So, what makes you tick?
My peeves are slow walkers, bad drivers, people who are ALWAYS late, and lazy people.

Whoops... I'm always late, and I'm lazy as heck. Mainly because I don't sleep enough. Purr? Kitty go sleep nao? >>;;
Anyway, my pet peeves are, personally: + Slow walkers. SPEED THE HECK UP OR MOVE ASIDE, TORTOISE. DDDDD< + People who can't keep a secret. This is why I don't tell mine. xDD + Turning on the lights without a warning... Like, ow. My eyes?!!?
And one that's not on the list: + Bad grammar. You're & your do NOT equal the same thing, neither do there, their and they're. You can't use them at random! Bad, bad person! Use the correct one!!

None of those really bother me. Maybe I'm less irritable than I thought I was. :o
Although a few things that do bother me:
- REDICULOUS? IT'S NOT SPELLED THAT WAY. It's ridiculous. >:P Mister. - People who get new pets/new dogs, without learning squat about them beforehand (or how to even properly take care of them). - People who put goldfish with tropical fish. - People who put a goldfish in anything less than a 10-15 gallon.
I can't think of more at the moment, but those are my main ones. x3

Some others:
- People who don't treat those they meet online like real people. - Leaving the toilet seat up. GAH! - It's vs. Its, You're vs. Your, Their vs. There vs. They're - Capitalization Spazzes (people who tYpe liEk THIS, or throw In random Capitalizations or Capitalize Every Single Word)
... why yes I'm a grammar nazi, thank you for asking!

I'm guilty of being a grammar nazi too, though I try to curb it most of the time. Key word there: Most. Anywho..Gum chompers are on my list. People who chew right behind me. Simply because my ears are very sensitive and it annoys the living ... out of me. And a side one is bad drivers. Including those who don't signal and don't stop when they're on a side street, even though there's a stop sign. My problem with the drivers is because it makes it dangerous for the rest of us, including pedestrians. I've nearly been hit more times than I'd like to count. And that's walking across the street when I have the right of way, cause I don't drive.

Oh my god guys, lol. I have SO many. I bet a few of you agree with me ahaha.
-People who chew with their mouths open. I don't want to see your food, thanks, or hear it mushing around in your mouth. -People who spit when they talk. -Males who buddy up to me, find out I have a boyfriend/I tell them I'm not single, and they lose interest in 'friendship' straight away. -People who drive awfully...I voted for that one. If you're going to pull out on me at a junction, at least have the decency to NOT go at 23mph along the road when I was clearly going 50. -Pet owners who discard one pet after another, treating them as objects and accessories. If you have a pet, you have it for LIFE. Not just until it grows up and stops being 'cute.' -Online bullies. Feel free to debate things with me, but don't go power-tripping because you will never make me care that you don't like me. lmao. -Men who leave the toilet seat up. Arrg. It's so annoying! -When I'm working at WHSmith and have to go back & forth to our lottery terminal, people try to give me their money WITH the lottery slip. It's like, wtf? You don't put the money IN the machine. Jeez. -Untrained dogs. T_T -People who have runny noses and sniff constantly, but don't blow their nose. ITS GROSS. I don't want to hear your snot snorted up into your sinuses over and over, tysm. -People that expect things, instead of asking for them, and people who assume you'll do something for them automatically without asking. -People who talk loudly on their mobile phones in quiet places. RUDENESS. -People who assume, that because I work in retail, I must be so thick I can't possibly do anything else with my life. Then when they hear I'm at University, their attitude changes. Wtf.

That's one of mine too, especially when they do that in a doctor's office or the computer lab at school..Where there are tissues readily available.

I tend to be annoyed with people who are always late, but none of the things listed really are my pet peeves.
These are my main ones:
- Bad spelling/grammar/punctuation (especially by people who "don't care"). - People who leave the door of the fridge open longer than necessary. Drives me nuts. - People who use more dish liquid than necessary. Drives me equally nuts. - People who try to push their beliefs on me, religious or otherwise.

besides many of the ones listed already that i agree with, I also hate it when people proclaim how much they just loveeeee a band, and when you ask them what songs they only know one. Especially when its like, the most popular song or something haha.
an example of this would be like, Fireflies by Owl City.

People who get a B or like a C+ and are all "OMG MY LIFE IS OVER MY PARENTS ARE GOING TO BEAT ME."
And/or start to cry. I'm like o___O and at the same time irritable, because a B for me = :D
I understand if you worked really hard for the grade and deserved a higher letter, but no need to lose your mind.

^ Amen.
I have a friend who used to get freaked out if she got an A- or lower. >.< Personally, I'm quite happy if I get a B or a C, it means I passed. A's are wonderful too, of course.

Hehe, I'm one of those people who freak out about my grades :B
I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier, but oh my god when people leave their shopping carts in the middle of the parking lot!!! It's not that far! Walk it back! GAAAH! Holy cow I just want to ram into their cars with the forgotten cart.
