I missed that. Tell me, how did it get it's name?

It's got a mountain that looks like Kurt Russel with an eyepatch.

People who get to the front of line and don't know what they want to order.

Anyone doing anything in a parking lot

drove ~10 miles behind a car with their brake lights on last night. it was more annoying than i thought it would be.

Why doesn't some one make a raisin free trail mix?

trader joes has an awesome one without raisins. little pieces of dark choc instead

New pet peeve--why isn't there a trader joes anywhere near me?

Why not put the wattage of microwave ovens somewhere prominent, so it's easy to know which directions to follow?

Have I complained about this before? Maybe, but I don't think it's gotten any better.

should be right on the inside of the door jamb

Are you saying that would be a good idea, or that it generally is?

If the first I wholeheartedly agree. If it's the second, no, not in my experience. Instead it's on a label in the back.

My oven does have helpful information in black on black not to operate the oven with a dishtowel or family pet jammed in the door, though.

Those cooking times are bs anyway. Cook it for two mins, turn it, two more, stir it, maybe 1 more. I don't think I've ever thought about the micro voltage

People who try to diminish your pet peeves.

Think of it as microsolving your pet peeves

not being able to mic drop in my gmail messages anymore

that feature should be more widespread imo

The annoying voice. Hard to characterize other than it's usually a woman with a high pitch, a piercing sound, and lack of volume control.

On a flight, had two nasally midwestern housewives yabbering across the aisle inanely for the full duration. That episode prompted me to drop $250 on some Bose noise-cancelling headphones.

At Dubu in Elkins Park, the Koreans chew loudly, but it was a table full of young excited Merkins who proved the most annoying - just one whiny B with a shrill piercing sound and no awareness of how everyone in the damn place could hear her. Someone needed to tell her to use her inside voice.

At an overpriced seafood joint in Boca, three well-dressed 50ish folks dined near us. 2 guys in suits and a nicely attired lady who had that damn 140 decibel broad-cast voice. Her outbursts grew increasingly annoying (and she was likely tipsy) but it all ended on a good note when she fell out of her chair. I was sure that spontaneous applause would erupt, but she crawled back into her chair and mercifully shut up for the rest of the meal. I did take great pleasure in watching the fall.

BSG people who never have their phonecam ready to video the kickass funny human tricks events they witness and then only can post text narratives about

Think this was a Seinfeld episode.

Got that right. That's not just dumb, it's SEC dumb.
