Or best yet... just send a PM and don't post anything about you, sending a pm... cause nobody cares. It's not like it's securing your place in line for the item. Or are you trying to get your post count up one number higher so you look like you know more about firearms to your fellow internet forumers? You just look like a douche bag who typed "pm sent"... that's it.

Sorry... this just popped in my head while I was brushing my teeth and had to post it. I usually don't like anything that humans in general do (I'm kinda grumpy like that Firemoth guy on here), so it's kinda hard for me to narrow down a pet peeve... but the PM SENT stands above the rest in my book.

PM SENT!

I'll do it just in case the PM never makes it. But not always.

This bit me in the ass once, I found a rifle I wanted on page 4or5 sent a PM with a question and posted PM sent. Well this brought this once dead ad back to life and someone snatched it up from under me.[Beer] Since then if I really want it I won't post PM sent.

When we're in my truck and a passenger says they're cold and asks me to close a window instead of just putting on their coat/hoodie/what have you. I usually tell them Nope.
Now if they're wearing their coat and they're still cold or they don't have one that's different.
Actually this applies to anything... if you're at my house and I've given you permission to raid my kitchen, don't tell me you're hungry. Don't complain about shit if there's something you can do about it yourself. Don't make it my problem.
Both of those happened tonight.

My Money would say it was a woman...

Catching up on some forum reading...

I dislike:

People who seem to lack the understanding of a "zipper" concept in traffic. And those who think Yield means the guy already on the highway always has the duty to accommodate merging traffic. I actually had some lady trying to road rage me because I let 5 people on and not her... Yes, I'm nice but not all day long.

Lack of common courtesy. Even a small nod is enough to convey respect.

People who eat and talk while on the phone or voice chat. I do not want to hear you eat in surround sound.

[M2]

People going 35 trying to merge onto the hiway.

Dirty dishes in the sink.

People who think their problems are someone elses fault.

Dorks who think that dropping F-bombs online will make themselves look cool.

People who miss what someone is talking about to ask about a single word just because they can.

sorry about that

I hate pet peeves! My ex girlfriend had many of them......thats why she is an ex.......and no they werent all about me! Well, maybe most of them. Nevermind! [BooHoo]

Please don't make me give you change for a 5 dollar bill, then tell me that you're sorry that you can't tip me. It's kind of rude.

I don't mind being stiffed (okay I do), but if you're going to do it, be a man about it and write the total on the credit card slip. I do rather enjoy telling people that they have fill out the slip completely and making them write all those zeros right in front of me though. Man up!
