Eat the stickers? Oh hell no!

I get what you say about the Halloween candy. I am not a big candy fan but when I have the grandkids with me I need to drag them away. I take them to the fresh fruit section and tell them they can peel off the little stickers! I look at it as payback for the candy on display 

I saw a picture of fruit online...where the person eating the fruit, ate the fruit all around the sticky, and left it there...lol

See, DON'T EAT THE STICKER!!

FINE. I'll throw away this perfectly delicious bowl of stickers.

A small annoyance of mine would have to be finding an item from somewhere else in a store on a shelf in the wrong section of the store because some exhausted parent realized one of their children picked something up a few aisles back and dropped this desired object in the cart without the parent seeing it, but when that same parent does find it, they just shove it all hodge podge on whatever shelf they are near. It floors me that people complain about grocery prices but then they don't consider that when they do that "item dropping" business, they are in fact costing every shopper extra money at the register. Why? Because the employer has to pay someone to walk around the store, picking all those items up and bringing them back to their proper place. That store owner has no intentions of taking that wasted cost on himself, you can bet he ups his prices across the board because of that one cost, and legally, he has every right to do it.

Here's mine:  Gum popping.  I can't stand it.  Can people just pop their gum in the privacy of their car and not in my ear?  Ever go to a movie or the theater and sit next to someone popping their gum? I have gotten in near fights because I asked them to stop popping their gum!
Or how about kicking the back of your chair in a movie? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

 YES YES YES.  I hate that.  I sometimes work with a woman that does that and I just want to grab pliers and pull out the gum and stuff it in her hair.
 

The stickers on our fruit are plastic not paper so I certainly would not eat them.  I do take the time to peel them off  because although it is annoying to peel them off you have to keep in mind that the stickers are stuck on the skin and if you wash the fruit you are not washing under the sticker.  So if your kid does bite in and eat the sticker they are eating an unwashed part.  And believe me you don't want that.  My husband tested the unwashed-under- the- sticker part of an apple in his lab.  Yucky.

Little annoyance - People who leave their bank slips at the ATM - usually tossed onto the floor.

Big annoyance - People who spit onto the sidewalk.

Good point on the stickers, I did not think of that. From now on I will be taking the stickers off before washing the fruit!

The ATM slips are annoying but the spitting on the sidewalk is just gross!!! 

What is so nasty in their mouth that they don't want it in there anymore and what makes them think that we want it on our shoes? Eeeeeeewwwwwwww.
