I know there's many small, insignificant things that irritate some more than others.
Let's hear yours.
One of mine is all capital letters. When I come across a post with all caps, I just close it and go to another one. It is too much trouble to try to separate the words and get a meaning out of it.
What's your pet peeves??

Supposedly when pronounced suposably is the big one. Mispronunciation on a whole makes me crazy. I wholly agree with the all caps thing. I work in customer service online, so the entirety of my job is in text. All caps make me feel.. well .. less than helpful  |

Bad drivers in general, but driving while on the phone or texting REALLY gets to me. Makes me want to run them off the road and smash the phone into tiny little pieces. It's dangerous enough on the road without added distractions. So, unless you're a world-famous brain surgeon consulting my case, or talking someone through disarming a nuclear warhead about to detonate in my backyard, HANG UP AND DRIVE!

Yep drivers... oh um.... I mean people that think they are drivers
Slow down before getting into the left turn lane (or any turn lane) OR ignore the turn lane completely
Slowing down to 4 or 5 mph to make a right turn.... geee, I can do it at 20 mph and I drive an SUV
Drive 15 mph below the speed limit.
Speed up when you go to pass them
And the list goes on and on and on

People who yell and scream at each other in public. It makes me stop and pause and be grateful that I don't do that to anyone I know. (now privately - that's a different story ) |

When my wife is on the phone with somebody, and talks so loud, I can't hear the TV. With all these rooms in the house, she wants to be next to me.

Right on Annette, especially the ones who start yelling when they disagree with someone elses thoughts or ideas.

People with a handicap placard that obviously aren't using the spot close to the store.Or the handicapped person staying in the car and someone perfectly healthy going into the store.And then seeing someone obviously meant for that spot parking far away to save the space for someone more needy.
The second person doesn't bug me,just bugs me more about the first circumstance.

People who insist on text messaging while driving. I just about called the cops on a guy I surely thought was drunk yesterday, weaving back and forth, scaring the daylights outta everyone around, traffic slowing for this fool. He finally pulled all the way over to the right lane and I could see he was texting away, in his own lil idiotic world!

People in general, but specifically people intolerant of my intolerance who demand that I tolerate them. Oh yeah, JP, that was a nice quip about the pet named "Peeve". It gotta a mental grin out of me .........I might add chicken-killin'-dogs to the list, as well. 'Specially when they're mine. Just kidding about people.....I love 'em. I just can't tolerate them. |

...People with no placard who park there anyway and bound into the store like they're going to be late for soccer practice. One day I will park behind one of them and call the police. |
