    People who pull timelines out of their ass, then get annoyed when you call them out on it.

    For example if you tell me something should be done overnight, and a week later it hasn’t been done. Don’t be shocked when I follow up as to why something isn’t done yet.

    Not even a situation where things come up, it was an entirely predicable timeline they were just full of shit on.
    I dunno man, that would bother me so it would be an actual peeve.

    My wife says “I think” a lot. Should be no biggie. I hear it about 45 times a day. I think I am going to cut my hair. I think I will make chicken for dinner. Sometimes I ask her you think or you know.

    Ahh so silly.

    In my experience women love to think a lot.

    Actually doing things? That they do a lot less often.

    People using the term "I feel" when they should be saying "I think" happens way too often, but that belongs in the actual pet peeve thread.

    "I feel" should be used without solid evidence to back up hypothesis.

    "I think" should be used when there is some evidence to back up theory.

    "I know" should be used when there is solid evidence to back up theory.

    For example:

    *FAAART
    I feel like I just shit my pants.
    *SNIFF
    I think I just shit my pants.
    *CHECKS
    I know I just shit my pants.

    The current owner of one of my past cars (formerly @Buster 's GLA) is attempting to sell it on Kijiji after only owning it for a couple months. Young guy who is admittedly underwater on it already and overextended to make payments. Somehow I still have the second key for it (the dealer I sold it to didn't bother to take it). I reached out to the current owner via his kijiji ad, let him know that I have this key and he's welcome to come pick it up anytime... and he said he's too busy. His stupidity bothers me an unreasonable amount. (although, it's a 22yo that financed a $55k car, presumably at like 10%, so... that checks out).

    I tried lowballing him for it a few weeks ago. He sounds badly underwater.

    Hah, I know - is yours one of the Black fake carbon fiber type ones? The tap feature has stopped working too, as an added bonus. Oh ya, and they screwed up merging my CIBC accounts so now I have to log into 2 separate profiles in order to view/pay my Costco Mastercard bill. They are "working on it", now 2 weeks later....

    Is that even trying to look like carbon fiber? It's pretty bad. Beyond requires #ForgedCarbon.
    The tap on my old one failed right from its start but they fixed that.
    The rest just sounds like CIBC things...

    There's a guy at my work that looks identical to a young Alan Kulwicki and there's no one I can point it out to because no one will know who that is. So I have to just live with that every day.

    I realized earlier this year, that we use the spelling "cheque" because of the commie frenchies in quebec that steal our money. For this reason, I am moving over to use the spelling "check". America! Fuck ya!

    Same goes for "centre". Moving to use "center". Because fuck. the. french.
