Your irrational pet peeves

People who use Comic Sans is a professional setting. Grow up

Even in school settings this has become a joke. All three of my kids laugh about their teachers' love of using Comic Sans.

I think people like using it because it looks more like someone printing rather than type. Maybe it is a comfort thing.

FB friends who post 10 billion pics of their kids doing random boring things. I now hate those kids.

I used to say this. But then I had a kid. I don't post on Facebook because I only have an account so I can access my business page but I can see how easy it would to share.

I'm not talking the 'hey, this is pretty cool...' posts, which are nice. I'm talking, "look, here's Jr eating cereal and a dumb caption", then 15 more like it the same day.

"You'd think differently if someone had done that to Sidney Crosby!"

Yeah, no kidding, genius.

When ESPN breaks a story, they always mention ESPN. When somebody else breaks the story, it's "media reports", as if they're too good to mention another network.

Low-demand Monday-night games. I can't go to tonight's game due to work and didn't have any takers for my ticket on Ticket Exchange even though I set it at the minimum price.

Pens were selling tickets to this game 30% off... so yeah demand just wasn't that high.

Such are the hazards of the free market.

I can't stand honking in the city (Chicago). Especially when it's done by cabs and when there is nowhere for the target to go anywhere. Recently, I was getting out of a cab that had pulled over, obstructing traffic. A cabbie two cars back starts laying on the horn like there's an alternative. Pissed, I get out of the car, turn around, and flag down the honking cab like I need a ride. Not realizing I just got out, he gets over two lanes and pulls off the road to pick me up. I wait for him to stop, walk up to his door, then turn around and walk into the restaurant. He leaves flipping me off and honking down the road. It's the little things but that satisfied me.

People who don't clean the snow off of their car before driving. It's not my fault you didn't give yourself a few extra minutes to clean your car off so you aren't late for work. It sucks not having a garage, I know because I don't have one either. So don't be a dbag and clean the snow off of your car so it doesn't come flying back in my face as your drive 60 miles an hour.

Driving at 60mph is how I clean off my car

I just got a new snow brush/scraper thing that extends to like 4 feet so that I can reach the middle of the roof of the truck. The brush also swivels to be broom like so that I can get the targa on the bed of the truck too. No snow on my truck while driving!

I don't care if it's powdery but I've seen 6' x 4' walls of ice fly off the tops of minivans and SUVs. Not to mention what flys off the top of 48' trailers. That better not hit someone's windshield.

Not to mention that a lot of times your taillights are covered by snow piled up on the bumper, so people don't know when you're braking or stopping. Pretty sure its illegal to drive with a snow covered car anyways.

Side story...driving up I-70 near Hagerstown MD a huge sheet of ice blew off the top of a tractor trailer, tumbled through the air & smashed on my windshield right in front of my son sitting in the passengers seat. Fortunately it hit flush & just broke up. If it had come in edge first it probably would've broken the windshield and hit my son square in the face at 60mph.

Nothing says smart and valuable like giving a smeg what font someone uses!

[Crankshaft]

I typically don't care about fonts but I loathe people who use backgrounds in outlook e-mails.

Somebody uses Comic Sans....
