OT: pet peeves...
ok all what are your biggest pet peeves caused by your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend(for the females that post here)???
the two that drive me craziest are:
1. my wife is messy person and one of the things that i have to do since i'm unemployed is keep the house clean... as soon as she walks in the door the whole house is messy again... and then she wonders why we argue when i tell her that i'm not going to clean up after her.
2. my wife loves to call me to talk about nothing... it drives me crazy... i live by the whole "please have a reason when calling, or don't call at all"...

I hate it when she makes out with hot chicks at the bar.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:22 PM ^
I got confused by the original post. After item #1, I thought maybe the poster was the wife.
January 22nd, 2010 at 1:58 PM ^
Are your wife and my girlfriend the same person?
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:05 PM ^
you're young.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:12 PM ^
Because I'm not married? Or because I use acronyms like "WTF"?
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:18 PM ^
Just guessing, but probably because you think the above characteristics are in any way "distinctive."
January 22nd, 2010 at 6:35 PM ^
Let's keep the mothers out of this!
January 22nd, 2010 at 1:59 PM ^
1) Watching the University of Michigan lose in any sporting event. I firmly believe that we should not ever lose.
2) Any idiot wearing OSU gear.
3) Opening up my refrigerator and not finding a bottle of Franks Red Hot.
4) People who refuse to do anything to better their lives.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:02 PM ^
causes those things?? Get rid of her now!!
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:06 PM ^
Holy shit I guess I should pay more attention to the OP. Today is officially my Mgofail day. I feel like a fucking idiot now.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:11 PM ^
I didn't down vote you. I thought it was pretty funny......
In fact, I'll go back and +1 it for providing me an opportunity to be an asshole.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:01 PM ^
I hate when one of my housemates repeats all the funny lines in TV shows/movies right after they happen. He does it under his breath as if he wants to make sure everyone heard it, or it just was so funny to him that he thought it should be said again. I almost have to leave the room every time he sits down to watch something.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:14 PM ^
I probably annoy the hell out of people when I do it too, but I can't help it. Hell, what's worse is that if I know a movie well, I'll finish the line before it even happens in the movie. The first step towards recovery is admitting you have a problem, and I have a problem with this.
BUT, I think there is something even more annoying than this, and that is people who constantly ask questions about what's going on in the movie, instead of actually watching and paying attention. Drives me fucking insane, but I guess that's just what I get.
January 22nd, 2010 at 3:45 PM ^
I have a roommate who will attempt to ask me questions about a show I'm watching;
"Oh hey, Scrubs is still on the air? I didn't know that, is everything different?" - In order, Yes, I hate you, and I only watch because I suspect that one girl is the hot Aussie from the first Transformers
"What are you watching on the DVR? House? Do you like it? What episode? Is it on again? I have a friend who refuses to watch anymore, he was just like 'no more'" - House, yes, House, Obviously I like it because I DVR'd it and am watching it, The new one, yes, GOOD FOR HIM NOW LEAVE ME ALONE.
I have a lot of built up anger about this.
January 22nd, 2010 at 4:59 PM ^
Deep breaths... deeeeep breaths.
January 24th, 2010 at 4:27 PM ^
I knew a kid who would constantly ask questions during movies and would bust his laptop out and look up the movie on wikipedia while we were watching it. Obviously we are not friends.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:32 PM ^
I hate when people chew their food/gum like god damn cows. It pisses me off to no end. I mean, seriously, how hard is it to close your damn mouth?
EDIT: Shit, this thread just went over my head.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:59 PM ^
I'm with you on that one. I think it is a cultural thing, but if you're ever on north campus... well draw your own conclusions there. It's like nails on a chalkboard.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:03 PM ^
I need to read more closely...sorry.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:06 PM ^
my biggest pet peeve is that women do not find me irresistible. Clearly, this is a flaw in all the women I've met. Right? Right.
January 22nd, 2010 at 3:38 PM ^
After review, I felt my entry was pretty ridiculous and pointless. Therefore, I shredded it.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:07 PM ^
BECAUSE THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AT MICHIGAN!
I see this stuff and I think, dude, calm down. I get your point, you're angry...no need for shouting.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:07 PM ^
people chose to hijack this entry to make it about pet peeves in general.
