    Backhanded compliments.

    When my mother in law sees me on the computer when she gets home from work, plops on the couch and stuffs her face with candy and says "Well what have YOU done all day?" because apparently being on the laptop = not doing a damn thing.

    People who refuse to educate themselves when it comes to easily verifiable things (EG politics). Google is a click away!
    Those who don't believe, for whatever reason, in mental illness or the facets therein. Uhm...what?
    Being skipped over in forums.
    Undeserved arrogance.

    Are you sure we're not related somehow??
    Yes, YES YES YES, yes, and yes!

    Esp the mental illness one, though.

    Rude people - manners cost nothing!
    Spitting - absolutely disgusting!
    People who don't clear their trays in fast food restaurants. YOU HAVE TO WALK PAST ABOUT 5 BINS TO GET OUT!
    Littering - lazy and inconsiderate
    Slow walkers especially when I'm in a hurry!
    Smokers in general
    Smelly people - surely you notice an odour that strong. Take a shower and wash your clothes!
    Excessive advert breaks
    Passive aggressive people - just say what you mean!
    Office politics - I could make my point more succinctly and save time if I didn't have to tiptoe round your dam ego!
    How any decent special offers and deals always contain the phrase "excluding Northern Ireland".
    Insomnia - why wont my mind just shut down and let me rest?

    The last one may well be due to all of the above ;)

    How about people who know I am trying to lose weight and either

    A) comment about the amount of food I'm eating (think lots of veges, fruit, lean protien) "You're NEVER going to lose the weight if you keep eating like that". Meanwhile their lunch consists of a LARGE bag of peanut butter m&m's

    or

    B) go out of their way to bring me a cookie, cupcake, ect. Then comment that "You'll never lose the weight if you don't have a treat every now and then". To them every now and then is EVERY time they walk past the tray!

    When people feel the need to butt in about me picking up my dog's *kitten*.

    I run and hike with my dog so I always tuck one of the little dog poo bags into my shoe. Fits perfectly and I can't even tell that it's there.

    On SEVERAL occasions, I have had people walk by while my dog is doing her business, and ask me how I plan to dispose of it since I don't seem to have a doggy poo bag.

    Then I make them feel very stupid when I pull the bag outta my shoe. Still, it's annoying as hell.

    Mine is twisted telephone cords. But there are hardly any of those left in the world, thanks to cordless phones. So maybe I need a new pet peeve...

    Hey, I just found my new pet peeve! This is so totally annoying! That, and number/amount. And any other obvious grammar issue.

    Oooo, thought of another one. People driving in construction zones who know they need to merge because the lane is ending but continue to drive in it anyway, bypassing everyone doing the right thing. Then they get mad and honk at the people who don't let them in when the lane finally does end. Egocentric jerks. :explode:

    and now to cheer myself up after thinking of that:

    my biggest pet peeves:

    1. people who are talking on their cell phones when you are either going out at a resteraunt with your family or going shopping you can hear their conversation and arguements.

    2. people who act as the Grammar police and point everyone's spelling mistakes don't you guys have anything better to do with your time.

    3. polictical correctness that is a load of crapola and nothing but pure nonsense

    4. my step grandma smacking her dentures when she eats and seeing them slide around as she eats

    5. people who talk non stop only to hear their mouth moving and don't ever have anything worthwhile to say.

    6. people who are self centered don't care about how you are doing instead its me myself and I

    People that drive slow in the left lane on an interstate! There are 4 other lanes, get over! If I want to take that chance and get a ticket for speeding, I want to be able to do just that. Get out of my way!

    I hate when the zipper tab gets wedged in at the bottom of the zipper and I never realize until I already have my pants on; then I have to try and dig it out. Ugh! When will I learn to check before putting them on?:grumble:
