What BUGS You & Doesn't Bother Anybody Else?

I need symmetry. I cannot stand things that are not symmetrical. I would never buy a house with uneven windows. I counted the holes in my crocs. Everything needs to have balance. Something throws me off if the eye doesnt see the symmetry and I go nuts. Even my jewelry needs symmetry!

Danny, I see a lot of decals here L.A. freeways w/ name- x/x/x-x/x/x, in memoriam. There are more in the South L.A. area. I tend to avoid those drivers because if you look at the dates, the kids were usually 14-20 when they passed, which means it was probably gang related, given the high gang activity in that area.

Forte Kitty, interesting. I've only been to LA three times to visit my aunt and didn't stay more than a few days to a week each time and that was ten years ago, so I didn't know that.

I moved here ten years ago and I'd never seen them before then.

I personally think it would be kind of sad to remind myself of something like on my car everyday, and yes now that you mention it, a lot of these are memorials to people who died young (although not because of gang violence, because we don't have gang violence on the neighbor islands).

People who have money but can not spell correctly.
And people who have kids but can not afford them.

The X people insist on using in Christmas. I loathe it.

I'm the same way! I love going for drives to look at houses and it bugs me when they're not symmetrical. I always wonder what the builder was thinking.

I HATE that I pass people on the sidewalk, and I say "Good morning" and they say nothing.

Seriously, would it kill people to be polite? It takes 2 seconds.

I also hate it when people burp and do not excuse themselves. Or they burp on purpose to be gross. I hate this intensely.

More a pet peeve, but I hate it when girls get overly posey for pictures. When you see a series of pictures, such as family portraits, where everybody should be standing there smiling, but there is one girl who's sticking out her boobs and giving the camera a smoldering pouty face. Absolutely hate it.

I can see maybe doing it if they're joking around and out for a night of clubbing, but not in every picture they have. To me, it just screams insincere and fake.

I'm talking about boobs out, smoldering look, while holding up a pair of socks they just got for Christmas.
