My major pet peeves are #08, #09, #10 and #11. Still annoyed with the rest of the behaviours that I listed, but all depending on my mood..
(1) Rudeness - it doesn’t hurt or cost you money to be polite & be kind to others. - why you have to treat people differently, based on their social rank? - if you don’t have anything nice to say, just shut-up! - I always observe how other people treat the waiter/waitress, it is a good indicator of how nice a person is IRL.
(2) Line cutters - Cutting in line at toll booth, at cashier counters, at crowded roads, at lift entrances etc. - There are social rules you MUST follow, this is one of it! - Other people’s times are as precious as yours, d-bag!
(3) Thoughtless drivers & bikers - Driving too slow in the fast lane. - never use signals to change lane, hello! I cannot read your mind. - never plan their journey, sudden stops/brakes, if you know you need to turn left soon, then keep left. - tailgaters. - bikers who conquer the road. - bikers who have their jackets unzipped/unbuttoned while riding, it’s distracting!
(4) Obliviousness, in general - Texting & talking during movies. - Texting & talking on the phone while driving. - Parents who simply ignore their misbehaved child. - People who walk slowly or stop suddenly in the middle of the sidewalk/pathway, i.e. Pokemon hunters.
(5) Discontinued Products & Menus - I avoid buying limited edition perfumes & make-ups because I know our “relationship”won’t last long. - I have favourite dishes/beverages @ my usual F&B outlets, keep on ordering the same menu until am sick of it, then I will change. Too loyal? Or afraid to try new ones?
(6) Indecent Clothing - men wearing saggy pants until your brief/boxer can say hi to me. - women wearing shorts that are too short (daisy dukes), eh why do I need to see your butt cheeks? - women wearing off shoulder/spaghetti tops with pink bra straps exposed, why can’t you buy strapless? - women who go braless in public.
(7) Chronic tardiness - always late for no good reason, no guilt, no sorry, just goofy smiles. - slow to decide or very indecisive on what foods/beverages to order, then eventually, simply copy others. - slow in performing tasks assigned, affecting other colleagues, overdue but unable to commit to new date, keep quiet & never update the boss/team. - slow inresponding to work emails.
(8) People with poor hygiene practises - Not washing hands after using the restroom. - Messy/unflushed shared toilets. - Stuffing used toilet papers into sanitary box (meant for used pads). - Blowing noses at the table. - Spitting in public esp. out of the lorry/taxi/car/bike.
(9) Strong body odour - smelly armpits. - smelly sweat. - smelly breath. - smelly feet. - people who don’t shower in the morning.
(10) Toxic friends - Friends who eat food off my plate with or without asking just because mine looks more appetising. - Friends who unashamedly share “my dessert with me”, hello! I don’t share my dessert esp. ice cream, ever! - Friends who talk about themselves a lot, non-stop, all about them, them, them. - Friends with agenda. - Friends who are too nosy. - Friends who are holier than thou. - Friends who say “Let’s make plans!“ then acting don’t know this don’t know that, leaving me alone, making the actual plans, making every decisions, they just wanna show-up, but then start complaining this & that.
(11) Stupid questions + unnecessary remarks - Are youChinese? Are you Sarawakian? Yes, I have very fair skin but that doesn’t mean I belong to a particular race/ethnic, people have been asking this Q all my life, please stop!  - Why you always wear black? Hmmm… because black is the new pink. - You smell so good, which perfume are you using? Hey, if I tell you, you’ll go & buy the same. - I have been looking for the same kinda pant/jeans/skirt/dress/top etc, what brand? Duhhh… very shallow & intrusive, miss copy-cat detected!
