People who misuse words, especially when they're trying to come off as being intelligent.

People who stop at a stop light leaving almost 2 car lengths between them and the car in front of them.

People who eat during meetings because they can. (Similarly, people that chew with their mouth open, making smacking noises and also spitting bits of food particles everywhere.)

People who have an office, yet do not close their door when they decide to take all of their calls on speakerphone. Yes, we get it. You're important.

People that speak unprofessionally in the office or in meetings. ("And, like, so this guy from such-and-such came up here, and whatever, and like totally said that he would like do that thingy, which is like AWESOME, cause I don't wanna like do it, ya know?") (I heard that gem in the office today.)

PEOPLE WHO TYPE LIKE THIS. or lyk thisssssssssss.

People that charge into elevators before I've had the chance to get off, and then give me a look or a huff when I excuse myself to try and get by.

ETA: People blame everyone in this area for being bad drivers- DC drivers cause they don't drive often so are just bad all around, MD drivers because they are CRAZY in speed/no turn signal/cutting people off, and VA for never knowing where they're going. C'est la vie.

People that walk down a sidewalk (or hallway, in the mall, etc) 3 to 4 people across so you can't get by.

My neighbors who never mow or do anything else to their lawn (despite having 3 middle school- and high school-aged boys), so that when we pick up our leaves, theirs blow into ours within a couple of hours, and when we spend weeks trying to eradicate crabgrass, the spores from their full-lawn crabgrass makes it a waste.

Yes, yes, yes.

I had one co-worker who would be on a conference call and leave the door open and the speakerphone on full blast while he went to the bathroom. Funny how when he came back, he would always find his door closed. (He's lucky he didn't also find the phone hung up for him.)

Yep. That, and for me, it's people who use words to make themselves look intelligent, or more intelligent than someone else, when in reality, they are beyond ignorant and stupid (even if they do have a strong vocabulary). I won't even get into any dialogue with morons like that.

eta: When people blame other people for their bad situation or problems. Ex: Blaming an ex because it didn't work out. Complaining because you're in a bad relationship. Blaming someone else for your troubles ignoring the fact that you decide what you allow or disallow.

People who are pompous pricks ( I won't get into any dialogue with people like that, either).
