    So mine are

    people that slop their mouths when they it, its completely disgusting;
    people who snore the sound just goes through me;
    people who are really condescending and rude; please and thank you are really important to me;
    people who feel like they are the victim "oh poor me" and they do nothing about it;
    people who sit on their fat bums and expect that they should have nice things; well go out an earn it, its called hard work;
    people who constantly accept and excuse bad behaviour from kids; its not okay for your kid to throw sand over adults; its not okay or funny if your kid screams in the supermarket because you said no to the kinder egg, the doughnuts and the new ds game.

    Oh i sound like a grumpy old lady, never mind.

    I have had the urge many times to go up to a hot guy and tell him he is ruining the view with his baggy pants. It's NOT attractive. I don't know any women that actually LIKE the look.

    I also don't like aggressive drivers. It's not all about you either.

    I don't know how effective that would be in stopping me...

    Probably not that effective. But you'd know I don't like it.

    People who say "I just can't lose weight" while carrying a plate absolutely overloaded with food from the buffet.
  • lol...im with ya about the "guys with saggy pants" hanging past there butts......little do they know that wearing pants like that actually started in prison to symbolism being someone's *****

    I see that often around our building. I'm waiting for the day when some guy's pants actually fall off because they're so low.


    I was told by a cop once that they prefer the kids to wear them that way... when they try to take off running they almost always trip or get slowed down by it. :)

    Pretty much the same list as the OP, with the additions of:

    People who can't control their kids in public
    Bad, lazy drivers - use your turn signal, don't use fog lamps when there is no fog, use your lights in bad weather...
    Kid drivers who feel the need to drive everywhere at top speed
    Car stereos up too loud at night
    Motorcycles with sports cans on, that you can hear from miles away
    Speeders in small towns/villages
    Mess in the kitchen
    Dirty cooker hob
    Dog hair EVERYWHERE
    Wet towels on the bed/floor
    Clothes all over the floor
    Bad manners - there are no excuses
    People who say dumb things just to get a reaction or think it makes them look cool
    Ignorance
    Flies
    Packaging that's so hard to get in to, you just give up
    Old people chatting in the grocery store at lunchtime - come on, you have all day
    Lazy people who moan all the time about how hard it is to do anything
    Women who wear too much perfume (and guys that wear too much cologne) spray a bit on, don't shower in it
    gym flies - a set here, a few reps there and onto the Blackberry....GET OUT!!!
    Guys with their ****s on display in the gym until the absolute last second.....
    Centre lane hoggers
    Tailgaters

    poor people...... ohhhh jk, but seriously.
  • I'm pretty easy <
    that's what he said. My sense of humor is similar to a 13 yr. old boy, sorry.

    I really don't have many pet peeves,but there are a few things:

    Lazy parenting
    People who refuse to take personal responsibility- don't blame the world for all of your issues.

    I have a lot of pet peeves. I should run a shelter for homeless peeves. I shall call it the Asylum for Wayward Peeves.

    -people who slurp/smack or otherwise chew with their mouth open. When I am queen, this will be a crime punishable by repeated slapping. Actually, the sound of the repeated slapping probably sounds too much like the smacking of their mouths when they eat. I’ll have to come up with a less annoying punishment.

    -men who sit with wide open legs on the train taking up 3 seats with their legs. Dude, no one thinks you have a huge d*ck. We just think you are one, for taking up all the seats.

    -anyone who says “real women have curves” or “real women are stick thin”. Real women don’t need to say cliché phrases to convince themselves that their weight issues (over or under weight) are not something the needs to be addressed.

    -people who call my ferrets “rats”. Ferrets eat rats, first of all. Second of all, if you are going to call my pets mean names, at least be honest and call them “devious little thieves”. At least that’s factual.

    -Online political memes. Both sides. Anyone who decides how they will vote via a meme on someone’s Facebook wall as opposed to actually checking the facts probably shouldn’t be voting.

    -Men who wear their pants so low their underwear shows. You do not look like you are living the thug life, guy. You look like you failed pre-school and don’t know how to wear a pair of pants.

    -People who brag that “they won” because someone stops arguing with them. Yeah, just because someone realizes you are an idiot and stops wasting their time, does not mean “you won”.

    Oh, there are probably many more…

    Saggy pants that show their entire underwear: I did see this at a 7-11 and a cop walked up to the guy and said "Pull them up or I will cite you for indecent exposure and since we're close to a school you wil be put on the sex offenders registry!" The pants miraculosuly went up:laugh:

    A false sense of self importance!: Mostly in teens but many adults too. Everybody's the "Best" or "deserves more" just for being alive & breathing but they have yet to accomplish a damn thing!

