Really Stupid Pet Peeves

You are right I do love those

If it's anything like our landfill, the speed limit is "strictly" enforced by a couple squads of chuckholes, placed at random.

The quotation marks mean that "THEY" said household garbage "ONLY". Get it right or 'They' will come after you.
Whoever 'They' are is meant to scare us into compliance. Don't test this theory without proper preparation.

I don't really like babies crying much, either. I am not sensitive to the noise, but I get annoyed when they cry in exceedingly high-pitched screeches which go to the limit of my hearing range.

People using apostrophes incorrectly and speaking incorrect grammar. Like:
"Sale on DVD's" - That would be meaning that there's a sale on things that belong to a DVD.
"1970's" - That means that there's something belonging to a 1970.
"It ain't very good." - Should be "It isn't very good"
People who drop the soft Ts from words, like "wa'er (water)", "Be'er (Better)" or "Ul'ima'e (Ultimate)"
People often replacing "ing" with "ink", and "th" with "f or v", like "I fink I wen' to da shop wiv my mates".
People using double negatives in arguments like "I didn't do nothing".

Where exactly do you live?!? I have never heard anyone say Ul'ima'e.

The only thing close, is I MIGHT have heard a little kid say wa'er.

What kind of adults talk like that, though?

Well mainly teenagers do that, in Britain. I'm not sure about the ul'ima'e, might just be ultima'e.

One of the worst sounds is someone filing their nails it gives me shudders just thinking about it.

Annoying, repetative sounds. Like someone tapping their fingernails on a table.

A lot of people talking at once, especially in a small room.

People who do not say thank you.

People who can't spell.

People who can spell, but are too lazy to properly spell.

Non-handicapped people in handicapped spaces.

People taking up more than one parking space.

Fat people wearing revealing clothing.

Slamming doors. Creaking doors are okay.

Ashtrays full of cigarette butts.

People who take an hour to shower.

Drivers who have no respect for fellow drivers- yeilding, stop signs, speed limits etc.

People who have to pass you even though you're going 15 miles over the speed limit.

Wet towels rolled up into a ball.

Dropping plates or utensils into the sink.

Eating all but one bite of food "because you're full".

People who eat all they can eat.

People who talk incessantly on cell phones.

Drivers on cell phones.

Getting a phone call and it's someone on a cell phone.

Commercial breaks that are more than 3 minutes.

Pepsi and car ads before the previews in movie theaters.

Previews that show you the entire plot and all the special effects to a movie.

People who spit out gum onto the sidewalk.

People who let their dog crap all over the place.

When you leave a box of cereal or crackers out and they get all moist from the ambient humidity.

The way can lids are where it's impossible to rinse all the dirt off the lid before you open it.

Whenever you find a pebble in a bag of beans.

(One of the reasons I became a vegetarian) the "aborted fetus part" of an egg.

Public toilets that aren't regularly cleaned.

Grafitti, particularly large ebonic grafitti.

Ads that ask to feed the homeless, but pocket more than they use to actually feed them.

The way movies today are on DVD a month later.

Bananas that go from green to brown in one day.

People mowing their lawns or blowing leaves before 9am.

The freaky deeky Dutch.

When I swallow a gulp of tea only to realize as it's going down my espohagas that it's boiling hot and knowing it'll reach my stomach in 3 seconds.

People who cut you off then go the same speed you were.

Large-sized cars in front of you blocking your view.

People who don't wait their turn at a four way intersection.

Stores that mark everything up 20% to have a "20% off sale".

Sales clerks or cashiers who do not give you eye contact.

Unattended children.

Call phones, iPods, beepers or whatever else that beeps all the time.

People who eat McDonalds every day.

Fart humor.

The way people automatically laugh when someone trips or falls down.

Stores that profit billions but can only afford two cashiers.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

You sound like you must be a very unhappy person.

STOP

1-Way

It really annoys me when thugs break into my house and repeatedly shoot me in the knees.

Wusses
there wussy-ness disgusts me

I HATE when more than one person tries to talk to me at one time, especially when I explain I can't understand them and they KEEP DOING IT.
