Pet Peeves!!! (salvation, beliefs, Christ, islam)

What are things you can't stand? It could be something, something somebody does, whatever! What gets you worked up, what makes you angry, what sends shivers down your spine, what can't you stand, etc......?????????

Lack of consistency (e.g. in logical progression of an argument). This annoys me more than people having an opinion I detest, i.e. I CAN'T STAND IT when somebody appears to hold my opinion on something, but hasn't thought it out well enough to argue. I'd much rather have a debate with an intelligent enemy. However, I rarely find them.


(well you did ask mate )

People who say they believe salvation is a free gift by believing in Christ but who instead of accepting His imputed righteousness in place of their own, go about to add to or earn the 'rest' (?) of their salvation by thier own 'self-righteousness', making them self-righteous, jugemental hypocrites, imo.

[Nehustan]

oooooohhhhhhhh....hehehe...nice reply. I can be self-righteous (see above ), maybe I shouldn't have reverted to Islam

[Feathers in Hair]

I'm usually easy-going, but I have trouble with repeated rudeness. If someone is just having a bad day, then I'm okay with that, but if it seems that incivility is just part of their genetic makeup, I don't really care for it. In a debate, I'd rather disagree with someone who's polite than agree with someone who's unkind.

[joeboonda]

Lol, Nehustan, didn't mean that to anyone in particular, I just don't like being judged, and man, I can feel those eyes burning into my back, ya know? Yeah, Feather, you are very nice, and I feel the same way, I like nice people I don't agree with better than someone who may take my side but is mean or rude in their responses. I believe in absolute truth which can put me in opposition to some just by the nature of my beliefs, but one of my biggest beliefs is that we should love one another even if we believe differently or perhaps are on opposites sides of a battlefield of sorts. (not us, I mean, just ppl in general, ya know)

[Nehustan]

...another nice reply. I can be rude, uncivil and impolite (and actually despite my better nature get a sadistic kick from it) but usually in retaliation. I'd better watch my p's and q's around you Feathers.

I'm really, really, disproportionately annoyed when people leave their turn indicators on when they're not turning. Drives me nuts.

And the arguement that "the innocent have nothing to fear" also bothers me (although in this case I feel it's reasonable--I like the Fourth Amendment, after all).

And people who tell me what I'm thinking or feeling (when it's not the case). That bothers me a lot. Fortunately, I don't get much of that any more.

Come on Comet...you're being too quiet up there at the start at the OP...what get's up your nose....other than your finger when you think no one is looking?

[Comet]

In no order whatsoever:

1. People who scrape their silverware together or against their teeth!!!!! *shivers with goosebumps just thinking about it* (you should be forced to have plastic forks and spoons!!)

2. Knots!!!! (some form by magic I think! - screw the untie, just cut them all out!!)

3. Toast!!!! (seriously people, why re-cook bread? It is already cooked!!! If you want it hard, leave it out to become stale!!)

4. Maple syrup!!!! (is there any worse smell in the world???? and where ever it may land will be sticky till the end of time!!!!!!)

5. Pigtails!!!!! (sorry zombieharlot......... seriously, what is going on with pigtails????)
