talking about parents - my dad tells the same stories over and over and over again. every friggin week we hear the same stuff. drives me nuts. the best one was when i was at teaching practice in Gisborne. Dad had told me that some family friend worked there at some point and said it was rough. end of story. While I was there one of the teachers was threatened by the parent of a girl - a gang member. he grabbed her wrist and she had to go to the police station. the guys were camped outside her house and it was all pretty freaky - they also didn't tell me any of this - i found out later. ANyway, i made the mistake of telling dad. three weeks later he starts telling me this story about his friend who workd at gisborne girls - and it was MY story!!!!!!!! at the time they were trying to convinve uus to leave gisborne (too far away)

grrrrr. ]]> Sun, 04 Nov 2007 09:33:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240851&title=my-pet-peeve#240851 <![CDATA[My pet peeve... : When he gets something from the...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240836&title=my-pet-peeve#240836 Author: kebakat

When he gets something from the garage to use inside (say a tool or something) he leaves it inside or "hides it" somewhere inside that is a little out of sight rather than going and putting it back out the in the garage.

Leaving shoes in the most annoying places, like under the dining room table.

Lying in bed hearing Daniel cry from hunger and not getting up to make him a bottle, just waiting for me to do it.. this one is always in the morning, like 7am.

Putting cutlery in the sink, but putting plates away in the dishwasher. How hard is it to put ALL the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, rather than just half of them..

And something our parents always do.. dumping tea bags in the sink rather than walking two steps and putting them in the rubbish bin!]]> Sun, 04 Nov 2007 08:10:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240836&title=my-pet-peeve#240836 <![CDATA[My pet peeve... : haha, Rach, I hear you on that...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240835&title=my-pet-peeve#240835 Author: ShellandBella

lol fattarts

I can't stand it when people go out and don't do their hair I mean its not hard to just brush it or put in a ponytail.

I hate muffin tops too but because my tummy skin is so saggy I have a constant one even when not wearing clothes I do hate people that are quite small and would look nice of they worn just one size up tho.

leaving dirty clothes all round the house for me to pick up

unmade beds (they don't have to be made first thing in the morning but I can't stand sleeping in one)

pillows without pillow cases. Ben actually pulls them off in his sleep and it drives me up the wall.]]> Sat, 03 Nov 2007 15:39:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240719&title=my-pet-peeve#240719 <![CDATA[My pet peeve... : Oh, lordy,where to start.

Oh, lordy,where to start.

Use of handicapped spaces and stroller/baby parks when you have neither handicap or child

Seeing pregnant ladies smoking

Seeing people smoking wiht kids in the car, especially with windows firmly shut

Greenpeace/wspa etc aggressively stopping people on the street to sign up for donations, random "change I have on me dontaions" will not do.

Same Goes for the lady at New World last week from childfund who asked if I would like to help a child and I said I needed some help with my own - in a jokey way, as my two were screaming, so she muttered something under her breath at me

Crimes against fashion, as set out below.

When people wear pants that are too bloody long for them and they get all worn and gross looking. It's actually not that hard to hem a pair of pants, or if you are desperate, sellotape the damn things or take them to the drycleaners, who for $10 take them up and they will remain nice looking!!!

Trackies or any kind of gym clothing not being worn for the purpose of exersizing. ESP when worn with polar fleece and or those bloody awful croc things (although my jake has some, crocs, that is)
Not a fan of the slob look.

Muffin tops and camel toes. 'nuff said.

Various crimes against speech and grammar, written and spoken

Raising your voice at the end of a statement so it sounds like a question will land you a punch on the nose (or a disgusted look, anyways..)

Incorrect use of punctuation, ESPECIALLY apostrophies.
BAD SPELLING. I don't mind typos, but I can't bear to look at things that are spelt wrong, it makes me feel physically sick.

Rodney fanatically tidying away things that I am not finished with right behind me. Yes, I know it might have been on the bench for 2 days, but I am not finished with it yet.

Anyone is allowed to change the loo roll, or scrub away their own skid marks and open a window and use air freshener after making said skiddies.

It is not essential to SHOWER in aftershave just cos you are 15. THe idea is to smell nice, not asphyxiate anyone in a 2k radius

The kids hate sitting on your toe/fingernail clippings when they get in the bath

Smoking.

There ae so many, I could go on for DAYS, lol. These are the main ones! lol!!

Starting a new bottle milk, before the last one is finished.
Leaving his shoes lying around which I usually end up tripping over.

Unfortunately the biggest creator of mess in our house is the cat and her fur!! She's lucky she's so cute she gets away with it.

I hate clever people who act or behave dumb too, and I hate being treated like a kids at work, by the team leader who is at least 10yrs younger than me.

my biggest pet peeve (especially at the moment as Caitlin has been unsell for over a week now)

DH: "but I work longer hours than you" (he does 8am - 6pm - his own company tho), then spends the evening in front of the tv)

I work 8am-4pm, but my Mummy job starts at 6.30am when she wakes up and finishes at 7pm when she goes to bed, then I randomly clock in and out during the night when she wakes up *stamps foot and growls at DH*]]> Sat, 03 Nov 2007 13:27:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240674&title=my-pet-peeve#240674 <![CDATA[My pet peeve... : haha! i have pet peeve with almost...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240661&title=my-pet-peeve#240661 Author: BaAsKa

Where do I start......

-Dirty Towels on bed, or (and this is a fav of my DH) hanging over the door into our room.
-Piling the washing on the floor of laundry, right BESIDE the washing basket - how hard is it to open the lid of the basket and put them in there.
-My mother when she comes to stay spends all her time cleaning/doing washing, making me feel useless, its not like I am a pig in the cleaning department, just not as pedantic (sp?) as she is. ]]> Sat, 03 Nov 2007 06:49:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240570&title=my-pet-peeve#240570 <![CDATA[My pet peeve... : When DH makes a cup of coffee...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11979&PID=240563&title=my-pet-peeve#240563 Author: Mama2two

i hate when people treat me like an idiot at work.

an elderly couple, with two orders - don't put a barrier thing betwen it, but chose to bark "NO NO NOT THAT" at me and when i ask if it is two orders he says "NO" as if I'm dumb. i look confused with what the hell is going on and he explains, as if to a child "i will pay for this se-pa-rate-ly".
