Another one of mine is when there are unlimited adoptions and someone has to take loooooaaaads. Like 100+ petz. What are you going to do with all of those? I have like, 200 petz maximum, and they're taking 100+ from ONE adoption?! Or like Miske said, 5 out of 8, something like that.
Also, people who post in EVERY adoption thread, and ALWAYS take the limit. And EVERY breeding service, and again, ALWAYS take the limit. :/

Another pet peeve.. When there is a breeding service board, and you're offered pets and people ask for the pets someone else offered YOU before you've even picked. It's annoying to me. :/ When people hex you a hex or breed a trade, but never send it.

^ Same here! I even saw it happen recently and I swear steam came out of my ears. I've always thought it incredibly rude. :/

& Another one.
When you breed wanted petz for someone, and then someone else skips into the thread before or after the other person has chosen and are either like "oh if they don't want --" or "since they didn't want --"... and you just think to yourself; sorry, did I offer these to you? No, didn't think so. :/

^ I've gotta disagree. I always felt, especially since it's out of sheer niceness that you're breeding anything for anyone in the first place (and not that they earned it in some way or traded something for it), that if something isn't taken/is a leftover, what's the harm in someone asking for it?
It's not like "NO. I BRED THEM FOR THIS SPECIFIC PERSON AND NO ONE ELSE MAY HAVE ANY OF THEM EVER." Even if the person doesn't want them? Unless you're just really good friends with the first person or something. In which case you could've just done it over PM. :P
I just don't see anything wrong with that what-so-ever.
I remember once I PMed someone for this really, really nice dali that they bred by request but the person didn't want it, and I messaged them seeing if the dog was still available, saying that I was interested in it. They told me to wait for when they put it up as a freebie. :/ And of course I never got the dog. I'm just thinking ... you know, here I am. I'd really like this dog. Why not give it to me? I'd really like it. Why put it up for adoption to some random person if I'm right here asking for it?
Maybe they just didn't like me or something. T____T

^ I don't mind if they PM me afterwards - I give them an honest answer. If I kept it, I tell them, if I don't want it, I give it them. I just don't enjoy it when they butt in on the thread and just EXPECT to get. Half the time they don't even say please and/or thank you. They just go "oh, since they didn't want --- can I have it? [insert email]" and that really ticks me off!
The problem with it I have, people leave their email along with the comment and things. It's obvious they expect me to just go "oh, okay. Sure, have it. I bred it specifically for the person because they asked for it, but whatever."
It clutters up the person's thread, and it's even worse when they're greedy... and take like, every single pet the person didn't want.
If they're polite about it through PM, and I'm not keeping the pet, I just hand it straight over. Good manners get you very far with me, y'see. xDD

^ Oh, I see what you mean. I do get irritable when people just kind of demand it, like you have no say in the matter.
That's why sometimes I'm reluctant to give my email for anything unless I know 100% that they're perfectly willing and ready to give something to me. I don't want to just spring it on them and except something.

^ Yeah, it doesn't bother me if they comment to compliment the pet, and then PM me about it, or just PM me privately. I don't like it when they clutter someone else's thread with their email, and their lack of please & thank yous.
It seems a LOT more polite if you do what you've said you do - message someone, and if they say yes, provide your email afterwards. That makes me feel the happiest about giving the pet to someone. If someone does that, and they're trustworthy, then sometimes I even give up the pet to them despite wanting it for myself!

~ Compulsive liars. ~ People who tyP3 L!k3 d!z. ~ Overly religious people who shove their beliefs down your throat and bring God into every bloody conversation. I don't mind you being religious, I mind you not respecting my choice not to follow it! ~ HOMOPHOBES. ~ People who lie to me about what they do behind closed doors because I "have strong morals and will bash them for it"...no. Grow a pair, please. I may have morals, but I won't tell you what to do with your life. ~ People who fling around the word love as though it means nothing. ~ People who think nothing of their virginity. Etc...

Wow, I don't think I have enough space in this little box to tell you what gets on my nerves... I could narrow it down by about 5 of my biggest pet peeves. Besides the ones I chose in the poll.. - People who buy/adopt a pet without doing their necessary research first because its THEE most important thing to do. I can't stand these people who don't bother and then have the audacity to complain about their "destructive puppy", or they just can't pay for their cat to be neutered so it becomes pregnant... it makes me want to slap these people back into reality and I'm not a violent person.
- The law... in the UK at least. Its so messed up, its unbelievable. A mother is legally allowed to sit in her living room with her child and smoke cigarette after cigarette, ultimately poisoning her child, and yet her child will have to wait however many years it may be until they would be legally allowed to start smoking themselves. And that's the same government setting these laws that allows a pregnant 13 year old girl to keep her unborn baby if she chooses, without any punishment, even though its against the law to "make love" to someone whilst you're under the age of 16.
- Mothers who let their under 5 year old kids wander around in shops or in the street and just get in the way or end up falling over something. I don't remember a time where my mum didn't have my brother in reins when he was a toddler. When he started school he'd be in his pushchair until he was about 5. I think its ridiculous, because the mothers then look at you with such disgust if you accidentally walk into their wandering 3 year old. Reins are there for a reason...
- A little pet peeve this time... when you get someone from double glazing or some rubbish like that, come to your door, knock on it, make you stop what you're doing to answer them, to be spoken to as though I don't already have windows and doors, then they write down their name and number and hand you A PIECE OF PAPER! We have a letter box on the door and also a box on the wall next to our door, they don't need to disturb us when they could simply post the piece of paper through our letter box... I feel like saying "hold on a second *walks to the kitchen, opens cupboard, gets Yellow Pages out.. walks back to them and searches for them in Yellow Pages* ah yes, I see you're right here too.. I ignored you then as well" then smile sweetly and slam the door in their face
- When dog owners leave their dog mess.. I just remembered that one. That really irritates me. How much is a bag of cheap sandwich bags from the supermarket?? Its just pennies! You can keep the roll in your coat pocket and have them with you all the time! Or even have them where you keep your dogs lead.
- My dads obnoxious whistling, when he crashes about in the kitchen at night and in the morning when I'm way too tired for the noise, and when he crashes about in the shower and my bedroom is next door to the bathroom...
- Lastly, (coz I've gone on a bit already ) the fact that football players and celebrities get more money than people with actual jobs. Like my mums old job, she'd been a teacher for 15 years, working with kids of all ages, she's had tables and chairs thrown at her, been bitten, kicked, punched, spat on and even had a coping saw held to her neck by a 14 year old boy last year, including all the typical name calling, that's a frigging horrible job to have, but she stuck at it because she loved to teach, its one of the most important jobs in the entire world, and yet, besides paying her bills and paying for my pets (which I'm hugely grateful for, obviously), she has barely enough money for anything else. She gets necessities and luxuries, but has to weigh it out each month. And yet someone like, David Beckham, all he does is kick a ball into a net, ok fair enough these people have skill, but its not important enough for them to get bucket loads of money that my mum would never see in her lifetime working as a teacher. It seriously sickens me...
*breaths* Wow, I've been going to see a psychiatrist for the past few weeks but that rant was more rewarding ;D lol!
