My biggest pet peeve is people who respond to questions posed on Yahoo Answers with unnecessarily long, wordy, verbose answers that involve lengthy and convoluted sentences, when a more concise, briefly written answer that does not drag on as long as the more wordy, unnecessarily verbose answers do, would be more than satisfactory in answering the question asked on Yahoo Answers which has been submitted for answering by another party using Yahoo Answers with the intent that they might somehow receive some good and helpful information in reply to their question that might benefit them or someone they are in some way concerned about in some tangible manner.

Young snotty people that don't take advantage of the
"Good ole day stories" available. A lot can be learned if you listen instead of whinning....! I just wrote that cause I saw Steve D's answer! lol
My biggest pet peeve is junk mail...even after you call these people and tell them not to send any more junk...onward more comes on a daily basis.

The "good old days". I.e., the people who think that somehow in the past everything was sweetness and light, people looked out for each other, politicians were honest, children respected their parents, customer service was super friendly, everyone in cars waved, etc.
What a bunch of hooey.
Human nature doesn't change, and people have always gotten away with whatever they can. Civilization just gets better and better mostly. There is less violence, corruption, disease, etc. than in the past. On the whole we're living in the best world that's ever been, people and human nature included.

I think I have a couple, but I tend to be OCD sometimes so I do not like it when things are out of order straight. I also do not like it when people waste materials things: use too many napkins when they only need 2, serve themselves a glass of juice and through half away and they knew they only wanted half, serve themselves a plate of food and eat half, write a dot on a paper by mistake and through it away instead of using white or skipping a line..I laugh sometimes, because it's a little crazy but I don't get mad easily or for a long time...

People who don't use their turn signals, especially when they're exiting a parkingl lot onto a street or highway. You can't tell if they're going to pull out in front of you go the oppositie direction.
On a more personal level, I can't stand when two people are whispering to each other while looking over at another person. You know they're talking about the 3rd person. I just think it's rude as hell.

Butchery of the Americanese language. Now I'm not speaking about slang or varying colloquialisms I'm talking about what the heck is "credick" and "musitt"? Don't you mean "credit" and "music"? And how do artists, tests, and texts become "artisses", "tesses", and "texxes"? And how the heck can s-h-r-i-m-p be pronounced "skrimp"? And more importantly, how can "specific" be pronounced as the ocean that splashes of the beaches of California?!!
That's my peeve dude.

It's so hard to chose just one....It depends on what is in my face at the moment... this morning; it was a "younger" mother at the gas station/liquor store, getting her large bottle of beer, cigarettes.... and the whole time she is carrying a baby, and dragging a toddler by the hand.... little one asked for a 25cent granola bar... mom says " NO, Stop bugging me, I'm broke!" But she had an extra dollar for her lottery ticket? I could have taken those kids right there!

Public or business entry way doors that are locked. Usually there are two side by side doors, and one is always locked. I think people entering and exiting the building should have access to a separate door.

People that say the word "WHATEVER" without saying anything else, just to have the last word or like they really told somebody something.
When in reality saying that word by itself just shows the ignorance of the person saying "whatever" by opening up their mouth because they are not smart or clever enough to say anything else. It just takes away all doubt.

Mean, self-centered people who complain about the world, their towns or schools, but do nothing to help solve the problem!!
