    My main one is the fact that bullying has taken over our school and none of the adults will do #$%#$% about it! Why? Because phones are more important! So tell me this, is a phone so important that it should interfere with something that can damage someone's mental, physical and emotional state? I don't think so!

    I agree with that! Bullying in schools has gotten out of control.

    I agree bullying is really bad. But I'm not sure this qualifies as a "pet peeve." :) This is serious stuff for kids.

    True enough. It is much worse than a pet peeve. It more like an epidemic, with the things like the role models being people like Brittney, Paris, or Lindsey! What normal kid can live up to that image, and even if they could, what kind of message is that sending?

    All you end up with is a generation of anorexic, bulimic, drug induced, ill-mannered, illiterate, greedy,. children, if there aren't parents that set rules and boundaries, and set moral standards! The kids that want to do well and have parents who try and teach them to be who and what they want to be, are the ones that get ridiculed. So it makes it really tough on kids these days!

    Hahah rubberneckers on the highway that cause horrendous traffic.. even if there is just a car that broke down and a tow truck is helping, people have to slow down to look.. it drives me insane!!

    Sometimes I wonder if we truly are the smartest species on the planet.. it's just beyond stupidity... I'm sooooo frustrated, but I have to admit, writing it on here makes me feel better, thanks guys;)

    Sneeze, tell them you taped their conversations and you want to know the name of all of their parents... tell them you are a cop too... then you can become their pet peeve. Heehee
