Really only 5?
But I have so many!
1. Mouth noises! I hate, hate, hate when I can hear someone chewing. Hearing the crunch of cereal, nuts or popcorn is horrible but the squishy, sticky, smacking sound of a banana about pushes me over the edge!
2. Negative people. "Oh man {totally said in an Eyeore voice} there's a 40% chance of rain today." Great, you know that means there's a 60% chance it's gonna be a beautiful day right? Suck it up, pull up your big girl panties and move on!
3. Heels that have cracks in them deep enough to be mistaken for a Vegas slot machine. Actually that qualifies more as something that completely grosses me out but the lack of a regular pedicure {or the use of an electric sander} is a pet peeve! Love yourself enough ladies to not offend the person standing behind you mkay and I'm sure your husband would appreciate not hearing the sound of your feet snagging the sheets at night too!
I had a picture here that was very, well, GROSS. I have taken it down after a few people notified me telling me they lost their lunch! You're welcome!
4. Ignorance. I recently ordered a pizza, growing up outside of Chicago we are use to our pizzas being cut in squares, I told the young girl on the phone to please cut our pizza in squares. She replied..."ummm, Ma'am our pizzas are round". I told her I understood that and that I just wanted the pizza slices to be square not the pizza itself. Again I was told, "yes Ma'am but we can't do that because our pizzas are round." I finally told her to not cut the pizza at all, that didn't go over much better.
5. Being mistaken for the only person that can clean up a mess or put something in it's correct place. Here's an easy rule, everything has a place and every place has a thing. The garbage can needs a new liner after its emptied, after you make a sandwich the bread not walk back to the pantry on its own, the laundry needs help getting into draws, the empty toilet paper roll cannot find its way into the garbage can alone, etc, etc, etc...
That's 5 but really there are so many more
*Don't use the Lords name in vain.
*Toilet paper should always roll over not under!
*Don't sneeze into your hand, yuck, use the crease of your elbow.
*Unless you are one of the chosen few do.not.correct.my.children!
*Speak your mind, don't mumble under your breath. Grow a pair and say what you have to say or shut up!
*Don't act stupid when caught in the 10 items or less check out lane with a cart full, you knew exactly what you were doing.
*If you can't afford a babysitter stay home. If it's not a G rated movie than it's no place for your 2 year!
*Don't freaking interrupt me. RUDE!
*Children that tap my arm.
* The shopping chart corral is there for a reason, use it!
*Gentlemen, cologne is meant to be sprayed on not marinated in!
*People who have done it better, no matter what you're talking about.
*If you must talk on your cell phone in a public place please keep your voice down because I could really care less!
Ok, I could continue but long posts are a big pet peeve of the hostess of this linky so I'm going to go spend some quality time with my amazing husband and my brilliant and beautiful daughters as to not piss her off.

1. Totally agree!
2. I can't stand negative people, but I think overly peppy people are more annoying!
3. Gross!
4. How do you cut a round pizza into squares?? Just kidding!
5. I am mistaken for that person, too!
Using the Lords name in vain is a big no no for me! Don't do it around me! Even if it's OM. Which I have been guilty of using a few times.
Love your list! I can't stand to hear people chewing, it is the worst. My husband will sit and eat potato chips and that will be the only sound in the room, drives me up a wall!
Great post. Try Rocky Mountain Foot Butter. My whole family suffers from cracks the depth of the Grand Canyon and this stuff works.
Great list, I could have written this myself. But the Movie one would probably have been my number 1! I can not stand to see a 'child' watching a rated R movie! Even PG-13 sometimes are not meant for pre-teens!
I pushed my cart through 7 inches of snow yesterday to return it to the holder.
You'd have been so proud of me!!
Ack! That picture! Gah! I'm blind.
I like your list, both the top 5 and the expanded version at the end. Although I am someone who will correct other people's kids if the parent isn't doing it. (But their behavior would have to be pretty bad in order for me to step in...)
Ack, so many of your list on the bottom I was going to say but deleted em! LOL!
I was enjoying your post until I got to the picture...ugh...I just threw up a little and couldn't finish....sorry momma.

