Pet Peeves

image via yankeegalscafe

What are pet peeves? As per Wikipedia, a pet peeve (or pet hate) is a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to him or her, to a greater degree than others may find it. I have quite a lot but I feel not sharing everything here. Some of those are:

1. People who drive using their cell phones.
2. People who talk during Movies
3. Saying "I don't know how to do this/that/it" when you actually haven't tried yet.
4. Anybody showing up more than an hour late.
5. Not putting things back to where you got or found them. Just recently the husband felt dizzy and said that he was palpitating. I told him to get his BP checked. You see, the husband is hypertensive so I got this kit for him. I got a bit upset when he said that the sphygmomanometer or manual kit we bought was nowhere to be found in any of the medicine cabinets here at home.
6. Wet door handles.
7. Oily/greasy utensils.
8. Changing the TV channel without asking when anyone is clearly watching.
9. Being put on the speakerphone without warning.
10. People with bad table manners.
11. Someone standing over my shoulder reading the computer screen.
12. People who leave their children in their cars while they run into the store.
13. Mumbling, then annoyedly saying "Forget it!" when people don't hear you.
14. People who don't look at you when they are talking, or you are talking to them.
15. People who borrow stuff and never give it back.

My list could go on and on and on.... I'm starting to get furious just by the thought of it. Care to share yours?
