I have another message for people that go down Buena Vista to Rt.466 if your going strait you should stay in left lane the do have a law in this State you can Right turn on red.
Yes, but you don't HAVE to turn right on a red light. If I can't see properly down the street to my left (for instance, facing south at the intersection of Rolling Acres & 466), I will not turn right on a red light. So my pet peeve is the jerk behind me laying on the horn because I am choosing not to turn until my light is green.

Everyone driving the speed limit on MM Paths should get this bumper sticker.

IMHO, it is incredibly lazy to not return your cart to the cart corral unless you're handicapped.
And I'm sure most people you mentioned are not handicapped.

All the good peeves have already been mentioned!

I agree that service dog status should only be approved for actual service dogs.
It's a travesty because service dog paraphernalia is easily obtainable online.
I overheard a conversation where someone was bragging that she could fly her small dog free in the cabin
if they got service dog accreditation. And she saw nothing wrong with it. :ohdear:

Some of us need to park in a disabled spot. I do after 4 surgeries on my leg. If someone is coming out of a disabled spot I wait so I can park there. Have a little compassion.

The problem with both service animal and handicap parking use is a huge lack of fairness and effective enforcement. Just because someone has a "valid" permit, does not mean that they should have it or that they need it. I am convinced that this pet peeve issue will never be resolved in my lifetime. So, I am just trying to live with it and ignore it.

My husband insists as we get older, people can not judge distance. I guess that is true, but it should be easy enough to see if there is not other car behind the car being "cut off".

Just thought of another one I don't think has been mentioned........children sitting inside grocery store shopping carts. Think about where their shoes have been and the dogs that poop and pee all over. Then, you place your grocery items in the cart then place the food/ soda/milk/etc in the fridge or pantry. Yuck! I once saw a dog sitting in the child seat of a grocery cart with no protection for the cart. I notified management about that one.

Law breaking children of Villagers.

Well I’m annoyed by people while making a left turn don’t pull out into the intersection while waiting. They sit back behind the crosswalk the light turns to yellow then makes the left turn, leaving at least 2 cars to wait.

People who use loud landscaping tools at 7 in the morning.

It's slightly irritating when people are trying to talk and one person is like "Wait...who is Jeff Bezos. Wait...who is Nancy Pelosi. Wait, what is Game of Thrones. What is Amazon. Wait, What is gluten free. Wait, what is a government shutdown. Who is Al Capone." etc. It sounds like someone playing Jeopardy.

I mean I feel like people should know *some things* going on. Sometimes I wonder, how did you get through life to this point? Not knowing anything? Than why change and want to all of a sudden catch up now.
I know very little about Jeff Bezos. Until this fracas about his nude pictures and The National Enquirer. Now I know Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post. I didn't know that before yesterday.

Oh this is what you mean? People wanting to be in a conversation and don't know what is currently going on. Sorry. I will try to do better. ;)

I would rather kiss some dogs than some people. I certainly don't mind children in carts either. I do like Rum Raisin Ice Cream where most people prefer chocolate. If we were all the same...………...

Jeff Bezos is also one of the richest people in the World... around 130 Billion $'s or so... that's a "B". He also owns a company that is working on space travel, Blue Origin.

I did know that Dan. I was being facetious.

He also told NYC to kiss his patootie today. He isn't building there.
