What is some of your Pet Peeve's

You can thank the lawyers for that.

I'll thank the litigants. No lawyer has ever talked me into suing anyone.

Tractor Supply has become a clothing store that sells some farm/ranch items.

Lowe's is selling clothes now. And a big display in the main aisle of some manly-man soap.

Did you know that you can now buy nothing? Just heard about it this morning...

Nothing | US

Here at Nothing, we’re building a world where tech is fun again. Remember a time where every new product made you excited? We’re bringing that back.

I've talked to a lot of people that said they don't know nothing about the crime I was investigating. Sounds kind of like a confession.

Maybe not you, but the US system makes it no risk for suits. Companies save money by settling out of court and pass the costs of the suits and the mitigation on to the rest of us, all on the advice of lawyers. The laws themselves are written primarily by lawyers.

DIL = Attorney........ man that is begging for creative license.

Congrats on a new family member.

You turn the crank handle right ( clockwise) , and the blower chute turns left

lol... my Woods 3pt blower was the same. Used to drive me nuts.

I'd actually get used to it after awhile, until I used my walk-behind blower which has proper orientation on the hand crank, and then my coordination would be wrecked again.

How 'bout the fast talk disclaimers at the (usually) end of a radio commercial, and the "potential side effects" on medication ads - that seemingly take up half the commercial?

That's the opposite of a peeve, for me. I'm glad they finally have to name all of the side effects.

Besides, hearing that erectile dysfunction medication may cause "an*l leakage" makes me laugh, every time. After all, if one suffers from an*l leakage, I doubt they're going to get much use out of ED medication!

That was my tell for how bad the vid vax was. The commercials for it never mentioned any potential side affects - even at 78 rpm speed!

How about when people post a topic and don't have subject verb agreement?

Some pet peeves ARE. One pet peeve IS.

Thanks for joining this EdTalk.

That was mentioned and discussed on page one, or shortly thereafter.

300+ pages...I read the title and reply. If we were trying to solve someone's tractor issue, I probably would have read through them first.

Thanks to you, I have to go back and read.
