Pet peeves: People who tail gate while I'm driving, guys who hiss at me when I walk by them (It wouldn't hurt to say "Hello." you know.), parents who let their kids run all over the store, screaming at the top of their lungs (Put those brats on a leash, will ya?); people who don't take the time to know me as a person and rather playa hate instead; women who wear designer clothes, hair and nails done to the max, yet pull out a EBT card to pay for their groceries; people sitting in the car behind me, blasting their music so loud, my car is vibrating to the beat; dogs that bark too friggin' much (Like shut up, already!), music videos that depict women as sex objects, people who don't know how to mind their own blankie blank business (Get a life, you loser!), seeing that damn "Your computer has performed an illegal operation and must be shut down." message pop up on my screen. :p When I email people, giving them mad props on their site or something, and they never take the time to email me back. (I know the real world is busy and all, but damn, would it hurt to type out a simple email response like, uh..."Thank you." perhaps?! Sheesh.)
