People who scream or shout for no reason. I happen to live in the centre of the city near all the pubs, LUCKILY I can sleep through the drunk people shouting most of the time. I really can't stand it though. Last summer I watched a WC football match at a place with lots of people. Some of them were shouting really loudly for no apparent reason, which really infuriated me! I can understand that you shout and scream out of joy when there's a goal, but for no reason? That just annoys me.
Oh, I forgot to mention my main one: people who litter. Not just that, but who make a hip thing out of it, tossing a cheeto bag out the window of their car with a little smirk. Little bastards who walk right past a trash can with an empty 40oz of beer and drop it into a parking lot, then look over at you and grin. You know who you are.
New pet peeve:
people who work on the streets, doing quantitative research for a company. They suddenly approach you and start asking questions or ask to fill out forms. Last time I walked through town I saw about 5 of them, and one of them tried to stop me. I feel very awkward when they do it.
Ooops, wrong place (again) I thought this was to do with pets (meow/woofbark) and associated peeves (puking on carpet/smelling - err the pet, not me)
Only if they were NT pets now i have seen where the forum is ( NT/AS interaction ). I think that they are not NT. Diagnosis for pets any one? how about that for a topic.
[muttering from off stage]
- Good grief, the jokes DO get worse
I have a fish (a carp) that likes it's chin being tickled and does "Flipper" impersonations (swims backwards with head out of water). No really, it's true!
I'll think about something on topic, and "I shall return"
[More muttering from wings]
- don't bother.
When people emphasize the word "literally" as an intensifier in a story they are telling when they mean figuratively or virtually.
Thank you. I feel better now.
I hate when people say "aluminum" instead of "aluminium"
Actually, Humphry Davy (the guy who discovered the element) called it "aluminum"...presides in the United States. It
Hah! Now I understand why that fellow I worked with once always said: "aluminium" in stead of "aluminum".
Oh, Yank here... Must be a few brits over here and a few yanks over there!!!
Peeves:
The definition drafted by the medical community for AS/HFA...
Salespeople trying to sell you something you don't need...
No edit button... on AFF... oh, AND, the typo I’d like to fixd...
Okay... I'll admit it... My President... (I claim... "Freedom of Speech")
The "sneak" in cats... (Why is my pillow warm?) Arrfff Arrfff !!!
-Car salesmen type of people. (Say a guidance counselor trying to get you to enroll in their school within minutes of getting the first call form them EVER about the school--stop trying to rush me!)
-People who follow something blindly and without question.
-My Mom's dog will eat cat poop if she can get to the litterbox unnoticed. (So disgusting!)
Also, "literally" being used when "figuratively" is what's actually meant. "She was literally foaming at the mouth!" or "He was literally bouncing off the walls!" Is that even possible? The human body doesn't lend itself to bouncing, exactly. It just sort of goes splat and bleeds.
People who are constantly pessimistic, to the point where all they ever talk about is how much everything in the whole world sucks like a singularity.
People-- complete strangers--who see fit to speculate about my sanity/mental faculties/sobriety really loudly...in public...where I can easily hear them.
"HONEY, I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT GIRL!"
(Maybe, but it's not deafness.)
XD you made my morning with those.nice imagery.
People who are constantly pessimistic, to the point where all they ever talk about is how much everything in the whole world sucks like a singularity.
The opposite is annoying too, people who are constantly optimistic and happy. They drive me crazy.
-My Mom's dog will eat cat poop if she can get to the litterbox unnoticed. (So disgusting!)
My grandma's dog would do just the same thing!! That's uncanny!
I hate people who say that you can be mean to animals because they "aren't people". There was a case a couple of years back about some guys who took some kittens and set one on fire, and tied the other to the back of their car and dragged it along until it died in agony, and all they got was $1000 fine. I just thought that was disgusting!
Those kind of people should be locked up for life. I'm serious.
People that complain and complain about their situation and never do anything about it.
people chewing with their mouth open - guy at work does this drives me crackers.
The kids that climb over the fence at the back of my car park who drop litter and talk and swear really loudly and if you confront them just give you smart alec remarks.
Not being able to think of a reply to the little monsters
toilet roll being the wrong way round on the holder.
people not hearing me or not listening to what I actually say
odd,my dog eats kitty poop too..
I dont think "pet peeves" meant pets.
