It drives me crazy when you get in the car, turn my radio on and my favorite song is in the last chorus.

I'm hoping this gets good...I'm in need of some light reading at work...

You know what grinds my gears? The guy or gal in the gym (every gym has one) that HAS to make sounds like they are haivng an orgasm whenever they lift heavy... C'mon, REALLY? Get that **** under control!0

When people don't at least drive the speed limit. Omg!! I can understand if you don't want to speed because you have a warrant or something, but FFS at least do the speed limit!0

People at work who don't know how to flush. And don't know how to get it IN THE BOWL. The women's restroom on my floor is the stuff of legend around here. Port-A-Potties are cleaner.0

When Im on the on-ramp to the highway and Im still doing 45mph by the time I've reached the end of the ramp because the person in front of me is a De-De-DEEEE.....Yup - My Masshole is in full swing then!0

A lady I work with....no matter what you are talking about she butts in and turns every conversation into a story about her dog, her 36 yr old unmarried, ungrateful daughter that still expects her mom to do everything for her or the daughter's dog. I could be taking about my 3 yr old's poop schedule (not that I do, just an extreme example of how she can take over any convo) and with in seconds the story has turned 1 of the above or all 3 and none of it will have anything to do with poop...so annoying!0

Being held up in traffic by some &%##&@ talking on their cell phone. When Im in a wicked mood I will honk while the light is still red. The clown reactively always hits the gas and then slams on the brakes! Ah, the thrill of it just "ungrinds" my gears!0

What grinds my gears is people drivine under the speed limit in the fast lane! I mean really?! There are two other lanes for you to crawl along in turtle mode, get the Frak out of my way!0

When I think I have all the laundry done, only to walk into the bathroom to find a tiny pile of clothes.0

I hate when people get into their own little worlds at the grocery store and completly block the isle. I don't care what you are doing just let me get by!!0

I hate it when someone tells me to smile. I can't smile 24/7 and usually when someone says that it's because I have had a bad day and they just made it worse. Uhh... probably a strange pet peeve but I am always complimented for how much I smile so I know it isn't because I am a grumpy pants. lol.0

When I take the time to clean out the dishwasher for the day and STILL find dirty dishes in the sink! It takes 2 freakin' seconds to open the door and put it in the rack people!!0

This really grinds my gears :
On the street where I live, there are two left hand turn lanes, because of the traffic congestion in the morning, and for buses. But there is no designated right turn. If your turning right you kinda just have to wait until all the lefties turn. Not a big deal, BUT, at 8 at night with no other traffic around, why is there always that one person who decides to turn left in the right hand turn lane? Did you forget how to switch lanes ? Can't figure out that if you turned in the actual left turn lane, then put your blinker on once you turned, and switched lanes you would end up in the same spot? But noooooooo, you have to block the lane for the righties who want to the right ........stupid people.
My tolerance for stupidity is at an all time low.0 -

I was just talking about this one with my boss. You have to pick up speed to merge with the 70 mile an hour traffic people!!! They aren't supposed to slow down for you. Grrr.0 -

This is just great. I would love to see the look on thier face when they realize what they did.0 -
To quote the great, late George Carlin "I don't have pet peeves, I have major psychotic ****ing hatreds"
Most of mine are work-related...I work at McDonalds. Brace yourselves for this list...
1) When people start their order like this "Gimme.....". Rude. How about "I'd like a" or "May I have". Also, if you walk up to the counter and we say "Hello", say Hello back...don't just ignore us and start barking your order. We are humans, not McDonalds robots.
2) Complaining about things the average employee has no control over. Such as prices, policies, the layout of our restaurant or even commercials. B!tch, do I look like the head of marketing? I make 11 dollars and have to wear polyester pants.
3) When people ignore the little dish I've made with my hand and plunk their money on the counter. I know you saw my hand dish! I always take a painstakingly long time to pick up the coins as it makes my rage lessen.
4) People who leave their young kids in the restaurant while they go shopping(my McDonalds is in a Walmart). Are you insane?
5) Talking on a cell phone while you order. If you do this anywhere, you are a bad person. I don't care if you volunteer at an orphanage or save kittens from burning buildings, you are a terrible person.
6) Please and thank you. Just in general, at any place or any time. Have some manners.
I know this makes me sound like a rage-a-holic, but I'm not the only one. I'm convinced working fast food crushes your soul and turns you into a passive-aggressive hate monster.
Stay in school, kids.0 -

I hate the drivers that don't know how to merge so they actually STOP on the on-ramp. WTF!0 -

I worked at a fast food restuarant in college. I sympathize with the hand dish situation! Also, people who would go through the drive-thru in a truck pulling a trailer. They couldn't make the turn, so they had to pull over to the side, park, and walk up to the window. Since you were going to have to park and get out anyway, come inside instead of blocking the drive-thru!0 -
Nothing. The world is all sunshine, butterflies, and rainbows.0
