What's your biggest pet peeve? List them all!?

Question

Mine are:
1)When people park thier SUV's in a parking space that is clearly marked, "compact".
2. When idiots rush into an elevator without letting those who need to get out first.
3. When idiots park in the middle of the street to have a long conversation.
4. when idiots walk around talking on ther walkie talkie cell phones.
5. When jackasses let their children run around scream in a waiting area or a place that is meant to be quiet.
6.Ghetto people who think they got class just because they drive a C230 mercedes benz.
7. People who when spoken to in English, simply smile and nod their head even though they have no clue what one is saying. Come on now. I'm sure anyone would understand if they simply reply, " no ingles" right?
Don't you hate it when you keep on going thinking that they are understanding what you are saying?

Answer 1

1. Driving and using a cell phone simultaneously.

2. Bluetooth headsets. They look ridiculous.

3. People who don't pick up after their dogs.

4. Young kids who take up smoking. It doesn't make them look cool; it makes them look stupid.

5. Sex in entertainment. I don't care if it sells; it's just plain wrong. Our whole society is sexualized now.

6. Guys who wear button-down shirts, a sport coat, and a pair of jeans. I don't care if it's "in," it looks stupid.

7. Guys who wear sandals and jeans. That also looks stupid.

8. Hollywood...enough said. Those people are so displaced from reality that it's nauseating. Please don't get me started on Angelina Jolie adopting Asian kids and not doing a darn thing about the millions of American foster kids here (not to say that adopting kids from foreign countries is a bad thing, though).

9. Being sick. You can't go out and do anything except lay in bed and watch TV.

10. Apple iPods. What a waste of money. They're nothing but overpriced junk.

I have more but it would take forever to list them all.

Answer 2

1. Voice mail.
2. The stinking menus that businesses have that say: Press 1 if you speak English. Press 2 if you speak Swahili, Press 3 if you want to speak to a robot.
3. When a cashier sneezes a really phlegmy sneeze then hands you your change.
4. People who yak in their cars when they're driving when they should be paying attention to their driving.
5. People who cough and don't cover their mouths.
6. Tailgaters, especially the ones that ride right up your a**.
7. When the driver in front of you doesn't use his turn signal.
8. People who don't know the rules of the road.
9. People who go thru the express line in the grocery store with 20 items.
11.When a person standing behind you in line, bumps your heel bone with their cart. (It hurts like hell if you're wearing sandals.
12. People who block the aisles in the grocery store flappin' their jaws.
13. People who have diahrrhea of the mouth--- who never shut up and blab about the most inane bs.
14. Customer service people with poor communication skills.
They cut in and try to take control of the conversation without waiting for you to finish your question so they can hear themselves talk. If they stopped flappin' their jaws so much, maybe the queus wouldn't be so long and you wouldn't have to wait 10 minutes to talk to someone.
15. People who let their small children dictate what cereal to pick out and the stupid parent actually has a discussion about it, reasoning with a 4 year old.
16. People who walk in the middle of the road or across the street when a car is going 40 or 50 mph so that the driver actually has to stop, because some moron decides he wants to know what it feels like to be hit by a car, just for the hell of it.
17. People who call you hon, or honey or sweetee. They know it's condescending but it really says more about their mentality and level of education than anything else.
and finally,
18. People who come to the U.S. to live and don't learn to speak English.

Answer 3

i reallly hate drivers that honk / get in such a hurry. it's soo funny when they make a big deal / pull around you and then you both end up side by side at a red light. i have actually pointed at the red light / and then clapped my hands and cheered to make a point to the other driver how obnoxious i think their behavior is. i mean i have a responsibility to drive the speed limit. why should i exceed the limit, risk a ticket / accident just because this "person" couldn't leave their house five mins earlier so they would not have to be in such a rush in traffic. irrr ..... just my big peeve!

supppose i have others . being in the grocery store and people speeding up to get their cart in line first.

i hate when i see coworkers go in the bathroom and not wash their hands. it changes the way i think of them , is something i don't forget even though i would like too.

i hate when i go through an i pass and then get a letter from the toll / state saying that i have a ticket cause the i pass didn't work and they got a pic of the license plate. it takes several phone calls / letters to fix the mistake. a waste of my time .

i hate when i go through a fast food restaurant such as McDonalds and they make you wait for the food and then still get the order wrong. it's like this is supposed to be fast food right ?

Answer 5

There is not enough room to list them all. Sadly, if people would be considerate instead of inconsiderate, there would be no reason to have to list anything. Here are the top pet peeves.
1) people talking on their cell phone while in public.
2) people pulling out in front of you, and than drives slowly.
3) people who do not use their turn signals and or, the turning lane.
4) people who let their children run around in public places.
5) people who eat food out of the container and than hands it to the cashier to ring up.
6) people who use the express lane with a cart full of groceries.
7) people that leave urine or feces on the toilet seat.
8) men that leave the toilet seat up
9) people that do not fill up the ice cube tray and put it in the freezer if they use the last one.
10) people that do not put toilet paper on the roller if they use up the last roll.
11) people that wait until all the groceries to be rang up before they start writing their checks.
12) people who don't have enough money to pay for all their groceries, and the things they put back are the things that need to be thrown away, examples: milk, meat, frozen goods etc., but keep the clothes, cds, dvds, etc.....
13) people who are on public assistance who don't have enough money on their ebt cards to pay for their purchases and the things they put back are the things that need to be thrown away such as the milk, meat, and frozen goods, and the things they keep are pop, chips, candy, and snack items. ( just to let you know i do Not disrepect these customers, but think they should use the money more wisely.)
14) customers that think they are the only one in the whole store spending money!!
15) customers who are rude to fellow customers or the help.
16) customers who do not read the pricing lable correctly and get mad if they are charged the correct price. ( yes folks, don't just look at the price, read the whole label so you know what the price is for. that means the size and everything!)
17) customers that hand me something to be rang up that they let their child chew on throughout the store.
18) customers that let their child hold a toy or any merchandise throughout the whole store, and than tell the cashier they don't want it when they checkout. ( You parents know who i am talking about. than you wonder why your children start screaming in the checkout lanes.)
19) customers that hand me coupons that are expired or clearly state "on two" and wonder why they can't use them. ( "on two" by the way, does not mean a twin pack, it means two products.
20) customers that yell at or are rude to the cashier because they could not find what they were looking for, or because they don't want to walk to " the other side of the store" to get.
21) customers that buy something, and clearly misuse it so that it breaks or no longer works, and demands a refund. ( Again, you customers know who you are. You scratched your dvd, spilled liquid on your electronic item, used metal utinsils on your nonstick pans, etc.......and than have the gall to want a replacement or refund.)
22) customers that interrupt me while i am helping another customer. (give me a minute and i will be happy to help you)
23) customers that don't put their groceries on the belt in the checkouts together. example: all the meat, all the cold foods, all the cleaning supplies, all the clothing, all the produce and fruit. etc... ( do you really want me to put raid in with your meat??)
24) customers that put cases of pop, cat litter, etc. on the bottom of the cart with the upc # upside down and expect me to come over, pick it up, and than scan it. ( if you don't want to pick it up at the checkout stand, at least have the upc # visible.)

there are plenty more, but you get the drift.
thanks for letting me vent. lol.
