Pulling a cell phone out of a jeans pocket while in a car. You have to do that weird convulsion so that you can reach in, and then you have to sort past the keys/jump drive/gum/etc. all while the phone threatens to go to voicemail.

I would rather dangle headfirst over the side of a speed-boat going about 55 and try and grab an apple with just my teeth off of a passing Jet Ski than to change car seats from one vehicle to another.

Root Beer is amazing! I find this "hate" your strangest one for sure. Have your opinion, sure you do…but dude, root beer?
Hates:
-I hate when cereal gets soggy in milk. Can't eat it. Won't eat it. Cereal, meant to be crunchy
-When someone forgets to replace the toilet paper or papertowels. I mean COME ON…there's no need, I don't care how much of a hurry you are in…take the 2 seconds and leave something for the next person. It just makes for awkward moments especially when you are in the bathroom.
-walkers and joggers using the bike lane. It's for BIKES people. You don't like it when I'm on my bike on your sidewalk(it even includes the word for what it's for) so much that you made it illegal in many areas. Plus we already share that space with 3000 lb. cars and trucks, stay in your space.

To skip the voicemail message and instructions when calling Verizon and AT&T users, press "4" (at least it works in the Atlanta area). For Sprint press "1". If none of those work, the # or * buttons are last options for smaller providers.

Also for the peeve list:
-when people crank up the bass in their car while in a parking lot
-no good restaurants in lilburn
-the name change for the Atlanta airport

Oh, and I'm w/ Ev…I love Root Beer

Things I hate:

1. Birds chirping at 3:30 a.m. (I could have just stopped with birds, but I don’t want people to think I’m an animal hating person, even though I probably am…)

2. Trains that choo choo at 3:30 a.m.

3. Getting up to shut window at 3:30 a.m. to keep those noises out

4. Wisdom teeth – I know God is all-knowing, but seriously, wisdom teeth?? They just start hurting and then you have to take them out!

Thing I love:

Forming this list in my mind at 3:30 a.m. to try to get back to sleep!

I know this sounds horrible but I hate when parents think YOU are as interested in their kids as much as they are. I know you think they're precious. But to me they are just another cute kid.

I hate the Voice Mail re-instruction too! I've figured out that if the person has att you can press 1 and it will skip all the nonsense. But every once in a while I will press one and I am told by that annoying lady that 1 is not a valid option and blah blah blah. It is so disheartening.

I also hate onions. Worse than fingernails on a chalkboard in my book.

I would rather sit in a car seat, in the middle seat of a 5-speed early 90′s Nissan pickup with the shifter racking me everytime it’s put into 2nd/4th/Reverse, no A/C and the windows rolled up on an August mid-afternoon in Missouri, squeezed between two NFL sized offensive lineman, with the shoulder straps of the carseat cutting off all circulation in my arms, and my sack pinched in the buckle, driving down a gravel road filled with potholes.

I hate touching cotton balls with the tips of my fingers nails. I also hate when people walk in front of me slowly and weave just enough to make it difficult to pass them without popping them in the back of the head first.
