Motorcycles. Especially when I'm trying to take a nap. I doze off and then one of them goes screaming on by. Why can't they make houses and apartments more soundproof?

Heatwaves are my biggest pet peeve.

unhygienic people

Attention whores

Getting maple syrup in my hair no matter how carefully I have my pancakes.

Time for a swim lol

When people create a whole thread about a random line in a random song that's not really relevant to anything or worthy of a discussion.

Entitled people. A physically disabled person asked me to pick up what she'd dropped about 20 meters away from where I was. It was raining badly. So, I told her that I couldn't because I didn't want to get wet. She got angry. So, I ignored her and left.

When the action known as twerking is included in what is supposed to be family friendly content.

When I go to get a prescription refilled and the pharmacist asks me when I'll be able to come in again. When I ask what they mean, they say that it needs to be ordered.

Studios, networks, and executives who think attacking their fanbase is an excellent marketing strategy.

Movies that reveal a twist villain and suddenly there's a minute or five of film left so there's no time to make it compelling. It's even worse when we are able to guess who it is the moment they come on screen for the first time and be right about it when the big reveal happens much later.

When you've been talking on your phone too long that your face sweats and somehow manages to turn your phone screen on so your cheek rests on the end call button and it hangs up.

Those pre-recorded scam calls that I receive sometimes. Some are in some foreign language (I believe Chinese). Others are in English and demand my details, threatening that I will be arrested if I don't pay the tax that I failed to pay.

When people ask "who?" at whatever name you say, even if it's a name that isn't hard to understand.

When people ask "who?" when you're talking about an object, for example you ask, "where's the clock gone?" and someone says, "where's the who gone?"

When WP is so inactive that you see your username in the "last posted in this section" bit in the index page for days.

People who think that slow is a bad thing to be. I'd like to get my fit, quick-witted sister to knock those people with her self-defense moves. If I had a job, I'd pay her $20 each time.
