One? I only get one? I have sooo many! Grammatical errors. They annoy the heck out of me. I don't know why. I am the grammar police in our house. I remember when Stephen was 4 or 5 and he was telling me a story saying "...and then I bringed..." at which point I just gave him the hairy eyeball. He quickly backed up and said "I BROUGHT.." and continued with his story.
I think the other one that tops my list is eating noises. I do NOT need to see the food in your mouth. I do not need to HEAR you eating whatever it is. Do not slurp. You CAN eat soup quietly. Trust me. Lip smacking is a no no. Humming while you eat and general orgasmic happy sounds just annoy me to no end. I don't need to hear it. Food should be a quiet experience. Finger sucking. Licking your fingers after you eat? That is just gross! Oh, and please, please, PLEASE refrain from talking to me with food in your mouth. I will be quite happy to wait until you finish chewing.
I have a friend who feels the same about the noisy eating. We are planning a coup in the name of the quiet eaters of the world. We plan to unite and take over.
Now I sound like an uptight psychopath, don't I? LOL!
LOL, I would never make it as a guest in your house, especially if you were serving chicken smothered in BBQ sauce.
ReplyDeleteA psychopath? No. You sound like my husband! At least with the chewing noises pet peeve.
ReplyDeleteI love the concept of your site! It's a genius idea, really! :)
You definitely don't sound like a psychopath! I think you've hit all of my pet peeves on the head. I have a friend who manages to slurp cereal. Ughhhh! It drives me so crazy!
