My Pet Peeve is...
When people don't ask for, but DEMAND directions. This is fairly common here in New York. Instead of "Excuse me , Can you please tell me where Main Street is?" It's like..."Hey! You! Where's Main Street?!?" (This is said in the most rudest way possible.) If you take too long to think about it, they stare at you in disbelief as if you're the stupidest individual they have ever encountered (as if you're wasting their time). God forbid you don't know where Main Street is...then their like " MAIN STREET! You don't know where Main Street is ""> ?" And before you can respond, they shake their head and walk away. They stop someone else and start the process over, during which time, especially if this person knows where Main Street is, they nod over in your direction as if pointing out to them what a total loser you are for not knowing. I'm like...OHHH! Did you say Main Street? Main Street is right up my *ss!
