B. Generate  your pet peeve text for poster Project

In preparation to our next assignments (a series of posters), we will need to collect some text

Posters must include the following text:

• Pet Peeve

• Merriam-Webster.com definition- a pet peeve as a frequent subject of complaint

• Title of your Pet Peeve •

Your paragraph explaining your pet peeve

• Do not design anything at this point. We are just collecting text,

FYI: What is a pet-peeve?

• dictionary.com: a particular and often continual annoyance merriam-webster.com: a frequent subject of complaint vocabulary.com: a peeve is an annoyance, and a pet peeve is an annoyance that’s nurtured like a pet — it’s something someone can never resist complaining about. There are all kinds of pet peeves, like littering, misusing punctuation, driving slowly in the fast lane, or talking during movies. If something like that drives you crazy and you have to yap about it, it’s a pet peeve.
