Yeah, I’m gonna have to go with littering on this one too. I never realized how annoying it can be until I saw it done repeatedly. Just find a trash can and/or get some respect for the Earth that God has given to us.

Jeremy’s made me think of another one: Along the lines of the spitting and garbage, I hate it when I step in someone’s chewing gum because they just spit it out on the ground. Like Jeremy said, how hard is it to find a trash can?

Two Words: Ryan Troske

I hate when people just throw garbage and cigarette butts wherever they please. I’m not a tree hugger, but c’mon, how hard is it to find a trash can?

I also hate when people spit. Its so nasty. If you gotta spit, at least do it where people won’t see or step in it.

Jacob, I’ve lived in South Florida where things run on Cuban time. That’s a completely different world. I went to a wedding that was scheduled to start at 1 PM. It didn’t start til 2:45 PM. Over half the family didn’t get there til 3:30.

I totally agree with all of this. I hate being late, and I don’t like when others make me late. And that old saying that you quoted, is what I say all the time too : ] But, anyways good blog!

I’m with you, David–I can’t STAND to be late. And if I’m running late for whatever reason, I am normally freaking out in my car trying to figure out how to get there faster without killing myself and three other drivers in the process. Glad to know I’m not the only one who gets annoyed by constantly late people. And wouldn’t you know that many of my friends are the ones that are constantly late?

I think my biggest pet peeve, other than general rudeness, which is a huge category, is when people talk during movies. I’m not sure why it drives me so crazy. I think it goes back to the rude thing. It is so inconsiderate of the other people in the movie! Also, if there is a lot of background noise, I have lots of trouble hearing, so I always miss things, and that really bugs me. Rest assured that, if you talk during a movie I’m at, I will be the one shushing you…

Interesting blog!

Maybe you’d feel differently if you spent a month or so in a South American country.

Thank you! Thank you for writing what others have been thinking for years! Being on time really is inconsiserate to everyone else in the world.
