More Pet Peeves

Awhile back I started a series of pet peeves and kicked it off with my gripes about Television.  It was nice to hear from you all via comments that I’m not alone in the little things that irk me.  This weekend I’ve been out and about a bit and noted several more pet peeves to [...]
