Pet peeve thread

Pet Peeves:

1. When a person spends 40 seconds on an exercise and then spends 10 minutes playing with his/her phone.
2. Shitty gyms like Planet Fitness and Blink
3. Stupid idiots and free will do not mix. We all end up paying for it.
4. Doom Scrolling. Never understand that TikTok nonsense.
5. Free to Play and the Subscription Model. Miss the days of you pay once and you own it.
6. European tourists on a busy street on a weekend from Tribeca to SoHo.
7. People traveling hundreds/thousands miles away to buy fake shit.
8. LonelyFans and people spending thousands of $$$$ on it.
9. Wannabe food influencers hyping up mediocre/crappy food.
10. Food influencers ruining hidden gems leading to long ass lines and higher prices.
11. $30 for a pastrami sandwich and $18 for a cream cheese smoked salmon bagel. Uhhh NO.
12. Economic Indicators. Especially today. Wouldn't trust them with the manipulations. Better economic indicators are SPs/Strippers and Vegas.
13. Vegas. Used to be a good place to visit. Not anymore.

Hobby Pet Peeves:

1. Girl(s) leaving before you get to see them.
2. Now all about incalls in Montreal. WTF? Laval?
3. Hotels like Sofitel the girl can’t just hop on the elevator I have read and hear.
4. The gap between dating and this hobby has been narrowing. It was much more respectable and honest when there is a wide gap. This is why many indies are requiring a deposit and running background checks nowadays.

Minor pet peeve: people who drive with their windows rolled down while playing loud music.

Can't be me. The windows are all the way down and the music all the way up, air drumming and singing at the top of my lungs.

Driving pet peeves:

- Slowly driving before a red light, then accelerating when it turns red and leaves you at the red

- Not stopping at the stop sign but instead follow the car in front of you
- Stopping at the stop sign 1-2 m behind the line to be first to stop and drive
- Flooring the accelerator once you see someone to be the first at the stop sign

People who chew with their mouths open... especially chewing gum... jfc who raised you?

People who constantly post inspirational quotes.
Years ago a research paper made its way to me about how people that constantly post motivational quotes tend to show less intelligence (low IQ). I don't know why, but ever since reading that it just gives me a serious ick... and then you start noticing that its always the same people and you realise that they tend to be anything but wise. I get that they are trying to spread some good insight... but they fail to see how it actually says something different.

I noticed that they edit their first post to include the new photos (which is their main ad), don't search them in the replies!

If what you say is true then instagram is filled with people on the evolutionary regression ha ha.

Love the last one!

Love the last one!

It happens too often ...
I hate those drivers who suddenly "wake" up. The worst is that they are not breaking the law so you can't really smash the horn lol

Yesterday I was crossing the street on the green pedestrian light, and a driver making a right turn honked at me ... I was like what is wrong with you people

 

[neverbored]

People that need to stand in the street at an intersection when you're trying to turn. Stay on the sidewalks

 

[urquell]

- Construction ghost sites
- Montreal street maintenance
- nickel and dime pricing
- counter service asking for tips
- 20 self-serve tills but only 2 open, and one cashier lane open. Why the fuck are you going to put in all the unmanned spots just to leave them closed?
- Christmas songs on the radio in October
- the QPP. Everything about them.

- Slowly driving before a red light, then accelerating when it turns red and leaves you at the red

I actually don't mind this one... I rather like being the first person at the red light as it turns green.

Some of my driving pet peeves;
-Someone taking a while to realize the light has turned green.
-People who drive slow in the passing lane.
-speeders looking to cut 6+ vehicles off just to end up 1 car in front of where they were to begin with.
