I know we all have them, but I think my list of pet peeves is getting longer and longer!
1). I hate when you are in a crowded mall, or sidewalk and can't seem to get around all the people who choose to walk at a snail's pace.
2). I hate when people slurp! MommaK used to hit me every time I slurped at the table, and I have to restrain myself from doing it to others.
3). I hate when I'm in class trying my best to listen to the teacher who is talking at a record pace, and people near me decide to carry a conversation! My attention immediately goes to what they are saying and I return to the lecture not understand at all what has been said.
4). I hate when people click their pens, tap their nails,or squeak their chair! I guess any sound that is soft, and almost undetectable and repetitive drives me nuts.
5). I hate when people sniffle and refuse to solve the problem with a Kleenex! Instead they constantly suck the snot back up into their bodies.
6). I hate going into WalMart! There are so many people, so much clutter, and too many things that make a "Beeping" sounds!
7).I hate when people make plans and then either cancel at the last minute, or even worse, never answer their phone. If you have to cancel, be a grown up and CALL! Last night I had plans to practice Guitar with Tim because tomorrow night I was going to play guitar while Tera sang at an open mic. Tim had offered I use his guitar since it is an amplified acoustic and would be easier to pick up than my acoustic. I was supposed to call when I got off work and he would come over and let me practice. Well, while I was at work I got a message from some friends we met last week asking if I wanted to hang out. When I got off work I called both Tim and my new friends and I never heard from either! If you are tired and have decided to stay in, just call!
8). I hate when people only talk about themselves and make no effort to ask how you are. I have a "friend" in Maryland that has been going to school and waiting tables for a few years now. Unfortunately there isn't much more going on in his life, but when we talk we don't talk about how I'm adjusting to a COMPLETELY different life, no we talk about waiting tables and how much he works out!!!!
9). I hate when men behave differently around a girl like me and a girl like... Jessica Simpson. There is a really sweet cute girl named Emily that started working around the same time I did so she doesn't know our manager any more than I do. But, the little asshole manager, picks on me for EVERYTHING and never says anything but nice things to her! Like today, he went around and harshly told every employee that they must come to work 15 minutes early. Emily and I pulled up at the same time, which happened to be 10 minutes early, and walked in together. But when he spoke to Emily, he kindly asked her to try to make it early to work just in case we are busy and could use the help. Don't men realize that women talk to each other about...Almost everything? So if he really thinks she sees him as the sweet guy he is only to her...He is an idiot!
10).I hate finding a new doctor, hairstylist, vet, gym, dry cleaner, and bank! I have had so many bad experiences with bad hair cuts and I finally found a great one in Baltimore 9 months before I moved. Now I'm down here and scared to trust anyone else!
11).I hate when women agree with men just to get their attention. And for that matter, I hate when people in general just abandon their core feelings and beliefs to go along with a crowd. I was in Survey of Recording Industry today and we were talking about how country music is the least downloaded music to Ipods. The teacher asked those who liked country music to raise their hands and comment on the matter. I was the first and most proud, but there were at least seven other people who confessed to liking country music. When the discussion got a little stereotypical and some-what harsh, I was the only one who still defended my preferred entertainment genre. I know this isn't like defending a religion or anything, but the same push-over mentality applies.
12). I hate my slow dial-up internet service. I just wish I had the money to spend on high speed!
13). I hate when you tell people where you go to school and they say, "do you know such in such?" Like I know everyone in a school with over 20,000 students attending it!
14). I think the one thing I HATE more than anything is people that are constantly talking about how they want a better life but make no effort to change their status. How do you expect your life to go in any other direction if you never turn the sterling wheel?
I think I had better stop because I see that this list could really go on FOREVER. What are some of your pet peeves?

I did not hit....I did not.
Ii hate it when people use "hate" for everything and ignore perfectly good words like "detest" and "loathe" and "disgust" and "love."
Hoss 1, Cowgirl 0. Hee hee.
(But that's a good list, kid. How come liking country music is not a requirement? I mean, this is Nashville for God's sake.)
Hey Cowgirl,
