That one pet peeve...

[Gunjester]

So I just got a call from my girlfriend, who calls me while she is on a skype call with three of her friends, wearing headphones with one side off her ear to talk to me...now I don't know about you guys, but I hate that.
I love to talk to her and all that, don't take it that way. But when people call me while they're busy or distracted, it royally pisses me off.

Anyways, I was wondering about you guys. What annoys you the most?

 

[ShinyCharizard]

Room mates not cleaning up after themselves is possibly the most annoying thing in the world ever.

 

[Vault101]

is it that time of the month again? OH BOY!

"women are coming into our club and dictating how we do things!! ISH NOT FAAAAAIIIRRR" <-oh grow the fuck up...please

our fridge died...you don't realise how important a fridge is in your day to day life and untill you dont have one (as in macoroni and no cheese for dinner...for a week)

internet being slow when it should not be fucking hell I do not have time for that shit

not having any time for anything..it sucks

"Hey man, can I borrow a pencil?"

"Sure"

Person then proceeds to obliterate my pencil eraser in one torturous, 30-second spree.

And when people try to erase using a pencil where the eraser is pretty much gone and all that remains is the metal piece. Like nails on a chalk board. As you can imagine, I generally try to avoid pencils.

Yorkies, yorkies pissing and pooping everywhere right after they come in from outside, yorkies barking at the tv, yorkies being annoying little rats.

Also PDA, it really annoys me, seeing as I don't have the option to do it, I HATE IT. Seeing my buddy and his gf do that annoys me so bad that when they come to the bar together(usually after everyone else) I will legitimately leave. Also I hate bad teeth, it really really bugs me. His gf happens to have those as well, I can't look at her without staring into her mouth...

Talking during class. Especially if you're in college and are in a classroom of only 30 people. I can hear you LOUD AND CLEAR, the professor hears you LOUD AND CLEAR, and I cannot understand what the professor is saying (it being in German does not make this task much easier) because I can hear your smug and condescending voice from 5 feet away. Also we get it, you already took this class and have to take it again because you transferred, stop acting like you know more than us, because while showing us your "extensive knowledge" you end up getting a lot of questions wrong. (Didn't mean for that to turn into a personal rant)

And while I apologize for not making this clear to people as often as I should, I really enjoy my personal space and hate being touched by people I don't know that well.

 

[Fappy]

I feel for you OP. I get very irritated when people attempt to talk on the phone but are clearly too distracted to pay attention to what's being said. I feel like they're deliberately wasting my time.

People not cleaning up after themselves. It has come to my attention, that this appears to be limited to me, and with the arrival of my flat mates girlfriend moving in with us two years down the line, her too.

Seriously, I don't know if this is how grow up or what, but I've lived with multitudes of people who just don't clean up after themselves. They finish a packet of stuff off? Leave the empty packet in the fridge. Make a sandwich on the side? Yeah, fuck cleaning up, just gonna leave all the debri there. Make a tin of soup? Yeah tin lives whereever I leave it now. Our kitchen is so small, there's almost nowhere you can stand and not reach the bin.

Finish a roll of bog roll? Goes on the floor, despite there being a bin in the bathroom, within arms reach of the toilet.

ARGHHH THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?

As a bonus peeve!: People using "I could care less" when they actually mean "couldn't". It's not exactly a difficult phrase if you speak English and are aware what could and couldn't mean (Ie EVERY AND ALL native English speakers). It'd be like saying "I do like that" when you actually mean "I don't like that." and how often do you do that?

One thing that annoys me more than anything is when people are self centered. I know everyone hates this but it drives me insane when people ***** about others and don't even attempt to think about why the other person did what they did.

 

[BloatedGuppy]

I have a million pet peeves, some big, some small. Most of them are pretty minor, and I'd never do anything about them other than feel a brief burst of annoyance. But if you slam on your brakes and put on your left hand turn signal after entering an intersection, freezing the entire lane, I will CUT YOU.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Pretty much when my parent being incompetent with technologies.
They always going on with me trying harder but yet they can't try harder to remember the basis uses when using the PC and mobile phone (and I'm not talking about smartphone).
Also they go on how I should learn Chinese and yet they always get me to answer the phone for something they can't understand like complecated english word spoken by an English speaking person.

 

[Domogo]

The system! fight the man!

For real: Fake geek girls really piss me off they are ruining our lifestyle! I though this was a safe haven for me.

No seriously this time: I Bussing hate when my internet is UP: .9 mbps and Dwn: .9 mbps when I pay for 30 muther bussing Mbps. And then I have to deal with idiots on the support line who don't know anything and I have to re-contact them three times to get one person who will do what I want them to do

 

[Lt._nefarious]

My Buddy: "Hey, man, wanna play some Planet Side 2?"
Me: "Yeah, sure..."
My Buddy: "Cool, spawn as your Vanu character and meet me at the home base in Indar..."
Me: "Sure"

*15 minutes later*

Me: "So, er, where are you, I'm at Indar..."
My Buddy: "Oh, yeah, [insert name here] wanted to play some Bad Company 2, so..."

