Chickster’s Top 5 ‘Pet Peeves’
GIMME SOME ELBOW ROOM
BECAUSE I NEED TO VENT
LUDWIG LASHES OUT
AT STUPID PEOPLE
When you pull into a crowded Kroger’s parking lot and find an open parking space only to discover your path is blocked by a shopping cart.
When you pull up to a stop sign for a right hand turn and you know, just know, your right front tire is going to feel the hurt of a crushed soda or beer can on the street.
Dudes in fancy cars with vanity plates going 50 mph in the high-speed lane on the interstate. You pass ‘em and see that they’re punching numbers or letters on their ridiculously stupid BlackBerrys.
Fast food restaurants that screw up your take-out order. Note: Never, Ever, EVER pull into a drive-thru behind a van, minivan or SUV with more than one person inside the vehicle. You’ll be waiting forever for the soda carton and bag exchange in front of you.
Waitresses like the ones at Frickers in Centerville, Ohio, who see you sitting at a table by yourself, and not only refuse to take your order, but ignore you as if (a) you have leprosy or (b) you’re invisible.

ooooh - chance to vent! How about the idiots that get in the right hand lane at a light where the road is transitioning from 2 lanes to 1 lane less than 200 feet beyond the light and then act like it is a federal offense when you don’t let them merge. Hey, buddy, I picked the lane that continues! Drivers in the lane that is ending YIELD.By Duluoz

I know many people whose pet peeve is when people call Kroger “Kroger’s”.By psychostats

Things that really bug me: (1) lists of pet peeves, (2) people with no sense of irony, (3) smart alecks who follow-up comments with links to comic strips. Hope you guys like Calvin & Hobbes … http://tinyurl.com/3naefoBy David V.
