What is one pet peeve you have, that no matter how much you try to overlook it, still drives you up a wall everytime?

Everybody has something, what’s at the top of your list?

    LOUD TALKERS.

    It's a great way to get rid of me.

    I don't like those people either.  I'm very soft spoken, so don't run off.

    People who use net chat sites not to make friends but just to spread their poison.

    I have a list but I do at least try not to let the other person know and I try not to let it influence how I treat them.. 

    Stupidity... as in the ignorant sort, who prefer to believe dogma and misinformation than the truth... people who don't want to learn, who seem fearful of the truth...  who won't do anything actively to learn... 

    Not fond of people who behave badly, like at the cinema today, there were kids in the row behind throwing popcorn that occasionally hit my daughter's head and two women who talked all the way through the film.. I never heard or knew this at the time but I would have said something because I don't believe that people have the right to do as they please if it infringes on other people's rights.. 

    I struggle with people who don't give a dingo's kidney about sustainabilty/wildlife/environmental issues.. it seems to be obtuse and selfish in the extreme...

    Tee that's just for starters :P

    We agree on these things. As an atheist, I sometimes catch hell (pun intended) when I speak frankly about the baloney of religion. Where is the coherent argument for the defense? In the interest of civility, l’ll leave it at that for now. Smh

    The business about indifference to the environment is vexing also, how is it not more important? Don’t people care about the world they’re passing to their descendants?

    People (usually men) who clip their nails in public or at the office.

    EDIT:  Women who put their makeup on in the car or on the bus.  When I see that on my bus, I usually tell them they shouldn't have bothered, it didn't help. This post was edited by SpunkySenior at August 8, 2018 10:41 PM MDT

    I worked with men my whole career and never ever ever once saw a man clip his nails.  That might be a yankee thing.

    Maybe rednecks don't bother to clip their nails at all.

    I doubt you see much from your Ivory Tower looking down on the little people.  Have I mentioned how much I hate snobs?

    Have I mentioned how much I hate rude people. That was not called for what you said to Thriftymaid. ;(

    Neither was what Thriftymaid posted called for.  Why would she think that only a Yankee would clip their nails in public?  That isn't the first time she has made rude and snobbish comments and I'm sure it will not be the last.  People who think they're better than everyone else continue that behavior.

    People speaking in cliches such as, "It is what it is" or "We'll do A and B and go from there." Why not just scratch a blackboard and get it over with?

    Indeed, Stu. Just static. It might be better if they hadn’t spoken at all.

  • Weed trimmer shafts that are a foot too short and cause back pain from being all bent over.  It's like they're designed for short people.

    Then I must buy one.  As far as I can tell the world is made for tall people!  I had this conversation today with some physicians.
