Jonelle's Pet Peeves
(in no particular order)
Metal clothes hangers. They are noisy. They get
tangled. They poke holes in your clothes. The only thing they are good
for is opening a locked car door, and that's only if it's an old car.
Drivers
who don't use a turn signal. Not only is this rude, it's just
plain unsafe. I'm not a good mind reader and have no idea what
you are doing or where you intend to drive next if you don't let me
know.
Noisy
eaters. There is no reason to eat with your mouth open. No
one wants to see your food being chewed. Please fermez la bouche!
People who don't cover their mouths when coughing or sneezing. Ewww.
Invitees
who don't RSVP. I need to buy food, beverages, and
supplies. While I love hosting and very much enjoy your company
in my home, I am not rich. Please do not make me waste my money
buying stuff that won't get used or eaten. Or worse, that I will
think you are not coming and won't have enough when you show up.
Drivers
who try to get into your lane when there clearly is not enough
room. We are on a highway, not in a parking lot. It's not
fair if I hit you because you intrude on the safe distance I put
between my car and the car in front of me. Does it really matter
if you get to your destination 10 seconds faster by cutting me off?
