2 On Tuesday–Pet Peeves

Happy Tuesday! Thanks for coming back and linking up!

Just a quick reminder of the rules – please link directly to your 2 On Tuesday post and not to your blog. Thank you for participating!

This week I want to know:

What are your pet peeves?

I hate when people go through the drive through window and order enough food for 15 people. I hate it even more when the workers don’t tell them to pull up and wait – they make the whole line wait while they make 15 hamburgers.

It’s called FAST FOOD for a reason.

I hate when you get all the way home, only to find your salad is missing or your fries are cold. Cold fries are terrible!

I strongly dislike word verification. If you’ve been reading my blog for awhile, you know this about me.

I hate people who present themselves as one type of person but then through their actions prove themselves to be something else. For the record, saying “I’m a Christian” does not make you a Christian. Your belief in God, your belief in His teachings, and your application of said teachings makes you a Christian.

Sometimes I don’t like Twitter, because the constant back and forth makes you realize people aren’t who they portray themselves to be on their blogs.

I dislike whining. Which my son has perfected over the last couple of weeks. Maaaaaaaaamaaaaaaaa is not a 20 syllable word.

I don’t understand why plus size stores sell an abundance of clothes that are either sleeveless or have super short sleeves. There’s a big chance that if you are plus size, your arms are not your best asset. Why can I never find 3/4 length sleeves?

What are your pet peeves?

Amen, sister!!!

I was stuck behind someone at Dunkin Donuts this morning that got handed 12 cups of coffee, 2 donut boxes, a few for muffins and a whole bunch of little individual bags. I just want my single cup of ice coffee, darn it!

And, I totally dislike my arms...Give me short sleeves, not cap sleeves!

LOVE the plus size store pet peeve!!

I hate sleeveless shirts! I don't even wear tank tops in the summer!

Mama Zen said...

I keep telling my daughter that I have a strange condition that makes me unable to hear whining!

You make a very good point about fast food AND plus size stores. I have been stocking up on LL Bean cardigans - they come in 3/4. A little pricey but great quality and I can buy those shirts and just cover them up.

I like wearing my summer tops year-round, but don't love my arms. I have lots of cardigans to help hide the fluffy parts.

SO excited you chose this topic. :) I'm really cranky right now, so I could write a novel about things that irk me.

I will link up in the morning. I have to laugh because I feel that way too about the plus size clothes. They have horrible patterns and half the stuff is sleeveless. I am 60 and believe me you don't want to see my arms and I refuse to show them. I like a sleeve that almost comes to my elbow!!!

Stephanie said...

LOVE all of your thoughts (pet peeves!). Whining = boo, fast food = hot fries are a must, 3/4 shirts = look good on everyone, christian = actions speak louder than words!

Hope you have a great Tuesday! XOXO

What a GREAT idea for a post!! I needed an outlet to vent about some stuff!! I know what you mean about the whining....it's like nails on a chaulkboard. And the fast food thing? I get that all the time!! I hate having to sit online for 20 minutes just to order...I could have made dinner in that amount of time!

Emily said...

I've gotta say. I'm totally with you on the word verification and the short sleeves. I just want 3/4 or elbow length sleeves people, COME ON!!!

Amy said...

I am not a fan of whine kind of whine either.. I like the other kind of wine.. It is hard when children do this.. At night when you are ready to have a nice quiet night.. Then it starts as they get sleepy..
Have a great day..

Amanda @ 2LittleBugs said...

I so agree with almost all of those! Especially the fast food and short sleeves!

Andrea, one pet peeve I didn't mention on my blog list:

That people who participate in these and other weekly MeMes don't go to others blogs and read/comment.

Spoonful of Me said...

I couldn't agree more

Karen said...

Plus size stores or catalogs....I want to see a plus size model or mannequin! Seriously, I don't want to see a size 10 in a plus size outfit. I want to see it in a PLUS SIZE! And why can't plus size stores have plus size mannequin's?? Is there some law against making cuvy plus size mannequin's?? I hate how they always pin a size 20 shirt to make it look good on a size 8 mannequin! Drives me insane!!

Hi, I'm Andrea, and welcome to my blog! I am a 31 year old sassy southern momma to a beautiful baby boy. I'm also a social worker, and my husband is a submariner in the US Navy. I have two very loved and spoiled chihuahuas, who are featured frequently in this blog. In case you are wondering - no, they don't bite! I got the inspiration for the name of my blog from an OPI nail polish called My Chihuahua Bites. Please check back often and be sure to leave a comment so that I can visit your blog as well. Thanks for visiting!
