minus-squareApathy Tree@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoA 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)

minus-squareElHexo [comrade/them]@hexbear.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoIt’s partly a joke (your favourite peeve, for example) and probably a reference to the other, now archaic, meaning of pet: fit of peevishness, offense or ill-humor at feeling slighted I think you can accept idioms as they are or you’ll be endlessly feeling like one saying or another has got your goat
