I have a ton of pet peeves - I started an on-going list on my blog today. Among the ones I haven't listed yet....
bible thumpers, die-hard Christians who try to convert me or convince me the Bible is anything more than a story book.....
not washing your hands in a public restroom....
not using the toilet liners in a public restroom...
prudes - people who would never dream of having a healthy sexual appetite and label others as whores for having one....
mine are as diverse as I am! How about you?

not flushing the toilet.
seriously - i work with attorneys, auditors, accountants - freaking professional people who can't even seem to flush the toilet and make sure it all goes down after giving birth to a 10-pound piece of pooh. jesus!! yuck!!!!-
@aspot and sjtavo--I know--they stand up because they don't want to sit on the toilet seat (never mind that they could cover it with the tissue covering most toilets provide). I don't have a problem with not wanting to sit on the seat--but please ladies, clean up your mess!
I have actually scolded women that I've caught in the act. When they walk out and I walk in to see their spattering of pee--I have been known to turn around and ask them to please clean up their mess like a grown woman.
Absolutely disgusting.

Two of mine, although I have many.
1. waiting in line to pay. like at the grocery store or any retail place. I have a take my turn patience, but not for more than a couple of minutes.
2. bad grammar. why can't people right good when its a reflection of theirselves. -
1) Robotic customer service promts that force to to talk into the phone.
2) People who tel u all their problems but can't listen to yours for shit.
3) Men who think, "Hey beautiful" is some kind of magic phrase that makes them attractive.
4) Wal Mart...anything to do with it.
5) Women who refuse to wear the correct size and force us all to look at thier muffin top.-
hahahahahaha!! I hate muffin tops!! Don't women look in the mirror before they vacate the house? I try to make sure whatever I have on is flattering and won't make someone want to poke me to see it all jiggle LMAO
@ mariosa - it's a generic term that men use because they think it's going to have some profound effect on us....as if a man calling us beautiful when he resembles a mountain troll is going to get us weak in the knees... and then they get pissy when we ignore them!

or a psycoanalyst who knows the rights words all the time.
Some nice compliment, simple and straight are good,-
Excuse me?? How is wanting a man to TALK TO ME asking for too much?? Thats insane! Any man too retarded to hold a quick, "hello, who/how are you, my name is, blah blah" conversation with a woman without feeling the need to play on her looks dosen't deserve to date me. Period. And I am far from difficult.

@mariosa our point is that for a man to approach and say "Hey Beautiful" does nothing for us. I pretty much equate it with a man approaching me and telling me I have beautiful eyes....as he stares at my chest. Wow, thanks for making me feel so special, please let me through so I can go pee. For a man to strike up a conversation, seem to be interested in us and actually pay attention - and not try to win us over with compliments is what's going to do it.

I dont say to doesnt talk, talk is nice, talk about many things, interesting things, a smart woman value a good conversation but sometimes the man do all the job, i dont know in Usa but here latin people are very seductive with words and nice conversation, maybe americans talks a little but give them a chance, by the way if you want a man dont think in a friend too.

When I tell people not to do something and they do it anyway.
Don't like when people lye for no reason, but a lye doesn't care who tells it.
When people use the restroom and they don't wash there hands.
When people call me and I'm sleep is the worse of them all. I answer the phone they'll say what are you doing, I tell them I'm sleep they will say I'll call you back later. -
Self-righteous snobs with bad grammar and poor toilet etiquette who don't realize they're too ugly to give women compliments

a dumb who think is smart because talk a little difficult with effort because read a couple of books, smart is a mind not a book or two phrases repeated, I cant stand those dumb people
an old man who think age give him smartness and intelligence, thats funny people sometimes. Well japanese think old people is smart and have respect for oldies. -
Interesting that most all the participants so far have been women. Are men more easy going about pet peeves? I find things irritating sometimes when they're happening but I let them go so quickly that it's hard to remember. But now that I'm on BC I do remember getting peeved with the adolescent types and people who think they're witty but just come across as rude and snippish. This discussion hasn't gone in that direction. Nice.
