hahah! YES! another one i hate is when people say "what i call" or "what i like to call" and it isn't a term they made up, its just a term. let me illustrate- a guy is talking about the weather and he will say "this up here is what i like to call 'clouds'". or you are talking to an FBI profiler and he says "i like to call this sort of murderer a serial murderer". it gives the impression that this is a term that you invented yourself and anyone else who uses it is just riding on your coattails. its one thing to say, "you know, this meal is what i like to call splediferousnessocity". its another to say, "this meal is something i like to call delicious". its just freaking annoying!

Here's another one:

Those who treat others not with simply courtesy, but rather based on their usefulness at that moment.

I know a couple of people like that. If they need something from you, they just will be as pleasant as can be. But they'll push right past you at the supermarket the next day without saying a word.

Two of my biggest pet peeves with people:

When walking for example in the mall, a sidewalk, etc and the person/people do not move over to let walking oncoming traffic by. Share the sidewalk, space, etc. It is so beyond rude. I have had to step aside onto the grass and let the person/people walk by, etc

Or

Similar a person does not say excuse me when passing so beyond rude. Examples mall, grocery store, etc

People who talk with their mouth open, people who chew with their mouth open, people who dribble and don't wipe it up, people who blow their nose with their hand, people who pick their nose, people who hawk up phlegm and spit it on the floor - all of these are just disgusting behavior

It makes me mad when people you don't know (mostly men I've noticed) get into a lift (elevator) and don't face the doors, but stand so they are facing the side wall, so they are essentially staring at you the whole way, it's so uncomfortable especially when it's just 2 of you in there. Face the doors you f-wits!

Wow, I didnt how many pet peeves I had until I read this read. I found myself agreeing with almost every comment. lol. My latest pet peeve? People that feel the need to let others know on facebook what types of behaviors and/or comments will cause them to unfriend people. Every time I see this, I have an urge to do exactly what will get me unfriended.

I've seen this a lot in the past few months. These posts of ......anyone that does this or that.....Most of it is stupid sheet and seems childish. If you are getting game requests then personally tell the person that sent you one, to stop. If you love Taylor Swift and are going to get your panties in a wad because someone doesn't care for her music then realize that not everyone likes the same things as you do. Sheesh. If someone annoys me on facebook and I dont wish for them to be on my page, I delete them. I put out an announcement first.

You reminded me - the people that are so engrossed in their texting and walking that they don't notice that other people are trying to maneuver around them to get somewhere. Also, people that practically let the door slam in your face as you walk out behind them. I know it's not nice, but part of me hopes that people this unaware get pick-pocketed.

Another one - people who shoehorn their religion into every single situation.

Someone who talks constantly and never shuts up. When riding in a vehicle will read every sign on the road...outloud of coarse! Blah, Blah, Blah.

Servers and cooks who have dirty fingernails, dirty clothes, dirty hair.

Braggerts.

People who always want more of everything at a restaurant, extra this, extra that and they want it no charge, if they have to pay...they'll pass. They are the same ones who are sticking sugar, creamers, rolls, silverware and anything else they can get in their purses.

Talking on the cell when sitting on the pot in a public restroom.