FFS, I hate it when people do that!

When people take the last cup from the coffee pot, then dont clean it.. like rinse the pot, toss the grounds.. thats 20seconds, 40seconds? Especially when im the one buying and making the coffee the every morning >.<

One time I was going along and the person in front of me stopped very suddenly and the roads were wet so I slammed on my brakes and tried to change lanes fast but people wouldn't let me in so I slid and slammed the car in front. If people had of let me over I could have avoided the accident.

Edit nvm I thought you said something else.

I had the same thing happen on the freeway. Tires locked up on the wet road. Lady in front of me had to slam on her brakes, because the car in front of her did a phantom brake. My car took all the damage.

Realistically though, both of us were following too close. I try to leave LOTS of room now because you never know when the person in front of you likes to brake at shadows. Sadly, someone always pulls into that space, so I have to fall back a bit again, and again...

Basically my pet peeve is people are horrible drivers and should hate themselves for it as much as I hate them.

Edit nvm I thought you said something else.

And yes, I was specifically whining about late signals, but don't let that stop you. I can be encouraged to hate MANY things about driving...

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

I hate it when people use their mobile phones at inappropriate times...
I.e.:

• Dinner/meals
  In the bar
  During a conversation
  During my briefings
  In places they shouldn't (around aircraft... hospitals etc)
  In the anteroom
  In quiet places
  In my car (phonecalls- other than If I am making them on my own)
  At official events (like Remembrance Sunday parades)
  At funerals (yes!)
  When paying at a till
  When at someone elses house (texting during socialising)
  During films
  etc

 

[RubyT]

I hate not being listened to.

When my girlfriend asks me a question and then gets distracted by something (facebook, twitter, email, phone...) and I feel like some mong talking to himself.

Or when I'm in the middle of telling her something and she starts asking me a totally disconnected question - reassuring me that a) what I was saying was boring and b) what she wants is more important.

Or when I am at a party and I begin to say something and inadvertently somebody else starts an anecdote as well and nobody listens to me anymore. It's made worse when I'm in the middle of an anecdote and somebody else starts talking.

But what really pisses me off is when people didn't listen to something, but then INSIST on me repeating it and just DON'T. LET. GO. Like, I made a trademark ironic comment and 2 people are laughing and person #3 now needs me to repeat what I said. You don't do that. Humor is all about timing, I won't repeat the punchline. But some people will bugger you for minutes because they seem to feel missing that one punchline will ruin their lives now...

Where to begin:

People who take up BOTH sides of the Escalator. Everywhere in the world people stand on the right, or run up the left hand side, DON'T BLOCK PEOPLE IN A RUSH!

People who tell me I should get an iPhone/Blackberry/Android/Can with a piece of string. Seriously, why should I? If I do, will that validate your decision to get one, you bellend?

People who blame their shitty luck on immigrants/migrant workers, never mind the fact that the people who complain clearly have no intention of finding a job at all or even have the qualifications to work because you dropped out of school when you were 15 to focus on your music but your lack of money and three kids is all because of the brown people!

People who try to argue that the moon landing was fixed. Seriously, read a fucking book you moron. Same goes for the assassination of JFK and 9/11 being an inside job.

People who ask for custom made burgers in McDonalds. If you want a Big Mac with no pickles, lettuce or relish then MAKE ONE YOUR-FUCKING-SELF! Don't go to the busiest fucking FAST FOOD restaurant in town and hold up the queue for half an hour!!

People who smoke. It's your life and everything but if I have to cough because you've just blown smoke right in my face, don't look at me like I'm the one poisoning everyone around you!

People who like football. Alright, people who judge others for NOT liking football. No, I don't care how many caps Steven Gerrard got as captain of Liverpool. Who the fuck cares? You can name every single member of the Chelsea squad? Congratulations, can you tell me the line up of the Astonishing X-Men? No. But I'm the sad one? Hypocrite. And while we're at it, people who wear football shirts when they're not playing football. Better yet, people with ACTUAL player's name on their football shirts. You're cosplaying you gimp, and badly, no way is Beckham as fat and bald as you.

Reality TV fans. Did I see X-Factor on Saturday night? No, I have a life.

People who do Movember. Seriously, I can see you're growing a moustache, just because it's the ONLY time of year you do something for charity doesn't give you the right to preach about it every five seconds. We both know you're only doing it so you can get more likes/retweets on whatever social media you use...

People who think Facebook and Twitter "matter". You didn't like my status, why not, I thought we were friends, I'm going to delete you! Fucking good, you vapid shallow ****! Get your self respect from somewhere else, not just how many people "like" that you just burnt your toast because you're such a spaz, OMG!

Vegetarians. Yes I do know where my burger came from. The Supermarket, the same place as the cabbage you buy that makes you fucking stink.

 

[SilverBullets000]

The biggest pet peeve I have is being judged for enjoying a game that is considered bad by the rest of the gaming internet population. Honestly, admit you had a little fun floating on the boxes in Sonic 06 and suddenly you're the worst kind of gamer.
