Re: What is your biggest pet peeve?
sort of to piggy back on this, i dislike when people dont know how to pronounce things in general. especially if its something big.
or when people dont know how to spell names of famous people. idk why but it irks me to see someone type "deshawn jackson" or something of the like
and just thought of something that irks me more than the 2 above combined.. when people add an extra "s" onto words (names). like asante samuels. many many people do that and i hate itEagles | Phillies | Sixers | Flyers

Re: What is your biggest pet peeve?
I hate when I'm sitting in a meeting at work (I work in a mill, these are rare. I feel you need context to get this) and everybody at the table is clearly half asleep. Or angry that they have to be there. Like visible eye rolls and stuff. BUT! There's always that one guy who decides to take advantage of the "Any questions?" at the end of the meeting, and then proceed to ask questions pertaining only to his job, which he does by himself, and extend the meeting by 20 minutes.Member: OS Uni Snob Association | Twitter: @MyNameIsJesseG | #WT4M | #WatchTheWorldBurn

We obviously you didn't even read my post properly where i said if you have to drive 15mpg below the speed limit in good conditions you don't deserve to have a license. 3Am on a windy road is far from good conditions so i agree with it in that instance. I'm talking about the clowns who sit way below the limit with heaps of traffic going both ways so limited overtaking oppourtunities and they have about 20 cars backing up behind them. It's fine if you don't want to do the speed limit but at least pull over and let the 20-30 cars that have backed up behind you get past.Comment
