Haiku Hump day - Pet Peeves

That’s right, pet peeves! Come on, folks, we all have them, some of us have a lot of them (*cough* *cough* me), so what annoys you? Here are a few of mine,

People whistling (see also, multiple and/or loud sneezing)


When an old fart pays with a check at the grocery store


People who text during a movie (see also people who talk during a movie)


Being held hostage to someone else’s cell phone conversation


Bathrooms with with a mirror positioned so you can see your whole self while seated


Allowing a phone cord or hair dryer cord to become hopelessly tangled


More,

TV shows or ads with doorbells, ringing phones, or alarm clocks

Websites that blast music or any type of audio as soon as it loads.

Being put on the speakerphone without warning

Explanations beginning with the word 'Again'

Mumbling, then annoyedly saying "Forget it!" when people naturally don't hear

Wheedling a promise out of someone while they're trying to be left alone to sleep

Asking "Do you suggest ___?" Where the blank is clearly something not suggested

Thinking that one has the only correct background for understanding an issue

Purposefully mangling someone's name or handle as a form of ridicule, e.g. Klinton

Receiving fundraising calls on behalf of police, firefighters or other public servants

So hit me with your pet peeves, I’m expecting a lot from you grouchy Horrorthonners
