I have a ton of pet peeves.

I am in total agreement with the person that said people throwing trash on the ground instead of putting it in a trash can. The other day I was driving behind somebody and they threw an entire McDonald's bag of trash right out of their car window....when we got to the next light I felt like getting out of my car and saying something about it but reconsidered (people get shot doing things like that LOL).

Another is somebody who doesn't put their cart in the cart corral at the grocery store ESPECIALLY if it is only a space or two over from where they dumped it. I mean really....you are so lazy that you can't walk 10 more steps to put a cart where it belongs (and where it is less likely to do damage to anybody's car on a windy day).

Another BIG one is the "text speak" that I see on the forums. It's annoying on the forums but it's even more annoying when I see it at a school turned in as a homework assignment. :(  I saw my boss write an email to her boss and wrote it in all caps, completely misspelled things like good (put GUD instead) and said basically: I have errands to run so I'm leaving work, use my vacation hours (put vacay hours) to fill in the missed time. I didn't say a thing, she is my boss after all, but I totally cringed inside when I saw her writing that. I wanted to rewrite it for her. ugh.

My pet peeve for today: When I spend 20 minutes on surveys, actually answering survey questions about this product or that, then it asks some questions for demographic purposes and suddenly says "We're sorry but you did not qualify for this survey." Seriously? What are they doing with the rest of the info I filled out about the products they were asking about? Today, it was which e-reader I preferred and why. Then, right after they got my zip, I'm disqualified. Why didn't they ask that first and disqualify me?? UGG!

Another pet peeve, people I don't know who think that the number of kids my family is going to have becomes their business because I'm pregnant or they think they can touch me just because my pregnant belly sticks out.

You can find me on Youtube!

Oh man, I could go on and on.
1. cell phone and driving, standing in line, talking loud, ring tones, etc.
2. drivers (cutting off, going slow, lack of turn signal, etc.)
3. people who let their dogs poop in others yards
4. bad customer service (especially in a restaurant)

Definitely these, but I have more...

1. Hoarding and junk piling up.  I HATE packratting. It's bad Feng Shui.
2. Spam
3. Computer viruses, trojans, spyware and the like.  HOW DARE THESE TROLLS destroy our property and for what reason?
4. Busybodies.  People not minding their own business.  Don't tell me how to live, talk, walk or think.  LEAVE ME ALONE.
5. Consumerism.  I hate always being bombarded with ads and someone always trying to sell me something.  Let me find what I want on my own.  That's why we have Google, Yahoo, etc...
6. Bad hygiene.  I hate to smell other nasty people.
7.  Liars.
8. Real Estate market.  There's so much deception there now.
9. People who think they're better than me, or thing their stuff is better, etc...
10. Telemarketers.  LEAVE ME ALONE.
11.  Crap PCs.  I want a MAC.
12.  Bill Gates.

There's more, but I gotta leave, so think of more later and brb in a bit.

 some pet peeves: 1. Can't stand rude people  :angry7:2. When a person licks their fingers and then puts their hand in my bag of chips or touches my food. 3. I hate it when the last person who ate cereal doesn't roll the bag up inside of the box and allows cereal to get stale. 4. When people do not wash their hands after using the restroom  5. Hate stinky breath  :-X  ...

Another pet peeve - I agree with the "text speak" comment - especially when it runs over into the workplace.  So many people are forgetting how to spell.  In the same vein, I hate it when people write "your welcome" instead of "you're welcome" (you're is the contraction for 'you are').  'Your welcome' actually makes no sense.  I sometimes wonder how some people graduate from high school or college.

i really really hate cleaning up after grown people. thats something that really gets under my skin.

This!  This is perfect!

I also hate it when people automatically try to argue politics and religion with me because of who I am.  Yes, I'm Jewish, and yes I have a degree in political science, but, no, I don't want to explain it all to you, especially the bit about how I don't believe Jesus is the Messiah or why I'm progressive.

Looks like everyone has pretty much the same pet peeves lol. Mine are pretty similar and is a long list, but I am going to name a few.

1. Adults who think others should wait on them hand and foot while they do nothing.
2. Going to get a glass of tea and there is none made not even any brewing on the stove or if there is some on stove waiting to be made it gets ignored.
3. Eating food or gum with mouth open.
4. Toilet seat left up.
5. Others using my stuff with out permission first.
6. Being treated like I do not know what I am talking about.
7. Not being asked about decisions that are made that involve me.
8. People and animals that are abused.
9. People who can not keep their stuff picked up in the common areas.
10. broken PROMISES
