Re: Pet Peeves?
Some new things are acceptable of course in moderation, but in general (and always in written and spoken English) - shite. I stand by that

How no is is ever able to grate cheese straight. Always end up finding the block of cheese at a dodgy angle.
How no one in my area is clearing the massive buckets of leaves off their pavements, so you end up finding a massive pot hole as a fun surprise, or the pavement is like a ice rink after a splash of rain.

Well, there a few more things. In general I am in favour of technological changes, of course - the more of that the better.

Squaring off the end of the cheese (eating it) is one of my main culinary duties in the kitchen. That and food mixer thingy licking.

Cheese grating is not easy. I made my wife grilled cheese yesterday and she found the supermarket label and barcode in it halfway through eating it

I suspect that Mrs N usually buys round or wedge shaped pieces of cheese!
