Exactly. If you're in a hurry to an appointment or something, Gramma Moses is on the road. When there's no rush, it's clear sailing.
Can I say my peeve is sitting at work all day? OK, really it drives me crazy when my in-laws buy my kids stuff before I can. Can't I be the one to buy them that big item first?

I agree with the sitting all day comment notebookgirl (but then I go home and sit in front of the SKMB until my bum goes numb!) I think I should go apply at Shopper's Drug Mart - I like to shop there and that way I could be more active and also get the employee discount 
i hate it when you are waiting for a parking space and the other person knows but they whip their car right into it anyway and cut you off.
I always wish King Family fan that I could be like the character that Kathy Bates played in Fried green tomatoes and crush their car.
Don't give me any ideas this morning. Have lots to get done in little time. Would have loved to do about 20 minutes ago. LOL
or when you're about to pull in to said space and some loser pulls through from the other side..... i swear, that makes me want to beat the sh*t out of them.
Sorry, I was in a hurry..........
Ugh - my boss does this with 10,000 expense receipts every month. Which I then have to unfold, tape down and copy - thank you IRS guidelines.
Another one that gets me is people using apostrophes just because there's an S at the end of the word. There isn't supposed to be one for plurals but people use 'em anyway. Can't STAND that!
Pencils whose lead slips out of the wood when you're sharpening the point with your knife. One of those unexplained mysteries...this get dropped too many times I wonder? They need to tighten The Code on pencil manufacture? Some over-worked machine in Muncie, Indiana distraught over the unwashed coffee-maker in the break room? What? Do they make pencils in Muncie? Yeah, give me a handful of those Number-Two Muncies. Top-notch for me, nothing but the best. Or one more recent...say you're about to nail something w/the nail-gun, you've got the tip of the nailer just-so...a helper is straining, pushing on a stud, and you're about to pull the trigger to pin it in place? Out of nails. You and the help are all set to participate in a moment of glee...nailed that sucker...this is what separates the men from the boys, yes sir...they don't build 2x4s like they used-too...and you run out of nails.
Another driving joke from George: Ever notice that everyone that is going slower than you is an idiot and everyone that is going faster than you is a maniac. (or something like that)
Brilliant.
You gots a pet named Peeves? You mean like the poltergeist from that Potter series? All's I gots is just two dogs. They ain't named Peeves though...
Naughty pet...but extremely funny. harsh language. Don't open if you're easily offended.
Another pet peeve... when somebody uses the three dots of death... (elipses)... as their only punctuation... in a post or an email... and even in some written works I've seen... it drives me NUTS... I can't read whatever it is... even if it's from someone I dearly love... like a relative... I hate it.
