    Pet Peeves

    These are the same people who, when you are telling a story, have to butt in with their own 'better' story. With one co-worker I started exaggerating the circumstances just to see how far-fetched their stories would become.

    Also those who post .... well I don't have chickens so I can't help but maybe someone else can. Also those who keep posting because 5 minutes have passed with no one responding. Worse, those who post fake situations wasting everyone's time. One I remember off-hand is a person asking if they...

    Have you every read the cautions on other things you buy. Just like medications, companies are covering themselves against possible lawsuits. Did you know that you should not immerse your new toaster in water? lol

    I think it would be a good thing if everyone had to spend time working in a service job. Not just a day - a month at least. Maybe then there would be more understanding of working conditions, salary, and dealing with the variety of customers.

    People who don't clear the snow off their vehicles. Clear your windows and windshield. Clean off your lights and turn signals so the rest of us know what you are doing. If you can't reach the top, get a longer brush. Otherwise that roof full of snow is suddenly going to slide off and hit the...

    Pet peeve - Ratchet straps. I don't have a problem getting them threaded and tightened but getting them to loosen drives me nuts. Just used my kitchen shears to cut through the last pair of straps. Give me good rope and reliable knots any day.

    Reported. Interestingly one of their other thread has already been locked for review. I think I'll go watch my peacock make a fool of himself in front of his ladies. Maybe a glass of wine would help too.

    Pet Peeves

    So I am still mad. This troll joined BYC last Sunday and has posted other ridiculous questions on several forums. Despite my own advice to myself, I already posted on one of those that this is a troll. I have never reported anyone. Should I in this case.

    Pet peeve - Trolls on BYC. Why do you do this? You set up a scenario then wait for responses to which you give ridiculous replies. Meanwhile others are trying to give you thoughtful advice. Most recent experience on Peacock forum has left me angry. I should have caught on sooner when I saw...

    Classes should also include driving a standard - learn to shift gears. I realize that most people may never want to own a standard vehicle but it is a good idea, IMO, to know how to drive a standard in case of an emergency.

    Pet peeve right now - Computer hackers. They managed to lock a friend's computer. He is 97 and pretty good with technology but tends to panic and start pushing buttons. At least this time he called me first. The claim was that his computer was infected with x virus and all his information...

    So those of us from Ontario are still welcome to visit I hope? The main road through nearby town used to be the highway on the edge of town. Now with so many new houses of both sides it has become the main road. It has shopping malls springing up both sides. Local council decided to...
