    People who curse when there are children around. Be an uneducated chav if you want to be but please give your children a chance to surpass your limited vocabulary by not teaching them to express their frustrations in the same way. It's just so tacky.

    Also people constantly bragging about themselves. I'm so over it, be proud of some achievement by all means but please stop telling me you're 'so hot' and tooting your own horn daily, it's almost as if you're trying to convince yourself/the rest of us and I can't abide it.

    For using the word chav

    Dating sites. I was on one for less than a week and wow, just wow.... Some people are really just wow.... Respect, people. Learn it. Apply it.
    ChristianMingle just isn't what it used to be

    lol, it was OKCupid. I'm good. I don't feel the need to try that again.

    I met my bf on OKCupid. There are some good ones, but yeah, a lot to weed through to get to them

    I did meet what seemed to be a few nice guys, but for the most part the messages I was getting ( and my pictures were all tasteful and fully clothed) were repulsive.

    that's disgusting and has happened to me before. Not a bloody pulp, but he was beating me and his friends just stood there and watched. Some people are repulsive.

    That's terrible, I hope you got far, far, away from that guy!

    I did and his friends.

    My brother works as the "Target Cop" and was called outside because some guy was wailing on his wife in the parking lot. Bet her to a bloody pulp. He said he ran out to stop it and there were probably 30 customers standing around watching, not ONE of them tried to stop it.

    That makes me lose faith in humanity.

    THESE ^^^. If you see something wrong, do something.

    On the flip side, I've seen things that RESTORE my faith in humanity, too.
    But since the bad news sells, it starts to feel like there's ONLY bad in the world after a while. Just ask my 9-year-old after he's watched 10 minutes of the news, or even one of the morning shows -- he thinks everything bad is going to happen to us (disease, violence, weather disasters, global warming, horrific accidents).

    Using the bathroom stall right next to me when there's a buffer available!! COME ON MAN!!!!

    ^^^ THIS^^^

    Child abuse, Dog Fighting, Animal Abuse
    People who have a COMPLETE lack of awareness for other people. Seriously? You didn't see me standing there?!?
    People who rely solely on the government to feed and house them and their family (there are the exceptions of people who sincerely need this type of help)
    People who INTENTIONALLY litter- d*mn clean up your *kitten* dude! Other people live here too!
    People who use bad grammer (ie double negatives) and make up words- CONVERSATE IS NOT A WORD! Btw if you ain't got nothin, that means you do IN FACT have something

    Trust me I have get annoyed on a daily basis! I'm a switchboard operator for 7 hospitals. I deal with doctors and patients and visitors. I know I'm only dealing with a small portion of the population, but it seems that people just don't have common sense or manners. Half the time I can't understand people because it sounds like they have a ball of cotton in their mouth or they are just too lazy to open their mouths and annunciate. Most people call because they think they have an appointment but they don't know the name of their docotor or what department they have the appointment in. Most people call to get information and they can't say please or may I, it's "give me"!

    Don't get me started, I could go on and on!

    People who don't check the log before sending an e-mail to a bunch of people asking about the status of a phone call. REALLY? Why not look it up? It would have taken the same amount of time as sending an email! Sigh.

    Drivers who don't use turn signals and either slow down, cut me off, or otherwise impede my progress when a simple turn signal would have alerted me to their intentions.

    (These things have happened to me already today and it's not even 9:00am.)

    - Store Employee's Parking right in FRONT of the store doors. Those spots should be for customers. You will be there for 6-8 hours, park farther away.

    - Family/Friend re-unions in a store taking up all the space and can't get around them and they just look at you and give you a snotty look like you did something wrong.

    War.

    Pretty basic.

    It is good for absolutely nothin'

    Oh is that so?


    Star Wars, Cake Wars, Storage Wars....
    I'd like to add people who like Star Wars to my list.

    That's not funny. Even in the slightest. Especially from someone who considers Twilight entertainment. You be quiet.

    WTF??? Twilight IS entertainment!!

    People who hurt other people for fun, religion or any reason at all.

    People hurting the earth by filling landfills and oceans with plastic junk, not even being aware that the sand in islands in the Pacific is now becoming plastic sand and the ocean is plastic soup. No joke. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQh898IcOgM

    People slitting the throats of innocent animals and eating them. And calling it 'humane'.

    However, I think there are lots of good people out there. I'm not losing hope.

    Oh god. Yeah. The abbreviations people use make me sick. Spelling 'your' as 'UR'. C'mon- is it that hard to type TWO letters? Or people that spell things other ways so they can sound retarded. 'WAZ', 'HAZ', etc. Ugh.

    People who smoke while trying to talk on a cellphone while driving at the same time. The same goes for putting on make-up, shaving, and doing your hair while driving. PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE A HAZARD ON THE ROAD.

    1 - Animal cruelty - there is no need for it you don't like animals then stay away from them !

    2 - Disrespect of other people - what ever you may think of other peoples choices/views/ways of doing things in life if they are causing you no harm then leave them be it's their choice not yours !

    3 - People who force their views on you - whether we are talking about God, politics or anything else I have my views I keep them to myself unless asked, you have yours I will not respect you for trying to batter me round to your way of thinking I'll just think you're an idiot !

    4 - People who spit in the street - Gross ..no more needs saying on that one

    5 - Disrespect of people in public service - waiting staff, shop assistants , bus drivers these people are providing you with a service or trying to help you in some way treat them nicely !

    6 - Mothers who scream abuse at their children in public - getting more and more common in the UK sadly but if you can not treat your child with compassion and understanding there is no hope really ...

    In fact the way people are now treating each other with no respect and no consideration of each other is pretty sad :-(

    People who block traffic in a parking lot while waiting for someone to load their groceries and children just so they can have a relatively close spot. DUDE in the time it took waiting I could have PARKED AND WALKED IN BY NOW! GRRRRRR.

    This happened to me too, although not to a bloody pulp either and his THREE friends just stood there and watched. Didn't bother to look away and didn't help, even though they are ALL bigger than he was! :mad:
