Pet Peeve of the Day.

[TheSilentChamber]

What just really pisses you off?



Few of my pet peeves:

People who use "U, R, 4" and so on insted of accually writing the word, I can't spell but atleast I try.

Drive Throughs that ask if you would like to try *enter new product here*.

Parking lots where the rows arnt at angles, so theres allways cars talking up like three spaces because there big ass car cant make a sharp 90* turn.

People that never stop talking on cell phones, its not that important - shut the hell up.

People who act like they have a medical degree and allways know better than the doctor.

People who work at parts stores that know nothing about cars.

Fat people who drink diet coke - who do you think your fooling.

People who give exact change for everything they buy.

I have more... alot more but I cant think of them at the moment.



So whats your Pet Peeve of the day?

[Civic Jim]

people who talk too much (women usually)

bad/ slow drivers

kids who scream or dont behave

people on forums who reply when they dont know fuck all and just guess or say what the rest do

rust on my arches lol

women when they wont give you any "because they are tired" lol ( never happens to me now )

people who park by rubbing the kerb to know that they are close to it instead of judging the manouver

[turtlecrxsi]

People who try to sell their rims with "minor curb rash"... learn to drive. (note: my father is an instructor and would be more than happy to have your business)

Toddlers in restaurants (not fast food places)... why?

People who drive vehicles that are bigger than they need or can handle.... especially when talking on their cell phones.

People who have POS cars that cut out in front of you and don't realize that you're on their ass in no time and then they wonder why.

People working in a professional environment (eg. academic workplace) that cannot put their accents away for awhile and speak cogently.

The computer bringing up an AF page as slow as 56k even though I'm on broad band... ugh.

I'm sure there are more... yes I have issues but I'm dealing with them.

[Civic Jim]

I used to drive a buick, like a tank. But with a few bucks in the motor it ran a 13.8

Dude you can find plenty of those. I've seen alot when i used to live in chicago. I was gonna grab me an '87 grand national for 10g's! He had a chipped computer, shaved the head a little for a higher compression and he told me it was tuned perfect and run'n high 12s or low 13s. It had about 78k miles on it. I usually see them go for 15g's plus! I'm sure you can find some on autotrader or cars.com. Try finding a gtx though. those bitches are hard to find.

[TheSilentChamber]

yeah, thats what I ment, About 10 years ago they were so common they were really cheep, now there not so common so the prices have gone way up. I'd like to have one but I'm not dishing out 15+ for one. Heh, if I could sell my civic for enough to buy one I would. Trying to sell my gremlin so I can buy me a Furio or MR2... got an itching for rear motor.

[mellowboy]

Mr2's are overpriced! My boy is convincing me to buy one since he got his. Lots of ppl are asking 5g's plus on a motor that has way above 120k miles on it! I wouldn't deal with it. If i can find one cheap then yeh i'd get it.

Pet Peeve of the Day:

People who pull up to the gas pumps and stop at the first one, thus taking up both pumps because the front of there car is infront of the second pump now.

I like this thread already

- People talking on their cellphones and going 40 mph in a 65..not realizing there's 20 cars behind them.

-People who take it upon themselves to be the "bright headlight police" and flash there brights at you when your driving home from work at 2 in the f-ing morning, AND YOUR BRIGHTS ARENT EVEN ON.

-People who bring there crying kids into stores and public places and just ignore them while they scream. Shut the kid up we don't wanna here it! Just beat it's ass that's what my dad did, lol.

-Kids who have no manners..no common sense and no respect to anyone or anything. Get's worse with every generation..

-Snappy people, who all of a sudden get all moody and snap at you. Calm the F&$K down!

-People who swerve over the line on the road (Sometimes related to pet peeve #1) and their tires kick huge rocks at my car. Putting chips in the winsheild and my carbon fiber hood.

-Winter, Snow,Ice or any form of cold shit that falls on my car..gets kicked at my car..and makes it f-ing cold in my lovely home state of Mt.

-People who let their kids/pets wander around town and they go into my yard and mess with shit. If you can't control them don't f-ing have kids and don't buy pets!!

-People who start fights or act tough

-People who talk shit and dissrespect you and your g/f..family whatever. It's not needed.

-People who think they are better then anyone else.

-People who make assumptions and cast blanket statements over something they dont' even really know about.



And yes I deal with almost all of those on a day to day basis :/ lol

EDIT: oh and Silent reading your 1st post again just reminded me of another one..

-Drive throughs who forget to put the crap you ordered in the bag...and you realize it 7 blocks down the road..so you have to turn around..go back and fight the manager Matrix style just to get your damn fries.

[mellowboy]

OH heres one...


Girls put'n on there makeup while they're driving!
