Lacey- couldn’t agree with you more about the alternate K spellings. They’re just as unacceptable outside of the education realm. I saw a car wash the other day called “Kleen Karz” – not only did it have the K’s, but it also did the dreaded Z swap.

I hate to admit that I am the fast windshield wipers guy. It drives my wife crazy.

When people turn the dome light in your car off instead of leaving it in the “turn on when I open the door” position.

Same-side-booth-sitting-couples…I can’t stand this. I don’t know why, but it sends me in to an Incredible Hulk-ish rage. It’s not practical for conversation…it’s tough on the waitress. We get it already…you’re in love…save it.

When the teacher in school wouldn’t completely erase the board. If the last centimeter of the timeline to the Holy Roman Empire is still up there you may as well leave the whole thing up…because I still see it all. Nothing worse than dots to I’s and tails of S’s still all over the board…clean it up.

I feel like I have one more good one, but I can’t remember what it is. Maybe that could be one…forgetting something good. Crap…I’ll post it up here if I can remember it.

1.) people who drive with their windshield wipers on high speed when it’s merely sprinkling outside
2.) people who go through the “10 items or less” lane at the grocery store with 30 items.

random story on the bill splitting. The first time I ever was the Captain of the “Everyone Pitch In Money” campaign was in a Friendly’s in North Dartmouth, Massachusetts circa 1996. Everyone pitched in their cash for our bill (which would never happen these days because everyone uses plastic) and as I tallied it up, I had about 5 extra bucks that i pocketed. I think I paid $2.50 for my munchie mania app sampler, which was awesome.

Problem was, I didn’t know this experience was an anomaly. So for the next 5 years of my life I always volunteered to be Captain of the EPIM, and every time we were always a dollar or three short and i ended up either being the one to tell Johnny Cheapskate to pitch in another dollar or I just ponied up for it myself. 5 years and $186 dollars later I realized that the money collector always gets screwed. And to think, all that time everyone just thought I was being a good friend.

The driver who flips on their blinker after they’ve completed 75% of their turn. Especially bad when you are waiting to pull out in front of said driver, and have wasted 10 seconds of your life because they wouldn’t turn on the blinker.

T- Just pay for the cheese dip…It’s 3 dollars. You can make up for it by foregoing 1 diaper change a week.

My newest pet peeve is loud mufflers…I don’t wanna hear how powerful you are. Nor does anyone.
