Pet peeves...things that really bug you
What are some of your pet peeves...those things which totally irk you?
1. Tardiness - I never understood the concept of being fashionably late to things. Why bother telling people something is going to start at so and so time if it isn't going to start then? I am usually prompt to everything and the idea of keeping someone waiting is not in my dictionary. And I don't like to be kept waiting either unless it were a very extenuating circumstance. Once in a while is ok but if tardiness is a constant habit that's really annoying. And if the guy is late on a first date..that's even more irksome. 2. Cell phones & pagers on alert mode in movies, theaters, class, church, etc. - There are reasons why these forms of technology have a silent mode. Use 'em! Gosh. We all know that at least one will go off no matter how many courtesy warnings are given out. And when I'm on a date with someone, if his cell goes off (unless he's on call or something) it gets to me, especially if we're not meeting up with his friends or something where he would need to have it on. 3. Interruptions while watching tv, movies, etc. - Just leave me in peace. Got questions about the movie or wondering what's going to happen next out loud? Just watch it and the answer will come to you! Or pay more attention. I can never watching anything in peace at home because my parents and/or brother will always be yapping in the background and I can't hear anything. |
I agree with the tardiness issue.

People that root for certain colleges that have little to no affiliation with said college and feel justified in talking smack to alumni of other schools.
If you didn't pay the money or spend the time to attend said college, you ain't a husker, longhorn, sooner, etc. no matter which way you slice it. Kitso KS 361 |
What really annoys me is when I go to a movie and people are taking. They didn't spend $10+ to talk, but to see a movie. They should leave their VCR manners at home!

I HATE tardiness more than anything.
I also detest co-dependence in everybody, but especially women. Come on, get an identity that isn't your boyfriend/husband's! :mad: |
-Slow driver on fast lane
-Show traders that write on the disc -show traders that trade MP3 source and say it isn't -Ditto on tardiness -People that eat with their mouth open, yuck |
Dirty old men

1. Being Late
2. Going 30 mph on a highway entrance ramp (also going slow in the left lane) 3. Pompous Doctors at work who think they can harrass the nurses - blech 4. Alabama fans tee hee - those poor mislead souls - also fans that talk s*** like their #1 when their team isn't even ranked :rolleyes: 5. Stupid people in general |
People who don't return phone calls...or call me and leave that beeping message at 6am (I swear to god someone thinks my number is a fax machine)
Broken promises SUV's that tail me...epsecially in the snow. People who mooch...I have this friend and she's got money issues yet she'll want me to pay her back for the beer but I've bought her lunch and dinner and other things without expecting the same in return and at work: People who lick their fingers to get their rings off (buhhhhhh) :eek: |
i still dont get why so many radford people hate tech so much.. my brother went to school there and i actually say what a nice campus it is everytime people talk about it.. it really is pretty..
but anyways.. my pet peeves are.. when people get in the right hand lane that arents making a right and sit at the light.. when they could have gotten in the left and let everyone behind them turn right who wanted to... i agree with the going 30 mph on a ramp.. its suppose to be an area to get up to speed with the cars on the highway.. whats worse is when they get to the end of the ramp freak and hit their breaks causing everyone behind them trying to merge to almost get into an accident.. people who make comments every ten seconds in a class or presentation (like they know more than the teacher or presenter about a subject) why are you there if you think you know more.. i dont like stupid people either.. i get annoyed very easily with them.. bad trait of mine.. |
I HATE tardiness! I always try to be on time or even early if I can.
I agree with whoever said that about rooting for the teams you have absolutely no ties to. It seems that a LOT of people root for Notre Dame who not only didn't go there, but didn't go ANYWHERE! Rude people. Hate 'em. I'm never rude to someone who isn't rude to me first and if everyone operated that way the world would be much nicer :) |

Over-actors and tv sitcoms where the actors all talk the same?
Over-actors==== Raven! UGH if I had a friend who was THAT much of a spaz, I'd kill her. Gilmore Girls=== they all talk the same Anyone ever notice that? Plus, people who are always late. The world doesn't revolve around YOU! |

