    what about when your driving and planning to turn into a parking lot. the car in front of you turns in as well, then STOPS to figure out where they are i guess. hello!!! you are making the rest of us have to stop dead in the middle of a lane and setting us up to be rear ended! :explode:

    People who wear a ton of cologne or perfume to the gym! (I need to breathe in there, folks.)

    Men in baggy shorts on a recumbant bike. (My eyes! My eyes!!)

    Cardio-machine HOGS!

    Three women at my gym, CARIDO MACHINE HOGS!!!

    Does 30 minutes constitute a hog? I get to the gym at 6 (when it opens) and feel like I have to rush to get in there so I can get one of the 3 ellipticals (there are like 5 of us who use them at that time of the day)- and then I feel guilty when I go for 30 minutes - I can almost guarantee they don't.

    I'd say 30 minutes is fine. :smile:

    The people who only look ONE WAY before turning across lanes of traffic!! There are TWO lanes and cars are coming from BOTH directions. This happened the other day, and both another car and I were REALLY close to this woman who was looking the opposite direction before she zoomed out of a SCHOOL PARKING LOT. The woman to my right had to swerve into my lane and I had to swerve onto the curb of the median. Too bad my horn isn'y very loud. :explode:

    Right at this minute, my pet peeve is the car across the street whose horn/alarm keeps going off. It's been doing it for 2 HOURS! Come on people! :explode:

    This is my pet peeve with my husband, he closes EVERY door in the house and leaves on ALL the lights!!!!

    I hate it when I am watching a movie for the first time w/someone who has already seen it and they tell me everything that is about to happen.
    People who talk during a movie!

    I just had a big list on my mind, and I forgot them so I guess I will have to come back later! Sorry.

    i HATE HATE HATE when I go into a bathroom with like 6 stalls. I go to a stall, do my business, while another person comes in and goes into the stall right next to me. HELLO?? THERE ARE OTHER STALLS.


    I also hate when people talk on the phone WHILST in the bathroom :angry:

    thats a licence to have a poop-pep-talk with yourself.

    (in the voice of fat *kitten*) "What? Corn? I didnt eat any corn!"


    Pet peeve #377 of oh so many: people who drive 25 in a 45. Just... get... off... the... road...

    Why does it have to be the really loud snot snort? I hate to hear the bubbly sniffley sound every 15 seconds! I'll pointedly stare at the kid (it's always one of our kids, lol), and when they don't notice the stare of death, I add in a cough.... And when they don't notice the stare of death/cough combo, I break down and ask if they need to blow their nose. Of course they need to blow their stinkin' nose, they are sniffling the runny snot back in every couple of seconds. It always kills me because they tell me they don't need to go blow. I give them two more sniffs (with the death stare) before telling them to go blow their nose or leave the room because they are bugging me.

    People who pull/run out in front of my car. Dangerous enough as it is, but I'm a learner. Do L plates not give a fair warning? Sure, I'm about to take my test and *I* know I can do a mean emergency stop- but do they? No. What's wrong with waiting the few seconds for me to pass before leaping to a possible death? And it's REALLY not good for my car :grumble:

    Cyclists who run zebra crossings and red lights. You're on the road, obey the rules of said road. And get OFF the footpath when there's a perfectly good cycle path right THERE. I am not target practise, thank you.

    OH!!! Another one :angry:

    My fiance does this and thinks it's hilarious whack.gif

    When someone leaves like 2 squares of toilet paper on the roll and doesn't change it.....leave it for the next person..:explode:

    My roommate does that! And then one time I was running late and didn't change it and she yelled at me!

    How's abouuuutttttt.........when people warm something up in the microwave and take it out before the timer goes off and don't hit stop/reset to clear out the time remaining to cook :grumble: Or worse yet.........they don't even close the microwave door all the way :angry: (someone did that here at work BTW....I went to warm up my lunch and stupid people :glasses: cook food, don't reset the timer, and left door partially open) :grumble:

    That is all.......th_smalldancingman.gif






    for now th_muahaha.gif

    haha I hate that too! My person that is in the office with me does it ALL the time, so I can see the microwave from my desk and I see the numbers on there flashing and the microwave saying "Press Start" and it's like! You shouldn't even open the microwave w/out hitting stop first in reality!!! Is it that hard?:grumble:

    I hate when (my bf) leaves something on the counter, trash in particular, and he passes the trashcan on the way out! WTF? :huh: Too big of a job!!

    When you finally get a turning light and the car in front stops mid intersection because they think that it is just a normal green light. It's a turning signal.. why would it be there if it had the same purpose as a green light.. it means it's safe to turn.. the on coming traffic has a red light not a green light..

    Oh and another one, has nothing to do with people, but watching a movie or a t.v. show and something is off with the cable and the mouths don't match with the talking.. By far most annoying thing to watch! I watched a show today on my laptop and the sound was 4 seconds behind the video.

    People who assume that the reason who are working for minimum wage is that you're stupid. I'm a cashier not a 2 year old. I'm here to pay for my college.

    Buy your fifty pounds of M&Ms and get out of my face!!!

    People who answer cell phones in a meeting

    People who do not switch phone to vibrate before a meeting

    People who scroll through their BlackBerry under the desk while you are trying to have a conversation.
