Silly pet peeve's?

[JohnMatrix]

don't really have any, I try not to judge other people's quirks.

Add HIM to my list of pet peeves.

I will also add that he is probably the very kind of person that is the perpetrator of just about all of the rude, assholish things that people do in public that are on this list, since he is above it all to be bothered by the behaviors.

uhm, so since I'm not bothered by other people's quirks, then im responsible for them?

Getting on a thread to state you won't participate in the thread is a bit irritating.  And posting a holier-than-thou post is even more irritating.

I shall call you "Mosquito" since you mainly make me itch.

You are way too humble and modest.

My biggest pet peeve is people moving from big cities up north to small cities down south to get away from those cities then try to make the small southern cities act like the big northern cities.  If you that's the way you like it, why not stay up there.  We like the slower paced life down here.


A little different, but I had a Yankee woman come into my office.  She was upset because her car insurance was set do be cancelled on March 15th.  She had been back up to New Jersey because her Grandmother died and just got back.  Mind you, the insurance premium was due towards the end of February.  Anyway, she said she had half of the premium due, but wouldn't have the other half until the following Monday (the 17th).  I told her we could take the half now, but her insurance would still cancel on the 15th, there was nothing I could do about that.  If she brought ion the other half within 30 days of the 15th we could go back and show no time out of force on the vehicle to avoid any penalty from the state.  She was crying about her grandma and having to drive with no insurance, crying started when I told her the insurance would cancel.  Well, she paid the half and said she'd be back on Monday.

The following Friday this guy comes in to pay the other half.  I call the company to get the policy unlocked so I could apply the payment.  They have to hear it from the policyholder that the vehicle has not recieved any damage during the time the policy was out of force.  The guy tells me that woman is in New Jersey again, this time because her mother doesn't feel well.  He gets all pissy with me saying that her policy wasn't suppose to cancel if she paid half the premium.  It's my fault that she is riding around without insurance, because she didn't know.  Giving me that typical Yankee attitude.  Tells us as he's walking out the door to have a nice Fire Ant Festival (annual festival starting that night) in a ery condescending tone.  Then he comes back to make another remark about she paid the money and it's my fault.

Low and behold, about a half hour later, the customer calls.  She'll be by that afternoon before we close to get her insurance reinstated.  I asked her where she was, and she said in Ashburn.  Well she comes in that afternoon and I told her that her buddy got ill with us, kinda laughing when I said it.  She gets an attitude and says, "He's not my brother."  I told her I didn't say he was her brother.  She proceeds to tell me that he wasn't lying when he said she was in New Jersey.  She told him that morning to tell me she was the girl from New Jersey, not that she was in New Jersey.  I just about had it, I asked her if he thought you were in New Jersey when she told him.  She rolled her eyes and said no.  So I told her then he was lying, just because he thought you told him to lie don't make it the truth or a mistake.  She started acting like a nut telling me I had no reason to be rude on the phone earlier.  i told her I just asked where she was, because he had said she was in New Jersey.  That started the whole he wasn't lying thing all over again.  Finally, she said she just wanted to pay her bill, so I told her that's all we wanted her to do from the beginning.  That got me the whole dead grandma bit again.  That's when I told her the premium was due before you ever went to New Jersey, so that's really not an excuse.  So she just paid her bill and left.

I know I went over the line as far as my customer service goes, but I'm not gonna be lied to and talked down to.  If that's the best they can do, they can take their business elsewhere, it's not like she ever pays on time anyway.

In short my pet peeve is the whole Yankee super intelligence buulshit.  I have some friends that moved here from Chicago, and I have to put them in their place every so often.  They do shit like calling the 800 complaint line on the local KFC because they know that they send them a big sheet of coupons for free food.  And these people call themselves conservatives.  They act like they are so smart, but you can make tham believe anything, and I mean anything.

^at least they spoke English. Here, not so much. Oy!

They just think the rules don't apply to them.  Most people from here just accept the fact that that is how business is don, but these transplants down here think if they say that's not right, we're suppose to say, " AAWW now boss, youse absolutely right, I jes don no nutthin bout nuttin, cause I ain't never been nowhere."  I hate tell the assholes that I've been all over the world, and the most obnoxious people I've ever met are transplanted yankees.

I would have to agree with you there. I've lived all over and have travelled a lot. That's a pretty fair assessment. In my last job, I dealt almost exclusively with people in the North. They automatically assumed that my Southern accent = stupidity or that I was a pushover. Boy, were they in for a rude awakening. Then I became the ballbuster.

They're the most gullable people om earth, too.  Just act serious and say it with an extreme southern drawl, and they'll believe anything you tell them.

My pet peeves:

People who feel the need to inform you on how bad smoking is while you are smoking a cigarette (REALLY? I HAD NO IDEA!  )

Internet trolls

Almost everyone that live in the DC area (expect for DixieBelle of course) 

Liberals

People who start drama then whine about the drama. This can be on line or in RL

Family member you have to put up with EVERY ****ING HOLIDAY

Internet spell Nazis

Plastic bags. They just freak me out, don't know why

Looking long and hard for an item, buying it and it going on sale somewhere else

Intolerant people calling Christians intolerant. 

Teeny boppers who think today's "punk" is real punk rock

You Might be a Yankee If...
1) You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside." (guilty. I know it isn't a verb but use it like one anyway)

4) For breakfast, you would prefer potatoes au gratin to grits. (guilty, I could eat potatoes with every meal)

8) You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork. (guilty, sometimes)

13) You don't have bangs. (do guys have bangs? meh, losing my hair anyway)

16) You would rather have your son become a lawyer than grow up to get his own TV fishing show. (guilty. depending on what kind of lawyer though)

20) You think more money should go to important scientific research at your university than to pay the salary of the head football coach. (LOL, heck no, Go Bucks!)

23) You don't have any hats in your closet that advertise feed stores. (guilty)

27) You would never wear pink or an appliqued sweatshirt. (guilty)

28) You don't know what appliqued is. (guilty but I looked it up) 

31) You don't have doilies, and you certainly don't know how to make one. (guilty)

34) You can't do your laundry without quarters. (guilty)

35) None of your fur coats are homemade. (guilty but only of having no fur coats)

Spent lots of time in States that think they are "southern" but aren't really. Grade school in Oklahoma where you won't find a friendlier "hi y'all" anywhere yet it's lacking in some aspects of Southern culture. (good and bad) Regular lifetime visits to the entire extended family who live in Indiana. Good folks in Indiana, very Southern in attitude but more reliably Republican. Also, being 2 miles from the Ohio River makes it easy to slip into Kentucky for the weekend bar hopping in a place where smoking is allowed (and cheap) and the girls are friendly and prettier too.
