I know we all can think of hundreds of them but just list the ones that burn ya up quick:costumes: One of my biggest peeve is when I am driving and I'm in the right hand lane and a car passes me in the left lane and then cuts me off to make a right hand turn..I then look in my rear view mirror and nobody is behind me:angryfir: My next one is when standing in line to buy something and the person in front of me waits until the cashier rings everything up, bags everything and then the person either can't find there check book or doesn't know what credit card to put it on...why didn't they look for this chet while standing in line:angryfir: My last one is when I am at a fast food restaurant, been standing in line forever and the person in front of me has been looking at the menu on the wall for 30 minutes and when it is there turn to order they just stand there and still look at the menu and still don't know what they want, after holding up the line awhile figuring out what they finally want then they can't find enough money to pay for what they order and pay for half with cash and the rest with a credit card and then they have to get the manager to approve it...lol...I ain't hungry no moe:costumes:

Do you have a Pet Peeve ?
- Thread starter hey_moe
- Start date
In my 46 years of life I have learned to live with just about everything, like people that look at you on the ground in a pool of your own blood asking "Are you alright?" People that look at you holding your credit card and then ask "Cash or Credit?" I can live with those and many more that at one time would just 
me off but now I have but one Pet Peeve that is sure to ruin the best of days...The phone rings, I look at the caller ID (Mine is on the TV)......................And it's my ex wife's number

Tailgaters!:tgun2: Also a minor peeve, those who have dealer names on their plate frames. Are they, or you, getting paid to advertize for them? Or the ones that have the car's brand on them, in addition to the three other places the car's brand is displayed. Are you SURE it's a BMW??
And don't get me started on Baby-on-Board, or Honour Student stickers...

Boy, do I have a list of pet peeves for you guys!! Thanks Mike for starting this :d
16. Ice cream that taste like freezer burn.
OK, OK, done!!!!!
See what you started Mike....again!
- People constantly clicking the end of their pen.
- Grocery carts with one bad wheel that goes "koowee, koowee, kowee".
- Greasy salt & pepper shakers.
- Towels folded the wrong way.
- People racing you to the yield sign
- People who flaunt their wealth & status
- People who clean their ears & nails in public. Or better yet, the ones who rip their nails and leave the clippings on your floor.
- People who drink directly out of the container
- Noisy eaters
- Dirty keyboards
- People too lazy to lift their feet up while walking and all you hear is "shlunk, shlunk, shlunk."
- Plastic wrapping around DVD's, CD's, etc. Takes forever to take off. Timewasters!
- Bubble gum smackers!
- People who don't cover their mouths while yawning or coughing.
- People with their feet out of the car window.

In random order:
- Guys who's pants are around their knees and their boxers sticking out.
- Those one boots that 99.9% of high school/college girls wear.
- People who drive in the left lane, and only in the left lane forcing you to pass them on the right. The left lane is for passing!

People driving while on the cell phone...or on the cell phone while driving..can't really tell which they are actually doing with real concentration.
People who insist on using their cell phone as walkie talkies, volume cranked up so everyone in the store can hear what the person one the other end is saying, and screaming into the phone so that everyone in the store can hear what they are saying.
People who walk around with those cyborg things clamped onto their ears so they can talk on their cell phones while doing everything...and looking like they are talking to themselves.
Cell phones and everything related to them generally.
People who either have used too much perfume/calogne or not enough soap, water and deodorant.
Basically 99% of the population below the age of 25.
The way every store employee is visible when you don't need help, but once you need help they all disappear like roaches when the lights are turned on.
When I order a cheese burger with no ketchup and no pickles and get it only to find that the only things on it are ketchup and pickles.
The way the workers at fast food restaurants interrupt your order to ask you if "You want fries with that" or "You want that supersized"...and as a result end up getting your order all wrong. Just shut up and type in my order...if I want fries, I'll let you know! Idiots!!!!
People who pass you only to get stuck in traffic directly ahead of you. Got real far didn't ya dumb arse?

somehow, i manage to pick that cart every single saturday!!!!
one of my very best friends is a noisy eater. he ate alone when we worked together because of this. he claimed he can't help it. i call b.s. on that one
i won't even start on the pick up your feet thing
we had a kid like this at one place i worked. he was trying to work one handed, holding his pants up with the other hand. he was fired on the 3rd day. he only made it that far because he was my best friend's son.
the other day i saw a girl of about 10 riding a bike that was too big for her. she stopped in the middle of the intersection to answer her phone. WTH!!!???
also, the perfume thing makes me nuts, and the way many kids today wear axe (disgusting) instead of bathing.
it was easier to just agree with you guys than actually write my own
Have ya ever gone to a sit down restaurant and you were seated and you wait and wait and wait. While sitting there waiting you look around and notice that most customers are eating and three quarters of the place is empty and you wonder WTF in going on....are the employees on strike or what. Finally you give up and leave and on the way out the girl who seated ya says " How was your meal." Have ya ever been reading the paper and ya see something on sale and decide to buy it, drive down to the store and find out they are out of stock and it is also on back order...then you ask the sales person, how can this be, you just opened 5 minutes ago. Ya ever been grocery shopping and while pushing the cart down the food lane you notice another shopper with the cart on the left or right side and they are standing on the other side of the cart bent down blocking the rest of the lane. They wait till you get right up to them and act like they never saw or heard ya....do feel like slamming there cart and saying opps..I didn't see you either..lol.

Are you my wife???? Sounds just like her.:costumes::costumes::costumes::costumes:
1. Managers and Corporate who say that "CHANGE IS COMMING!" when nothing has changed yet....
2. Agents who just count out and leave with out telling me!
3. Agents who, as Obio said, disappear like roaches when the light comes on!
3. People who would rather kick ya when your down then give you a hand.
4. Guys who wear their pants around their knees.
5. Customer's when you have to repeat your self 3 times with directions on how to get to your business. USE A MAP, and write down directions. AND STOP PLAYING WITH THE GPS! ITS A TOY!
6. Customer's who immediately ask where the lounge or the closest liquor store is.
7. Customer's who tell me to move the roads (or the buisness) when I ask how I can help them.
8. People who use text to sent a lengthy message rather then to call you. YOU HAVE A PHONE D&#%$&^T! USE IT!
9. (I may get lashed for this) My Mother drives me nuts when she calls 5-8 times a day, just to tell me what the cats are doing!:isadizzy:
This is great group therapy!:d

Well, all of you have about covered mine, especially those involving idiot drivers and check-out hassles.
But the one peeve surely to send my BP to the roof is to wait inline at a drive-through window at a bank and the car in front of you has four people and when they pull to the window, they each have to make separate transactions and always one of them has to draw money off savings and takes forever deciding how much, then forever more signing the approval to draw the funds! God, do banks drive me nuts!
