flirting outside of relationships is ok as long as that's ALL it is, and you aren't leading anyone on.

Those are the guys that you take aside and slap them upside the head about a dozen times.
