moon pixie, no problem. i was teasing you and making fun of myself. it's true i get on my leo horse when people correct me and my remark about your "i just kid. or am i?" was a little backslap for critizing my grammar. my first statement "pet peeve? what's that?" is how i see the whole question when i'm being reasonable/compassionate. it is peevish let someone else's silly behaviour get you all riled up(i think).
but if i'm really honest certain things really do irritate me and they are the ones that i listed. fortunately i don't take myself seriously when i behave/react like that. unfortunately sometimes in print it looks like i am serious!
i wasn't taking offense at your remark about kidding. i was saying "if you're going to correct my language then watch yours". again, i am acting out my leo sun and virgo merc.
and the bit about condescending people is me laughing at myself for the fact that a) it's true, i hate being talked down to and b)i know that when i get mad about it i am proving myself the smaller person....
does all that make sense? if not, let me just say no hard feelings!!
i wish i could master the art of written "droll" like, say, blue moon. but it doesn't always come out right, does it?!
