Pet Peeves

Pet peeves – we all have them!  This past week while talking to various friends and family, I heard everything from ‘I just hate people, so everything is a pet peeve’ to men who pick their noses while stopped at a red light.   I spent hours on Pinterest laughing at so many, but I went with the PG ones I think most of us can relate to.  So, without further ado … +16
