We might have one of these, but fuck it. I'm bringing it back to life...maybe. Anyways. Put something down that's basically a pet peeve. It might make you feel better.

Peeve: It bothers the crap out of me when people chew their gum over dramatically.
 
When someone is talking to me when I am clearly busy. When someone demands I say something when I really have nothing to say.
 
When people interrupt me while I'm reading.

When my opinion is disregarded out of hand, as though I do not think before I offer my opinion in all seriousness.

People who try to use height to intimidate me.

People with square faces.

Bad music that sounds like it should be a porno sound track.

People with really high pitched voices.

Sales people who do not leave me alone when I'm browsing.

Little dogs.

Cats that pee on things.

The smell of ferrets.

People bitching about how "if you come to our country the least you can do is learn our language."

People who bump their request threads too much.

People who don't look before they cross the street.

Wet socks.

Getting mustard on white shirts.

Spilling beer on slacks.

Smelling like liquor the morning after I've been out drinking.

People who don't blink.

People who stare.

The sound cars make when running low on break fluid.

Politicians.
 
People who overuse the word "chill."

Sudden, high pitched noises.

Being touched by people I've never met before.

The phrase "hot and bothered."

The phrase "wet and messy."

The word "wad," as in, "shot my wad."

Tardiness.

Men who hit on women by shouting at them from across the street.

People who talk shit without knowing shit.

People who cannot take what they dish out.

Armchair strategists.

People in the closet.

Table wine.

Pabst Blue Ribbon.

People who eat obscenely loudly.

When people turn up the bass too loudly in their car while driving. How such people can stand that 'thump thump' amazes me. And it amazes me that any of these people can actually hear. It hurts my ears terribly whenever someone has done this and then I'm stuck having to wait beside them at a red light or some such.
 
Having the queer agenda shoved down my throat. I'm all for equal rights but force it on me and my indifference stays. o__o

This one bloke

People who can't take my honesty

Cats

Cat lovers who try and show me the error of my ways

When people don't shut my door behind them

When people purposely talk loudly on their phones

Most bus drivers

People who try and tell me why I should adore gingers

'Internet tough guys'

People who lie for the fuck of it

People who tell me off for using words like cunt and then go ahead and refer to people as dicks

When people constantly whine about not getting rps

Feminism

Misogynists

Being called 'babe'

People who have to have the last word

When professors basically read off the powerpoint

Tas who take forever to hand back your papers

Those art snobs

Anything that has to do with Glee and musicals in general. Might be some rare exceptions but I can't think of any atm.

When a person can't take no for an answer

Bible thumpers

All I can think of for now. ;/
 
Whenever I read "through the ringer," it makes me want to throttle someone.

It's "wringer." A wringer is one of those hand-cranked devices on old-timey washbasins you'd use to squeeze the water out of your clothes. It's wringing the water out of your clothes so you don't have to do it by hand. They had a great way of fucking up all the buttons and buckles and pretty much anything hard, because they squashed everything so tight to get the water out. So something that's been "through the wringer" means something that's been mangled by its experiences.

There's no such thing as a "ringer" that you go through. What, you've been through something that rings a bell? What's that even mean?

So that's one of my big pet peeves. I don't even know why, other than the misuse of language.

Yah. Completely puts me off reading if I come across these. Goddammit.

People who don't know of the site http://www.thesaurus.com
 
I hate when people use l33t sp34k.

When class gets canceled and I just got to the floor it's on.

Slutty whores. [and not the good kind]

Empty glasses cause it means I have to go fill mine again

When nothing is on TV and I just wanna watch a movie

Not being able to find my earrings when I'm already rushing to leave
 
Hoard is a collection of items. You hoard gold and toilet paper to prepare for the coming oil crash. A dragon sits on its hoard.

Horde is a collection of people. The Mongol Horde swept across Asia and into Europe. A horde of zombies closes in on you.

It's not the severity of "wringer" but it is more common.
 
Tedious conversations with hairdressers (If I had more money I would pay double for them to do their job in silence).

When the wire from the hair clippers brushes my skin whilst my hair is being cut.

News reporters who put on over exaggerated British accents - No one cares if you're African, Asian, Chinese, Caribbean etc. Talk in your natural god damn accent, we can still understand you.

People who do something just because their parents did/do (i.e vote for a particular political party, read a certain newspaper)

Celebrities who throw themselves as well as their families into the spotlight, invite camera crews into their homes, allow their daily life to be viewed and then get upset when someone takes the piss out of their disabled son. If they're a considered to be in a 'vulnerable' or 'at risk' group, then don't shove a camera in their face.

People who are reluctant to have a laugh about things such as mental health, abortion, sexuality, gender, race, disabilities and dead babies. You cannot live in a democracy and expect to be pleased all the fucking time. Also, humour does amazing things for getting people to talk about taboo subjects. Don't take a joke seriously and don't view it as always being derogatory.
 
People who talk on the phone while going through the checkout lane at a store. How rude, seriously. Get off the goddamn phone for the two minutes you are in line and respond to the cashier as he/she speaks to you about your order.
