What is some of your Pet Peeve's

[Gem99ultra]

Public speakers make me want to vomit. Even on national news, the commentator throws in a 'uhh' or an 'ah' every third word. They're supposed to be professional speakers, but they sound like amatuers. Makes me want to just change channels - which is exactly uhhhh what I do.

My next gripe is those public speakers that read thier statements in 3 word groups. They'll throw out 3 words, pause, and then send 3 more. Do they think we the public can't mentally handle more than 3 words at a time?

sometimes this is just a method of pausing to choose words. Obama was the master of this, he won two elections on mostly being a very good public speaker who chose his words very carefully, but remember his speech pattern…

At least he knew where the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean are.

It would be a shame if this thread got shut down due to political bickering.

I liked your post Mr. Jstpssng, not because I like the lug nuts. I would have given it 25 "Unlikes" in total agreement with you if the option was available!

I recently twisted up one of those lug nut covers on my Jeep...and 2 hours later, finally got the rim off! (And then had to buy a new stud!)

They are a pain for sure. So far I've lucked out as I don't use an impact on my wheel nuts when changing them. They even make 1/2 size sockets now specifically for them it's so bad.
