A peeve of mine is the term “pet peeve”. 😅
If something bothers you so, why the fuck would you keep, nurture, and tend to it as a pet?
I propose it change to haunting peeve, because you don’t want it, can’t get rid of it, and it exists regardless if you think about it or not.
😁 (I’m not super serious about this, but “pet peeve” really does low-key bother me)
I can support this
Omg you are an actual person. Every time I see your username under a post I, for whatever reason, think it’s the community name.
I’ve seen a lot of your posts I think 😅 thanks for what you do! 🫡
(No it didn’t register that I replied to you until I went back to look.. I don’t really -see- usernames)
I am, and thanks! Beep boop, I like sharing memes. Just doing my part to help Lemmy grow.
I like that you like sharing memes, because I’ve come across them enough to think you are a community unto yourself.
I like sorting by new to report garbage and interact with things that would otherwise die, also to help Lemmy grow! It’s lonely in new but… i get to report a lot of weird stuff.. so there’s that 🫠
Thank you for your service, soldier. That's the kind of stuff Lemmy needs!
it's actually short for petite peeve, because it's something small and unimportant. Or maybe it's not, but you don't know.
It's partly a joke (your favourite peeve, for example) and probably a reference to the other, now archaic, meaning of pet:
I think you can accept idioms as they are or you'll be endlessly feeling like one saying or another has got your goat
You must have missed the part that says I’m not really serious.
