So what are your biggest pet peeves?

People telling me things I already know.

Especially at work, I'm a carpenters apprentice technically, and my boss usually comes in to tell me how to do it. That would be ok, but considering I've been doing it for over a year I think I have a handle on it. You only need to tell me things once, and I'll do it that way unless I think I can do it better or more efficiently.

Next, people who aren't willing to accept new ideas because it isn't the way they were taught/been doing it, even though it is more than obviously more efficient.

What's worse is when people tell you they need you to do something because they don't have time. Then they stand over your shoulder, watch you and tell you how to do it. If you have the time to stand around and tell me what I'm doing wrong, you have the time to do it your own damn self.
 
Just off the bat... People who n*gger lip J's or slobber on my pipe.

I was saying that when I do have to roll a cigarette, I always take a paper and fold it up and stick it in the end for something to wrap my wouth around(stfu, I know how that sounded, you don't need to tell me lol).
 
Oooh...

My pet peeves include....

-Grease...
Like grease on a pizza, grease on someones face, greasy dishes (it's why I refuse to do dishes...gotta <3 dishwashers)
Just grosses the heck outta me.

-Drivers talking on cell phones.
I'm at a 4-way stop, and see people go out of turn, or forget their turn--they're always on a cell phone...I wanna take their phone and shove it where they won't like it!! And it's not just teenagers...all ages do it...Though, I noticed they're mostly women (not saying I haven't seen some men do it, however!)

-Fidgety people.
Okay, mostly kids...
But OMG SIT STILL ALREADY! (I notice this most at places like restaurants or movie theaters :/ )

-Hypocrites.
My mom for example. I have a job, she pestering me to get another...she hasn't had a job all summer >.> She keeps skipping her interviews and avoiding all opportunities to get a job!

-Lack of politeness.
Someone bumps into me in a hallway, I say "I'm sorry" even if it wasn't my fault >.> I hardly ever hear the other people apologize D:
Same things for "please" and "thank you"!

-Hallway Manners in general
The halls at school are...really narrow :(
Yet there's all these people going on the left side of the hall, instead of the right, or there'd be a couple holding hands as they walk, taking up the whole hall, making it impossible for anyone to pass :/ Or the people who stop in the middle of the halls to talk, in between classes...taking up room and time....argh!

-The radio!
So you kissed a girl and you liked it? Okay. You got stuck in my head the first time, and I hated it. I -really- hate that I have to hear you 5 more times in the same hour, though.

-and much more '-'

I've got one friend who just slobbers up my pipe when ever he uses it. I swear he things it's a fucking lollipop.

To Morwen: -Excessive pen tapping.
We could never hang out cause I tap on anything and everything. In the car, at my desk standing near a trashcan, on my chest with my hands if theres nothing else around.
Idle hands do the devils work. My hands are devil free. I think they have minds of their own, and those minds have ADD.

I would totally cut your hands off. No joke.

Dog lovers that don't understand "no" - (I think) My dogs are adorable. They are both small and generally people want to play with them. Problem is, my Chihuahua is a vicious dog. He WILL bite you. And telling him, "oh but you're so cute" doesn't change this fact. Most people don't even ask, they just come up and try to pet him. He barks his head off and they keep coming. I have to literally yell at them not to touch him. People want to fight with me and tell me they're so good with dogs so surely my dog will like them. What's worse is when their kids come up and I yell at their kids because I want to get their attention quickly so they don't get hurt and their parent's (who aren't paying attention to their kids themselves) get shitty because I just yelled at their precious angel.

You do realize that 9 times out of 10 your dog is acting like that because of you, right?

- People who walk in the middle of the fucking street.
Click to expand...

I seriously have people on my block a that used to do this. They're people we call 'The Hillbillies' and they're seriously out of place in my neighborhood. They have like 97 cars. Most of them used to be parked on the street. At any hour of the day, 70% of the family used to be standing in the street, right in the middle, just talking. Leaning on their cars and drinking brews. If you pulled into my street (as they didn't live that far from the corner) they'd stand there until you honked, otherwise they wouldn't move. So my mother and I started something. We called it Redneck Chicken. Do not slow down, do not swerve (you'd hit a car anyways), just punch it when you turned on the street. I nearly clipped the old man like 3x before they realized that standing in the street was a bad idea.

Another pet peeve:

Stupid Non-Smokers. You really think that just because you're hungry and want a table at a resturant as quickly as possible, that because you're a non-smoker you can sit in the smoking section and proceed to bitch at me because I'm smoking? Fuck you, keep your ridiculous sighs, your eye rolling and your 'Oh, did you actually hear me?' snide-ass comments. How are you going to like the smoking section WHEN I SHOVE MY CIGARETTE IN YOUR EYE. You think that because you're a nonsmoker you have a right to preach at me about quitting after you ASK to come over to MY house, fully knowing that I'm a smoker? Again, fuck you. If I am standing the appropriate distance (20 feet) from an entry way at a bar or an office or a department store and I'm having a cigarette, keep your disdainful looks and fake-ass fucking coughing to yourself. We are outside, I can hit you without getting pounced on by security. I hate it when people blow smoke in my face, even though I am a smoker and I do not do that to people. I do not have my cigarette above the table when my waiter/waitress arrives at the table, that shit is rude. So please do not treat me like a fucking cro-magnon just because I have a smoking habit.

Rawr.

Up to three packs a day, unfiltered, Mor? :\

<3

I dislike, with a vengeance, when I can hear my neighbor's music that he's playing in his house...inside my fully-locked, windows-and-shades-down, TV-on-and-fairly-loud-because-I'm-watching-Jurassic-Park, Air-conditioned, house. What the fuck, just because you like to listen to "Hips Don't Lie" or "Ridin' Dirty" doesn't mean that I want to, and especially not at 9:30 at night.

The same goes for those fuckers who do this in their cars. Windows up or down...I don't care. I shouldn't be able to hear your damn radio unless I'm in the passenger seat.
 
Sounds like you need a smoke, Wenny. There is no such thing as a smoking section where I live, so that isn't really an issue I have.

I start to twitch whenever I see the word ridiculous spelled with an E. I can't tell you how many times I've seen posts, memos, notes, random written communication where the only word that is mispelled is ridiculous.

I can deal with a lot of them. Most, in fact. This particular one, though... *growls*

Out of all the educated and semi-educated people I've encountered, it really feels like a huge portion of those people don't know how to spell that one particular word. They can spell any other friggin word, just not that one. :mad:

Mispronunciations drive him up the wall too. Believe me I know. :nono:

Some of my pet peeves are:

Rude smokers - I don't mind if people choose to smoke but please don't do it in the bathroom. It's not like I can run out of there quickly while I'm using it.

Rude customers - It irks me when people would not be patient or even remotely understanding when waiters or waitresses were trying to take care of them. Also, if you're not going to tip (unless you REALLY had bad service) don't eat out.

People who talk down to me - I admit when I don't know something. I am not all knowing but I'm not a dumb bunny.

You know, I'm so neurotic, I was going to deliberately misspell it back to you just to be a shit, but I can't do it. lol I hate it when I misspell something. It doesn't bother me when other people do it, just me.

Another pet peeve I thought of is rude cell phone users. Yes, I know sometimes there is a phone call you have to take, but if you and I are out to lunch or something, I'm really not loving sitting there looking around aimlessly for 15 minutes listening to you shoot the shit with someone else. This also applies to random people in the restaurant who feel the need to have a loud, hyena-laughing cell phone conversation at the next table over to the point where your conversation at your own table is drowned out. It's called voicemail. Look into it.
