domestic peeves
today's blog is inspired by two strangers i overheard meeting at biggby coffee.
this is probably very unchristian.
1. when people say "ya" instead of "you."
the only acceptable exception is shortening the throwaway phrase "you know" to "y'know"
2. mopeds operated on non-motorized trails
are you an idiot? you're going to hurt someone.
this obviously does not apply to the time I drove my car on sidewalks on cornerstone's
campus, between pickett and the seminary. that's just a right of rebellious passage.
3. people who don't know how to drive
as demonstrated by their inability to follow signs, use appropriate lanes and understand
what "right of way" means
4. cliches that people still use and think are clever or funny
in a checkout lane: "no tag? it must be free!"
5. people parking in my designated parking spot
I get crusade-worthy indignant when this happens, be it a car or a bicycle.
I have been known to leave angry notes with colorful language on said vehicles.
what bugs the heck out of you?

I cannot even talk about it.
loud chewers,
people who state their "opinion" as if it were "fact"
narrowmindedness
when you're in a construction zone on the road and two lanes are merging into one and PEOPLE FLY BY IN THE LANE THATS MERGING AND GO AS FAR DOWN AS THEY CAN AND THEN PUT ON THEIR BLINKER AND EXPECT US TO LET THEM IN.
oh there are others, but i have to calm my blood pressure first......rest assured that i'll be back!!!