    People who text/talk on cells and drive

    Celebrities, especially those famous for no reason: Any Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Snooki & the whole Jersey Shore idiot bunch. I have actually heard these idiots called "Role Models" disgusting!
  • People who talk on their cellphone or marathon text while being rung up at the register. It is SO RUDE to the cashier and makes their transaction take 10X longer because they aren't paying attention.

    People who get a dog and then have no time to train them or take them for walks but get mad that the dog has accidents in the house/apartment. Well what the heck did you think the dog was going to do when it had to go?

    People who treat customer service/wait staff/blue collar workers poorly. A job that doesn't require a Ph.D doesn't mean that person doesn't deserve respect or work hard.

    How people act like animals in public bathrooms and leave them a disgusting mess. How difficult is it to use an appropriate amount of TP, put your feminine hygiene products in the bin and FLUSH the toilet? Ugh!

    People who talk while they are a chewing. Gross.

    People who clip their finger or toenails on the train/bus. How in the world did you think that was okay? Ew!

    Sagged pants. I don't want to see your underwear or you gripping the crotch of your pants to hold them up, thanks!




    as a dog groomer completely agree with the dog one... also people who bring their dog to the shop and expect me to let it out to potty every two hours when I know for a fact that it sits at home in a crate for 8 hrs while they work! Or they bring the dog straight from the house to the car to the shop with no walk in between. People just because I work with dogs does not mean I like to clean up they're crap every two seconds let the poor thing go potty!

    - Loud mouths
    - Bad manners
    - Messy
    - Bad hygiene
    - People who color their hair rainbow colors. (no offense to those of you who do ;)
    - People who don't take care of themselves when it comes to fitness and a healthy diet.
    - Talking with your mouth full
    - Chewing loudly
    - Arrogant people
    - Girls who show too much cleavage
    - Guys who sag their pants past their ***
    - Foul mouthed people (I hate hearing the F bomb every other second)
    - Poor grammar

    The list goes on!

    Man your pet peeves pretty much sum it up...

    That bugs me!

    The celeb peeve is irritating.
    It does seem that some people now days don't work hard for what they want, instead they feel entitled to anything and everything.

    1) "Actually" people... People who know it all.. for example: when you say something, they say "actually" and try to correct you.

    2) "1 Up" people... People who always try to 1 up you... If you say u have a million dollars in the bank, they say they have one million and one dollars.

    3) people who complain about something and never do anything about it.

    The tough guys at the gym that throw down their weights like they are hard *kitten*.

    And the funny thing is, the "tough guys" are always the one's making the most noise with the lightest weights...if too funny.

    Cutting people off when they are speaking. Related to this, turning away from someone who is speaking to text someone, making someone speak to the top of your head because browsing the internet or playing a game on your smartphone is so much more important at that exact moment, and talkers who TALK and TALK and TALK and never allow you to reply and as soon as you DO start talking, they change the subject and talk over you.

    mine is easy. People telling me how to drive. I am an excellent driver, I know how to speed and not get caught, short cuts people don't know about, never been in an accident ect. People who tell me how to drive irritate me more than anything I can think of. Don't tell me how to drive and I wont be nit picky about how you drive :)

    I hate the back seat driver crap. I have to admit I do it sometimes..I really try to hold my tongue, but sometimes I get nervous.

    My ex complained about my driving and on this particular occasion I stopped the car and said "If you think you can do better then get out and show me."
    He got one foot out then stopped. "You're gonna drive off and leave me if I get out aren't you?" he asked.
    "Damn right I am." Funny how he finally got perceptive. At least he shut up about my driving.

    Nice thread:happy: But I think I have too many to list, and many here have the same peeves as I do.

    Bratty loud children in public.
    People constantly texting, like they think everyone needs to know their every move.
    The baggy pants thing.
    When people use the terms "Baby bump" and "Baby daddy".
    People that want to change everything to suit them.
    Smelly people (can't they smell themselves?)
    The entitlement generation (people that feel they are entitled to everything they don't work for)
    People that are proud they showed up for work (don't expect them to do anything)
    Lack of customer service these days.
    People that feel rules don't apply to them.
    Face Book, Twitter.
    Watching a hostess texting while customers are lined up.
    Drivers that have to pass you just to slow down and turn.

    Oh I could go on and on:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
