    I cant stand it when you tell a joke and everyone is joking then theres always that one person who says louder than anyone else, "You are funny". NO CRAP! EVERYONE IS LAUGHING!
    Also, as a student growing up teachers would erase off the chalkboard stuff they wrote but would forget just a little lil something....it would drive me crazy...almost make me itch.

    People who won't help themselves first before demanding everyone else help them. See them daily on MFP, unfortunately.

    Kind of a silly one, but when cabinet doors are left open, it drives me crazy!

    People who use the starving children in Africa fallacy. Ie: "You think you have problems? What about the starving African children!? THEY have problems."

    Yes, they do have problems. Yes, their problems are far greater than mine. No, that does not fix my problem. No, it doesn't mean that my problem is not a "legit" problem simply because someone has it worse.

    In the dating world....men who say, "I'm not like other guys. I'm different." Uhhhhh thanks, you just lost your shot dude. Why not spend some time just being who you ARE, instead of trying to convince me of who you AREN'T. On the other hand, maybe insecurity is my biggest pet peeve.

    1) People who drive in the passing lane.
    2) Bad punctuation, improper capitalization, multiple exclamation / question marks, improper use of homonyms / apostrophe

    Not so much a pet peeve but SMH:
    a) People who use heavy weights (esp bicep) and use arm as a pendulum to lift it (bad form)
    b) People who put treadmill on max incline and then hold on for dear life.

    I know the above two are really none of my business, but they tend to get my attention.

    Trying to talk to me while Yawning. It is pointless because I can't understand you and you will have to repeat yourself. So you might as well wait till you stop yawning to continue talking.

    I have two:

    1. People who talk on their cellphone/text/have their earbuds in while at the cash register. So rude to the cashier and it always makes them take 10x longer because they aren't paying attention to the person ringing them up.

    2. People who talk while chewing food. Gross, I do not want to see what you are eating! I have a co-worker who does this (and worse she eats a lot of tuna/egg salad type foods) and it drives me batty.

    slang... CANT.STAND.IT .. or too much abbreviations, yeah some are ok when u are using your phone, cause you know, too much to write something , but when u are in a laptop and you have a conventional keyboard its NOT nice.

    I agree with other post, people use your blinkers for God´s sake!!!!!

    People that keep asking stupid stuff when I say I HATE summer and LOVE winter, I always get these
    -are u a vampire?
    -are u depressed?
    -are u an emo?
    gtfo out of my face and just accept the fact that not all the people like summer, period.
