New Pet Peeves

Here are a few of my new pet peeves:
1. When you buy a new clothes' dryer, you have to PURCHASE the "right" cord as well
2. When someone besides you picks the length for the cord, it will inevitably be too short
3. Laying on the ground, screwing (or unscrewing) in the new cord, is not one of the "acceptable positions" when you have bi-focal lenses--> you might as well be doing it by feel
4. Wondering how you could misplace a screw right in front of your eyes (see # 3 above, apparently) AND how that screw could be different from the other 20 screws on the dryer
5. When you can immediately find several of the "right" screwdrivers, you should consequently realize that you really won't need them--> you will, however, need another tool that has conveniently disappeared
6. People who swerve into your lane because they are "texting" while driving
7. People who turn left (suddenly) from the center lane
8. People who, though they are in the left turn lane by the library, really want to take the next right, AND expect you to get out of their way when they make a mad dash for it

Hope you had a good morning too!
