It annoys me when you see the type of people who'll look at a piece of art and see only a price tag rather than just an expression of the artist.<br /><br />My other pet peeves probably include people who don't get subtlety on ANY level, and then make it awkward when you have to explain exactly what you mean, usually embarrassing to the assembled company. Another is the weird superiority imposed by people particularly between boys. Examples such as You read!? You should be out playing sport or other MANLY activities. Finally, my other, probably the WORST peeve is hypocrisy. For instance when it's only ever me that's claimed to be taking too long in the bathroom...<br /><br />Anyway, (wow that got me quite riled) Hope I haven't ranted too long!Zodiac Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12553589460894966939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3326531830869789271.post-23802769794784615392011-06-10T20:48:49.211+01:002011-06-10T20:48:49.211+01:00@ Viv.

I like to emphasise how much a like cheapo bargains even more enthusiastically in the face of people who only buy "names" at extortionate prices!<br /><br />@ Lena. I become peeved at everything as soon as I'm behind the wheel. I think I might be an angry driver :P So other people are probably peeved at me being peeved at them!

When a genre can cross age gaps, it's doing something fantastic. I think it's okay for young adults to read material that is more mature if they themselve are mature enough to read it and understand in it's entirety, which is where parents come in. Kids don't have unending cash flows unless parents give it to them. <br /><br />Pet Peeve #2. I just say thank you. Teachers are special people, to teach is the best profession there is, because the pay is not coming in the form of monetary value. You have to truly love kids to be an effective teacher. And I loved english, it's where I found my creative self. <br /><br /><br />I laughted out loud at your pet peeve 3. Don't care about money which is why you never have any. But I bet you are much happier too. It's stressful worrying about money and finances all the time.<br /><br />My pet peeves, slow drivers, fast drivers, texting while driving, people who smack while eating and selfish people who always want something, but can't be bothered to give in return.Lenasledgeblog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03910856908662964093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3326531830869789271.post-91894648891853635332011-06-10T10:01:01.507+01:002011-06-10T10:01:01.507+01:00The third pet peeve is also my pet peeve!

Bargains need to be informed to everyone!serendipity_vivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07156013023056026525noreply@blogger.com
