Post Your Pet Peeves

[God of War]

~ Post Your Pet Peeves ~

Post your top pet peeves. They can be both movie-related, real life. Or both. But first, what is a pet peeve?

Definition: A pet peeve (pet hate) is a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to him or her, to a greater degree than others may find it.

Example: Pet peeves often involve specific behaviors of someone close, such as a spouse or significant other. These behaviors may involve disrespect, manners, personal hygiene, relationships, and family issues. A key aspect of a pet peeve is that it may well seem acceptable to others. For example, a supervisor may have a pet peeve about people leaving the lid on the copier up and react angrily, be annoyed when others interrupt when speaking, or by messy desks of his or her subordinates. That same supervisor may witness employees coming into work late, and not feel any annoyance whatsoever. Link

Some of my pet peeves are as follows. And they are in no real particular order.

• People who mistreat, abuse, and are deliberately cruel to animals.
• People who mistreat, abuse, and are deliberately cruel to people.
• People who are full of shit and are always up in your face. Period.
• People who never shut the fuck up. Those who ramble on endlessly.
• People who know they're pissing you off and continue to piss you off.
• People who jay walk on purpose, and who are on their phones.
• People who are always on their phone (non-hands free) while driving.
• Drunk drivers. Dangerous drivers. Unlicensed drivers who have killed people.
• People who are in your personal space while smoking.
• Completely unfair court case verdicts.
• Corrupt police, and state figures. Politicians in general.
• Child abuse. Baby abuse. And family abuse.
• The abuse of the elderly, sick, and dying.
• Tail-gaters. Speedsters. People who are dickheads on the roads.
• People who leech off others good will. Sponges, if you will.
• People who wrought the system, and claim money that's not due to them.
• GST tax. Inflation. Carbon tax.
• People who mock, and/or make fun of retarded, crippled, and less fortunate people.
• People who have no regard for our planet and it's frail condition.
• People who steal from charity bins/shops/stalls. Thieves in general.
• People who deliberately have as many children as possible so they can claim welfare.
• Dickhead boyfriends who are constantly beating up by their female partners.
• Pedophiles. Murderers. Rapists. etc etc
• People who play shitty music really loud to get noticed.
• Limited 12 month warranty's on expensive electrical goods.
• People who cling to their mobile (cell) phone as if it were a third lung.
• People who bullshit to your face. Constantly.
• Friends who take advantage of, and use other friends to get what they want.
• Crappy cinemas with over the top admission prices.
• People who ignore you constantly even though you repeatedly ask them questions.
• Being belittled, berated, and generally put down by others.
• Having a tradition, culture shoved in your face 24/7/365 when you're not interested.
• People who pre-judge you, and act like their God over you.
• Destructive weather.
• High humidity.
• Julia Gillard. Nuff said.
• Seeing homeless people makes me sad.
• Money which is wasted on shitty films.
• People who you help, but they never help you in return.
• People who totally ignore others in need.
• People who swear way too much. It's highly irritating.
• Selfish people in general.
• Unnecessary movie sequels which suck!
• People who claim to know everything, but in reality, know nothing much.
• People who desecrate graves.
• People who say something is crap, but don't even know what they're talking about.
• Constipation/ diarrhea. Reflux
• The Twilight saga films.
• People who hate the original Star Trek for no valid reason.
• People who blame fast food outlets for their weight problems.
• Highly presumptuous people.
• People who whine about everything.
• People who can't support their own bad habits.

That will do for now. It may seem like I have alot of pet peeves. But that's only some of them. What about you?

This is a major one for me but I've always been a very quiet person, add to this those who say things like "awkward silence" when you're just chilling/admiring a view/contemplating life etc.

"Background noise".
Radio stations that have some mong rambling on the majority of the time.
News programs that have nonsensical segments about hamsters that watch cricket or some such bullshit.
Third person/over the shoulder games.
TV shows that use the monster/case/murder/turd of the week formula and lack a real arc.
Ebay forcing you to accept paypal and charging you for the privilege of using their site and then again for being forced to use their fucking payment system.
Reality TV.

[poopontheshoes7]

PEOPLE.

[blankpage]

When people younger than I am refer to me as "kid".

That's about it.

I just found that one to be a bit comical, considering the length of your list!! (Not poking fun at you at all, but seeing that listed and the fact that it was 3rd of like 50 was pretty comical)!

My biggest one is people that don't use their blinkers.

2nd is any wannabe gangster, whether they are white, black, asian, mexican.. any race.

People that don't put the divider up at the check out for the next person.

People that watch Teen Mom, Jersey Shore, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, any Housewife show (Reality, not Desperate), Toddlers & Tiaras... basically any reality show that isnt a competition show (Like Survivor or Hells Kitchen... shows like that) and just showcases supremely untalented people who deserve to be in jail, not on TV. (And It is the People that watch these shows that annoy me, because anyone would be on TV if they could, for that money... but it's the people that watch the crap that perpetuate their fame)

Yep. I can relate to all of that. And, dude. We get ads on tv every 15 minutes. lol

[jackson13]

People who whistle when they talk.

At dinner tonight there was some guy near us that was talking non-stop and he literally sounded like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFZKgzg8Dq8

My god.

[AspectRatio1986]

For me right now its definitely ppl just posting way too much drama on facebook. Some users treat it as a personally diary instead of a social network that sends the info out to hundreds of people. Some things I just don't understand how you could share to the public like that, I guess being an attention whore(s) is to blame.

