Master Thread of Pet Peeves

I was talking about the year!


(I'm not '21' or maybe I am '21')

Read here and on for the next few pages. (No idea why such a beautiful TR had to be ruined like that, whatever the story was...)

And here through the next couple posts.

Your post just reminded me...

Many zip codes contain more than one city.

There are websites that give you a dropdown for City after you input a zip.

[Super Speed]

And why in the world do they give you a dropdown for states when you would otherwise only have to type two letters???

Especially annoying if you live in a state where another state begins with the same letter and is earlier on the list.

Equal issue with years. Sometimes i gotta do alot of scrolling to get to my birthdate.

If you're New Jersey, keep hitting N until it gets to your state.

A certain DDFer is constantly poked fun at because of his (and his Rabbi's) seemingly overly stringent religious and ethical beliefs. I think that's horrible. If you think you're not obligated to do it, don't do it, but don't make fun of someone for being stricter than you.

But that DDFer shouldn't go troll other people for not holding on his standards. If you are makpid on something don't post it as a question on someone else, or even as a matter of fact on someone elses thread where he did what you don't do.
Ps. I have no clue what/who you are talking about, but just putting this out there.

I usually just type O and scroll up. it's faster (i'm in NY)

Today I pressed N several times and it scrolled down to NY for me.  I never thought of this before.  Maybe next time I'll try O.  Thanks.

Cheese packaging that's impossible to open without destroying the whole thing leaving you with needing to use a ziplock to store 2 slices of leftover cheese .

I gave up on that one. I officially store my cheese that way, and I actually find it more convenient.

The plastic under the cottage cheese or chrein covers removed only 3/4 (usually cuz the opener was lazy to get up during the meal to throw it into the garbage), then every time someone takes they have to get the back of their hand dirty...

Well they can finish taking it off....

There's an Improv Everywhere video of dozens of people going into Best Buy with blue polos and khakis. I think it was posted in the video thread.

Am I the only one who books the wrong dates on BA, due to thir calandar week starting on Monday?

The crazy thing is, that the calandar that opens when you book using the booking area in the left margin starts on Monday, but the calandar that opens when you hit 'change your search' (cause you cant enter dates there, or it confused the month and date) starts on sunday.

When someone asks a question & I need more info to give the correct answer & he doesn't respond for 2 days. Then I have to go back a few pages to find his original post just to remember what he even asked. I (don't ) understand not everyone could hang out on DDF all day but could you stick around for 2 minutes just in case ?

Been on both ends. But sometimes the asker waits around for those "two" minutes, but the question is only answered in the third...
