#QuestionOfTheDay: What's your pet peeve?
Passive-aggressive behavior that includes chronic lateness
@GaryPoole
When someone says “busted” instead of broken.
@GaryPoole why? Do you live near a stadium?
@GaryPoole I used to be annoyed by them until I realized I could just turn my rearview mirror a bit and ignore them. Maybe just slow down a little too. At night it’s fun to make their headlights shine back at them. 👀
Food and booze out the back of a vehicle ?
@GaryPoole: Brake so they have to turn off the road into an alley.
Then they will be alleygators.
@GaryPoole People who should know better saying "Continental United States," when they mean, "Contiguous."
Meteorologists, for example.
@GaryPoole
Customer service representatives who only follow a script and don't listen to customers.
@GaryPoole
It's not always about the person. Sometimes companies prohibit CS staff from deviating from a script (looking at you, Comcast). It's the idea that it must be followed without deviation that bothers me, regardless of the reason.
@GaryPoole When dogs are allowed to run off leash in areas clearly posted with signage stating that dogs must be leashed. (I say this as a dog lover with 2 pups of my own.)
@GaryPoole: People with a lack of emotional self-regulation.
People who know things are stupid and/or destructive but do them away because ZOMG! The Feeeeelz!
The people mentioned above who apologize-ish later and get shirty because you don't buy it.
"Fake it 'til you make it." When I was a kid that was called "grifting".
My biggest pet peeve is tailgaters. Grrrr!