What a great list! My daughter about loses it when she hears someone scrap the fork across their teeth. I have just seen her cringe when her friends do that. So nailed #1 and # 3 was bad enough without the picture. How can people do that to themselves and others! YUCK!!!!
Love your last 2.. I swear you sounded just like me...I may have my kids read your list just so they know it isn't just ME!!! LOL
Agreed - except for the pizza thing. I don't like square pieces for some reason? It ruins it for me!
That picture is nasty. Blech.
You are the BESTEST friend in Florida that I've NEVER NOT MET! ;)
1. Mouth noises are appalling. I have relatives that don't keep their mouths closed while eating. I leave the table. Seriously.
2. Yep. I had Debbie Downer too.
3. That picture just freaked me right out. That's disgusting. Please remove it. But I agree. And I also think that you shouldn't wear open-toed shoes if your toes don't look appropriate.
4. There are stupid people everywhere. UGH. But that poor thing was just not bright was she?
5. Welcome to my world. I guess it comes with my "job" to get all of this done. M takes out the trash but hardly ever gets a new bag and he sometimes puts the toilet paper roll on (the correct way) but that's about it.
Additional:
Sneezing freaks me out in general. BLAH.
Kids in a theater make me want to pull my hair out.
I hate interrupters too but sometimes I get excited about the topic and interrupt. I HATE when that happens.
I'm a shopping cart basket returner. Thank you very much.
One rule in my classroom was NO TAPPING. It drove me insane.
I linked you up! Thanks for posting!
xoxo
Great list -especially #5! I also like your add ons like- the TP fo sho needs to be over not under and rude people -Urgh!
Well said! I can remember being horrified when hubby and I left the Dark Knight (we got a sitter) and saw some morons hauling out a little girl who couldn't have been more than six. The kid had to have had nightmares for days and I hope she woke her parents up every time.
Ewww... I can't stand the gross heel thing. Gross.
I prefer my pizza cut into squares too.
First of all you are A-dorable! Love your painting on canvas. Just awesome!
Love your list. I use the Eyeore thing all the time. It's so true!
Thanks for linking w/the RHOK today.
Amen to all of those, and I mean every last one of them...from the sneezing into the elbow, to the toilet paper needing to roll from the top.
#1 makes me think you might be related to my husband. Although, it drives me crazy, it sends him COMPLETELY OVER THE EDGE...crunchy cereal, slurpy soup, clanging silverware on the bowl, sucking up pasta...you name it, he hates it.
I totally agree with #2. Big girl panties. Check. Glass half full. Check.
#3 makes me feel self conscious. I need a pedi in the WORST way.
#4 is hilarious. Poor girl probably doesn't even know how to tie her shoes.
I think you're preaching to the choir on #5. It seems to be the moms job to keep up on all tidiness, meal cooking, errand running, and nursing back to health. I don't know how that happened, but it did. Seems to be something we should blame Eve for. I don't know how, but it sounds good.
Glad you linked up today!!
Mrs. Edwards :)
Preach it, sister! I agree with ALL of them 100%, even the pizza.
We had (notice I said had) a little greek pizza place and they cut their pizza in squares. I LOVED it. I mean I could put away a whole pizza and not feel like I ate very much. LOL!!
Thank you for linking up with us on The RHOK for our McLinky Monday!

1. Word. Zip IT! iI do Not want to hear the smackin!
2. exactly!
3. i think i still threw up a little just thinking about it. ew!
4. really? squares blew her mind? sads.
5. i AM the only one in this house that picks up. it's a major problem.
you are on a roll girl and i can say i was able to check check check on down the list. i am with you 100%
Preach it Sista! I think I pretty much agreed with every single one of those!!! I am still laughing at the pizza thing... poor kid, guess she will be working at a fast food joint the rest of her life. LOL
Well...first of all I'm stinkin mad I can't see the picture now....I've been a little busy today...(see blog). I actually posted. And one of my heels is cracked and I just got a pedi two weeks ago.
I have been in a movie with you where you almost beat Little Ms. Puerto Rico up...I know we both almost had to take off our earrings.
Remember..she kept texting on her phone right by us....and lighting up the whole movie.
Well....all I can say is that you made me laugh and I miss you and Florida very much today. Love and Hugs!
Poor pizza girl....I hope she stays in school. Haha.
Chicago pizzas in my eyes are the best pizza I've ever had. Uno is definitely is the place to be for pizza.
I love you. Seriously best list ever! I totally agree with pretty much all of these.
Hahaha...I am guilty of #3 in the summer. I NEVER wear shoes and my feet get so rough! But not grossly cracked. I don't think. :)
I agree with your big long additional list!
