For all those getting spam calls.

Something here doesn't make me feel that I am comfortable with this app.

I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Dollar signs not before the number. (e.g $123, not 123$)  >:(
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Why should it be written in a different order than spoken?

How about spoken "Meislish" in yiddish, yet written "Meisels" ?

Don't even start going down that route, as we can bring countless examples of Yiddish names that are spelled differently in English.

When I try to swipe away a notification and a new one pops in right where I'm swiping. Now I have to go check all my important stuff to try to find out what it was.

Is there some sort of way I can see notification history on Android?
My Tapatalk notifications don't always work.

You can get an app to show notification History.

Or when you try to swipe away one notification from an app, and it swipes all notifications away

Does this qualify as a pet peeve?

I think doing taxes alone qualifies as a pet peeve

That the only AAdmirals club in ATL doesn't have showers. I don't care that the lounge is small and not in great condition, but the fact that there is only one lounge and that lounge has no showers in an airport as big as ATL, is just plain annoying.

At least they let you reset it to the same password, rather than insisting on a password that you haven't used before.
