Pet Peeves

Post Reply New Topic

Me too. There's a bloke at work who burps several times a day, and I can tell that each burp he does is forced out, just to be rude and obnoxious. I'm a person who doesn't burp at all, I find it gross and embarrassing.

The Dirty Dancing song. I just can't

Tech interrupting me: new versions, registrations, junk..

Lukewarm coffee or food.

My brother drums, so he loves to flip random stuff sometimes. More often than not, it’s usually a kitchen knife, and it drives me crazy. The other day it was a rock hounder. Things I wish my adolescent brother wouldn’t do for safety reasons but does anyway.

almost getting hit by cars

off leash dogs

customers having the nerve to whistle @ me or otherwise rude or too casual

"huh" and "what" instead of "excuse me"

loud noises

micromanaging tattletom trying to get me made redundant

idiots keep cross examining me

wrongfully accused

laughed @

riffraff talking too much and too loud

Scammers on Steam. They won't stop coming after my stuff no matter how many times I tell them to F*** Off.

When people wear flipflops that make loud clicking noises with each step. They're my mom's favorite.

When you get multiple pages of stuff marked Pages 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3 etc, but they don't put the date on Page 2 or 3, or any other identifying feature.

I have about 20 sets of these from the hospital, all with the same type printing, and all about 3 pages long, all unstapled and mixed up over the years.

Trying to figure out which Page 2 and Page 3 goes with which Page 1 is driving me insane.

Page 2 and 3 never have a date or a doctor's name to match up with Page 1.

People who think that their personal, biased experience gives a complete picture, especially when it comes to marginalized groups of people. It leads those individuals to think that a specific demographic (e.g. gender) has it easier or that prejudice and discrimination for certain groups aren’t really problems.

When I'm trying to get to the grocery store and the only entrance to the parking lot is blocked by a really long line coming from the Chick-fil-A drive thru.

Drinking vessels placed standing up in sink, with no water in them to boot. Drives me up the wall. Worse than that... also with silverware in them! WTF? Just place them all laying down, and keep the damn cups on the counter... better, use the same one for a while. Not a new cup/glass every f-n hour AGGGHHHHH!

People that flop down on the couch.

People who are rude/impatient to fast food employees.

When I say I don't like my neighbours and people advise me to move. But when I say I want to move because of my neighbours people put me off by saying "good luck finding another place, the waiting lists are long and you probably won't get given anywhere". Then people wonder why we don't always listen to advice and just need someone to listen, support, and agree with you.

Classical music snobs. Listen to it because you enjoy it. Don't listen to it (or claim to listen to it) because you think it makes you superior in any way. f*****g irritating.

There's also snobbery within classical music itself. I knew a guy who argued that Mozart was intellectually superior to other composers, but he never actually listened to his music or that of any other classical composer.

When I think of pet peeves all day long as they happen, and I come to this thread unable to remember any of them. Something about computers, or people, or life. All those things.

Precious lil "people " talking too loud and too much and giving me a headache. Loud music especially in confined locations such as the bus and litterbox

Having to urinate and no litterbox

Precious lil "people" speaking too vaguely "we will deal with it". Who is "we" and what will they allegedly do?

Not being able to sleep

Exhausted all the time

Day laborers screaming "chino" at me. Last week the store manager told me to stay out of the "day laborers" section. Do not push carts in the day laborers section. Thus reducing my jurisdiction to about 3/4 the size. (Which doesn't fix the underlying problem. Home Depot refuses to get rid of the day laborers.)

Not being able to defecate

Emotional overeating
