A big full bowl of chocolate kisses

Okay today I introduce a little thing I would like to call "Know your Blogger". This part of the ongoing series is dedicated to my top 5 pet peeves in no particular order. 5) The crunching noise people make when drinking out of a plastic bottle. - Have people never discovered the principle of low pressure? I have a co-worker that does it every time she takes a drink and I just want to stand up and scream "STOP IT, let the air in." 4) "Says" - I'm not an english major (as most of you can tell from reading this) but I also know how terrible it sounds when someone speaks improper. "So I says to her, leave me alone. And so she says to me, I'm not messing around". Damnit people it is said! 3) Over use of windshield wipers - I know quite a few of you are from Minnesota (heck everyone could be, I don't know who reads this anymore) and you know how sloppy the roads get when the plows come around and half melt the ice, creating a wonderful layer of slush. Well when you are traveling behind someone and it throws some at your car you have a tendency to use your windshield wipers a lot. Most people turn them off after it is removed from their viewing area, but then you have those that leave them on. I'm almost crawling out of my skin trying to use mental telepathy to convince the driver to turn them off, ::turn them off now.....okay....next time.....isn't that noise bothering you?:: It isn't until 5 minutes of hearing them scrap (screech, rub, you pick the adjective) against the windshield that they finally realize that they aren't doing any work. UGH. 2) Email Forwards - These are never funny and no one ever wants to read them. I feel it is my role as an internet user to break the chain of forwards that come to me. No one is going to die because they didn't forward the email on, no Microsoft isn't going to give you money because your email address is on a list, and no I don't care about the 25 fun things to do with pencil erasers. This to me is as bad if not worse then spam. At least a spammer doesn't know who I am. 1) Woman who wear tennis shoes with dresses - Seriously, who didn't get the memo that this is a fashion no no? I swear I replied to all when I sent it off. This has never and will never become a fashion trend. I feel that the ladies that do this can't decide if they want to dress casual or dress up. One more thing that tops the cake with this one is ladies who wear black pantyhose, then white tube socks, and then top them off with a pair of sneakers (white of course). Do you honestly think they look in the mirror in the morning and think, "Man I look good today!"? Honorable Mention - People who talk just to hear their voices
