It's OK to haggle at retail stores now. Sweet.

Haggling in a weak economy is OK, really : Gina Hughes : Yahoo! Tech

This came to mind as I've noticed the reappearance of "ranting" threads pop up over the past couple of days... and this is not to meant to spark arguments. What are some of your worst pet peeves?

These can range from anything like online etiquette to daily life issues.

Now please before you dive in, PLEASE REFRAIN FROM FLAMING. I want this to remain as clean and calm as possible, we're all adults here. If you disagree or are offended with a certain pet peeve... please keep it to yourself (or if you must... report it). Lord knows we don't want to upset the mods or even end up having this thread get shut down. Let 'em rip...


I'll start off with my benign pet peeves...

-Turning on the radio only to hear commercials on every station.
-Receiving the majority of my phone calls at the most inopportune times.
-Struggling to read posts due to the TOTAL lack of sentence structure.
-Conspiracy theories... they are counterproductive and cause more harm than good.

Service-industry people who don't listen.

Misspelled words.

When someone at work tears into my USA Today before I do. Get your own, they are free, after all.

Having to ask for a cup carrier at Sonic when I order 4 drinks and I am alone in the vehicle.

Having to stop at a red light when I am the only car on the road for miles.

This thread could be a mistake. I may learn some new ones.

Haven't you heard of no cop no stop?
On another note, I work retail, and will not Haggle with you sorry. If you can't afford what you want, wait for it to go down in price more, or get more money. It's not worth my time to pretend I work in a flea market.

We have haggled before. In fact we did this when the economy was great. We were paying cash for bedroom furniture. Got them down from 8k to 6k.

- living with people who don't rinse their dishes before placing them in the sink, so that the food gets stuck to the plate
- people who drive under the speed limit in the left lane
- the misspelling of a lot
- there's plenty more, but they seem so cheesy

To add another one:

I do tech support for a job right now, and I hate when I get a male caller who doesn't want to talk to me because I am a female and he think he'll get a better answer from a guy. It irks me beyond belief. Then, when I talked to the customer he didn't even know what I was talking about, he was just throwing around computer jargon like he did. Ahhh.. Sorry just had to get that out.

YouTube - Elephant Paints Self Portrait

This is an amazing video I came across... I originally saw it on Good Morning America. It's an elephant who painted a self portrait.

That elephant can paint much better than me!
