    Haha! I hate when people talk about the "flavor" of a candle, too!!!

    I don't think I have that many pet peeves, I'm just an irritable person, so it depends on the day!

    I think one of the worst, though, is ignorant people in the grocery store.

    You know the ones....they bring their friends to Walmart, where they walk s l l o o o w w   down all the aisles, laughing and being loud and obnoxious. Then they get in line and have their friends run back and forth picking up "forgotten" items. Ugh! I like to do my shopping fast, and they just put a damper on the whole day!

    When I still had roommates, my biggest pet peeve was when they would leave dirty dishes in the sink! Ahhhh it drove me nuts! I couldn't comprehend why they couldn't rinse the dish off and put it in the dishwasher that is 2 feet away...it is NOT hard! It was even worse when a pot or pan was dirty and left in the sink...and then you needed to use it! I always ended up breaking down and cleaning everything for them...begrudgingly...

    Hm, I'm trying to think of my most hated pet peeves & I'd have to say that people who don't drive inside the line (like swirving all the time, or staying more on one side of the road than in the middle) drive me CRAZY!!

    & people who don't email/call/txt you back when YOU KNOW they've seen it & obviously they're ignoring you at the time because they don't want to deal with you.

    & LOUD, obnoxious girls...& people who have to tell their whole life story on FB
    (like we really care about what you're doing all day, EVERY freakin day)

    I have tons more! Just can't think of it at the moment!

    I also hate when my FI says ruined like..."RURNT"...it's pronounced RUINED!

    What a great post and a lot of mine are similar to others - yet there are still those people out there!

    1. Fake people

    2. Bad grammer

    - the ones I hate the most:

    - I seen - it's I have seen or I saw!

    - You did good - It's you did WELL or you did a good job (this is everywhere in the media right now and so I know it's not going any where but it got drilled into me as a kid and now it makes me cringe every time I hear it!)

    3. Ignorant people

    4. A dirty bathroom/kitchen

    - can't stand dishes in the sink crumbs on the floor or a dirty toilet - ewwwww!

    I hate when people either don't know or refuse to acknowledge the difference between "their," "there," and "they're," or "its" and "it's," or generally do not write in a readable manner.  Using "utilize" when you should use "use" or confusing "lay" and "lie" is understandable.  Not understanding basic contractions, and I spot at least two in this thread already, sends the signal to everyone else that you are stupid, and it drives me up the walls.  It's a third grade skill, people.

    I also hate line cutters, who are rampant in my law school at lunch where there are limited quantities of food.

    21. ppl who swear they're being hated on when they don't have s--t to be hated on for....like are you for real right now?

    22. women who swear their man is so great...when I know for a fact that he beats on you, is drug & alcohol addict, is a lousy father, is all talk and no action, is a cheater, is a thief, and all around treats you like trash.....honey if you think thats great then you deserve that.

    23. ditto on the no emailing, texting. calling back thing....I get beyond irritated when that happens to me.

    24. ppl who work in customer service whose attitudes suck a**.....its called customer service!! its what your suppose to do.....duh!

    25. ppl who work in a store but dont know where anything is...um and you work because????

    26. telemarketers

    ... I honestly don't have that many pet peeves compared to the rest of you! Mostly just whistling and people who stop in the middle of the aisle at a store. Oh and people who try way too hard- too cool, too hip, too unique, too whatever. I've known enough people who were genuinely off-beat that people who try just get on my nerves. Everything else doesn't affect me that much.

    Edit: and children. I don't like them at all.

    I have so many that i Know I'll forget a lot here:

    Number 1 without a doubt - When people say "I graduated high school or college". You don't graduate high school you graduate FROM high school. Or, maybe you should go back English and learn that.

    2 - When you are running (or walking) down the side walk and some guy hoots and hollers at you. Oh yes, that's EXACTLY what will win my heart!

    3 - Christmas lights on deciduous trees.

    4 - When people call Sex and the City, Sex IN the city. ESPECIALLY when they say its their favorite show

    5 - I agree with Lee about obnoxious girls and people on Facebook

    6 - Bicyclists

    My pet peeves (alteast the ones I can think of right now) are mostly related to driving. I HATE it when folks don't use their turn signals. I mean, it's right there, all you have to do is move your freaking finger... I also hate it when people cut me off when there is no one behind me and then proceed to drive two miles an hour. GabGal reminded me of one I have about bicyclists. I really don't like it when people put their small children in those little buggy things (sorry I don't know what they're called) and pull the kid behind them when they ride their bikes on the roads. It seems really dangerous and irresponsible.

    omg i have a ton of pet peeves. biggest ones: 

    1) when you KNOW someone has a cell phone and they don't answer it. Honestly-- there is just 0 reason to not be able to get hold of anyone who is in the USA within 6 hours. 

