What are you all's pet peeves?

DITTO.

I really don't like being forced to stay at one place when it'd be so little effort to move me someplace else.

When people keep on trying to rescue an already butchered conversation...
Cliques
Fairness
When people tell you to do one thing but then they go behind your back(or not) and do exactly what they told you not to do
Lukewarm water
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Cold showers
"Know-it-all's"

Fairness is a pet peeve of yours, Paula?

Yeah...I know it sounds weird, but I'll explain. One obvious reason is, because if God used fairness...We'd all be *cough* Well...not in a good place when we die. My other reason is, because people can take fairness so far...To the point where "Oh no!" "I can't do any more for you than what is expected of me", and then that's that. Lastly...Fairness can just be stupid. I mean it's just ridiculous when you legitimately have to count out all the meatballs in the bowl and divide them between a number of people o_0 I mean C'mon...

Obviously fairness can be a good thing, and I sometimes get a positive turn out from it, but for the majority of life...It bugs me with a passion *shudders*

Ah, okay. That makes sense.

My pet peeves:
Being interrupted while in the middle of a task
When people can't make up their minds about something simple, like what to get on a pizza and everyone is saying "I don't care." so you're getting nowhere and you just want to eat
People who come into our store and complain about the prices. No one is forcing to you buy anything.
Being forced to eat when I'm not hungry, being told I shouldn't eat when I am
My iPod falling off of whatever surface I put it on and yanking out my earbuds in the process
The sheer amount of Star Wars merchandise with either Darth Vader or Yoda on it. I'd much rather have stuff with Luke or Ahsoka or Obi-Wan.

Where do I start?
Pet Peeves:
Mispronunciation (on purpose)
Excessive clicking
People who take long showers
People that tap me on the shoulder
People who power off the TV while I am watching
People who unplug my headphones (I don't wear earbuds)
Things that arrive in the box ruined
Bugs.... every kind.
Having someone shut my book before I mark it

For now, I'll spare you.... but the list goes on.... and on. :P

I agree with most of these.

I absolutely despise when I sit back down after doing something and having to get up.

I already have a list made out for this! \:D/

•When you read a book and find out later that you've been pronouncing something wrong
•When someone who has no idea what you and your friends are talking about jumps into the conversation, expecting you to explain what's going on
•When you jump into a conversation and the people are talking about random stuff and you ask what's going on and no one explains it to you
•When someone thinks you're stupid for not believing their bad reasoning
•When your parents sign you up for something you don't want to do and they don't tell you about it until the day of
•When you finally can do something, but when you try to show someone else you can do it you suddenly can't
•When everyone in your group of friends wants to do something except one person and that one person talks everyone out of doing it
•When you're watching something on TV and your family member comes in and changes the channel
17:39<Novatom>: I'm in another boat. A boat of people who don't know what everyone's talking about. A boat that is sinking.
17:40<Sameriazx>: oh no... here we go again...

When my head won't stop itching because I need to wash my hair. (ohhhhkay..kinda tmi, but it DOES bug me)
Getting dirt stuck under my fingernails.
Coming down to find that someone ELSE is playing gungame.
Not being able to play gungame because the server's running too slow.
Having to fight Deathcell, who is much better at gun-gaming than I am.
Listening to people praise Frozen.
Reading anything related to war on here. :twisted:
Having my coworker diss something he knows diddle-squat about and that I know a whole lot about.
Getting bug bites on the backs of my knees.
That feeling of my face getting all greasy at the end of the day.
The fact that my supposedly glow-in-the-dark watch doesn't..actually...glow.

And that's just the start. :P

Well at you all are pouring out your sorrows and trivial things on line. Did I say trivial? ;)

I despise people who make gods out of celebrity.
I despise pop music.
I hate when people who can't sing sing.

But that's kinda what a pet peeve is?
A pet peeve or pet hate is a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to themself, to a greater degree than others may find.

So it would appear that Blitz' pet peeve is people listing their pet peeves..

wait..

Some of my pet peeves are people leaving a mess when they're done somewhere, instead of cleaning it up.
The sound of cheap crinkly plastic.
The sound of knives on plates.
The sound of sandpaper on fresh salmon.

Novatom! Those are exactly what I think! I remember one time when I could NOT pronounce the name "Goel". It could be goal, go el, or a million bajillion other things. It was so aggravating. ;)
