my number one pet peeve of the day is people who hose down sidewalks/driveways instead of sweeping them. i realize it saves time, but it wastes water.
plus, it's really shitty when they hose down bits of pavement (especially steps) that are already slick from wear. i was walking back to my dorm and the maintenance guys had hosed down the entire walkway, which is already worn smooth from thousands of college students treading them daily for decades. and i fell flat on my back. i am a klutz, but that should not f***ing happen. (and no, there were no dry places i could have walked to get in my building.) i couldn't get up for a few seconds and my back still really hurts. this is something that has always bothered me though.
what are some of your pet peeves? (i'm in a whingebag -- as moz might say, as he said of robert smith -- mood today.)