    2) people who don't like making plans. no, i do not want to "play it by ear." imo that just means you want to keep your options open. 

    3) people ahead of you in line who want to chat with the sales clerk-- really?? I have places to be move it along. 

    4) all sales people. enough said.

    5) people who don't take babies that are crying out of the restaurant

    6) poor grammar, in general. Biggest offenses: "I want to conversate with you" (it's converse! or better yet-- talk!!), their/there/they're, your/you're, or the use of basically any big word that you don't know the meaning of

    28. When someone I'm not talking to interrupts my conversation with their thoughts and opinions ( i don't know you and i wasn't talking to you)

    29. When the parents at my daycare cent seem to turn their child's medical paperwork in and I have to ask for it a million times...I even had one parent go so far as to sign her own childs physical form herself....wtf? no!! no!! no!! First of all I have a degree in the medical field so I know that a doctor would not fill out a form in two different colors of ink....and second...take your dang kid to the doctor...stop being an irresponsible parent!! ugh!!

    30. When kids curse like sailors....and they don't care that they're around adults as long as it isn't their parents...wth are your parents teaching you?

    31. Sprint Customer Service...while I love the cell service....their customer service department is a$$!! I tell them off at least twice a month if not more.

    32. Ppl who leave their Christmas lights up well into the new year and still turn them on!!

    33. Ppl who yell at their young children in stores because they're asking for candy....he's only 2...he's suppose to like candy...you can say no a lot nicer.

    34. Women who can't do anything without their man...they even attempt to bring him to girls night out.........uh no!!

    ooo I got a million of them...

    I hate when other people bag my groceries.  I'll walk from aisle to aisle in the grocery store to make sure I don't get one with a bagger.

    @gilneas- thats funny bc i hate when there ISNT a bagger... because then someone behind me is waiting to ring their stuff up until my stuff is bagged and i feel all rushed. Although I *do* hate when the baggers do it wrong. I used to work at a grocery store and I know they're supposed to teach you things like: raw meat goes in a separate bag, as do cleaning products! when I get home and see raw meat in the same bag as fruit... ugh.

    I'm new to the wedding bee (hi everyone!) but I thought this is a good place to start!

    My pet peeves (in no particular order)

    -People who have no common courtesy: If I hold the door open for you at least say thank you. Don't walk through without holding the door for yourself!

    -Those who think they deserve respect but don't dish it out themselves.

    -Kids who are screaming bloody murder and running around in stores, parents no where to be found OR their parents don't care.

    -Agressive drivers.  Being up my behind only will make me slow down more!

    -People who don't acknowledge you in passing.  Look up from the ground and say hi!

    -People who cut in line

    -Calling a company and having to go through 20 steps before talking to a live person

    -People with a sense of entitlement.  I work with 1200 lawyers and 90% of them feel they are entitled! All book knowledge, no street smarts!

    -The subway during rush hour!

    I don't have as many as some of you gals. ;)  I think my main pet peeve is people who are chronically late.  If you're always keeping everyone else waiting, then you're basically saying that their time isn't as valuable as yours.  Uncool.  Oh and people who don't wipe off the equipment at the gym when they're done.  They're called germs, people!  Clean it off!!

    Just 2 things:

    - Rude people
    There is no reason for rudeness. You cannot help your skin color, you cannot help your social status or your intelligence. But you and only you have complete control of your etiquette.

    - Fake people.
    I want you to be honest with me. If you do not like me that's ok. I don't really care.

    Minutiae    May 2011  

    People who call me "honey," "sweetheart," etc. Especially women. It's degrading and obnoxious and sounds like you're talking down to me. The only exceptions are MinMan and little old grandmas.

    Aggressive drivers! AGH! Tailgaters, people who don't pass in the passing lane, people who don't use their turn signals, all of it. Like, if there's a bee who's reading this now and knows they drive like this? I would totally call the police on you and report you for aggressive driving. And I may or may not hope you get into a car accident. Grrrrrr.

    Advertising in general. I leave the room when there are commercials on TV, rip the ads out of magazines, hang up on telemarketers, etc. 

    Credit card solicitations. I've burned them before, doused them in water, and once mailed a form back to them that was turned into confetti.

    That's pretty much it!
