Things bother all of us, but some more than others and some more than they should. I've probably mentioned this and if you know me, have ever been away with me, or possibly just me being a jerk in your own house, you know my dish fetish. OK, maybe it's not a fetish, but dirty dishes left in the sink is enough to make me commit murder. Here are some new ones I've just realized.
People who cross out the days that have passed on their personal calendars - You're not in prison. Let that shit go. Also, you're most likely not so important that you've accomplished so much, you can cross it off your to do or bucket list as if you've just discovered gravity.
Couples who don't eat dinner at the dining room table....ever! - Why do you waste the room inside your home, if you're not going to use it? I get the kitchen table is fine, but sometimes people do this and don't have kitchen tables. As if sitting in the living room or the bedroom is normal. I've lived alone for a long time and still try to sit at a table to eat. Nowadays, I'm in such an odd situation, I almost feel as if sitting at the dining room table is a sin.
Phones outside - I get it, you like to stay connected, but you were just on your phone inside. You walked out, I assume, because the weather is nice, the sun is shining and you wanted to experience it. I guess I was wrong. This leads me to my next pet peeve.
People with phones who can't react quickly - You know the ones. They are texting or watching a video of a cat chasing a dog and you see something wonderful and yell "Look at that," and they, as if physically unable to lift their heads, slowly start to move, eyes firmly affixed on their phones, but painfully being summoned to look away and when they finally look, the moment is gone. They then complain about missing something someone was saying, as if the words aren't still written right in front of them.
Finally, Tailgating - No, not the party. The driving maneuver which not only makes no sense, because it's dangerous, but serves absolutely no purpose. None whatsoever.
