Mobile Phone Week-Or-So :: 02.11.10
Send in your mobile phone pet peeves for the week of February 15th! Perhaps the simplest and most common generator of peeves, the mobile phone prods and pricks us in all places, public and private. With skull phones just around the corner, it’s likely these peeves will soon become irrelevant—so let’s spray them across the galaxy while we still can.
Rob and Shana Week-or-so :: 01.18.10
For the next week or so, the pictures for peeves will be of Peeve Pile’s national spokesperson, Rob Grace, and his special person, Shana, enacting various peeves. Please feel free to make such pictures yourself. Just include a link to them when submitting a peeve.
Voting Now Enabled. :: 01.02.10
Hello. I’ve added a voting feature, so you can vote as you assume that you would – just click on a one-to-five star rating (it will tell you your vote has been recorded); five indicating that you completely agree with, or find the peeve amusing, one meaning the opposite. Once a bunch of ratings are in, I’ll add a worst, and best rated area to the right column.
Happy Holidays :: 12.22.09
Happy Holidays from PeevePile. Submit your holiday peeves, and they will be published soooon.
Back from Vacation :: 09.08.09
Hello – I’m back from vacation, so pardon the break in peeves posted people, and thank you, again, all for your comments. Keep them coming, and let me know if you have any suggestions. – Biff
Artist Intervention Week / Day :: 07.02.09
Are you an artist, or do you know how to draw and scan, or at least save an image in photoshop? You should apply to be a guest artist for a week or day of peeves. You can give me categories, and the images will be featured everyday for a week, or just a day. Inquire within!
Meet Rob :: 05.18.09
If you don’t know him already, Rob Grace is the national spokesman for PeevePile.com. His enthusiasm for our site is unmatched. He is paid only in phosphorescent tufts of peeve aura for his exquisite acting. Watch the commercials Estrosupom and Big Year in the media section to see him in action. Thanks Rob, you smell like dreams.
Server Problems Again :: 05.05.09
I have just moved the site to a new server after MediaTemple was down for another 11 hours from yesterday afternoon into the night. This new service should be faster and not deprive you from your peeves. Let me know if anything is nasty or sour!
Last Day Of Movie Week Today! :: 03.22.09
Movie Week went really well. Don’t forget these previously-posted classic movie peeves: Clapping at the end of movies, Endings in film or literature where everything turns out to have been fake, Subtitle text extending too far, and this one about characters in animation or fantasy movies.
Movie Week Underway / New Facebook Group :: 03.16.09
Movie week has started, and we’ve received a good amount of movie-related peeves. Keep them coming! A Facebook group has been started by our tech-savvy writer correspondent, Nicole Lefton. Join now: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=58318012001
Movie Week! :: 03.12.09
Next week, starting on Monday the 16th of March, PeevePile will be having it’s first theme-week with movie week. Surprisingly, a week wherein the peeves relate exclusively to movies. Turn in your movie-related peeves to get them posted within a day or two. I admit, a lot of these are my own, so I’d like others to pitch onto the pile and dilute the Biff-thickness. Love, Biffy
Site Problems :: 03.01.09
The site has been experiencing problems this weekend thanks to the expensive web host I use, MediaTemple. PeevePile has been down and extremely slow for at least 30 hours. It’s slow anyway, so I’ll be switching to another, faster host in the near future. I’m sure MediaTemple apologizes for depriving you from your necessary intake of peeves this weekend.
Email when Peeve Posted :: 02.19.09
First, I’d like to say that if you don’t see your peeve on the site for a while, do not assume it hasn’t been accepted! There are hundreds and hundreds of them banked and ready to launch when the time is right. To make it clear when your peeve is posted, I’ve added a feature that will send you, the peeve poster, an email so you can see if anyone has responded, or add more comments of your own.
RSS Feed Working :: 02.12.09
Attention! The RSS Feed is now working better-than-ever after a couple Peevers mentioned that it was total crap. Thanks Peevers!
Share Links :: 02.01.09
Peevers! – I’ve added a set of icons beneath each post which many of you are likely familiar with. If you enjoy the peeve, and wish to share it with others, simply click and spray peeve embers far and wide across this slanted earth. If you are on Facebook, use that icon.
Holiday Acknowledgement :: 12.30.08
Hi, this is a holiday acknowledgement post to let everyone know that we are all mutually experiencing “the holidays.” Hey — why not post some holiday peeves, huh? Like this one and this one
Good Day :: 11.05.08
Happy day. Also, if anyone sees peeves they would like to see turned into videos (along with ideas for how they would be executed), contact Biffy via the contact Biffy section and I’ll put them on the list for the next shoot. if you are in the New York area and what to be in them, that would reek of awesomeness.
PeevePile Listed on GeekSugar.com :: 11.03.08
PeevePile is the site of the day on GeekSugar, an honor that no words can do justice. We welcome GS to our global peeve initiative. My favorite sugar is brown.
Special Places :: 10.26.08
You can now click on the “recent comments” header to see, you guessed it, recent news. Also, please enjoy the about section. It will expand shortly and include more rumination about the essential fabric of peeves.
Comments :: 10.24.08
Everyone – the comments recently have been ideal, thanks for putting thought into them. I’m working on a page that will show all of them together. Continue to let me know if you have any ideas for improvement. – Biffy
Jezebel Link / Comments :: 10.22.08
Hi all. It looks like we’re linked from Jezebel, a site I just heard of: http://jezebel.com/5067169/
There are a lot of good comments on this post. Keep commenting away! If your comments are peeves themselves, be sure to also post the peeve. ~ Biffy
Images / Daily Format :: 10.07.08
The site has transmogrified into one that will exude at least one (1) peeve daily, and sometimes more. Within the week the media section will fill out, and a set of videos will pop up, one per week. Look for new ones on Tuesday. Keep submitting peeves and pass along the word, my friends. And let me know if you have any ideas for improvement.
July 08 :: 07.16.08
As promised, I’ve put together a fruity new site that is up with modern times, though I’ll miss the archaic classic site for its ignorance of those same times. The new site is not officially “launching” just yet – I’m putting it up as a beta version. The real version will include image uploading with peeves, and videos the Peeve Elders, Friends of the Peeve Elders and I are concocting. If you have any constructive comments or ideas for the site, contact us.
2008 May :: 05.27.08
So: Those of you who haven’t been so excited about the crappy Mac Classic look n’ feel of the site are in luck: a new design is in the works, along with a complete overhaul of the site. The new site will have many new features, including: video peeves, an easier interface, paragon peeves, and the ultimate faux pas, to name a few. We’re also going to have some sort of event called a Peeve Raiser, where we collect peeves from the general public. If you want to get involved, email me, otherwise, look for the new site sometime in mid-summer.
