Pet Peeves that make you seem like a crazy person

[Iridani]

I'm the same way about that Ryllharu... if I'm told I'm going to be doing it I just plain won't for the most part. Could even be a game I enjoy.

[Hikyuu]

ooo Pet peeve.. I can't STAND THE SOUND OF MY PARENTS EATING..... Oh my god.. The sight and sound.. just... erks me so much that for a brief moment I want to smash their head against the pavement.

I cannot stand it how almost every passenger that gets into my car is too lazy to lift their outer leg so they don't drag their shoes along the side skirts. I just had my car repainted a couple of months ago and it's white. I already have a few scuffs on the front part of the passenger side skirt. Thank goodness it's just me in my car 95% of the time.

And any time I've mentioned it to my passengers I feel like I'm totaly anal-retentive and an asshole....but I admit to being both so I guess I shouldn't feel bad. I mean, it is my car after all.

people saying "who" where you should say "what" or any other word.
ie. You tell the person something, they dont quite hear it... so they say " blah blah WHO?" as if they're asking about a person when in fact they are asking about anything. not just black people... all sorts of people are doing it. stop that shit.

people not using blinkers (yes, they come with any make/model car ! omfg !)
people parking huge suvs in compact car parking spots
people parking too close to my car
people tailgating me
people making me repeat myself

people talking way too loud and obnoxious on the train... or anywhere else, as if people other than the ones they're actually talking to want to hear what they're saying

people asking me for money when i work 2 jobs for the money i have

i hate it when im concentrated on a movie or video game and then someone comes bursting into my room without knocking and starts asking you a question or for help and u lose focus and miss out on a part of the story of the video game and movie making me play that part over again

edit: this thread is a lot like the bitching thread lol

I hate it when I'm in a café or a restaurant, and someone lights a cig...
Come on, wait 30 minutes and light it outside!
I almost want to kill when people do this when they are on a non smoking part of the restaurant... In France, no one dares to pest them... and they won't get a fine...
There's also the waitress/waiter that tells you this is a non smoking part, and the next person she sits, she says it's ok to smoke...
That one I want to kill with burning cigarets on their body.
Then there are these restaurants where smoking and non smoking area are separated with thin air....

Hopefully, starting january 1st 2008, it will be prohibited to smoke in any café, restaurant and so on.
The problem is, if it's not enforced, the situation will remain as awful as today...

We've had a law for over ten years, that was here to help respect beetween smokers and non smokers. The thing is smokers never ever cared, no enforcement, so non smokers were just plainly fucked...

I've been tripping to Italy, where the non smokig rule is enforced. You can't even imagine how nice it is for me to be siping a ristreto, without some cig smoke going up my nostrils... Actually, the ristreto is even better.
The same goes with what you eat...

No. I wanted this thread to list out strange pet peeves that people have. Ones that are generally beyond comprehension. If you don't have any, there's absolutely nothing wrong with complaining about customers at work, or about people being obnoxious in general, but that wasn't the intent of this thread. All of that can go in the bitching thread.

Like, don't say your pet peeve is people talking loudly on their phones in restaurants. That's boring, and a pretty common thing to get annoyed about. I was really looking for things that might seem pretty simple or unimportant to everyone else, but cause you inexplicable rage. Like putting ketchup on steak, scuffing the side skirts of cars, or when people wear shoes on carpets.

Don't get me wrong though! I'm not trying to be restrictive, 'cause I think there have been some funny answers in this thread.

Wait...who?

One thing that really pisses me off is when people ask "What's the best _____ to buy?" How the hell am I supposed to know if that's all the information they provide you with? The "best" as in the most appropriate, the best bang for the buck, or the best performance/quality? I usually answer with "The best one is probably the most expensive one."

I hate those dumbasses...

[itadakimasu]

people thinking it is ok to text while in the movie theater... a bright screen is as distracting as the phone ringing itself...

couple months ago this asshole had a bluetooth ear piece on a few rows in front of me and every 5-6 seconds it would brightly flash... this guy had no clue of what a complete asshole he is.

That's what usually makes someone an asshole...being completely oblivious to their assholery.

i can't stand it when people confuse the "i" and "e" in certain words. "recieve", "wierd", "kieths". i mean, bad spelling usually makes me cringe, but this mistake in particular really makes me want to hurt someone.

[Board of Command]

ORLY? What about the ever-so-popular "your" instead of "you're"?

[XanBcoo]

That bugs me, but not as much as the hypercorrection of "you're" when "your" is the appropriate spelling. I see it all the time. Dumb kids know that the two are often confused and then apply one rule to every instance, as if they're trying to seem intelligent.

"Pick up you're stuff man."

This made me laugh. Especially since I spelled "weird" as "wierd" for the longest time. I honestly thought I had it right.

I have a pet peeve that's more of a personality trait. I hate being ordered to do anything. Doesn't matter what it is, could be as simple as going out with friends. If someone tells me I'm going to be doing something, I get pissed, obstinate, and definitely do not want to do it. Not simply not feel motivated, I mean stonewalled against it. I may even enjoy doing it under normal circumstances.

The flip side is that if you ask me to do something, unless I've already got something planned, or don't have the skill to do it, I'll do whatever it is far more often than not. I'll even go out of my way to get it done.

There's a big difference between asking and telling.

I hate people that neglect to do something for you if you ask them, but if you keep asking them they are less likely to do it for you. You basically can't win.

My pet peeve is that for the longest time, my sister would eat cheerios with her mouth wide open. That stuff smells like ass when it is consumed. Whenever she eats it I have to leave the room, it disgusts me.

Also, people who think MS Paint is a legitimate image editing program. I had an acquaintance who was in charge of the high schools literary magazine, and he did the majority of his work in MS Paint. It was aggravating to say the least.
