    When I mention that I have depression and they ask me "What do you have to be depressed about?"

    Exactly why I never mention it to anyone, ever. I'd rather not hear the comments people have in regards to my mental state.

    Geez I could come up with a list
    1. Daughters not doing the dishes, their only chore
    2. Empty ice cube trays in the freezer
    3. Drinking all my water in the Brita pitcher and never refilling it
    4. someone parking in my spot
    5. children covering every flat surface in my house with their crap
    6. Eating my packed lunch, when the refrigerator is filled with food
    7. Drinking out of my glass
    Guess I will stop there but could come up with many many more

    Six of those seven can be fixed with a leather belt across their bottom. :wink:

    Bad grammar.
    *"What are your pet peeves?" (what're) not "What is your pet peeves" (what's).

    When I mention that I have depression and they ask me "What do you have to be depressed about?"

    When I mention I have PTSD and people insensitively ask "What's the trauma?". Like anyone with PTSD enjoys talking about their traumatic experiences.

    People who tailgate me and get mad at me for driving the speed limit.

    Or they say, " but you look normal...". Like people with PTSD turn into little green men.

    :laugh: I've never gotten that one before!

    That's another pet peeve too. When people think you're going to act especially sad or whatever just because you have depression or another mental illness. Obviously I've had plenty of time to learn to act "normal", despite how I feel inside.

    This peeve actually involves pets.

    !) My old roommate and my brother's family does this:

    We are eating dinner, someone finishes eating, then gives the plate to the dog to lick! Yuck! my meal just got ruined after seeing the dog slobber all over the plates. I bought my own plates when my roommate did that.
    I love pets! Its not that. I just think they have their own bowl and their own food.

    2) the smell of cigarette smoke. I go out jogging in Waikiki at 5:30 AM and so many people are smoking! even at that time. I try to stay away from it, but if I gets in my face, that makes me sooo mad. I can also smell it when the person in the car in front of me in bumper to bumper traffic is smoking. My windows are rolled down since my air conditioner broke. Oh and don't even mention cigars. I can smell that a mile away. It makes me nauseous.

    3) The birds that poop all over my balcony railing and scream loud outside my bedroom window before my alarm goes off. I need to find something to scare them away. I try throwing pillows at the window to scare them. Sometimes I have to actually get up, yell out the window and go back to bed. I feel like a crazy women doing that. I tried putting an owl out there. That didn't work. I put aluminum foil around the railings. I strung CDs from the railing. It all works for a short while, then stops. i even bought some of those pinwheels. they just broke after the sun weakened them. If anyone has suggestions let me know:)
  • 1) People who say "praying for you" like it's something nice. Some of us don't believe in prayer, and it only makes me feel like the person saying it is an idiot.

    2) People who talk in movie theatres

    3) People who text you when they have nothing to talk about

    Totally myself. No one can piddle me off more than I can pee myself off. I annoy the heck out of me.

    Everyone else is fine.

    crumbs on the floor (or in the bed -- even worse). Ahhhh --- I hate feeling crumbs on my feet :) Clean floors people --- except I have 2 kids and a construction working husband, so I guess I am doomed to forever feel crumbs :)

    I agree with the not interrupting, but some people go on and on and on and on and on about the same subject, without taking a breath. It's exhausting.

    well, on here it is people who use this like a twitter site. you think they are going to be cool, instead they turn into being log obsessed with their daily life " I am going to the gym , bye all " " went to gym, had a great workout, going to make supper now" " made supper, it was good, going to do dishes now" "boy I went potty a lot today, all that water I guess "
    " going to go to bed, see you tomorrow !" ect.
    Yep, thats my biggest pet peeve on here.

    BAHAHAHAHA soooooo true - I have a couple of those people on my friend list......but they are hid from my feed so I don't go thru the torture

    pet peeve - MOTHERS OF BABIES AND TODDLERS. have to hit an all time nerve with me! I hate goldfish crackers under my shoes, I hate their stupid mom-stroller exercise groups at the park, I hate the baby plastic containers and organic juice boxes, and I hate more than anything when you tell me their kid is a friggin' Einstein at 8 months old. I really really hate other mothers.

    Wow.

    Double WOW......

    Did I mention this site is freaking addictive! It makes it really hard to not tell you about the poo I took in the morning :laugh:

    HAHA yes very addictive, I can spend hours on the message boards
    and I'm a nurse so don't even get me started on POO - it's always a topic of convo in nursing world. anytime of the day poo talk is appropriate :)

    OMG you win!
    as for # 2 - or if they have thier phones on in theatres...talking on them, checking facebook, and texting. ARGH the stupid phone lights up the whole area surrounding!
    as for # 3 - or they text you questions you answer them and then they text the same questions again...READ ABOVE!
    or they text someone else while you are sitting in front of them visiting. UM hello!!!
