Happy Friday! Absolutely...Or the people who either just force you out of the way or glare at you when trying to navigate a grocery aisle...I've looked at more than one and said, "Excuse me works." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growing up in Southern Indiana I've always said the farther north you go the more rude people get. 10 years ago I'd blast people right back. You wanna play that game, OK. Now days, ya probably get shot so I stay right here in Hamilton County unless I have to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the scale of pet peeves I know this is way down the list but what drives me crazy is when people just barely push their cart into the return bin outside. I actually organize it when I see it because it drives me crazy when people just push it in the the general direction and expect the help to do everything. I've probably complained about this before. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWB Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Along the same lines pertaining to people in the aisles, I absolutely hate it when someone is leaving the grocery store, Walmart, wherever, and then stop right in the middle of the exit door with people behind them. Most of the time they have their heads in the phones (same thing as up their rears). No idea of what's going on around them, or all the people they disrespect by this action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Pet peeve in a round about way… My car told me that it was 43 degrees up here in NE Indiana. Guess that translates to “ get your shorts out.” Which leads to my peeve that there will be a bunch of sick people around town next week 😡 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 (edited) It drives me nuts when people enter the exit or exit the entrance at stores where is possible. It's the only time I'm a real dick in public. I refuse to move out of the way. Also, when people park their cart on one side of an isle and shop on the other. It's America. We drive on the right, shop and move through the isles on the right. Edited February 2 by mrflynn03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or like today a couple did a good job of getting their cart out of the way while they were looking, lady coming the other way parks her cart right next to theirs while she also starts looking?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. I know, right! You've begrudgingly waddled your fat azz across 3 parking spots to "return" the cart, and just have to show your final level of contempt by getting it close'ish. You people ARE part of the problem. Sadly, it's so normal, I don't even notice anymore. That is the pathetic part. Which removes me from being part of the cure. ... here's a 22 catch it.

Drroogh Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 So I finally started using my Echo show again to play music. Months ago a song I hate came on and I tried everything I could to get Alexa to put it on a banned playlist!!!! Instead because I gave it so much attention it now seems to be one of my favorites!🤬Luckily I figured out how to tell Alexa to SKIP!! AI at its finest! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawatchHoosier Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 (edited) I own a couple small businesses and each have one restroom with one toilet. About once every three months someone will steal all the toilet paper. Two days ago I went into work early, made my coffee and did my daily. After I finished I went for the toilet paper only to find out there was none. Luckily my wife was there and answering her phone and she brought me some toilet paper.

jv1972iu Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 I really don’t like hearing some individual singing the national anthem at sporting events. Just get a military band to play it.
