ILLEGAL immigrants
Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hardworking and honest (except for when I broke into your house). According to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he too is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part). If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there. It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm hardworking and honest, um, except for well, you know. And what a deal it is for me! I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being an anti-housebreaker. Oh yeah, and I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me. Sound a little bit off the mark??

My biggest "pet Peeve", as in the biggest thing that *annoys* me (some folks need to learn better English, don't they?)?
It's a tie now.....
--Here on Answers, it would have to be the folks from India and Pakistan who come on the UK and US versions of Yahoo Answers and think they know what they are doing while they can neither read nor write comprehensible English (or at least cannot do it without using words as if *every* P-word were "penis", you know?).
Or...
--In general, real life and online, my *original* answer was going to be "Dealing with the religious fundies...the evangelical sorts who want to send you to Hell over *anything and everything*." You know, the ones who think *breathing* is a sin unless you do exactly as they do....
But yeah....there they are, sorry about any confusion.
Thanks for your time. Take care and stay safe. ^_^

People yapping on their cell phones while driving, and not paying attention to what they are doing. Today in a matter of 30 minutes, between Walmart and home, I almost got hit three times with my child in the car, by people on cell phones not watching where they are driving. They act like their vehicle is on auto pilot or something. Just makes me furious.

Disgusting Things! From someone Smoking in the house to Someone Not Washing their hands. That's just a complete turn-off to me.
