Everyone’s allowed to have pet peeves. It’s normal and bound to happen.
In this episode, I talk about common pet peeves; my friends’ pet peeves; and my own pet peeves. Do you ignore them? Deal with them? (Also, how DO you deal with them?)

These confrontations don’t have to be big blow-outs. In fact, I hope they’re not; I hope you get to them before they reach that point.
Like with most things, there is no overarching solution. It’s acceptable to be annoyed with your friends, and it’s also acceptable to give feedback and work through it, because that’s how friendships grow.
