Posted: 8/17/2008 2:30:49 PM | Strangers who approch me and yap about their problems. One time I took a cab to bingo-I was meeting my mother there.Anyway,as soon as I got into the cab,the driver started complaining about his wife.A few months later I needed to take a cab and the driver looked familar.As soon as I got in,he started complaining about his wife .Yep,it was the same driver.God,go see a marriage counselor or talk to the wife about the issues-leave me out of it!
Also rich Hollywood stars who are always complaining yet they have so much.
Polictics
People who talk too much and too loud
Grammar police
Bullies
People who tell me they're going to do something but don't do it
Moochers
People who cut in line

I also second "annoying commercials" as a peeve. I especially hate Bob's Discount Furniture. SHUT UP, Bob!! | |

Posted: 8/23/2008 1:21:17 AM | As a uni student, I have to catch TWO buses there and back, every day, 5 days a week. Therefore, I do NOT want to have to sit for over an hour listening to someone else's loud hiphop/rap/techno when I'm trying to read a book, trying to think or just take a nap. For goodness sakes, TURN YOUR MUSIC DOWN! I really do NOT want to listen to your crap music, ok? I'm surprised they're not deaf yet! Seriously sometimes they're so loud I can actually hear the music 2 metres away even with the bus engine going.
Another pet peeve is bad spelling/grammar/punctuation or all of the aforementioned lol. I think its rather appalling when 20 or even 30-something year old men send me messages full of spelling and grammatical errors- whether or not they were deliberate I didn't find out. Whether or not they've had education, there's no excuse for anyone to have grammatical/spelling skills that match those of a 8 year old. No kidding. What's worse is when guys email me with something like "hey hw u doin u seem fyn" in their subject line and nothing in the actual message space O_o | |

Posted: 8/23/2008 1:33:23 AM | | And another thing. Its really irritating, for both me and other passengers on buses when people line up and stare around looking like idiots, and then once they get to the front to pay, only then do they start fishing around their bags for their wallet and money. What's more appalling is these people are usually uni students who have all the time in the world and are only going to uni early so they can get the good computers to browse Facebook or watch Youtube vids. Not only that but they also waste more precious time by purposely giving either large notes or lots of small coins. They should be more considerate, that's all I can say. | |

Posted: 8/24/2008 2:44:05 PM | 1) Control maniacs - life and people aren't static, quit acting like you can make them bend to your will;
2) Patronizing people - nothing more insulting, have the guts to just come out and insult someone directly if you're going to do it;
3) Passive/aggressive attitudes - just say what you mean and mean what you say;
4) Jealousy - enough said;
5) Whining - you are what you choose to be, if it ain't working, choose another option; | |

Posted: 8/26/2008 9:23:35 AM | I also hate it when people park on the sidewalk. I go for walks twice a day and it really irritates me when someone blocks the sidewalk with their vehical.It's so rude and inconsiderate to those who walk,jog,or bike.Park on the side of the road like everyone else.In my town most people park on the side of the road instead of blocking the sidewalk.But there are a few inconsiderate people who park on the sidewalk. I get so mad. | |

Posted: 8/26/2008 9:47:31 AM | | My big pet peeve are the bathroom stalls at places like Home Depot or Lowes. They all swing inward. And when they swing in there is only about 8 inches of clearance between the toilet and the door. So I invariably end up brushing my pants leg against a filthy bowl. I don't see how bigger people can even fit in there. | |

Posted: 9/18/2008 7:29:38 PM | I hate that too, Kimberly! I used to work at the airport and most people just stand there.
Shoplifters! Customers will complain about us running out of something but when it's stolen it's not put into the computer automatically like when it's rung up, so we don't get enough when the orders come in | |

Posted: 9/18/2008 8:59:31 PM | people who post in forums and use no punctuation or capitalization and the sentences just run on forever and they don't know the friggin' difference between your and you're or their and there and they're or that too has three friggin' o's and you try to figure out what the hell they're trying to say in between the lack of punctuation and all the typos and the text talk and no sentence structure or paragraphs like just everything runs together and you're certain they're really trying to make a valid point or ask for some real advice but it's completely lost in the train wreck of a posting and after awhile your head just starts to hurt and you give the hell up and go have a shot of Wild Turkey instead .....  | |

On #9, I'm about at the point to where I'm going to embarrass the hell out of who ever has so much perfume. I don't see how you can have so much on you that when you walk away, I can still smell you on me hours later and all you did way walk by. | |

Posted: 9/19/2008 3:43:04 AM | | These 'pet peeves' of yours seem so small. I can't think of any for myself... I don't fret over other peoples manners too much. I find it inconciderate that some people don't care who they're smoking infront of like pregnant women, children, passerbys on the street. | |

Posted: 9/20/2008 12:24:15 PM | | I don't know, Fleur_de_Lis, though B.O sucks too, at times I think I would rather have someone with that issue instead of how these people over do perfume. At least B.O doesn't trigger any allergies symptoms. | |
