Here are the things I am sick of:

People who talk about their parochial school as if it's the same thing as a top private school. That's great if parochial school is a good for your family, but don't pretend either the academics or the prestige factor is on par with private schools (or better than public schools).




Have one in "top private school" and one in parochial school. The parochial school has better academics. Go figures.

My peeve. People who comment on issues that they know nothing about.

People who turn every thread on DCUM into a politically commentary.

People who complain that the 1% don't pay their fair share. We do and then some.

*Bad drivers.

*People who take the handicapped stall when others are clean and available and then give you nasty looks when they walk out like you should use a different one not considering someone with a stroller or wheelchair or multiple kids may need it.

*People who walk through doors without letting you go first (not expecting them to help just don't be rude) after you wrangle the door open with a stroller & baby gear. (with the exception of someone who needs the help)

*People constantly complaining how they are busy and its just their priorities are the same as others and acting as if they are more important.

*People who can't get off their cell phones to check out at a store.

*People who don't express an emergency/sick/elderly/disabled who line jump.

*People who give you nasty looks when you bring a young child out to eat even though the child is very well behaved and you wouldn't know they were there in less they saw them and are far more loud and obnoxious than the child. And, on the flip of that, parents who let their kids run around, yell, tantrum and don't take them outside or somewhere not to disturb others until the child is done. Or, notice maybe its time to leave as your child is over tired/hungry and its about them, not you.

*People who use our yard as their playground (whom we don't know or even talk).

*People who leave their dog poop in my trash can even when we don't put it out till late at night. They only take large bags so if we don't catch it, it just sits in there and smells.

Don't get me started...And the ones who bring them into non-pet stores? So disgusting.

you're thin, we get it.


People who think that being thin makes life wonderful and blissful; or that if one is thin one has nothing to complain about or no problems at all, especially with clothing, or who think that any mention of small size clothing is intended as a brag. And I have been fat so believe me I know of what I speak.

People who ask me if I'm done with my Christmas shopping yet.

My 2 and 4 year old boys constantly fighting over toys

Breakfast. Not alot of variety and choices in eating breakfast on a weekday.


I am all for being creative and unconventional when it comes to breakfast...never understood why it was limited to such a small group of foods. Leftover chicken, rice and veggies? Leftover pizza? Bring it.


I'm with you on this one! In my mom's country they routinely eat rice, chicken, left over veggies, etc. for breakfast. Imagine my shock and disgust while visiting my American grandma and being served shredded wheat. Must disgusting cardboard crap ever!

So why aren't they both in the better, cheaper parochial school?

OK, anti-Ivy Leaguer, we get it. Why anyone would care if someone else doesn't pay off their loans is beyond me.
And "think it MAKE them special?" "paid OF their loans?" Really, you're not highly educated? Hard to tell.
