Stupid things that instantly piss you off

When I teach Spinning, the biggest hot button I have is people running their mouths and making my class a personal chit chat party.

Some teachers at my gym do run their classes that way. I love to chat to people before, and get to know them. HOWEVER... once I start class, unless it's about music or the ride itself... it's time to zip it.

I also hate this even as a student rider. Sometimes it has taken everything I have to not yell out...

"HEY! NEWSFLASH... THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU! SO, STFU!".

Gheez... just typing that sentance makes me almost foam at the mouth lol.

As a spin class "regular"...I also do not like incessant chit-chatting during a class. It's distracting, disruptive, and disrespectful. So I'm with ya, on that one sister!

A few...

People who haven't figured out what thier indicators are for...

Small children that wander around & make noise at restaurants (or other public places). Keep your kids on a leash or something . The rest of us are not YOUR BABYSITTERS!!!! You'll get a nasty evil eye and very little understanding from me

I have a fairly simple last name unlike my maiden name so I am really annoyed when people mispronounce it. Seriously they add letters or give it an almost ethnic sound. It is not much harder than Smith so it really annoys me!

I also get annoyed when people call my Mrs. but have no way of knowing I am married. And if you can tell I am married, I hate being called Miss.

And my biggest pet peeve? When someone calls me "Miss Amanda". Unless you are my 92 year old Mammaw don't even think about it!! My old boss did it and it felt so patronizing. I wanted to throw something at him or scream every time he did it.

I am in the south! I think it was the way he said it in a sing song manner. UGH!

I don't mind "Miss Catherine" by children - but then again, I hail from the South and in my family this is reserved for single women "above a certain age" - which I am I do prefer that to "Ms Last Name" outside of a professional setting as this makes me feel older for some reason....in my professional environment everyone pretty much uses first names unless we are talking to the media, etc.

What I really hate is to be called "babe", "honey", "sweetie", or whatever by store clerks of either gender, or just strangers in general. Endearments are for partners/significant others/spouses. I know that a lot of people do this and mean nothing by it, and that is fine, but I find it irritating.

+1, Catrin. Being called "Miss" for myself, I view as very tame. The other stuff, I just dislike from either male or female unless it is my partner.

But he doesn't even call me any of the above which when I hear other people call me any of those 3 terms, it's jarring for me to hear it.

I hate rude people! The ones that can't wait patiently in a line because "I'm in a hurry" and when they get to the register have to go get something they forgot. Go ahead rude person, just make everybody wait, it's your world I'm just livin in it! The good thing is that being nice to somebody in this town, goes a long way. Sad but true. Most places I frequently shop at know me and just a little "hi how are you?" goes really far. SAD...
