Pet Peeves

^ I love reading your honest pet peeves, Joe. I don't necessarily agree with you on all of them but some make me laugh.

When people on autism forums bang on about there being no such thing as severity levels on the spectrum because every Aspie is too different, but then in another thread they suddenly admit that severity does exist across the spectrum.

People who move next to a race track and then complain about living next to a race track.

Going somewhere with a friend of the opposite sex and people assuming you are a couple.
People that move to rural areas then complain the roads are bad, the store doesn’t have their special food or water, the cell phone service is bad, the locals are weird, “ That’s not how we did it back in ——-.”
Nosy people.

When decorative pillows have those stupid tags sewn into the corner and you have to spend 20 minutes picking them out with stitch ripper.

When you can't find your stupid basket.

When you can’t find the lighter or weed.
And the basket they are in.

When you can't find yours, either. ^^
Or you find a bag but it's 10 years old.

Rooms that don't have ceiling lights, so you have to buy five thousand lamps and five thousand corresponding tables even though you don't really use the lights but if you don't buy them people will think you are a vampire. Even though no one comes in the house to be those people.

Political Correctness on steroids.

People who post something that someone else feels the same way or agrees with, and they reply just by posting "this".

Next to "first", I hate when people post "this". I know it's difficult to post everything in clear and complete sentences, especially on a phone, apparently I'm in the Dark Ages now for still using a desktop computer, but it's still annoying.

^ Ditto.

People still trying to shake hands.

I don't really have any. I kinda just ignore many of the small things that I find annoying for some reason or another, so I don't think about them.

Maybe behaviors of others that are there just to cause discomfort for others. I recall a time when going to pay for something, I asked if card was fine as I couldn't see a machine, and the dude said no with an angry tone. I stared down at him for such and he laughed and said he didn't like serious people in a mocking tone and pulled out the machine. Mind you, this was just after I came back from some hell, so my affect and demeanor would have been blank from such. So yeah, that'll be a pet peeve of mine. People should be nicer, I guess.

Conversations are essentially over when certain people join in.
