Thought we had a thread for this, but I looked, and we don't. List your every day pet peeves, whether it's in real life or teh internetz.

1) "5$ instead of $5" - The dollar sign goes at the beginning of the number, idiots.

Dumbasses who interpret posts to suit their needs.

People who get off on an exit ramp, wait until you are bearing down on them, doing 55 mph (200 feet away) and decide to slowly pull out in front of you. They've had probably 5-6 seconds to pull out but wait until you are right on top of them, then they drive 35 mph.

Assholes who adopt kittens from an animal shelter then throw them out in the street, to reproduce, after they lose their "cuteness" factor.

People who think being on time doesn't apply to them. Or ppl that skate by as "I'm just always late". Lazy, rude, and self importance. My time is just as valuable as yours dipshit.

People walking on crowded sidewalks, oblivious to people walking behind them, and stop or turnaround suddenly.

Related to this are the "leisurely strollers" walking beside each other, taking up the whole sidewalk and making it difficult to get around them.

People who use the turn lane to get around you at a light. I don't drive slow, and you were RIGHT BEHIND me. This is just a complete dick move....I like to give them the thumbs up when I pull up behind them at the next light.

Coworkers, mostly sales reps, who need something and convey it by forwarding you an email chain saying "see below."



FUCKING SUMMARIZE WHAT YOU NEED AT THE TOP OF THE EMAIL YOU LAZY FUCK.

Good God, YES!! Especially the large groups. Cannot stand when I am walking to catch a connection flight behind them and they are going slow, then decide to just stop to converse with each other about their destination...

I tend to bump them and give them a look of disgust for stopping with hundreds of people behind them.

Or you're walking behind someone and they stop, dead in their tracks, to answer a text.

I had a brain fart in like 3rd grade and messed up the dollar sign placement. My teacher called me up in front of the whole class and pointed out how dumb I was. Everyone laughed like a bastard at me.

People who don't get out of thee left lane. IDGAF if you're doing 85, if i want to pass you, move the fuck over. At night I will high beam people. Most of my pet peeves involve other drivers.

Also - I 100% agree with CoA.

Awwww.........there was a guy that I worked with who would actually take raw eggs, whisk them in a bowl, and microwave them at my office. The friggin pig would themn leave the bowl in the sink, soaking in water. I'm usually the first to get to the office so I'd usually start the dishwasher. The eggs would never come out of the bowl after soaking and I'd have to clean up after this pig.

Depending on what the food is, even a good dishwasher won't clean it. See my above post about the eggs.

I don't go to a commercial gym anymore but you can appreciate this one, people who sweat on the weight benches and don't towel them off.

BTW, this should sum up the entire thread. You could add in poor/stupid/LAZY people but I count lazy people as stupid.

People who get in a lane that they know is going to end and then try to cut in front of you. And people who are too fucking stupid to get in the correct turn lane. I work by a mall. On my way back from lunch today I'm getting off the highway and the two left lanes of traffic (towards the mall) are backed up about a mile. The dumb **** in front of me in the right lane drives past all the people in line, all the way up to the light and then puts on her left blinker. You stupid whore! No, they aren't going to let you in. And now I'm stuck behind your dumb ass.

This. Cant stand people who aren't punctual. Sad thing is, it seems like most people aren't. Then some give the "I like to be fashionably late" bs. So when I give them a time to be somewhere, I always tell them earlier than what it needs to be.

That's a good one. Although sometimes they aren't lazy, just too stupid to understand what is being requested.
