Day 7/ 31 - Your pet hates



Pet hates?   I apologise now if I offend anyone reading this!  I have kept this list short as I'm sure I could go on and on.
  1. Not saying "please" and "thank you" - manners cost nothing.  I have been known to say it to/at people when they forget in the manner I would do to my son!
  2. Chewing food with mouth open.  I'm glad you're eating but I don't want to see it thanks.
  3. Coughing or sneezing without covering your mouth.  Germ-fest - ewwww.
  4. Not washing your hands after going to the toilet.  
  5. Drivers that tailgate.  I am not going to drive faster if I'm doing the speed limit end of.
  6. Drivers that seem to have lost use of their hands - signalling helps everyone you know.
  7. Drivers that use their mobile phones - speaking or texting. 
  8. The use of expletives.  I get that there are times when we are driven to use them but every other word?  Really?  Is your vocab really that poor? And no it doesn't make you look big either!
  9. Not bothering to iron clothes when really they need ironing.  You just look scruffy.
  10. Poor spelling.
  11. Poor time keeping.
  12. Expecting respect.  Respect is not something that is given freely, it is earned.
  13. Those that lie.  The truth always comes out, it's only a matter of time.
I am stopping there for fear I alienate you all too much.

  1. Agree with every one of these. Although If I'm being honest I have been known to commit number 9. Only a few times though, promise!

    1. I don't have a germ phobia but don't appreciate people sharing them when they don't have to!

  3. You aren't going to alienate me on any of those! With you 100% (I would say 110% but THAT really annoys me!)
