What are your pet hates?

[Amy :-)]

Those little things people do that we just can't stand even though we know they don't really matter. Please tell me I'm not the only one.

My pet hates are:

When people leave the dregs of their milk or tea in the bottom of their cup and it goes all dry and stained and yucky.
When someone empties the water jug and doesn't fill it up again.
When my brother does the dishes and doesn't squeeze the water out of the sponge or wipe all the bits of food from around the edges of the sink.
When someone empties the milk carton and leaves it out on the bench to go smelly.
When girls paint each of their fingernails a different colour.

I'm sure I have heaps more but these are just the ones that spring to mind right now. Does anyone think these are justified or am I just really petty?

You can make me feel better by sharing your own if you like

Oh dear Amy  - you have started an interesting topic!!
My pet hates are all of yours above, and for the rest of them - i will have to sit down and compile my list .
Which may take me some time

I probably have a huge list too!

Although my biggest pet hate is there is one girl in our very small office who changes the toilet roll and then places the empty cardboard roll on the floor. The bin is about 6 steps away, but no she can't put it in the bin she puts it on the floor, every time. I always pick it up & put it in the bin. It annoys me no end!!

I'm not going to comment on this topic as I'm afraid I will go on and on and on and on and on and on

Ok now you have got me started. My pet hates

When someone leaves an empty plate I the fridge

And when there is two drops of milk left in the carton in the fridge

Empty toilet rolls on the floor

Dirty clothes left on the floor in the kids rooms

Cupboard doors that are not closed properly

Kids eating in the lounge room even though I have told them since birth that there is NO eating in the lounge room

Dirty finger prints in glass doors and windows

Odd socks

Towels thrown in the washing machine with clothes

Kids jumping on my bed when it's made

Dirty dishes left I the bench rather than in the dish washer

Clothes that I have spent ages folding messed up and scrunched up.

When I mow the lawn and it's all tidy then the tree decides to dump heaps of leaves on it.

Kids walking outside with socks on and no shoes

Oh I could go on and on and on.

Gert, I love the simplicity of your answer

LOL Mandi... what can I say except the obvious? You have 5 children
But everything you mentioned has a place on my list too and I don't even have kids. Just parents and a brother.

[DizzyGirl]

Ditto Mandi.

My Dear Husband that has a warped sense of humor that is standing here..... advises

Exercise

house work, thank god I have a husband who can cook, clean, wash, fold clothes, and fix everything.  ( I am very spoilt)

My biggest pet hate,

People who judge other people on appearance only.
for example, my thinking is........

If someone walks into our shop looking Daggy, thongs ect, they are probably a multi millionaire.
If someone is dressed up to the nines, they are most likely in huge debt...

Usually I am right.

Off my soap box now.

[mcmich]

Don't know about pet hates....try not to focus on them and cut the people in my life and those I come in contact with a break as they do for me.

Pet Loves:

When DH does the shopping and I come home to flowers that he has arranged in a vase.

My neighbour brings in my washing because they see the weather turning and know I'm at work.

My DH leaves a note on the steering wheel of my car telling me he loves me.

My DD turns up unexpectedly and says "Mum lets get pedicure"

My SIL makes a calender using photos of family events from throughout the previous year.
