A pet peeve (or pet hate) is a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to them, to a greater degree than others may find it.

Examples may be poor table manners, sloppy kitchen hygiene, smoking, grammatical errors in written passages, inconsiderate driving or lazy co-workers, and loud gum smacking.

What are yours?

Mine are:

Drivers who tail-gate especially when I am making a right turn
People who smack their food/slurp their beverages or lick their fingers
People who don't respect personal space
Cashiers who put my change/credit card on the counter instead of my hand
People who walk their dogs without a leash
People who talk at the movies
Automated phone systems
People who don't say thank you
People who crack their knuckles
Parents that let their kids stare
Not squeezing the tube of toothpaste from the bottom
Finger prints on glass/mirrors
People who pick boogers in traffic
People who cough and don't cover their mouth
People who leave their shopping cart in the middle of th aisle
People who skip the line stating that they have 1 question
Anyone calling MY phone and asks Who is this?
Scam emails from Africa/UK
The drive-thru attendant asking if I want to try their new (insert food/beverage here)
When talk show host allow callers to phone in but don't let them have their say
Bad kids
Loud women
Men who argue with women
People who eat in bed
People who pitch get- rich- quick schemes
Bad breath/ halitosis/ Body odor
People who spit in public
Grafitti on anything
People handing out pamphlets in traffic/leaving anything on my windshield
Rude ushers at church/ Or the pastor asking me to turn to my neighbor and say this/ do that
Any man who shares details about his bowel movements
People who sniff snot instead of blowing their nose
People who tap the fingers, feet, or pens on hard surfaces
Men who video tape you without consent as you stroll South Beach
When who bump into me and don't excuse themselves
People who think they have all the sense in the world
Loud music in resudential areas

People who eat verrryy slowlllyyy

People who make weird movements w/ their mouths out of habit. Can't really explain it.

Secretive/evasive (for no reason) men.

OMG, Ms.P -

You just made me remember a guy I knew in High School. He'd eat very, very slow and when he was ready to swallow his food, he would roll his eyes in the back of his head. Gah!

Man, my list of pet peeves is waaaay too long...It would need an entire thread of its own. Most have to do with bad manners and bad driving though!

It would be interesting to see your pet peeves, FA.
My best friend is an Aquarian and nothing, I mean nothing, bothers him. The only quirk I see in him is his inability to let go of the past...

That's not so bad FA...some of it made me chuckle.
I don't like Techno music either because it sounds like I'm inside a madman's dream!
I don't like to hear crying either - especially children who have the ugly cry LOL!

I get annoyed with people talking in a foreign language loudly...they seem to be shouting at each other and that's what annoys me. To me I guess it sounds like they are arguing!

*People who do not listen to anyone but themselves.

*People who are over 30 not disabled and still living with the parents.

*Men who do not realize that it's 21st century and that they have to shave more of themselves than just their faces.

*Yellow lights that sneak up on you at the worst moment and it takes you a while to decide if you are speeding up or breaking.

...but mostly just people

Oh perfect thread. I've been really extra annoyed with everything lately...

1. Arrogant people who think they're wiser and more evolved than others.
2. Ignorant people who spout off at the mouth about shit they really know nothing about. (Not sure if they even believe they know what they're talking about, but most of the time it's not even worth telling them they're wrong.)
3. Chronic-coughers. WTF dude. I know they probably can't help it, but it's mad annoying and makes me all paranoid I'm gonna catch something.
4. Forced-laughter!!!!!!! *head explosion* So annoying, but you don't want to be that bitch who calls them out, so you just grin and bear it.
5. People who abuse compliments.
6. People who wipe their runny-noses with they sleeves.
7. People who drive without a purpose...with no regard to anyone else around them. They think since they have no where to be, no one else does.
8. People who pick at themselves...
9. Dirty feet :/
10. Loud burpers. COME ON
11. People who have really loud phone conversations.
12. People who stand in the middle of the walkway.
13. People who stand in the way in the bathroom to check themselves out in the mirror.

...I think I'm done for now.

I feel better 🙂

My number 1 pet peeve?

1. People who think evolution exists.

Lol. True. In which form though? Because it cannot be denied that we have all adapted to our environments over time.

Evolutionary biologists document the FACT that evolution occurs, and also develop and test theories that explain its causes thus providing a unifying explanation for the diversity of life on Earth.
