Re: Pet Peeves
Sand and pea gravel aid digestion. They accumulate in your gizzard to help you digest food. I think that is more perk than peeve.

Re: Pet Peeves
People that use motorized blowers to clear sidewalks and street gutters
creating huge clouds of dust and debris.
Generally with no consideration to passers by.
If it bugs you that much.......grab a broom and a shovel
This goes for bagless lawn mowers with the chute pointed into traffic also.

Re: Pet Peeves
Castanets drop down menu's that are way too sensitive. Damned annoying!
I got Married because I was sick and tired of finishing my own sentences.
That's worked out great for me!

Your small motor skills are not like they used to be. A sure sign of old age. I am sure glad I don't have your problem.....yet.

My pet peeve today is forums that are too restrictive.

Re: Pet Peeves
my pet peeve is off one liner jokes/off color remarks that completely derail threads.

Re: Pet Peeves
Made that mistake when we first moved to Kelowna. Bought a house next to a vineyard hoping to enjoy the fresh air and view from our patio on sunny days, then found out sunny days are when orchardists spray and fertilize. Thankfully there are always new people moving to Kelowna that are hoping for the same and don't know any better.

Groups of oncoming pedestrians who do not share the sidewalk and look surprised and/or put out when you stop directly in front of them until they give up your half of the sidewalk.
