CHANCEY: Oh, my Goodness! Let’s recapture respect for God
The sign read, “Warning! Pet Peeves Ahead!” It wasn’t posted on a roadside, like an alert letting you know “bridge out ahead” or “road closed.” It appeared online. However, the sign reminded me most everyone has those little irritating annoyances other people commit that get under one’s skin, don’t we? We try to ignore them, but they get to us anyway. Like interrupters who won’t let you finish your sentence. Or loud public phone conversations. Or having a conversation in which the other person’s phone dings and they stop and read the new text word for word, suddenly tuning you out. Or people who treat yield signs like stop signs. Or people who roll through “stop” signs that must not apply to them. Or people throwing trash out their car windows.
