I hate it when somebody stands over me when I try do to something. D:

That's all I can think of right now.

I hate it when somebody stands over me when I try do to something. D:

That is probably my biggest one as well.

...others?

I hate it when people suggest things just after I decide to do just that. It's like I AM ALREADY DOING IT BE QUIET >=(

I hate it when people ask questions that have already been answered by a question they just asked. Example:

Mom: "Did you get cleaned up for school yet?"
Me: "Yeah."
Mom: "Did you brush your teeth?"
Me: "...I just SAID THAT!"

Also, yeah, I hate it when people look over your shoulder.

I hate when people ask personal things unwarranted. I mean, people I confide in or talk to, I welcome it, but people hwo are just idly talking to you, and suddenly ask personal questions, tend to annoy the hell out of me.

Also, I hate when people assume becuase I dislike something, I dislike it for the most common reason. To use Wes's example, the last time I talked about Guitar Hero (which I dislike), the person assumed I hate it because it's not real guitar playing. No, I don't like it because it's no fun, to me, and I think players who really get into it look a little silly. 😛 Note that I was just using Wes's Guitar Hero example, not saying Wes did that or anything.

Also, I absolutely hate it when my family calls on me for on-demand free phone tech support. Especially my mother, because she never actually gives me any specific details - Like I'm somehow supposed to just pop up and say, "Oh, your problem is [detials]! Fix it by [details!]" from "Drew, my laptop is broken, how do I fix it?"

Seriously, she gives that kind of detail for every question. "Broken how?" "It doesn't work." "Yes, that's what broken means. How doesn't it work?" "It gives me an error." "For God's sake, Mom, what KIND of error?" "I don't know, just an error! I need a new computer." Thaaat, too, is a pet peeve - don't ask me for a favour and not be specific in what you want and give me what I need to do the favour.

Oh, and one final pet peeve for now, Dad has a tendancy to share whatever jokes he hears in whatever stupid sitcom he's watching, while he's working out or working on his stocks. IT wouldn't annoy me too terribly, except that he tends to wait until the end of his show, which also tends to be the last minutes of what I'm watching - often Law and Order's spinoffs CI and SVU, and any fan of the show knows that missing hte first and the last five minutes of the show can be really annoying, because that's whne hte cases are presented and wrapped up. I've missed more shows because he had to share some stupid joke in a show I've toldhim plainly several times I don't want to hear about.

I can come up with more, but eh.

What really grinds my gears? People who show no conviction or motivation for something they've committed to. Best example I can think of would be in college. My music theory class had 30 or so people in it. There were five passing grades by the end of the course. Five A's/B's, 25 D's and F's. And my teacher took great delight in wasting class time chastizing them for not participating or doing anything, thus dragging the ones who are actually there to learn, down.

On a musical (and more lighthearted) note, FOR GOD'S SAKE IF YOU'RE GONNA SING/PLAY AN INSTRUMENT, LEARN TO MATCH PITCH AND/OR TUNE YOUR INSTRUMENT. O___@; SRSLY.

And finally, THE UPS STORE IS NOT NOT NOT UPS. WE ARE A PRIVATELY-OWNED FRANCHISE. WE ARE NOT THE COMPANY WHO LOST OR BROKE YOUR PACKAGE. oV@

Oh, I forgot a pet peeve, a relatively new one.

Games (or movies or TV shows or whatnot, I guess, but games moreso due to the type of forums and people I talk on and to) that are waaaay over-mentioned. I mean, hype is good, but after a point it gets to be so much that I find it quite the turnoff. Other things I could rant about the Wii aside, SSBB definately takes the cake at the moment - you can't stay on the internet for more than two days without hearing about the newest feature that's delaying SSBB by another week. At some point hype gets so much, it's impossible for any game, no matter how perfect, to live up to it, and because of that those games often dissapoint, not because they're bad, but because they're not as good as people want. That, and it's just plain annoying to hear about ANYTHING that frequently.

It isn't just SSBB, of course, but that's the current one.

wasps.

.. i mean, why do they even exist other then to try to sting you? x.x

I'm with you on that one, Halo 3 was the one that bothered me a lot too.

Anyway, my main peeves...

Snobbery: Basically anyone who thinks they're better than someone else just because they do something different, like they're vegetarian for example. Now, I have no problem with vegetarians, nor do I think it's a bad thing to be, but I can't stand it when people use it to boost their ego. To make it seem fairer, think applies to non-smokers and non-alcoholics who do this too, I neither smoke or drink, but I'm not gonna judge someone who does.

