Stupid Pet Peeves

When the dollar menu might as well be called the $1.69 menu and what was once a solid $4.28 order is now like $7.25.
 
Meatball subs.

I love them but they are too messy, the meatballs always try fall out of the bread, there are too many meatball-less bites (bread and sauce only), and often the meatballs are so big that it's hard to even open my mouth wide enough to get a good bite.

I think someone should make a meatball sub with lots of little meatballs (think whopper, like the candy, size) in it rather than just a few huge meatballs. I bet it would be really good....... Sigh. A guy can only dream
Meatballs. Nasty.
 
Jimmy John's

I love the place, but what I'm about to describe is no accident. It's no fluke. This is not one guy just not doing it right.

Jimmy John's will not put extra hot peppers on you sandwich. I have been to about 6 different locations. I have been to a couple of the locations many times.

If I ask for hot peppers they give me about 4-5 pickled hot pepper rings. If I ask for extra hot peppers they give me about 4-5 pickled hot pepper rings. First off, that's not even a regular amount. That's "light." So when I've asked for extra I still get not even enough to get some every bite. Like zero hot peppers in a few bites in a row. Obviously I want some hot pepper every bite, I asked for EXTRA hot peppers! Thanks for giving me 4-5 hot pepper rings.

So I asked for double extra hot peppers. I get 4-5 hot peppers.

I make an online order. I specify xtra hot peppers and in the "who's this order for" I put "guy who likes lots of hot peppers," and it's funny watching them glance at that as they hand me the sandwich...which we both know has 4-5 hot peppers on it.

So I got extra clever and I ordered my sandwich with extra hot peppers, and I asked if I could also get a side of hot peppers. They wrapped some hot peppers up like they do the sandwiches and pickles. They put ZERO hot peppers on my sandwich. But, success, they gave me 13 hot peppers rings and I put them on my sandwich in a way that guaranteed I would get a significant amount of hot pepper on every bite.

How about an unpeeve?

Cut the meatballs in half. They don't squirt out when they aren't round.
 
Tile flooring throughout a home. Definitely a stupid pet peeve but I hate tile flooring in both the living room, bedroom and dining room. It's so cheesy looking and an obvious economic decision for cheaper built homes. I even hate it in the kitchen but I guess it sort of makes sense there.

And don't get me started on pergo flooring. Oof.
