Pet Peeves #006 – The Automobile
I spend two hours a day in my car, a large 2001 Chrysler LHS. I grew up in a family that always had large cars – a 1960 Olds 98, and at least three models of LTD Station Wagon (woodies) – in fact, my mom still owns one. I have come to require enough space to be comfortable, and today’s compact, even mid-sized cars, seem to be built for small Japanese women.
But autos have a world of things that ought to be improved upon, or problems that need to be solved. Thankfully, most of the premium car manufacturers like BMW and Lexus have been addressing these problems, but they are woefully slow. Here’s what I would like to see changed about cars.
Pet Peeves #005 – In church
Might as well list these – things that bug me in church. You secularist anti-religionists probably have your own list of these, but I’m sure they won’t be the same ;)
Pet Peeves #004 – At the gas station
Closely related to the last post of peeves on the road is my list of peeves at the gas station.
Pet Peeves #003 – On the road
Probably nowhere else do we get more annoyed than when driving. Here’s my most treasured peeves.
Pet Peeves #002 – At the restaurant
What really annoys you when you are out to eat? Probably not the same things as me. Sure, there are people on their cell phones, or people with kids, but that’s just normal stuff, as far as I’m concerned. Buy a few things get to me. And by the way, people who tell gross stories while we are eating, that doesn’t bother me a bit – I’m that guy. Did I ever tell you about my experience with colonics?
Pet Peeves #001 – In the men’s room
We all have things that other people do that bother us, even though we know they should not. Here’s my list of pet peeves in public rest rooms.