People who don't listen. I don't want to have to repeat myself over and over. It's not forgetfulness it's plain ignorance. If you don't care, don't keep asking me about it!! Stupid people that stand right at the door of the subway during rush hour looking for somewhere to sit down!! Look people you're not going to find a seat so don't bother looking!! Just get on the car and move in because there are 50 million other people behind you waiting to get on! Also the stupid people that won't let other passengers off!! Aww hell...stupid people in general, no... rather ignorant people. Common sense...it works so well...let's all try to use it, shall we? |
-Tardiness
-People who are college-age and their parents completely pay for everything. Unless you are on a full-ride, there is no reason you can't get a job like the rest of us. And don't say "my major is too hard." Because I did it, and several of my friends who were pre-med did it. You just have to manage your time wisely. And no, I'm not jealous. I'm glad my parents taught me responsibility. I'm doing pretty damn good for a 23 year old! -Fake people. -Clutter and disorganization. I like things to be neat and I have a tendancy to want to organize everything. Really, I'm a nice person. :D I'm just opinionated! |
My #1 thing is when people touch my stuff without asking me. I hate it. I feel like the older brother on "Home Alone"..."Don't touch my stuff!"
And my #2 thing (but it's close)--when people call me multiple times a day for no reason whatsoever. If you really want to bug the living daylights out of me, do that. Aaaaarrrrgggghhh! Don't keep calling me just to be calling when I've already spoken to/seen you earlier, because I hate talking on the phone. :p |

Shallow people
Perverted people who IM me and get pissed when I don't want to see their nasty cam Tardiness Excessive noise |
*People who talk a long time or post long posts...that is boring...and then get mad at me for not paying attention. If it's entertaining I don't mind long talks or posts.
*People who talk about irrelevant stuff or mundane stuff like what kind of toothpaste they used when they brushed their teeth that morning. *Old people who walk up to me while I'm eating lunch to tell me their life story. :eek: *Strangers period telling their life stories. *STRANGERS OR PEOPLE I JUST MET WHO WANTS TO KNOW MY LIFE STORY! :mad: *When people ask me how do I FEEL about something, I'll tell you what I think, but NOT how I feel. *When people WHO I BARELY KNOW wants to hug or kiss me. I'll settle for a handshake. *Speaking of handshakes, as much as I am anti touchy feely, I give firm handshakes...I expect everyone else to do the same, don't shake my hand like a little girl. :rolleyes: *WHEN PEOPLE EXPECT FOR ME TO CHANGE THINGS ABOUT ME THAT I CANNOT! :mad: |
People in customer service positions who are rude to you, without any reason whatsoever. I just chalk it up to the fact that they're miserable in their jobs and they take it out on the customers. But it's not my problem you work there, so be nice, I'm the customer!

Perverted people who IM me and get pissed when I don't want to see their nasty cam
Tardiness Excessive noise Damn right about those!!!!! I dont like people who generally do not pick up after themselves and leave napkins and dishes all over the living room in my house......I dont like people coming into my bathroom and using/moving/touching my stuff---i like it in MY order.........oh and i think the biggest and nastiest pet peeve we can all relate to are fucking morons that for some damn reason dont feel the need to flush the fucking toilet!!!! Excuse my language here, but it's ridiculous behavior! |
*Pop ups. No explanation needed.
*People who think that knowing the path you're on means that you're narrow minded. *Vegans who think they are morally superior. (yeah, and what about those leather shoes?) *People who call but don't say anything. *Doctors who make you wait more than 10 minutes! *People who chew gum in such a way that anyone can tell. *"Loud eaters" |
*really really loud cell phone ringers
*cell phones ringing in the middle of movies/plays/concerts/etc *people who answer their cell phone in such places, or in church (yes, i've witnessed that, sadly) *when people chew with their mouth open *people who flash their brights at you when they want to pass you like you should move simply because they drive like an idiot *vegetarians who try to guilt trip non-vegetarians. it gives the rest of us a bad name. *shallow people *when people put their life story in their AIM away message or MSN name -- especially if it includes something really petty indirectly aimed at someone, like, "SOME people should..." bah, I can't even think on that level... *mullets *clapping between movements of a piece at a concert. read the program!! *people who don't have any control over their kids and let them run screaming around stores |

bad tippers. Tip me based on the service, please. And don't think I don't remember you next time you come in. I do. And I told your waiter what you left me last time.
guys who think a girl having a bad day is a "bitch"... and a flirtatious girl is a "slut." girls who think every guy is prey. MY boyfriend. Mine. people who act like my dog's going to attack. Keep it up and I'll TEACH her. |

