Re: Pet Peeves?

Asshats who leave their dog in the yard on 4th July while they go and watch the town fireworks display 3/4 of a mile away.

Of course same large, large asshats have never been seen walking the...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Yet to the northeast of Sir Eccles in Colorado, I doubt if we even hit 70 degrees today to the north of the Denver metro area. It's June 15th and I have yet to put my sprinklers on for the lawn.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I expect the $2.13 wage hasn't gone up so the expected tipping percentage has.

When my daughter worked for Noodles they paid them $8.50 an hour to start and didn't have customers tip. Though she...

Re: Pet Peeves?

I couldn't trust myself with a whole chocolate orange in my lunch. I'd eat the whole lot, feel sick and throw the sandwich and the apples away. But that was the old me.

Re: Pet Peeves?

I bought some falafels and pita pockets made by the same company which were strategically placed together at the grocery store. There are not enough falafels in the falafel bag to fill all six pita...

Re: Pet Peeves?

That way they "win" I suppose. Sort of like the person who races you towards the next red light. Take your time and you can go through when it turns green and they get stuck behind.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Ouch! My kid threw her retainer into one too as she had set it on a napkin to eat. I can't remember how much those bloody things cost but I made her find it :devil_smile:

Re: Pet Peeves?

See I've heard different things about McDonalds, that in Mexico it's customary not to do it but here in the USA it's meant to be customary to do it at a fast food place. If I'm anywhere where they...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Right on. If you're enough of an adult to be making babies, you're adult enough to put a cart away. These people are spawning the next generation of non-cart-putter-awayers.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Cabot? Actually that's pretty good. The one I get at whole foods has little crunchy things in it. Oh and they sell Weetabix. It's simply the nearest place I can get a bunch of British items at...

Re: Pet Peeves?

If one parks about three spaces away from the cart corral, which, I may add is where a lot of the carts I saw yesterday were located, I'd imagine it's a 20 second return journey. Hardly time for the...

Re: Pet Peeves?

I'd say the same but they do sell Heinz baked beans, marmite and a good line of English farmhouse cheddar.

Re: Pet Peeves?

On another note, I've seen that Whole Foods have Parent and Young Child parking spaces. Only place I've seen it apart from the UK.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Probably doesn't happen everywhere, but the selfish individuals who can't be arsed to walk their shopping trolley back to the cart corral. I understand the ones left in the disabled spaces because...

Re: Pet Peeves?

In the phone/tablet/laptop use, I use the phone as a phone as it's too tiny to do much with. It irritates me to use when I'm out and need to look up something on the interwebs. Then the iPad when...

Can't be as I see you're in MA. Cottonwoods are a western US nuisance.

Re: Pet Peeves?

Re: Pet Peeves?

News sites that autoplay a video clip. If I wanted to watch it I'd have the TV on - I'd rather read the article.

People in Colorado with the damned "Respect Life" plates. The plate was made for...

Re: Pet Peeves?

Meh. So on the vaccination front Obama was seen to encourage it so of course Rand Paul opened his mouth about the dangers of vaccinations. Purely to rabble rouse the...
