20 Pet Peeves That Drive Everyone Nuts

One thing. There has got to be one thing that makes you want to scream. Sometimes it depends on where you're from. Because I work in a location en route to New York City, many customers hate when people move too slowly. In contrast, southern living moves a lot slower. Nonetheless, how we perceive others 100 percent depends on the mood we are in.

1. Leg shaking.

This is usually people who have a hard time sitting still. Either way, I do not appreciate my chair bouncing.

2. Loud Chewing.

I think this would bother everyone. Or maybe i'm just crazy. Am I the only one who noticed that some men make moaning noises when they eat?

3. Nail tapping.

Guilty. After getting our nails done, every girl likes to find a nice countertop — Taptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptap.

4. When people use your belongings without asking.

I'm super laid back. I don't care if you use my mug or use my pens. But food? Never touch my food.

5. When people eat your leftovers.

This is probably one of the worst things that happen. I spent my whole day looking forward to eating that. That was my leftover lo mein, you jerk.

6. When people push you in a crowd.

Never touch me again.

7. Putting the toilet paper the wrong way.

This one really gets to me. Toilet paper should always have the little flap on the top. I do not wish to tickle the toilet paper roll.

8. When people say "ew" to what you eat.

This happens mostly when I try to eat healthy. Trust me, saying "ew" to my raw vegetables doesn't make it any easier for me either.

9. Slow cashiers at Walmart.

I really don't want to be here. I really should have gone to self checkout.

10. When people listen to their music out loud in public instead of using headphones.

Trust me, nobody wants to hear that awful taste in music.

11.The word "moist"

Nobody likes this word. It has no importance in the english language.

12. Expensive coffee.

I have an assignment due tomorrow, I don't need to spend $4 for a small espresso.

13. People who stop in the middle of a sidewalk.

I do find an excuse for this if you find a Pokemon. Catch em all kid.

14. Stupid hashtags.

#LikeforLike #Followforfollow #selfie #pretty #girl #human

15. YouTube ads.

Get out of here, no one invited you.

16. People who don't use blinkers.

It is not that hard.

17. People who mix up "you're" and "your."

I think we learned this in third grade.

18. People who intentionally dirty a public restroom.

This isn't your personal pig pen. Go piss on your floor at home.

19. When people make plans and then cancel at the last minute.

I got out of bed for this...How dare you...

20. That noise when a steak knife screeches across your plate.

That noise is physically painful. It hurts my soul.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
