Kimmi Zehetbauer Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Peeve 098: Having a housekeeper cleaning your desk and wiping the keyboard and such and making your PC do weird things and stuff. One time I was logged into SL and saw that my toon was warped somewhere in the Blake Sea. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafadilia Wayfarer Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) I don't usually have peeves, but I officially have one. This morning I opened up the living room curtains to look onto the back garden while I cleaned. Our back garden is actually a large community garden that is a large courtyard surrounded by brick houses. We have our own small section that belongs to us and people aren't to access uninvited just to set up the scene. So I was cleaning the living room and hubby had come in from taking out recycling. We were talking and holding hands. I saw movement from my side gaze along the windows and glanced up to see our neighbor knocking on our glass patio door. My husband had heard and opened up one of the windows to see what she needed. Apparently she was offended at our displays of affection (holding hands) with the curtains open. Really? 🤔 Hubby told her perhaps if she stopped looking ino neighbor's windows she wouldn't see anything to offend her before shutting the window. This creeped me out because she came into our small back garden and has done this several times in the past. She did this once even before we moved in when we were working on the house getting it ready. This really has turned into a peeve.

Me and my man gotten that in RL especially since we're an interracial married couple. Then again we grew in a time when it wasn't tolerated. Hopefully the window peeper is not in SL! 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(She was the nosy neighbor on the original "Bewitched" TV series, always peeking at the neighbors through her curtains.) Your neighbor certainly fits that description! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scylla Rhiadra Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 On day 4 of a nasty, vicious flu bug that first downed my RL SO, and has made me absolutely miserable. I spent almost all of yesterday sleeping -- or trying to sleep. I'm a little better today, but having some problems with breathlessness, and a lot of coughing. At least it's not Covid, so I should make a full and relatively uncomplicated recovery. But in the meantime, I'm just plain not functioning. And God I'm bored of it. 1 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awww /me hands Scylla some tissues and hot tea. You haven't missed anything important here. We're all still peeving, sharing pictures, comparing our ages, complaining about no-mod clothing, feeling lonely, or looking for role-play. You're all caught up now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This speaks volumes about Ms. Looney Tunes' lack of love and joy in her life. I'm sorry you had to go through that. The trespassing and voyeurism can't be legal. At minimum, she should be slapped with trespassing charges. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another possibility, is Ms. LT got all tingly and excited seeing actual human connection, and oh my, Ms. LT just hates feeling tingly and excited. It's not proper for one to feel that way, no, indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Getting closer and closer on a project, until now I have to "put up or shut up". Here, "put up" means, "do more work to get everything integrated and working" instead of just a "Proof of Concept". *whine* 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Mistwalker Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Peeve: Why do people/companies have to ruin perfectly good food with cooked carrots? 🤢 I'll eat raw carrots all day long, but I will not touch mushy cooked carrots.

EW! Yes, I know. They're cheap filler. 🤬 Shredded carrots (and parsnip, and swedes) are a great way to bulk up a ragu, adding a touch of sweetness and depth of flavour without messing up the texture. An overnight-cooked ragu alla bolognese (just make it in the evening and leave it on the stove on very low) + a home made Mornay sauce (with plenty of white pepper and nutmeg, and of course a well-aged cheese) = the best lasagne. Serve with a simple salad with cucumbers and cherry tomatoes and put your best balsamic vinegar on the table (if it ain't old enough to order its own drink, it ain't old enough to ride with lasagne). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know where you live, but if it is in the US, I would have told her that you were considering reporting her to the police as a peeping tom. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
