I have two, one is people who sit in their cars while their car is running!

People who want to know my name and ask “What WAS your name?” Well back before I was married it was Leslie Woods, now it is Leslie Speed!!

I hate it when you tell someone that you liked a movie or a show, and they say “I heard it was good.” I’M telling you it’s good!!

Even worse is when they say “it’s SUPPOSED to be good”! 😤

Right. “supposed to be”. Bad phrase in general.

Embarrassed to admit that I have several: 1. The phrases “Why don’t you…” and “Why didn’t you….” 2. Water puddles on the kitchen or bathroom counter 3. Seeing someone rearrange a dishwasher I just loaded 3. Freezing cold grocery stores 4. Loud chewing 5. Fluorescent lights. I’ll stop now, lest I sound petty.

Agree with all of them. But even worse for me than chewing is the sound of the scraping of the utensils on a plate 🙉 Fluorescent light instant headache. 🤦🏻‍♀️
