      My pet peeve: Cookie cutter logs.

      In other words, the typical same phrase cut and pasted in each log.

      I’m sure that’s been brought up before.

      Outside of caching, my pet peeve are jerks who talk on the cell phone while driving. I’ve had some near misses because they didn’t see me.

        Maybe they saw, but just wanted you out of their way. 😆

            People who call you up but then leave their TV, radio, whatever on loud enough so that you hear that more than you hear what the person is saying–and they initiated the call!

              Since were on the subject of phones…

              People who call your home phone, then your cell phone, then your other cell phone trying to get a hold of you to tell you something frivolous that could have waited.. Apparently some people believe it’s not physically possible to ignore a phone call. Some days I hate technology and what it has done to some of us.

                I’m glad I don’t have a cell phone.

                  I’ll check the General page to let Cheeto know that I don’t have a cell phone.

                    Has anybody seen Cheeto around? I really need to tell him that I don’t have a cell phone.

                      I think you read my pet peeve incorrectly…

                      I am referring to someone else calling every phone in MY house to try to tell my wife something frivolous.

                      Me, I hate phones altogether. My wife yells at me all the time for not answering the phone. I say that’s what caller ID and the answering machine are for. It’s never for me anyway…

                            am extremely peeved when a cacher types only “tftc” in their log.

                              This used to bother me but it’s become abundantly clear based on some recent logs that some people have not yet evolved opposable thumbs, which makes it very difficult to operate a keyboard, so this is actually preferable to an incoherent string of unpunctuated babble.

                                I couldn’t agree more with you gotta run. I would much rather see a log that says tftc or even the word “easy” or “easy find” rather than anything else these days.
