I think it’s cute and I love it. Me and my girls talk like this and don’t have any issues with it.


Since no doubt your "girls" are just your little clique of preschool mommies and not your daughters, this is unsurprising.


Wow. You must be lonely and bitter and not have a group of girls to call as your friends.

Report him to the gym or find another one.
This is why I work out at home!!


Just sleep with him - that’s what he really wants

I don't mind certain curse words among adults. But I hate hearing children use bad words. I heard my son say "oh frick this!" And told him it's inappropriate (yes, he said frick).

My not so petty vent are drivers who don't come to a complete stop at stop signs and don't look for pedestrians crossing at the stop sign. And no, no one owes you a wave for not killing them when they have the right of way and you're supposed to have come to a full stop.

I'm with you.

I'm working at a coffee shop today and noticed my order was ready at the counter. I was seated maybe 6 feet from the counter but there were two women looking at their phones and waiting for their orders, blocking the path. The only other way to get to the counter is to go back out towards the door and skirt around a half wall barrier and approach from the other side. I said "excuse me" in a perfectly polite tone of voice and they moved, but one turned to the other and said loudly "She could have got around" with an eyeroll.

People are rude, entitled, $hitheads and do not deserve this earth.


I’ve been saying that a lot lately..I hate people too. It ta strong word, but it just fits a lot of people’s attitudes now.

Not PP, but I lift heavy shit and I don’t have $40,000 nor the space for all the equipment I need. That said, I have no issues moving douche nozzle’s towel out of the way while he supersets 10 different machines.

I recently had a cashier give me whole lecture how it’s so bad and she has to make sure there is nothing hidden in the cart and how now she needs to take everything out just to make sure. She started lifting each and every item and scanning it, trying to not double scan etc.
I just use the self checkout now. Sorry not sorry if she is replaced by a self checkout!


That's odd. At my Costco they actually prefer it if you leave items in the cart while I prefer to take them out, all but the super bulky items.

Maybe it was one odd cashier but I am not risking it again!

Yes! My neighbor also does this! I swear she stands outside at the crack of dawn on garbage day so the cans are put away immediately. She also recently cut the branches of my trees that grow over our shared walkway before I could get them. I feel judged by it.

I live up n a neighborhood with narrow streets and cars parked on both sides. Sometimes there isn’t enough room for two cars to pass each other, and one has to pull over and wait. My petty complaint is that if I’ve yielded to an oncoming driver by pulling over and coming to a complete stop, I hate it when the other driver then slows down to 5 mph or even worse, comes to a stop themselves. I already got out of your way! Just go, dammit. You make me regret yielding to you.

You. My petty vent is you. You are 30+ years old and you call your friends your girls. Your name is Kaylee, isn't it? ISN'T IT????

DP. Here’s mine: should of instead of should have. Like nails on a chalkboard.

But I don’t even know how people still do this. I had to override my autocorrect to type that.
