Aloha!
I stumbled upon your blog – awesome! I love the colors and design.
What’s my greatest pet peeve? The same – people who attack other people comments or posts! Each one of us has our own way of thinking – therefore our own opinion. Also, those blogs that are dark in color and dont use sontrasting colors for their fonts!

I hate it when people leave comments that have absolutely nothing to do with the post at hand.

Sure, I understand there are times when you need to get in touch with somebody and the only way is to leave a comment. That’s probably the exception to the rule.

If peeps are going to leave a comment at least make it relevant to what’s being discussed unless you really feel the need to clarify whatever point you are trying to make.

I too don’t like automatic music players OR pop ups! I tend to leave real quick when I run into those issues.

If your blog is WAY too cluttered I tend to move along, move along, like I say I will.

As for posting a comment from my blog.. sometimes it’s necessary to respond from my own blog because my comments are SO long sometimes that it warrants it.

I think it’s ok to speak up and disagree and don’t mind when peeps do it from their own blog. I just hope that they let me know that they did so I will be able to participate in the discussion.

I hate blogs that have super-dark backgrounds and neon text. They hurt my eyes and when I leave there I see spots! I prefer blogs with easy-on-the-eyes layouts and colors. Lisa's last blog post..Cinnamon Roll Sunday

I agree with the "when I comment on someone's blog and they don't visit mine" pet peeves. Also, blogger sometimes is so quirky (or maybe it's me!). I space things how I like them to look, but when I hit publish is one big run-on paragraph. That's hard on the eyes. Heather's last blog post..Fight the Frump Great Links Edition

My biggest pet peeve are lurkers! I see how many people are reading my feed, yet not a lot of comments.

Since my sound is off on my computer most of the time, the other thing is a mute point

Hello every one. I think it is a frustration to me when I read a terrific post and would love to make a comment (and I typ one out) then I have a window pop up and I have to register with some rss? or the like. I am a novice and I feel uncomfortable in giving myself out to register when I am not sure what the ramifications are. The music by choice would be a nicer option because I too blog when the kids are resting at night. If I can turn it low It helps to allow me to enjoy it. I hope you are all having a fun friday. donetta's last blog post..Home now

Since I use a reader for browsing blog land, my biggest pet peeve is bloggers who don’t syndicate their full feed. I just don’t usually have time to click through and eventually unsubscribe.

I totally agree with everyone who said, "People who don't visit my blog after I leave a comment (or several) on theirs". After about 3 times with no response, I either stop visiting them, or (yikes) become a lurker. Angela's last blog post..What's Cookin'

Hmmm…looks like I’ll think twice when I put music on my site after reading a few of the comments!
Actually, I rarely have music …just once in awhile for a special occasion. I don’t mind others’ music once in awhile…especially if it’s soothing, and not jarring!

Anyway, I guess mine would be lurkers since I rarely lurk myself.
And of course those icky, grafitti types of replies from strange people…thankfully, they are few and far between!

OK…one more. How addictive it can be!
