Two pet peeves of mine. 13 Oct 07
I have an two unusual pet peeves. It drives me nuts when some one asks me a favor and then gives me a totally none relevant reason on why I should do it.
In case you are unsure of what i mean here are a couple of examples:
“Do you mind if I use some of your fancy honey mustard, because in opened a bottle of pickles for you in July of ‘88″
“Could you help me with the question, because your great uncle ran over my neighbors puppy. ”
“Mind if I use your hairdryer, because the strength of the Loonie has put my father out of work, and i can’t afford a hair dryier and no one likes wet hair.”
The only time it is allowed:
“Can I have $500 a month for the next 18 years, because you knocked me up.”
I know I sometimes can be a bitch, but don’t try to guilt me for your own personal gain. Just ask, I don’t need a reason to be nice, sometimes I am nice just because. The worst thing that will happen is me saying no. I cannot even express the amount of anger I feel when some one does it. Just do not do it. As much as I love mind strangling people, I am afraid that someday I might physically strangle someone. I think me saying no is a far better alternative then death.
My second pet peeve is harder to explain. It really bothers me when someone alludes to the fact that when some wrong doing occurs, and in doing so tactlessly blames me. Just because I ate beans for supper, it does not mean I farted. If you got something to say, then say it. If you dance around the rose bush, you will get eventually get pricked by a thorn. I didn’t fart that time, but you just wait.
Argh. People suck.