Really? They seem a lot more frequent for some reason.

That's bullshit. I love people. My view is that with every interaction with a person I'll strive to make it a more pleasant day for them. And guess what, my job rocks, my mates rock, I get free beer etc etc etc.

Yes. Really. That's one reason I stopped watching TV many years ago. Commercials.

Is it? So, now you're speaking for everyone it seems, when infact you don't know what it's like for every individual in any given circumstances at any given time, anywhere. Except for your own immediate environment, and your close-knit circle of friends/family//relatives/etc. That's being short-sighted on your part, man. All I can say is that you must be one of the lucky few, and you are in with the right crowd, so to speak. More power to you. Booyah! As I stated above. People ARE shit-heads for the most-part. And that's a fact, not an opinion. Just to throw a few colorful and undesirable traits in your direction here. And a very long list of pet peeves here. Some people are decent. But the greater majority of them are dead-set wankers of varying degrees. No matter what color, creed, location, disposition, sex, religion, or any other factor. People are fuckheads. And that's all there is to it. Deny it all you want. But that's exactly how it is. Tell me it's otherwise while being truthful at the same time.

[Exophrine]

All of these things, you will find in Shepard Book's "Special Hell"

This.

I was just having a conversation with people last night on how "young mothers" think they have the right to SAY whatever the fuck they want now and it's of course on facebook. They write about everything and think its ok to talk about every little thing their child does.

"Oh, Cameron just fell off the bed and hurt his arm but he's alright now." That's an actual status.

Unfriend.

[athf1980]

when people buy movies in fullscreen movies on dvd[when the movie was not filmed in fullscreen]

little kids at adult movies

movies or tv shows are colored when originally filmed in black and white.

walmart not selling unedited music

overly-competitive people winning is the only thing that matters

people who overswear

[Shinigami]

I don't like those commercials with the pig going 'wheeeeeeeeee wheeeeeeeee'. Nails on a chalk board.

Misery loves company?

[jackson13]

People who make noise when they yawn.

Yawning does not require the use of vocal chords. Not even a little bit.

So every time my dad yawns and goes AHHHHHHHHHHHHHWHOOWHOOWHOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO he's just being a loud asshole.

Which is always the case, but still, I've seen/heard other people do it too. Absolutely unnecessary.

I'll add abusive public transport inspectors to the list.

Thugs with badges. Fuck those guys.

- people with thick East Coast, Southern, and 'Ghetto' accents (obviously, I'm starting to get petty now, so I'll leave it at this... )

[Bondgirl]

Well l have to agree also that people can be a pain in many ways but there can be good in some too

[God of War]

This a good point. What people do when they're behind the wheel of a car, but not concentrating on driving.

1. Mobile phone.
2. Eating.
3. Drinking.
4. Masturbating.
5. One hand on the wheel (see 2,3,4).
6. Reading.
7. Perving.
8. Selecting music.
9. All of the above

[Mr. Guiltless]

People when you ask them what kind of music do they like say, "Everything."
People who give me shit in any form for smoking.
People minding my business in general.
People who have a problem with someone discretely blowing their nose at a dinner table(ever eat at an Indian or a Thai restaurant faggots?)
People who claim not to be religious but who claim to be spiritual, believe in karma, etc.
Statists
Predatory Salesman(not just sales; but all walks of life)
Non-Peacekeeping Police(or 99% of cops)
Bullies of any kind
Vehicles without mufflers or that are just plain noisy
gangsta wannabes
People who just have kids out of boredom who can't afford it(very big in the American South, which indeed is boring as hell).

[Gordon]

My pet peeve is assholes that edit their posts weeks after the fact.

[Bondgirl]

One I hate is when people talk behind your back this domes happens at work and then someone else feels sorry for you and tells you what is happening it can be upsettiig sometimes

Well said Mr of War, this is my pet peeve for the whole of December.

[blknge89]

THE SOUND OF POTS AND PANS BEING MOVED AROUND AND FALLING DOWN, BANGING INTO CORNERS, why do they have to sound like that!

[Bondgirl]

I hate teenagers who break and wreak things when they are full of alcohol

[Beard_of_Meat]

People who don't use turn signals when turning.

People who tailgate (Do that shit to me and I brake check your ass hard)

People who talk during films/use their phones.

People who let their kids wear those fucking shoes that light up to the theaters.

People who see someone they know at a grocery store and decide that the best place to catch up and have a conversation is in the middle of the damn aisle.

People who just let their kids scream at the grocery store/or just let them run wild like it's a playground.

People who think that because you have tattoo's and they have tattoo's that you are some how buddies.

People who assume that all metal (especially Death/Black) is just screaming and noise.

Car's with rim's. (seriously!? that shit looks retarded)

People who cannot park.

People who litter.

People who abuse animals.

People who abuse children/the elderly.

and the biggest one in my book is people who are fake.

[oh-dae-su]

In no particular order...

- People who sing in a high pitched voice (to themselves.)
- People who hum in a high pitched voice.
- People who shake their leg(s) when sitting (Free pass if you have a tired leg.)
- People who make fun of your music then try to convert you to theirs.
- People who make fun of metal because "you can't understand what they're saying."
- Whining/ crying babies/ kids.
- People who are always changing their relationship status.
- People who feel the need to kiss loudly.
- People who feel the need to moan loudly.
- People who abuse animals (especially cats.)
- 95% of teenagers.
- People who try to give smokers the guilt trip by telling them smoking is wrong.

And that's all I could think of.
