    Also, one write-in peeve of my own.

    When faced with whether to drop some wet towels on the carpet or the linoleum, most people would rather get the carpet all damp & shitty, right? image

    Similarly, how about the folks that just step right out of the shower and soak the bath mat? I HATE that shit! Dry the fuck off before stepping out!!
    can you see where I've fixed this for ya? :glasses:

    Drying off IN the shower never occurred to me! LOL...But the mat isn't totally soaked, just a little wet where my feet touch!

    throwing things haphazardly around when 'cleaning the garage'...so haphazardly that they apparently did not notice that they smashed the container holding a gallon of car wash soap.

    So instead of washing my car, I was trying to clean soap up off the garage floor. I had to pull a bunch of stuff out to rinse the soap off of it. :anguished::angry:

    Run out of clean towels and uses yours
    My hubs and my daughter both do this to me...and it's not that we are OUT of clean towels, it's that they forget to get one out of the closet and are too lazy after getting out to walk their naked self out to the closet which is literally right outside the bathroom....it pisses me off so much!

    They are trivial indeed! Inconsequential and this is a wonderful place to bitch about petty shit we are torturingly - bravely - forced to endure ;)

    Usually goes something like this when dining out:

    "Where do you want to eat?"
    "Oh, I don't care, you pick?"
    "How about Restaurant 1?"
    "No, we just ate there last week."
    "How about Restaurant 2?"
    "Eh, I didn't really like it last time we ate there."
    "How about Restaurant 3?"
    "Oh, absolutely not! So-and-so works there and I can't stand that bitch!"
    "What about that new place?"
    "We ordered lunch there at work and it wasn't any good."
    "Uhh, ok, so, where do you suggest?"
    "I don't care, wherever. I just know I'm hungry and I need to eat soon."

    I make him pick, I could really eat leftovers from the day before, but he won't eat them until a week or more later (gross I know).
    "How about burgers?"
    "I had burgers for lunch"
    "ok, Thai food?"
    "I'm going to a lunch meeting tomorrow, and we usually have Thai"
    "pasta?"
    "ehhhhhhhh......"
    "FINE! YOU PICK"

    I don't even know why he asks me. :angry:

    That's true. I guess what I was trying to say (in a short-hand kind of way) was that I think it's better to focus on what you LIKE about a partner rather than dive into the negative place of focusing on things you DON'T like.

    I am always surprised by the way people inadvertently build up negative feelings for their partner!

    Oh, it's all in fun! No one's hating on their partner and pretty sure most if not all love and like their sweethearts way beyond the pet-peeving.

    Venting! ...and fine, making a bit of fun of them too - or the situations.

    On that note, I'll say it riles me when my guy's gone to bed before me, usurped my pillow, and is holding it so tightly I have to have a mini tug o'war to get it back =)

    I have some family that takes their minor annoyances too far. My brother once immediately dumped his girlfriend for cheating at a board game. Closed it right up and made her leave. My cousin also dumped his girlfriend in college because she beat him at Madden Football in front of his friends. I think we are alright! :lol:
