Technicalities that annoy you, or pet peeves in general?

I hate it when people respond to the question "how to I get six pack abs" with "you already have abs, you just need to get rid of the fat". Well that's what they obviously meant, and it annoys the hell out of me.

A pet peeve of mine is when people whistle random notes....if you're going to whistle, at least whistle a real god damn song!!

I hate when people are not funny but throw out jokes like every 10 seconds. This girl in my class is always being funny and for some reason people give off this kind of awkward laughter and I just bury my face in my hands.

i try to whistle a song, but i usually can't do the whole song, just the segment that sticks out in my mind.

umm pet peeves...

oh.

people who bite down on the metal utensil when eating. For some reason i find this really really grating.

people who use their finger instead of a utensil to mix their food. like nachos (you can even use a chip). seriously people stop being lazy and know some damn ettiquette.

people who insist on using derogatory terms about other people in their every day language. like the B word in describing women, or saying *** instead of Japanese when talking about the Japanese people. Seriously do you have any idea what you look like when you say those words casually?

putting two metal utensils and having them friction against each other. again like the biting thing, i somehow find it very very grating.

That's about all i can think of right now.

Grammar Nazi's, people who litter, people who are constantly on their phone, notably bad drivers, people who move too slowly, the phrase "I've lost faith in humanity" and those who are unnecessarily excessively loud.

don't feel bad. i cannot snap my fingers. at all.. SaudiFury

I never understood how this was impossible for some people... not enough fat on the hand for the middle finger to slap against? :P

People who, out in public, seemingly have no idea where they're going and so walk incredibly slow or decide to stop suddenly or stop and block up a pathway. Same goes for people who go to fast food or take away places and have no idea what to get.

People who don't get off the phone especially when driving, people who murder English, non-funny 'funny' people, anything scraping on glass, people dragging their hands across rough surfaces(like bricks), and people who act like they know what they're talking about, when they clearly don't...

I agree with SaudiFury's pet peeves as well.

People overusing pictures to post. Posting a picture with the a GIF or message at the bottom. Usually its just to be a smartass and it can be over the slightest things too. Sometimes its actually funny but its sooooooo overdone!

-People bagging on threads saying I hate thread X because of whatever. If you hate it why bother going in there just to say it. Guys who act all different around women, my mates try to act all big and bad just because there's a woman around. Meanwhile I'm just kicking it like her presence there is no big deal at all lol. On the real though it aint even that serious :lol:

-American Legal System. If someone breaks into my house or invades my property, I can't do anything about it because they can sue me back. Makes less sense than a solar-powered flashlight. We shouldn't cater to the damn criminals.

-Grammar Nazis. It's the damn internet, so you should expect mistakes.

-People who don't have patience on the road. I admit I'm a slow driver because I don't like driving, but FFS the speed limit is 35 and you do not need to be going 70.

-People who play music on their cell phone speaker out loud.

-People who embrace the ghetto culture.

Dude, that pisses me off. And when they give you a diet soda instead of a regular.

Oh, and when anyone says the cliche line of "What is the world coming to?" after reading a sensationalist story from the media.

Youtube comments.

They're always about Justin Bieber or some retarded spam "you say lady gaga I say Slipknot 90% of teens listen to bla bla bla"

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Slackers, women drivers, chavs, slow people, people who talk with food in their mouth, people who eat and talk in the cinema, people.

People who enter into a discussion and complain that there are bigger problems in the world.

People who blame the media for everything.

People who want to argue for the sake of arguing.

People who have average intelligence.

What about people with below average intelligence? 8)

People who do not use proper grammar and spelling. Others can understand your message better if you write and spell properly.

Parents who put their kids in the basket portion of a shopping cart, especially at grocery stores and Super Wal-Marts where groceries are sold. I don't want what ever is on the bottom of your kids shoes transferred to the items I am purchasing. Can I walk on your kitchen counters or dining room table?

People on the phone while driving along with texting.

People reading while driving, put the newspaper and the books down and pay attention to what is in front of you.

I have NEVER seen someone read and drive. That's one of the dumbest things you can do while driving.....

For me it's:

-Odd numbers

-Asian Women wearing crosses (I have no idea why but it bugs me to no end, like odd numbers. No offence to Christians)

-Grammer Nazi's

-People who chew loud (wosre when it's an odd number of chews)

- Odd number sided streets

I know I'm weird

Come to the Atlanta area and drive the interstates at rush hour. I have seen a woman driving a green minivan reading a paperback book and a businessman reading his paper (can't remember what kind of car it was though). It really does happen here.

Que? What is a sided street? People might hate grammar nazis, but when fake words (payed) are used, it really does detract from what one is saying as much as a misspelling does. Using the wrong words changes the point you are trying to make (there, they're, their for example).

And it even happens in Canada.

Someone mentioning Justin Bieber. someone spamming youtube asking people to look at their channel, someone saying "I say Slipknot, you say Katy Perry. 90% of all teens listen to pop." Someone saying that Youtube and Vevo is evil and is trying to start a riot saying that they want the old youtube back.

Someone begging for thumbs up. People hating on people who ask for thumbs up, but they do it themself's. Someone saying "Unfriendable, please". WTF?

People who use a downright abusive number of ellipses in their posts. If you're not willing to type out a semi-literate post, maybe it wasn't worth posting in the first place?

(in before a rash of ellipses-filled reponses)

Houses are numbered in the US much the same way, even on one side, odd on the other. Side streets is typically where residential areas are usually built. Your statement would have made more sense if you had said the odd number side of the street.
