I despise being lied to and dishonesty is uncalled for. I like a guy to put his cards on the table and play it straight if I want to dance then I'll do what I am going to do with the benefit of making an informed decision. "Liar, Liar Pants on Fire" Well that's what peeves me...

What are your pet peeves when it comes to people?
The phrase "pet peeve." The minute someone starts to talk to me about his or her pet, invariably named Peeve, I look to see their information retriever on a leash.

Oh where do I start...

1. People who talk too much - good grief, shut it already.

2. People whose favorite subject is themselves ("enough about me, what do you think about me?"). I used to have people who called me just to talk about themselves... for a good 45 minutes at least. I stopped answering my phone because of people like this.

3. People who think the world owes them a favor (TWOMF - "the world owes me a favor")

4. Gossipers or people who talk about their other friend's personal business to others.

5. People who are chronically late then when they do show up, they'll give a weak and pathetic, "sorry" as if they're really sorry they made you and everyone else wait for their sorry a$$... again.

6. People who don't take responsibility for their lives or their mistakes and they find a way to justify it or defend it.

7. People who drive in unpredictable ways - cutting people off, swerving through traffic like a bozo only to find all that speeding brought you to a red light with me right behind you (I doubt people who drive like this even notice the irony).

8. Chronic contrarians

9. Arrogant people - you know who you are

10. People who spend an hour in front of the mirror... and judges others negatively who don't.

11. Braggers

12. People who aren't happy for you because they aren't happy with themselves.

13. Attention wh*res (stole this from a previous poster

14. People who look down on others because they don't think/act/dress/live/clean/love/believe the same as they do.

15. People who make assumptions or come to conclusions/judgements based on stereotypes, second hand information, little information or just plane stupidity.

16. People who don't think before they talk

17. Whiners drive me up the wall.

I had a friend I who used to start telling me about Jesus around her fifth beer.

You're lucky you made it to the 5th beer at least.....

I've got in touch with an old buddy from way back through FB, now when I see postings from his wife, she can't make a post with out mentioning Jesus.

I come from the belief that your religion is private thing.

But, to each their own.

Agree. What the hell is up with the screamers?,

3: People who regard history, literature or other fact-knowledge as important... try evolving something useful out of shakespeare(and no i don't give a flying F if that(or anything else) is misspelled)

4: People who complain about spelling/grammar/punctuation in texts that are not even supposed to be published. Just because I don't correct-read a F'n internet post doesn't mean I can't when I need to. (people in "3" are usually among these people as well)

5: crowds who take up space in the gym, especially the new-years resolutions, F!!! off, you're gonna do so in a month or two anyways.

6: Doctors who tell you to rest for 2 weeks and come back if nothings changed...

7: Milfs making suggesting comments and flirts without holding up to em.
"If I was a few years younger" BS. Shut it and spread em'.
You are hilarious!!! You had me shocked and cracking up laughing!!! Thanks!

People who see children and the disabled as expendable and disposable.

2. People who stand too close in the check-out line, especially the ones who keep pushing so close that they or their cart keeps hitting me in the ass! Even worse, when their equally ignorant children do it and they are jumping all over the place. For some reason I find this to be more of an issue with certain "immigrant" groups.
YES number 2, I can't stand that.
