    When I order food that makes no mention of a certain spice in it...and bam! It's in there.😒 That really stinks when I am starving....I'm always weary of sending back food too.🙄 I worked as a waitress in high school and saw first hand what would happen....not for the weak of stomach!🤐😷

    When parents, in pursuit of some sophmoric idea of originality, name their kid some pretentious foolish sounding name that no one knows exactly how to spell or pronounce.

    People who scream and cuss at their kids in public. What you do in the privacy of your home is your business but do you really need to embarrass the kids and make yourself look like a fool on the bus??! Smh - makes me sad and mad and feeling all kinda bad.. poor kids

    It's a double edged sword however...

    Almost nothing can be more annoying than when people let their kids run all over the place and climb into your booth at a restaurant or up your *kitten* in line...

    Whenever I see a kid acting up and the parent bust them (not literally), I'm ready to hand out freaking medals! Lol

    Oh I agree 100% but also think that you can correct your children without your behavior appearing to be worse than theirs.

    Totally... I've nearly perfected "The look" my mother use to give me lol... All it ever should take imo

    I know that look. That's all it took. I never got spanked. No need. The look was all it took. Lol.

    It irks me when I see someone with obviously more than 20 items in their shopping cart waiting impatiently in the 12 and under line up.

    Yes! It also irks me to pay $0.05 for a crappy bag that will have holes in it by the time I get home...like if it was a decent bag I wouldn't have such an issue with it, but if I have to pay and can't reuse it... f that

    $0.15!!!! Are you kidding me? That's highway robbery! I'd full on rage!
    ...now if they tacked that price onto my items I probably wouldn't notice, but for a bag, nope!

    Funny, 2 stores I can think of that don't charge for bags here actually have the best quality bags

    Our grocery bags used to be free till this year. In an effort to protect the environment from the old bags that often ended up in landfill and waterways ( non biodegradable) they switched to these better bags that breakdown. I hardly notice the little extra on my grocery bill and it's for a good cause, so I'm ok with it. I believe you can return them to the store for a refund but I feel like this is my way to donate in a round about way.

    When people repeatedly claim they want to get out and do stuff, but never get out and do stuff. It's really not that hard...

    One of my biggest pet peeves is when people don't listen to hear and understand, but just to respond.

    I like pets and peeving
