Its time for a rant thread! ;D

My latest peve is mens robes!
Every robe I've ever owned, had sleeves that an elephant could fit a leg into, and have room to spare.

I swear, I am so tired of reaching over the stove to tend to breakfast, only to have it wind up on the floor, because the sleeve decided it wanted to grab the handle and throw it on the floor, or when I reach over to turn on the water, I find gallons of water filling the sleeve before I can retract my arm.

I won't get into how many times I have had it clear the counter, just because I reached to the back for something while making a sandwhich, only to wonder what the dogs found suddenly interesting on the floor, and then find my sandwich missing.

Stupid Robes!!!
I think some feminaza designed it. ;D

So do you want me to make them shorter????  :-*   Or just put elastic around the wrist... 8)

Unruly children and crying babies in restaurants.  I am talking nicer eating places where you go expecting a quiet or maybe romantic evening with your loved one...only to find a 3 year old running around your table because they are bored....  Get a sitter or stay home.

Take them in three feet on each side.

I've walked out of places that allow that kind of behavior.
Its how business learns the hard way.
I let them know why I was leaving and they can figure out what to do with my dinner, that I refused to pay for.

What bugs me?  Men who wear robes.  Seriously.  That's so "Hugh Hefner"!  Real men pull on a pair of sweatpants and t-shirt.  Robes?  For fops and dandy's and wannabe players!  :)) :))

I don't know if ST does adjustments on her clothes or yours.

Be there are some places around that can do that adjustment for you on the sleeves of your robe.  Most dry cleaners know of a place that will do it for you for a price.  :o    ;D   

I am a person thats longer from  the waistline up then from the waistline down.  So I always need my jeans adjusted.  Alway have and alway will.

Along with Unruly kids cell phones are right up there at the top.  If I would like a phone ringing in my ear and someone talking on the phone, I would stay home and eat.  >:(   At home I can shut of phone off.  :D

Say what you want, I got ST to laugh and that right there is enough for me! :D

What really bugs me, though, is people who don't know how to scan who try to use the self-scan stations at the grocery store.  Seriously - if you don't know how it works, then use a checker - get out of the way for those of us who can go faster than the checker.

My number one is probably loud children at restaurants...

One that bugs the crap out of me, is perfumed products, if I want to smell like a freakin candy factory, that should be my option.
From soaps and deodorant to TP, just give me bland, the bees and other bugs in the forest find me attractive as it is, I don't need to send for them. ;D

Like laundry detergent, I walk down the isle, and before I can leave, I've got a headache and sneezing my brains out, some scents or the chemical they use to make the scent, just sets me off.
All Avon products do that to me, but it isn't the scent, don't know what it is, but it gets just the same.
