I think I have more pet peeves than anyone alive. But honestly, who raised these people?? I'm 20 and I feel like an old lady sometime because all I can think is, "Where ARE their manners?"

The driving in Lexington is attrocious. On a regular basis people will:
-drive below the speed limit then brake check me when I'm only trying to remind them that it's not 25, it's 45
-not using blinkers, causing me to have to wait an extra 5 minutes before I can turn onto a road
-turn from not the turning lane, but the regular traffic lane (this one has seriously happened to me 3 times in the past year!)

If I can hear a person chewing AT ALL (whether it's gum or food), my stomach will literally turn and I have to move away. It's disgusting, close your mouth.

People need to dress appropriately for their size!! Low rise jeans aren't for everyone (I don't wear them and I'm a size 2). Very very very few people should be allowed to show any belly at all, it's just gross. I have literally seen people walking to class that have their butt hanging out of their skirts.. won't they stick to the seats?

I hate people who stand too close to me.. don't invade my little bubble!

Misbehaving children are the worst, especially when you're stuck near them in a plane. This past month, I was flying up to CT and a toddler was SCREAMing the entire time. It wasn't a scared cry or anything, he was just doing it out of boredom and the mother didn't say a word to him ONCE. What are parents thinking?
