Ewww. I hate that too. Our dog on the other hand loves it- it's like she has a thousand new toys to chase around the house.
Good one!
YES!!! Remotes are far more complicated than any dishwasher I've ever seen, so what gives?!?
Joke: A lady in the mall opened her purse to pay and the clerk saw a remote..the clerk asked why she had it and the woman replied "because my husband refused to come with me today...so I took his remote!"
My peeve is the toilet paper roll..they are under the sink, you are sitting anyway, why not put it on the roller and not the counter!

Boy I have to turn on some lights when I type! Lots of typo's up there. But if i correct..my "Likes" go away!
People who snap their gum and chew like cows chewing cud.
People who chew with their mouths open and talk with their mouth full.
People who answer your questions for you, even if someone else asked the question.

Mom's pet peeves are your 1 and 2..now mine! But I am guitly of # 3..I am a Hermione!
When I tell my DH dinner is ready and he doesn't respond and just sits there......so a minute later I tell him again and he say's I heard you.....well why don't you say so the first time!!!!

Gggrrrrrrr...my ex did this all the time and he'd get mad when I'd say it the second time.
I get highly annoyed when someone feels like they have to repeat something over and over and over again in order to "make a point", like I didn't get it the first time or I'm too stupid to understand what they said. One of the guys I work with does this and I just want to smack the living crap out of him. "Yeah. I got it the first TEN times you said it. Now, why don't you try sitting down and shutting up." He does this with clients on the phone and in his tickets, too.
People like that drive me crazy!!!! A lady I work with ask the same questions and tells us the same stories all the time. Some days I just want to say.....I heard that when you told me 5 minutes ago!!!!
Fudgey.. I had to laugh.... my parents are both getting that way. I make sure to go spend a few hours with them atleast a couple of nights each week and hear the same stories over and over... However, this is probably the wrong thread..it doesn't drive me crazy as I know it's just their age showing.
My son has the common male habit of literally *never* putting things where they belong. Toilet paper goes on the floor next to the roll holder, dirty laundry on the floor next to the hamper, etc, etc, etc.
To cure this I refuse to supply lifts or bus tickets unless I am shown a clean room and til I have stood him in each room and asked him to find and correct the (however many) things he didn't put back.
It would be much easier to do it myself, but I feel I am doing some poor future daughter-in-law a valuable service and at least pre-training him.
The other thing I HATE is improper use of past tenses. The very very worst is drug as the past tense of drag instead of dragged. All of my kids reflexively flinch if they hear that one, they've heard the speech so often.
This is followed closely by hanged as the past tense of hang instead of hung. Hanged is only ok if you are talking about irritating people being hanged by the neck 'til they are dead, dead, dead.
I am maybe also a teeny tiny bit picky about grammar (especially punctuation), but I usually only mutter to myself about errors instead of making a big production out of it; like for instance dragging the offender off to be hanged by the neck 'til dead, dead, dead.

Onawa your future daugher in law will be happy. I unfortunately took the easy way out and created one messy little monster with my youngest. I just hope he will eventually grow up
Iowa Gal,
I hope so, I really do. As things stand now, in the name of female solidarity, I'd have to warn any hapless gal away from his oblivious, pigsty-loving, yet curiously sweet self.
Housework Rules!
