What are your pet peeves?

I am just a right winger looking to stir up trouble.

The petition people drive me nuts too.

-Drinking straws that are too weak to break out of their wrapping or too weak to break through a drink lid. That bugs me.

-Running out of strawberries while eating strawberry shortcake. All you're left with is a lot of red colored cake and whipped cream.

"Try and." You're not going to "try AND do" something--that doesn't make sense. I stopped reading an entire website because of one writer's tendency to use this phrase in every other sentence.

The "security" guards at Target who stand around doing nothing while they could be watching people pay and then ask to see your receipt before you leave. It's already in my wallet, in my bag, next to about a dozen other Target receipts, and you could've just watched me stand around forever at the checkout and not have had to ask. If I wanted to mess with things like that, I would get myself a Costco membership.

To everyone who hates giving out zip codes and such at stores--would you mind giving a Florida zipcode at Trader Joes? Maybe they'd open a store here?

At dinner last night, I remembered another pet peve of mine. Pepper shakers that dispense very little pepper so that you have to either a) shake the damn thing over and over and over, oe b) take the top off to actually get pepper out of the thing.

Oh! Tell me! I have half a mind to carry around my own mini-pepper mill. Particularly restaurants that use coarse ground pepper served up in the shakers with the eeney, teeny, tiny holes that can only dispense real pepper dust. I'm forever apologizing for being coarse and opening up the pepper shaker to pour out the desired amount into my palm.

My pet peeve? Chicks that won't flash me their boobs.

And not being able to give mojo when you want to. Like for this post:
