Oh, I've got tons, but these are some of the biggies:
* Hair in the sink
* Hairs stuck in the soap
* Leaving trash lying around the house (like packaging for batteries, or the foil seal from the aspirin bottle, or tags off new clothing just sitting on the counter) instead of putting it directly in the trash
* Not fully closing a cabinet door or drawer after you've removed what you needed
* People who answer/talk on cell phones while sitting in a restaurant or in a public restroom
* People who habitually use an incorrect word or pronunciation of a word (like saying "ideal" when they mean "idea")
* Not putting things back in their place so you can't find them the next time you need them (scissors, flashlight, tape, etc.)
* Hanging hangers backwards on the rod

I only have two "real" pet peeves:
1. When drivers do not use thier turn signals when turning or merging.
2. When people are talking and use bad grammer for various reasons (laziness, trying to act cool, trying to act/speak smarter then what they are, etc). Ex: "I ain't got no money!"
There are other things that I don't like or can't stand but I get over it after the matter.

1. Lazy people who use the excuse "times have changed" when it comes to proper etiquette.
2. Bad manners (see #1) in any situation including at home.
3. Incorrect spelling and bad grammar.
4. People who do not know the difference between assertive and b-tchy.
5. People who use the terms like "B" as if it's an endearment. It is a female dog; the definition has not changed. In polite company, it is still profanity.
6. Profanity & vulgarity.

1. I cannot stand the sounds of chewing. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Or when people slurp their drinks/soups.
2. I also hate it when people call my cell phone and ask me "Who is this?!!" instead of maybe telling me it's a wrong number or that I might have called them.
