A lot of them are already posted on this thread... here's a few more...

Sneaky people... who think they're pulling one over on you, yet don't know how to do it well. If you're going to be sneaky... do it right! Make sure I don't know!

People who take credit for things that someone else did.

Waiting in long lines.

Women who do the front of their hair, but never think to touch or even look at the back.

Someone touching me with their feet... or putting their feet on anything other than my floor, with the exception of the bed if it's a man that I'm seeing.

Carpet in the bathroom, especially around the potty. Not only are they full of bacteria, but a lot of times the bathroom smells of urine.

Someone doing/saying/something that I've done or say. I had this problem back when I was little, too. I got a waterbed when I was 11, then the next thing I know my girlfriend talks her mom into getting her one a couple of months later. I made my mom bring my mattress back in and sell my waterbed. Or, certain phrases I say... if someone starts saying it too, it annoys me enough that I tend to stop. I don't think this should be a pet peeve. Perhaps I should work on not being this way.

Non-smokers who turn up there nose at you if they see you smoking.

Yeah, but what if you are one of those people who are being sincere, but just don't appear to be?

People who don’t say please and thank you. Number one on my list.
People that think it's ok when they do it, but would kill someone else for the same thing
People who think that non smokers are all snob's just because we don’t want to inhale
Guy's who think they are bigger than what they are
People who let kids be total brat's and then get mad when you have to say something to them

I think often you can just tell whether or not someone is.

But, I am being sincere! lol... yeah... my tone. I think a lot of the time I just sound very... oooooh.... too direct and harsh or give off a "could care less" attitude, when I actually do care, but just come off sounding like I don't. I dunno. But, damnit, I'm sincere when they say I'm not... well, most of the time.

Misspellings and typos drive me BONKERS!!!!!

Not so much on an online forum, because
I know that people are typing quickly
and it's not such a big deal.

EXCEPT FOR THESE:

Misuse of YOUR and YOU'RE.
The first is the possessive form of YOU.
The second is a contraction of YOU ARE.

AND

Mispelling the name of my beloved Apollonia.

A-P-O-L-L-O-N-I-A. Go listen to the long version
of "Sex Shooter" and hear her spell it out. A tip:
1 P, 2 L's.

A-L-A-D-D-I-N. Again, 1 L, 2 D's. Pick up the
case and read it in big white letters, you lazy
piece of....
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

oh my lord, pedestrians will do that crap on a busy street, too. they'll barge right past you like they're in some kind of major hurry, and then once their ass is comfortably aligned right in front of you, they slow down. it's like they're not in any hurry, they just like being in front of someone. rolleyes

My #1 pet peeve is when people call me "honey", I really hate that!! pissed A woman once called me that at the grocery store and I told her, "Please don't call me honey, I hate that!" She didn't even say a word she just kind of had a "duhhh" look on her face. disbelief

Also another pet peeve (and a lot of folks think I'm nuts for feeling this way, but it really bugs me) is at work when someone makes corrections to something that I've typed, then they bring it to me and read the changes out loud to me. I'm pretty good at deciphering handwriting, and I don't need to be read to like a baby, thank you very much. If I can't read your writing, you can be damn sure that I will ask you about it, rather than guessing. mad
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.
