Let's hear them...

I can't stand when some says O instead of zero when passing along numerical information.

I feel that my boss's son uses paper clips incorrectly. He puts them in the middle of the page and with the big part facing the front of the page.

I like mine in the left corner with the little part in front.

When you come up behind someone on the highway and they don't get over.

When someone rides my ass on the highway and I can't get over unless I want to significantly reduce my speed.

Thats when I become an asshole and just match speeds with the slower cars in the other lane for a few miles.

Or who wear a non-v-neck undershirt under a dress shirt. This seems to be a particularly Midwestern look.

Not sure if it is strange or not, but it is shocking to me how many people confuse "lose" and "loose." Even highly educated people. It is a very simple concept. The words don't sound alike, they aren't spelled like they should sound alike and have completely different meanings.

I get annoyed by stores that have a "10 items or LESS line," (as opposed to FEWER). I also get annoyed by people who think 14 items is close enough.

I have never noticed anyone ever do this and a few weeks ago went to find a teacher and saw this in his room.

I dislike when guys try to converse with me at the urinal. Dude, we were sitting next to each other at the bar and you didnt say two words to me but now that we have our dicks in our hands u want to talk?

Consistently amazed by how many dudes want to chat in the bathroom.
It's one thing if you're friends but strangers?

Getting out of your clothes for the day, and not putting them in the proper place. If they are dirty, they go in the hamper. If they are not dirty, they go in the closet or the dresser. If you plan to wear them tomorrow or later in the day, then place them nicely somewhere. Don't fucking wad them up and just make a pile b/c you're too fucking lazy to take 5 seconds to do it proper.
