[Archived] Pet Peeves.

[mellison24]

I'll start off.

I hate people who walk slowly in front of me, or try to urge me along if they are quicker than me.

I hate people who say they have a private call on their mobile phone, then either use the speaker or shout into it.

People who sit next to me on the train when there are many other seats available.

Fire away guys. Judging by this board, there must be plenty to go round!

URGH, this frustrates me so much!

chavs who think everyone wants to listen to the shat music on their phones

people who complain when its hot and complain when its cold/raining

[mellison24]

Car alarms (that let you know they are going off by also honking the horn repeatedly) at night. When they wake ME up, you know how loud they are.

And you know when you ask someone a simple, easy, straightforward question and they spend a good, solid ten minutes rambling and droning on about everything that ever happened in the world EXCEPT the answer to your simple, easy, straightforward question? I hate that.

[whittle blue]

Self checkout at the supermarket.

[bazza]

Mellison 24, you seem to hate most things that are fairly normal.

Try going on a series of anger management courses.

I've never been on one myself and I just hate people who are always complaining about trivial matters.

people who make lists of pet peeves

[dulwich]

Putting sweet wrappers back into the tin, so you've got to dig through them.

[Hughesy]

Scum who wear their jeans round their knees

Hate that - it doesnt even look good, so why do they do it?!

Putting sweet wrappers back into the tin, so you've got to dig through them.

Annoys me too.

Neekoy looks like he has OCD though!

People who talk really loud when having a conversation....

People who say 'What' when you know they were listening the first time.....

Chavs walking around with their phones around their necks whilst playing some sh!t song.

People who sit outside drive-throughs and then just dump their litter at the side of their car.

The point of pet peeves is that they are trivial, minor irritations. You mustn't like stand-up comedy then?

Some more:

Business buzz words like synergistic, globalise, paradigm shift etc etc etc.

Forks whose tines don't stand up in a straight line.

Overuse of the word "Like" (chav).

Overuse of the word "Right" (cockney).

Websites with horizontal scrolling.

Failing to take a backpack into account when turning round.

When people trip over their foot in the hallway and start running to pretend like they meant to do it.

[S15]

You.

[mellison24]

And you too, mate

Barbecue restaurants with happy pigs on the sign.

When people on both sides of you in the cinema are using the arm-rests (which one is actually yours?).

People who quote movies just because they can.

People who own the top class cars (Aston Martins, BMWs, Jags, Audis etc etc) and brag about it. Though it's always funny when they can't get up a snowy slope (Usually their own driveway. Idiots).

When people make that horrid noise when they scrape the plate too hard when cutting up food.

I hate it when people have no idea what "personal space" is.

Anti-climactic ends to long lists.

[Blue n White Rover]

You.

Stop bullying him
