 Re: What is your pet peeve?
I've had patients with it and they never braced, I mean it hurt/sucked, but they never braced the wall (yes I was in the damn bathroom with them watching them go, part of my job.) But I guess it's not like I've hung out and watched every dude with it go, so I dunno.

Took me forever for people to stop calling me brad and brett at work, fuckin douchebags... you'd think a less common name would be more easily remembered. even more douchey is that we had a temp last winter named Brett and the floor manager always called him Brent! like, are you fuckin serious dude?! That's funny I get called Brent or Brett. Yeah it get's old...

Maybe bracing doesn't set in until after recovery. Bracing doesn't bother me so much as guys that mutter to themselves in the restroom. I don't know what this one dude in my office is always talking to himself about, but it creeps me the hell out. It doesn't help that he drives an old buick with windows reinforced with steel mesh and has that "old man with dead bodies in the backyard" air about him.

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
I would also like to add those dudes who put their hand up on the wall to brace themselves. Unless you came in with a walker or crutches, why do you need to do this? I could go so many ways with this one but I think I'm just gonna throw out counterbalance and morning wood

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
I become very annoyed when people start sentences like "Is it bad that I...?"
also cannot stand people acting like anything to do with bacon, zombies or ninjas is automatically funny and cool. not sure if anyone knows what I'm talking about, but for one example have you heard of the "Epic Meal Time" guys?
that's another one, the way many people use the word "epic" really irritates me.
lastly I hate to see electricity, water, etc. being wasted. I can't wrap my head around the idea of just leaving lights and televisions all over the house running 'round the clock. I find it difficult spending time at friends' places who do things like that.

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
^^^ +5 to all of this ^^^
women who waste the time,money and academic resources of going to college for 4 years to hunt down a trophy husband and then become a professional soccer mom, my aunt did this and it is one of a hundred reasons I want to puke in her face freeze said puke and then beat her to death with it, I've seen it happen to friends and they had to not go to school or take out a bizzilion loans because big sis "had to" go to college I know men F up said opportunities as well but in this instance I know it is premeditated ALOT of the time

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
• Adding to the "epic" / "legit" awful word list: "sick." • There / their / they're, your / you're, then / than, etc. Shit that any given fifth grader should know but some middle-aged people do not. • Making word's possessive when they should not be. *• Dubstep. Oh! One for my fellow designer nerds: • Papyrus • Inked God • Bleeding Cowboys • Scriptina Gareth Infinity wrote: lastly I hate to see electricity, water, etc. being wasted.

An ex-girlfriend that I lived with would enter a room, turn on the light, then just leave it on after she had left. I would always get up and say "LIGHTS! EVERYWHERE!" and go turn all of them off. Absolutely fucking ridiculous. * See what I did there.

^Good one. My sister did exactly the same thing. (Trophy husband derscribes that guy perfectly too!  ) I never understood the point of the college education then... It's like she did it just for the social side of it and to be able to tell all the other soccer moms, look at me, accept me too, I went to this university and that sorority... She is a sweet person and I have no problems with her but that just always seemed wasteful to me...

Clearly I wouldn't have a problem with guys that have medical conditions doing this, technically I only see this in certain parts of the country. It still is gross to put our hand on the wall though, regardless of the reason. I'm going to go one step further with the bathroom thing and mention people who think its ok to have a conversation on their cell phones while on the toilet. In public. Gross. I will also say that if I hear this going on I make it a point to flush the toilets multiple times, leave the hand dryer on longer, etc. Seriously not necessary. You'll be done in a few minutes, wait and call them back.

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
Here's one I have as a young/newer parent:
Older parents saying shit like "Welcome to Parenthood!" or "Aren't kids GREAT!" in a sarcastic manner after you just complained about being stressed/tired by your new kid. Seriously why would you say shit like that to an already stressed out, younger/stronger, and pissed off person? Why do you want death so quickly?
I guess it bugs me because I don't know anyone who is a parent, pre-kids, strutting around mocking people with kids. It's not like there's a bunch of people out there w/o kids saying "FUCK THAT IT'S EASY WOOOO!" Why not offer some relief? Why be a dick? I use the "blank stare" on them after garbage like that. Makes it nice and uncomfortable.

I have a problem with people I work with that act the same way but, about working crazy hours. example: working 80+ hour weeks 7 days a week with no days off for 2 months and on a sunday you're leaving work and your lame ass coworker says "have a great weekend" and gives a stupid fuckin smirk. Every single sunday btw

 Re: What is your pet peeve?
Man... you stressed out MF'ers need toys!  All these driving ones make me laugh. Having moved from So Cal to Alaska, I am the most relaxed driver around. I never speed or cut in front of people. If you have 5 cars in front of you up here it is considered heavy traffic. -40 temps like today are a serious pet peeve of mine but it's my fault for living here.

you troll! seriously though, there is no shortage of bad dub step. Don't even get me started on big name artists like Skrillex selling non 320kbps mp3s to kids who have never heard music on anything other than than their sh!t laptop speakers. What was considered dubstep 5 years ago has little in common with the rubbish being churned out presently.