Another form of snobbery, those who say games aren't art because they don't make you cry...

Now usually the people who say this are book readers or film watchers mainly, so I'd like to know...what gives them the authority to judge what art is? I'd also like to ask them how often they cried at the Mona Lisa or Michaelangelo's David, and then ask if they're art.

Another one...

Use your headphones in public! Seriously, it's bad enough places like HMV just play techno/drum & base remixes at full volume when I'm browsing DVDs, but that's their place to do so, I don't want to here is blurting from the back of the bus!

That's it mostly.

When people ask questions that were either <i>just</i> answered before, or questions that should've never been asked in the first place.
Also, when someone has to point out every single little mistake that is present in something.
I think of some more later

Oh yes and this.

Currently AJ is annoying the hell outta me. Hello Deck.

Well lets see:
1. Dogs/canines in genaral
2. Charter cable
3.when someone 1ups me
4. when (im) playing a game, and winning the other person gets up and shuts it off
5. people (and yes they do!) who Take my herbs from my garden. I MEAN COME ON! JUST CUZ YOU CAN'T GROW IT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO RADE MY PLANTS? god! at least ask first!
6. people who pay me half of what they owe me for bakeing them stuff (EX: i only charge $35 for a 2 layer 10" cake, they pay me half, get the cake, and pay me half of what's left to pay(only happened twice))

I really hate it when people don't use spellcheck, when they need to.

when people pronounce "sandwich" as "samwich"

when you can hear other people's music through their headphones - x2 in quiet situations

also the sound of people's feet rubbing against carpet.

my pet peeves include stupidity, hypocrisy, irrational intolerance, art theft and forgery, and questions like this one.

hello susan! <3

1. People who tend to keep repeating things over and over and over until it's beaten to the ground. I mean, sometimes you have to say it make the point clear, but if I have to hear it every single time so frequently, I get annoyed.
2. The stereotype view that girls likes cats and boys like dogs. I HATE this stereotype because I'm female and am a strict dog lover (since I was five). I have nothing against felines, I just love mah canines and it is not a guy thing. The same rule applies to video games. People still make an issue about girl gamers?
3. I'm also annoyed when people enter my room without knocking. Company is great, but I also like my privacy.

My biggest one was drilled into me by my dad a long long time ago.

Passive-aggressive asking.

"Craig. Are you making a coffee?" isn't a question. If I answered "No, I'm playing Wii" the effect would be a sincerely upset and annoyed dad because I refused his request for me to make coffee.

The more important the question, the more roundabout way it would be asked. "Craig, it's my birthday soon" translates as "Did you buy me that Nikon D40 that I keep showing you and saying "I wish I had the money... maybe someone will get it for my birthday""

This, of course, is not limited to my dad. Friends often say "I never see you much lately..." or "I really really want to go, but I don't have any money... a shame because that one guy is going to be there and..."

It just pisses me right the hell off. I consider myself a pleasant enough guy and usually I'll say "yes" to a reasonable request and explain why not if I'm unable. But without actually asking the question I'm forced to either say "Yes" or ignore them completely and continue conversation as if I didn't pick up the hint...

and I never pick up the hint. Ever... of course, I never say "Just ask" either, as that creates more problems than it solves.

Just something which really really bugs me. ^^;

1) People who look over my shoulder while I'm writing, doing Math...that sort of thing.

2) THE PICTURE. (glares at Crimmy and Rico) >_>

People walking behind me

Oh i found a few more
People who tell me to use spell checker
people who eat over me/my shoulder/ or on my bed

1. People who sing when they cannot actually sing.

2. People who play loud music on the bus.

3. People who walk in the middle of the pavement, leaving no room for anyone to get by them.

4. People who swear excessively for no reason.

When people first ask, 'what is that in your face?' knowing full well just what it is. Then asking if they hurt. And finally, feeling it is their place to tell me to take them out.

And if anyone is wondering, I have my nose and lip pierced.

Wait telling someone you don't see them much translates to mean I want them to pay for me to come see them? Oh $%%!. Wait, I mean crap, *stoned by OTB* No wonder people hate me. D:

And I hate everyone. I don't need a pet peeve or a reason. :3

~Tobe

In the several seconds following these events, I am usually sad:

When someone can't maintain a whisper and I want them to shut up because the authorities will totally hear us talking
When someone talks about mundane details from their day
When someone asks a question repeatedly
When someone raises their voice to be convincing
When someone whines, and with that voice that is only for whining

please have a rich life now
