Inconsiderate Interrupters

Another huge pet peeve of mine would be when people interrupt me. Whether it's the person I'm talking to or someone coming into the conversation. I find it incredibly rude and incredibly annoying. I'll simply be talking to a friend, when someone else jumps in and starts to talk over me as if I'm not even there. They don't pardon or excuse themselves, they just start talking while it is obvious that I am. The worst is when you're talking to someone and they don't look at you while you're talking, then you realize they're not listening. Then when you tap them or ask them what you just said, they just be like "oh, sorry i wasn't listening." Thanks a lot. The one's I want to slap the most are the ones that interrupt someone else's conversation. The one's that just butt in and think what they have to say is so much more important than what everyone has to say. It's not like I'm talking too slow or too quietly, you people just can't be polite. You can't even manage to say "excuse me" or "sorry do you mind if I ask so and so a question?" Here is a bit of advice for all of you interrupters out there; think before you speak! We listen to what you have to say, even if it puts us to sleep, it's the polite thing to do!

Noisy Eaters



This is definitely in my top five most annoying pet peeves of all time. I don't understand what's going through someone’s head when they chew with their mouth open. Did they not learn proper table manners when they were younger? Do they not have any respect for the people surrounding them? Obviously not. Hearing people chomp and “schlop” their food makes me wants to pull my hair out of my skull. It is such a rude and revolting sound to listen to especially when you yourself are trying to eat. I lose my appetite completely after hearing my sister crunch on her soggy cereal every single morning. It’s also difficult to tell a noisy eater that what they do bothers you, because even after you tell them, they will still continue to do it. Although some of the mouth-chewers do have breathing problems or sinus issues, that is no excuse for you not to leave the room. If you know your nasty animalistic chewing bothers us, then don’t do it around us! It’s that simple! You will be saving us from a lot of discomfort and irritation and you might just save yourself from getting a fork jammed into your forehead. It is extremely difficult to withstand the noise of someone smacking and slurping and chomping on his or her food. Surely it’s not too much to ask people to gulp air and food separately?

Hello!


Hey everyone,
this is my first blog so I apologize in advance if I make any mistakes.
It took me a while to figure out what my topic should be since I feel that I have a lot to rant about. Therefore, I chose a pretty broad subject; people's personal pet peeves. I’m sure there are a lot of people out just like me that are dying to vent about their pet peeves. I think it’s good for people to release their anger in some shape or form. Doing so on the internet is a lot easier and less problematic then complaining to a friend or family member. Some people just don’t understand us. That is why I’ve created this blog. For anyone who’s ever gotten so frustrated and irritated by a person, object or action that they want to inflict physically pain on someone or something. From stupid drivers to noisy gum chewers, and ditsy airheads to repulsive scents of body odor. Those are just a few of the hundreds of thousands of pet peeves we will be venting about. I hope that you all enjoy yourselves and maybe even get a few laughs out of it.
I look forward to hearing your stories!
