OMG!! Nostradamus–that picture speaks louder than words. I almost can’t bring myself to look!! Ugh. Yep, that’s definitely a bad thing. . . but it isn’t my particular pet peeve. My pet peeve is:

Lazy people who leave their grocery cart parked between cars in the parking lot instead of putting in back in the dang cart rack!!!! WTH??? They never stay where people put them, they blow around either into other cars or into (otherwise) perfectly empty parking spots. Seriously? Are we such a lazy culture that we can’t walk the extra ten feet to return the cart? I know there are *some* situations that may justify this, but there aren’t really that many.

Which leads me to pet peeve number two: MASSIVE cars parked in COMPACT parking spots such as the ones in front of Trader Joe’s in Temecula. Your Escalade/Suburban/F-250 DOES NOT fit in a compact spot, try as you might. God bless ya for driving one, but park in a spot actually designed for a vehicle of that size. And if any of the carpool parents at my kid’s school are reading this: if you back into a parking spot, please make darn sure you are actually parked in ONE spot, not TWO because then many fewer people can actually park in that parking lot when you do that!

Ahhhh, my empress of the universe impulses are now satisfied. Thanks, Dharmagirl for the fun topic! We needed something light after all the small car vs. SUV drama.

p.s. I drive a small car and I only reproduced once. Now will someone please pin a rose on my nose?? Bwaaahaha!!