To stay on topic, my wife is an elementary schools teacher. She talks loud and she'll often talk to me like I'm 10 years old (on second thought, that could be because she knows me.)
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:08 PM ^
All of Brian's list from 2005 still hold true.
January 22nd, 2010 at 3:32 PM ^
stud.
January 22nd, 2010 at 5:15 PM ^
CHEETER!!1!
January 22nd, 2010 at 6:40 PM ^
I'm pretty peeved my wife is not her:
January 23rd, 2010 at 3:53 PM ^
Then your wife could rate a better husband...
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:08 PM ^
Slow people in the left lane. MOVE OVER!
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:27 PM ^
And people who love to tailgate for no reason
January 22nd, 2010 at 3:44 PM ^
I can guarantee you I'm tailgating for a reason.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:18 PM ^
My wife thinks it's acceptable for people to get married during the football season.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
If I ever get married during football season, the ol' lady better be prepared to honeymoon in the Big House.
January 22nd, 2010 at 3:06 PM ^
We did not get married during the season, but she thinks it's okay for others to do so and that we should actually attend their nuptials without ear buds and portable TVs.
January 22nd, 2010 at 4:42 PM ^
I agree. I was, in fact, married during the football season. I made sure we did it Delaware State week though, and we followed the game closely via cell-phone before the ceremony. I had a run of 3 or 4 years where I had to go to a wedding on ND week. I did not like it.
January 23rd, 2010 at 3:55 PM ^
Get a divorce.
(ah, don't feel bad...I got married before the Rich Rod era started...officially proposed in the team hotel in Orlando..)
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:21 PM ^
My wife and I had to attend 6 weddings on football saturdays this fall. I watched Michigan/ND on ESPN Gametracker on a Blackberry. Same with Michigan/MSU.
Inconsiderate pains in the ass...
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
I coach high school football and my wife thinks is incredulous that I would skip her cousin's wedding for a game.
January 22nd, 2010 at 5:02 PM ^
My personal goal in life is to be married on the 50 yard line of Michigan Stadium during halftime in the tOSU game. The band can play Here Comes the Bride, she comes out, quick sermon, we kiss, the student section cheers, the Band plays "Hail to the Victors" and we run off the field to it.
Long story short, I'm never getting married with that attitude.
Also if anyone objects the student section can chant "asshole" or "bullshit". I see no downside to this plan.
January 23rd, 2010 at 3:57 PM ^
I tried... Heck, I just thought proposing there would be fun...but harder to convince someone else of that...
January 24th, 2010 at 3:11 PM ^
But when I got married, on a Michigan-ND weekend no less (we werent paying for the wedding and her family decided that was the week..assholes), my wife ordered without my knowledge 2 60in flat screens to watch the game on. Ceremony, pics, toast, game time with an open bar and my best friends. Dont settle.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
I too am in the unemployed category and going to grad school. My fiancee, a CPA who is working like crazy during busy season, thus thinks it is my responsibility to cook, clean, launder, and serve.
Yesterday I did all the laundry, dishes, dry cleaning, and grocery shopping and still received no credit. I may be the best housewife ever and am yet so unappreciated.
...and she is anOSU fan. Dammit.
January 22nd, 2010 at 6:22 PM ^
I hope she has large tracts of land.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
her iron plugged in after she's done. Maybe i'm paranoid, but lets not burn down our house - k?
She wears pajamas to bed instead of being naked - like I want her to be.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:38 PM ^
the part about the iron, unfortunately--not the coming to bed naked part.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:27 PM ^
People who get married on Saturdays in the fall DO NOT want you as their friends. They're just being passive aggressive about it.
I got married on April 29...after everyone's spring game. The only thing anyone had to miss was some early season baseball. Plus, it's an easy date for me to remember as the Grateful Dead played their final show at the Fillmore East in 1971 on that date.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:29 PM ^
General complacency and faux self-deprecation in order to attain the appearance of humbleness rather than actually being truly humble are my two biggest pet peeves in anyone, male or female.
January 22nd, 2010 at 2:34 PM ^
"faux self-deprecation in order to attain the appearance of humbleness rather than actually being truly humble"
January 23rd, 2010 at 3:00 PM ^
I do both of these.
January 23rd, 2010 at 3:00 PM ^
I do both of these.
