OT: What’s your pet peeve?

My mother-in-law is the Coupon Queen. We can’t go anywhere without her saying, “WAIT! I’ve got a 25c off coupon for that…somewhere!” And the archaelogical excavation begins.

Exasperated and starving, I once said, “Hey, how about if I just GIVE you a quarter? Then can we go?” Didnt go over well at all.

I gotta hand it to her, though. She and my FIL built their own house in the 50s for about $5K in the midwest. Sold it a few years ago for $350K. They were able to retire early because they were always careful with money. Every year they went to Hawaii for at least a month- but always paid for the trip with the cash they earned by making crafts for a local senior center. I dont think they’ve ever carried a balance on any credit card.

I often clip the coupons but most of the time I misplace them, forget to bring them with me, etc. My husband learned how to wheel and deal from his mother, and he’s a savvy coupon/rebate guy. He will always find a better price than me on almost anything. When we bought our SS appliances at Home Depot a few years ago, we ended up with a rebate AND a $250 gift card that he somehow talked the manager into throwing in.

Saw this one today on the 56 in CV – Some douchebag has one of these 3 series BMW from 1998 with the windows fully tinted and an M series tag on the back. I should have bumped him – the car would have exploded. (http://www.castlegarage.com/Car%20Pictures/Hatchbacks/6.JPG)

Love the people that tag their riceburners with false credit, love the F-18 wings and the mufflers that are totaly obnoxious. There should be a good samaritan law that anyone is allowed to stuff bananas up those stupid shitbox’s whenever possible.

Ahh, items that bother us, the list is endless…

Sometimes I wonder about myself however, that I let too many things bother. Better to let it slide…

Regarding cell phone usage, it is even more annoying (and horrifying) when people talk on their cell phones in the shared restrooms at work. While “using” a stall! I cannot believe how often this happens at my office.

Two guys are sitting in adjacent cubicles in a restroom. One guys says, “Hi!”. The guy in the next cubicle thinks it’s better to be polite, and responds back with a “Hi!”. The first guy then follows with “How are you doing?” A little bashful, the other guys anwsers “Err …I’m doing fine …thanks?” The first guy then boldy says, “Do you mind if I pop over?” In anguish, the second guy who is still confused, but a nice guy say’s “I’m a little busy right now”. The first guy then says, “I’ve got to hang up now, there’s somebody in the cubicle next to me who thinks I’m talking to him.”
