    when i was a nanny, that used to piss me off... also when your kid is in the sand box and some douchy kid whose parents or nanny are not watching, comes over and hits him on the head.. i so wanted to discipline that kid!

    parents that dont parent..

    also, people that have pets and those pets have a serious medical emergency and the dog mom says "oh i'll just watch it for now" grrr!

    I can't stand it when people turn (driving their car) going like 2 miles an hour...give it a little gas honey...also, I hate it when people don't use their headlights when it's raining/ dark/ foggy...especially those blue gray cars that blend in with the sky and road...also, when people drive 5 miles under the speed limit in the fast/ left hand lane...ugh...Being a full time student at 2 colleges, working full time, volunteering, and squeezing in time to exercise, I just don't have 5 minutes to waste because stupid people drive so dang slow...ok, I feel better now :blushing:

    On a similar line... Pet Lovers who have so many pets they can't give them all the attention they need.

    ... when people use there phones at the movie theater, even for a so called emergency. I have never heard anything that would even remotely count

    and if you post your "movie phone emergency" and it does not involve the president calling you for the code to launch a nuclear war or a dead child, I will mock you. :laugh: :devil:

    When people cut their fingernails in public. It's disgusting.

    Also, when people chew with their mouth open. Or talk with their mouth full.

    I have to agree with the "parents that dont parent" as my number 1 pet peeve

    to add to the list of pet peeves:

    the crazy exgf (my husband's of course) that will be in my life forever because there is a child involved

    witnessing people mistreat thier kids

    people that litter

    asking for a glass of something and getting it back half full (I'm always really thirsty and I wasn't just pretending when I asked for the glass of something)

    All of the above...and, I'd like to add those people who are stopped at a light and don't move with the traffic because they are too busy on their cellphone or texting to realize the traffic is MOVING!!!!

    Also, going down the slide is boring. I always went up.

    ugh, and the opposite when I ask for a chip, or fry, or strawberry, or just a single bite of something and then they give you the whole plate/bowl/serving

    I JUST WANT ONE!

    I can't stand when people are sitting at a red light in front of me with no turn signal on, then the light turns green and they turn their left turn signal on, and I have to sit and wait for them to be able to make the turn because it's too late to go around them. Thanks for the heads up, d-bag.

    I also HATE HATE HATE people who don't pull over for blue flashing lights when it's safe for them to do so. I'm not suggesting you pull off into a ditch to let someone with a blue light go by you, but that person is responding to an EMERGENCY. It could be YOUR house burning down or YOUR loved one in danger, so get the f*** out of the way. That's a big one for me. First responders deserve the utmost respect on the road and elsewhere.

    when on the highway, people who suddenly slow down because there's a cop who pulled someone else over..do you really think the cop will suddenly abandon their current person to get you??

    and then people who slow down when a siren of some sort is driving down the OPPOSITE side of the highway...are they going to go-go-gadget on to your side??

    When you leave just a swallow of juice or any other type of drink in the fridge"FINISH THE DAMN THING"
    When ppl ask you for a lighter when they are smokers" GET YOUR OWN?"
    When going through the drive thru and they screw up your order all the time" MCDONALDS IS NOTORIOUS FOR THIS"
    When going to a "FAST FOOD" restaurant and it takes more than 10mins to get your food"

    people who don't use turn signals, who almost merge into me, who think they own the road, people who cut me off and people, and especially people who think they can race me.

    we have this giant hill, more like a mountain, and these giant diesel trucks try to pass me when I'm already doing the speed limit. it pisses me off because once you get to where the road becomes single lane, they won't be able to hold half the speed limit. :l so then I'm stuck in 2nd gear at 3000rpms. GRRR!

    People who pop gum.

    People who constantly hack. I work in an office with a bunch of old geezers who do this all day....go to a damn ENT already!

    People who don't walk on the right-hand side of the sidewalk, hallway, etc

    People that chew with their mouth open

    I'll think of more later...

    Not necessarily, but it is the law to pull over on both sides of the road.

    Bah! You beat me to it!

    Oh and people that don't use their turn signals when changing lanes or turning. Seriously, how hard is it to flip that switch?!

    Not in every state it isn't. In PA we aim to run people over, in TX you need to pull over into a different lane or slow down to 5mph. In NJ you speed up and throw soda cans. I hear in Detroit, they throw octopi.