this probably annoys me more than anything on earth. there are either the one that never use the turn signal or the ones who turn it on five min. before making a turn. drives me up the wall. |
Big irritation right now...
My father's romantic advice - if he tells me one more time that I have to "take it slow" with the new guy I started seeing in August, I'm going to scream. That's all Dad ever says about anything. Since I live in Gainesville, adn the guy lives 2 hours away in Orlando across the street from my busybody aunt, and the few weekends this semester I get to come home I stay at my parent's house, I don't really have much choice to take it slow! And if he's talking about taking it slow emotionally, that's junk. You can't control your feelings. You'd think they'd be happy that I found a great guy with nice manners, a well-paying job, good morals, no drug habits (unlike the last loser pothead boyfriend), etc. Great personality, but cute enough that you don't have to say "Well, he has a great personality." ;) This guy literally might just be Mr. Right, as much as it freaks me out to say that. He is the kind of guy that every girl dreams of dating, the kind you'd want to set up with your best friend. The really annoying thing is that he didn't say "take it slow" when I was with the pothead guy. True, I didn't tell my parents about the drug stuff, but there's no way in hell that any reasonable parent would prefer the last boyfriend I had to the new one. Ok, I also don't like: Spam email and telemarketers. People who think all lawyers are scumbags and the few lawyers who actually are scumbags and make the rest of us look bad. People who act like all Republicans are evil racist pigs. Extremists in the feminist movement who attack you if you want to do things like join a sorority, get married, or have babies. The laundry facilities at my apartment complex (the dryers suck!). The current head coach (Ron Zook) and offensive coordinator (Ed Zaunbrecher) of the Gators football team. Those idiots are ruining our football team. www.fireronzook.com!!!!! My old cell phone company, US Cellular. My contract finally ended in early September after a year of erroneous charges, hidden fees, rude customer service, crappy reception, and other problems. I'm just now getting everything straightened out and they still owe me a couple bucks. The fact that teachers have one of the hardest, most important jobs ever, and they're paid pretty darn close to nothing. The job requires a college degree, but 1st year teachers in FL can qualify for food stamps! |
U need anger management!

"blank checkbook register"-Hello? I didn't know that there was an option here... * People who don't return phone calls. * Jelous people * Possesive people * People that don't know how to fill out a deposit slip.. :rolleyes: * People that get scared in a relationship cause they have fallen for you and don't want to get hurt, so they start pulling away... * Wearing stich letters to the BAR/CLUB, seriously last night I was drugged to the country bar/club and there was a AOII and a Beta in STICH letters... Did they not have time to do laundry? They seemed like alums too... * People who ask too many personal questions, If I want you to know, I will tell you... * ROAD Rage... A guy tried to kill my boyfriend and I on I-65 3 weeks ago.. T-Boneing us on the passengers side and trying to run us into the concrete barrier.... * People who say one thing and do another... * Girls who go through recruitment looking like they are going to "Club Sorority", Look classy, not trashy.... okay, im done :D |
i cannot stand seeing the abercrombie minis at school on girls who probably couldnt wait to turn 18 to put it on.

Here are my pet peeves from a previous thread:
My pet peeves are: 1) Crumbs in bed! 2) Monkeys in commercials 3) People who schmack and slurp their food! UGH! 4) People who feel the need to be positive ALL the time and then chastize you if you aren't! I HAVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE A PISSY DAY! 5) Spitting 6) Drivers who: *leave their blinkers on *won't let you into traffic when you signal to get over *go around you if you get in front of them * act as if the speed they are driving is okey dokey for you too! SPEED UP OR MOVE THE "F" OVER!!! 7) People who don't wipe their sweat off of the circuit machines at the gym 8) Guys who wear cologne to the gym! ACK! 9) People who hack and cough and sniff and DON'T TAKE CARE OF IT!! BLOW YOUR G*D DAMM NOSE OR TAKE A FRIGGIN' COUGH DROP!! 10) Excessive perfume!! 11) People who say "Tri Sig"! It's Tri Sigma or Sigma, THANK YOU! 12) Nosy people...Why do you need to know??? HMM!?! 13) STARING! WTF are you looking at?! 14) Poor grammar, both spoken and written.... 15) Girls who wear jewelry/makeup to work out...Who the hell are you trying to impress? Let me just tell you...If that Tiffany charm bracelet goes flying and you don't notice, IT'S MINE! 16) People who think that, just because you don't like what they like, something is inherently wrong with you! FACE IT, BUCKO, I DON'T LIKE SEAFOOD! DEAL!!! 17) People who eat while talking to me on the phone 18) People who complain about being broke, yet seem to have the cash necessary to buy 5-6 new DVD's/CD's every week!?!?! SHUT UP! Guess you'll have to live in a house made up of jewel cases soon! 19) People who won't agree to make plans...Instead, they say "Let me let you know..." Um, if you have the time free, and I asked you first, you say yes or no! You don't wait to see if something better comes along, that's FUKKED UP!!!! 20) People who gossip behind your back, yet act as if they have nothing against you when you are around. If you have a problem with me, say it. Don't use passive aggressive BULL$#IT to get your point across b/c half the time it won't work! OK, think I'm done for now :D |
People, who when they call me, don't say "hello", or " how are you doing" but instead just start into their conversations.
hypocrites Doctors that don't treat you like patients but as objects. I once had a doctor that told another Doc "Look what I got to work on today" |
grammer is a big one for me.
people who say "literally" improperly, ie "I was literally walking on air!" people who say "irregardless" roommates who leave their sh*t in the drying rack for days, rather than just put it away. |
