Your biggest pet peeve

[Jinxed Soul]

I know that short-forms and lack of grammar, punctuation, and spelling are common when typing on MSN, message boards etc. Even I do it occassionally, but it annoys the hell out of me when it gets to the point that I'm having to think and try to comprehend what the person is saying.

Example:

i kno tht short forms nd lack of gramar punctuation nd spellin r cmon wen typin on msn msg boards etc buh it annoys the hell outta me wen it gets to the point tht im hvin to tink nd try 2 comprehend wat the person is sayin

My biggest pet peves are cell phones. I have one, but I do not use it when I am on a date, at the movies, having a conversation with someone, or at the counter when making a purchase. I worked retail, and I think many people are rude in general. Add a phone to this and it is almost impossible to deal with/help them.

Being Late and I alway waiting on my friends.

i agree with u jinxed soul i hate when ppl type like this becuz its so hard to read nd it sux. learn how 2 spell ppl is it so hard i dont think so.

This drives me nuts. When it rains and I stop my car and the windsheild wipers are stopped in the middle of the windshield. It irritates the living hell out of me.

I am a very punctual person and when people are late, I get pissed.

[SpiritualJunkie]

- People who don't say "thank you" (I work in retail and it just pisses me off when people don't bother to show some gratitude or at least, just be polite)

- People who let their children run around stores like little brats

- People who don't throw their trash in the trash

- Rudeness in general

- Pretentiousness

- Overly sarcastic people - this is kinda funny 'cause I used to be one of these people and I never understood why people would complain about me being sarcastic. Now that I'm less sarcastic, I totally notice sarcasm when I hear it...and it pisses me off! Some people are just naturally sarcastic and don't really mean any harm by their sarcastic remarks but it's still hard not to think of them as being total a--holes sometimes. This happened with a friend of mine recently..or more like, I just came to realize how sarcastic he really is and it's just starting to get on my nerves...

IT would have to be grammar and misspelling words for me

[KLN]

People who are always late. Pisses me off like crazy!

I also hate it when I'm in the middle of something with someone else -- either we're playing a game, or having an important conversation -- then suddenly their phone or cell phone rings and they're on it for 30 minutes while I'm just sitting there, falling asleep. Pisses me off!

People who change lanes without signals or pull out in front of you, just assuming that you'll stop for them.

Teenagers who walk across the street or in the middle of the road, paying no attention to traffic or the signals. I'd love to run over one with my car if I knew they wouldn't die. Teach the bitches a lesson!

BAD ASS KIDS!!

Bad grammar is right up there for me. I can't take it when people constantly misspell words. Lack of punctuation drives me nuts too. It takes away from a person's message, that's for sure.

I also am very annoyed by pretentious people. I'm considered a friendly person with lots of friends, and I wouldn't have it any other way. When I see people who are condescending and snobby to someone, it really chaps my hide. I just don't see how people can be so cruel and dismissive of others.

[WTGH]

Bad spelling.

People who befriend others just so they can take advantage of them.

I know a guy who's loaded and these guys use him. He's their chaffeur, he always pays the bill when they're out, he even got them cell phones!

People who always want to copy my work. I don't mind giving you an answer or two on a test. But when it's the THIRD test and you're blatantly cheating off me I get pissed.

[Scotty]

People who chew with their mouth open. Also people who don't wash their hands after using the restroom. And people who slirp everything they drink.

[Gray Bunny]

Bad punctuation/grammar. When I read friends' emails or see their pages and it's full of errors, it just stands out so badly.

Slow drivers.

Slow walkers.

People who whistle randomly, not even whistling a real song (my dad did this all the time, I wanted to tape his mouth shut)

Witnessing a parent passing on her/his own ignorance onto their children.

BIGGEST PET PEEVE

-When guys in general are uncomfortable with a comfortable, openly gay guy checking them out...

Yeah, you look good. Yeah, I want to bend you over that table and have my way with you or vice-versa. But YEAH, I know you're "straight," "not interested," whatever you say...I see it in your stare. But that doesn't mean I can't have fun checking you out for a brief few seconds. And it doesn't mean I'm gonna ask you out on a date.

I mean, don't run around in your tight Hollister shirts and your gym shorts or wear jeans that show just how tight your a$$$$$e is and expect me NOT to look!

Honorable Mentions

-When people make fun of soaps.

-When people screw me over...you won't win.

-When people try to tell me "what they heard" and they don't know the WHOLE story.

[Gray Bunny]

LOL! Amen sister!

But to add to that... I hate it when GAY guys are instantly rude or don't bother striking up small-talk just because they're afraid you'll misinterpret that into thinking they're interested in you. It's usually the uber-studly or uber-queenie types that do that. It's like, "dayumn, get over yourself! I don't want you!"

[Scotty]

Amen to that! Eespecially the slow drivers part....that just bothers me to no avail. I just want to honk my horn and ram them their bumper to get them to speed up.

Another pet peeve is when people cut you off and pull out in front of you while driving.

Makes my blood boil right now just thinking about it. lol
