Bad parkers. Slow drivers. People who indicate (use blinkers) wrong/late/not at all. Those loud obnoxious motorcycles. People with in-ear earphones that I can hear music from (I'd let you know except I'm pretty sure you'd have to be legally deaf at that volume and I don't know sign language). That one guy who sits facing the opposite direction on the train to everyone else. That the iPad Mini Retina isn't shipping for a month. When I run out of my favourite chilli sauce. On Monday here (Sunday in the US), and the tech blogs haven't any new material so I have nothing to read at work on my break. Smokers who pollute my air, my public spaces. When I want to go shopping for new clothes but leave empty handed because I'm so freaking indecisive.

Gosh. What an unremittingly depressing, ill-tempered and relentlessly negative thread. Exactly the kind of thing that just adds to the miasma of misery on a wet Sunday morning.....

Get over yourselves, guys. Most of what you describe are peeves, or petty inconveniences in the wider scheme of things.......

Honestly, reading it, I cannot but come to the conclusion that the thread should perhaps, be re-titled "What ANNOYS You The Most In My Safe, Boring Corner Of The First World"

I couldn't agree more! There is an evident lack of perspective on the magnitude of importance of things, and an inability to discriminate the trivial from the truly important.
 
Pretentious forum members crapping on threads for no reason.


(Original Post) So, what some of your pet peeves? Your annoyances...

Indeed.

I somewhat agree but people need to vent their negativity sometimes (it's not good to hold everything inside) and this is a good venue to do it where they are not hurting others. Also, as much as I would like people to focus on the positive, I can't see criticizing people for their beliefs on what's important in their own life.

People can't discuss the little things in life that annoy them evEn on an anonymous forum like this? Only someone with cancer or who lives In a third world country can ever complain. Here's my annoyance: anyone who ever posts anything close to: "first world problems". Yeah,they are, get over it.
 
People who just won't get to the point when they want to ask you something. It's especially bad when they call you up and do it, interrupting whatever you were in the middle of.

Yes! This is it for me too. It seems to happen a lot at work... people wander in and spend ten minutes telling a life story in detail to finally just circle back around to asking for a simple form. :rolleyes:
 
Three annoyances:

-People who believe in Karma.

-Those who add an extra space at the end of a sentence with an exclamation point.
Example:

Pontiac fans.....

The brand is dead. Move on already. Either buy the exact same car that wears the bow tie or go to another automaker......:mad:
