99 percent of restaurants and public busineses crank up the heat in winter. Gets too warm for me.

It's as though you can actually see the "twinkle" fade in their eyes.

It's a trend that I hope dies soon. Give me a professional server anytime.

Exactly!
People that are just rude and obnoxious for no good reason.

People that are back stabbers

People that are envious

People that have to put down other's to make themselves feel better about who they are...

People that take themselves to seriously.

People so wound up they are on explode mode...

People who seemed to have fallen asleep at the green light and cause you to miss the light.

Welcome to Seattle, which brings me to my next pet peeve.

12. Seattlites. What a bunch of bland, yet queer douchebags!

Teenage girls and young women talking: talking on their cell phones constantly, at restaurants, while walking through malls; using "like" incorrectly, as in, "So I'm like . . . And she's like. . . . And that is so, like, totally . . . whatever."

Teenage boys and young men wearing ball caps indoors, even at restaurants.

Posters who type "loose" when they mean "lose."

Stupid people.

Pop-up ads, spyware, adware. I have considered the death penalty as suitable punishment, but I'm not sure.

Stupid people "working" at fast-food joints, invariably messing up your order.

Stupid young waiters and waitresses saying "you guys" in every sentence: "How is everything for you guys?"

Everything-a-commercial on baseball broadcasts: the Fox ads behind home plate on the pitcher-batter shot; the "Time for the Dobbs Tire Cracked Bat Exchange"; etc.

Christmas stuff that starts up in mid-November, even before Advent begins, and then ends after only the first of the twelve days of Christmas.

Nose studs as a job requirement at a coffee shop I frequent.

Piercings, tattoos, and other forms of body disfigurement as a fad. Time's up!

Employers making employees work on Sunday mornings, leagues scheduling activities for kids on Sunday mornings, etc., as though people don't go to church on the Lord's Day.

Stupid people. Have I mentioned that?

How about the word "irregardless".... no such thing.

Also when people are sick to their stomach and say I'm nauseous..... nope... you are nauseated because if you are nauseous you are a substance that makes people sick.

As I once told a guy who came to my friends restaurant in Miami wearing his hurricanes hat: "This aint a ballpark. Take it off now!"

Men who wear hats indoors better be circumsized, if you know what I mean. Otherwise, they should get flogged along with the a-sholes who blast hip hop out their windows at 3AM.
