What is YOUR pet peeve? Let's have a laugh.

[YY1]

Just got back from lunch.
Deli at local grocery.
I'm in the "10 items" express lane with my egg roll, drink and a box of granola bars.
Lady ahead of me says to the clerk- "I Have two orders".
OK, maybe not the best line to be in for that, but as long as they're 10 items or less, OK...
First order is uber or instacart- OK. but the lady gabs and gabs about that service and where all she's been

STOP gabbing. This is the express lane. It's not just about item count, it's about time.

When the clerk finally gets it bagged, her next order is kind of amusing.
Extra small popcorn chicken and 12 pack of Corona.....at 10:45 am.
Not judging, grams, but do you have to GAB and GAB about how Corona is good for your "Keto diet".....with your heavily breaded chicken?

That`s a shame you`re allowing yourself to be run off, conermuse, Sir. , ,

Take care, and I for one will miss your presence here on A/K ! ,

Can't say I saw the thread in question, , but, , leaving for good gives whoever's feeling were hurt a victory, they were able to bother you to the point of leaving. Stick around, there are way more thick than thin skins around here, and one butthurt person doesn't speak for the entire forum.

Whenever someone claims I've offended them I drag poor ol Yoda outta the shadows and let him do his thing.....

Thank You Bill, I appreciate that.

I do enjoy cornermuse's posts, and don't want to see him leave. Anytime the forum looses a member it's another perspective viewpoint lost.

Leaving ,no way what happened to old fashioned grit!

I've never seen you post anything out of bounds. Did your post get deleted? I went back and looked at your posts and do not see anything worth a ban.
Hopefully you stick around.

This is a genuine PET peeve - people who throw their plastic bags full of dog sh^t in our garbage can early in the AM after the garbage pickup.

I think it's the dog's way of saying thank you for the free treat you gave them the night before.

I agree, I see various items in our can on occasion. Go home and use your own damn can.

Well, at least it isn't on your lawn.

 

[Lucius Mojo]

Still it is very rude...you can easily tote the dog waste back to your own trashcan!

Family walking a great dane past out house last night. Dog starts to squat right in front of the neighbor's mail box.

Guy holding the leash looks around, sees me and the wife in our yard- wife not looking, me pretending not to look, and just lets the dog plop a couple apple sized biscuits right on the street and just keeps walking.

Glad it wasn't in front of our mailbox.

Today's pet peeve- Calling PC graphics cards (aka video cards) "GPUs". The GPU is the main chip ON a graphics card, but that big card with the fans on top and HDMI ports on the end is a GRAPHICS CARD. Not a GPU.

This is a GPU:


THIS is a Graphics Card (or Video Card):


Get it right! LOL

Kinda like calling the case, or computer proper, the "hard drive".

That used to irk me but I heard it so much I forced myself to just smile and nod.

New peeve today.

Got an insert with my dumpster bill on slick, full color paper that reads-

"A Change to Your Invoice!"

in giant letters, like it's a happy thing.

and goes on to say;

We've noticed that you haven't signed up for paperless billing and automatic billing yet.

...so there is now a charge of $8.50 to cover the costs of mailing out an invoice.

WTF???


In order to stop that exorbitant charge, I now have to create an account (and remember the login and PW), and then either give out CC info or link a bank account.

BTW this service just increased 20% 2 months ago and last year went up a whopping 45% after the initial local company I hired got bought by a big, national one.

Or calling the hard drive "memory."

Asinine "motive questioning" Q&A stalls ...

The question:

The "answer":

No I won't share an example. Let's just sit still until somebody comes along with an answer. This is typical Stack Overflow poser BS, but I see it on all forums whether automotive, or HVAC, or whatever. Just STFU. And stop recommending your own useless answer.
