30 Pet Peeves That Instantly Divide A Room | Bored Panda

You know the moment. Someone starts chewing a little too loudly. A phone rings at the worst possible time. A person in front of you does one tiny thing that should not matter, yet suddenly you are clenching your jaw and counting to ten.

That is the weird power of pet peeves. They feel personal and obvious when you are the one experiencing them. The problem is, they are not universal.

Some of these will probably make you nod in agreement, others migh*//*t make you roll your eyes. Either way, not everyone reacts the same, and that’s where the real divide starts.

You spot it a second too late. One step, then the awful realization, and suddenly your whole walk is ruined. That is why people who leave dog poop behind get called out so fast.But it is not always as simple as “lazy owner equals bad person.” A University of Sydney study notes that most dog walkers do pick up after their dogs, while a smaller group admits they are too “proud to pick up,” or decide there are situations where leaving it feels tolerable.The same study also found that some dog walkers “will not pick up even if they are aware of the health and environmental consequences,” which is exactly what makes this one so polarizing.Then there is the excuse almost everyone has used at least once. As one owner wrote on Quora, “To be fair…there have been times when I'm walking my dog, he does his duty, and I find I have no doo bags. There's not much to do except come back later with a bag… sometimes I don't have time to come back or I forget,” a confession that instantly divides people into the unforgiving and the understanding.So what is your stance, is leaving it behind ever acceptable if you genuinely ran out of bags, or is there no excuse, ever?

Part of getting ready for "walkies!" is making sure you have a p**p bag or 2 in your pocket. You pick up after your dog.
