Pet Peeves

Haven't been blogging much because there isn't anything interesting that I had want to share. December is supposed to be a happy, merry, jolly month. However, I still got caught up in angst somehow. I always try to chill as much, but I would end up wanting to give the //offender a piece of my mind. Thought of compiling some of my personal pet peeves.
01. Inefficient & Ineffective Humans I just dislike working with inefficient and ineffective humans in short. Really. Just living on Earth for merely 20 years and I felt like I have met a lifetime worth of inefficient and ineffective people. These people can also be referred as sloths. They would always give excuses like "life's too short to blahblahblah...". Seriously doubting their chain of logic - say life's short and they take their own sweet time, and worse still, don't get things done the right way, and even worse, wait for people to clean up their mess. 

My previous post about my camera purchase had some hiccups... so I had to repurchase and here I am, a lone ranger urging 3 Parties to do their job properly: TAQBIN the main troublemaker, who lost my parcel within their premises (total flop of their Japanese Head Company can). Next, the Seller to send new order using another courier/mailing company, just no TaqBin and to get the compensation from TaqBin to refund me. Lastly, Qoo10SG Customer Service team to assist in ensuring the Seller does what is instructed.

02. Inconsiderate Smokers Just imagine that you just bathed, got ready to head out and at the bus stop, inconsiderate smokers just blow the smoke in your face or smoke in the direction of wind approaching you. I have to admit I swear at them under my breath. Another scenario, got a seat on the bus/train, hoping someone prim and proper would take the empty seat beside you. BAM! A smoker who has just finished his/her nicotine/tar inhaling just had to sit beside you. What's worse if you have a long journey! I would purposely shift slightly away from them and use a tissue/hand to cover my nose very obviously so they can notice that they DO STINK. To all smokers out there, it is already bad that most innocent people around you have to take in your second-hand smoke, as a smoker, it doesn't give you additional rights to taint another non-smoker's fair share of clean, odorless air.
03. The Humans who ask 1234567890 Questions Do I look like Customer Service Officer or the answer sheet to all your questions? Can I please direct these people to Google.com. I think Google would have more time and the right answers to answer you. Just remember someone out there, somewhere had definitely experienced the same thing, if not the same at least similar situations. It's okay if you ask me up to 3 questions within a span of 10-20 minutes (on chat). That's my threshold, that's very low I know. I just tend to become more irritable when people start to question me, so Three It Is. & some people just have to ask dumb questions. In real life, I might just answer much more as long as it's not dumb questions with obvious answers that would make anyone go DUH or roll their eyes. Think before you ask.
04. Religious People who Preach about their Religions Oh, you did not just do that in my face. Especially to me, as a free thinker. Go elsewhere to do your preaching. I have no interest in committing to a religion and the practices that come with it. I have been brought up as a free thinker, and I like it, enjoy being one and will continue to be one. So don't try too hard, else I would bite back. I like the fact that I can believe in myself, trust myself, love myself and do things I like without any restrictions or requirements. In short, I don't give a damn about what religion you have, you can do whatever you like, but not interfere with my life, particularly with my beliefs.
05. Taking/Touching my belongings w/o Permission Call me paranoid, whatever. I just loathe it when people touch my stuff. Maybe because born in the year of Dog, and dogs like to mark their territory. So I guess, I like "marking" my belongings. I may be lazy in my own personal life (except when I am at work/school, I make an effort to be more organised), but I know my mess well, I don't want anyone to shift anything around because you would be just messing with my memory of where I last placed/used my stuff. If you have to borrow something, just ask nicely, most of the time I am okay with it as long as you return the item back to where it was or to me, personally. Itchy fingers go away. After reading this you might think I complain a lot, but every human has his/her own limits. These are my limits.
