Or, on the other hand (and I know this one has been mentioned somewhere before), when the person in the front of the queue at the lights doesn't stop close enough to the white line so it doesn't actually set off the sensor for the lights to change.....so then you're waiting and waiting and waiting for like 5 minutes for the light to turn green. Come on!! Are people really that stupid?? :D

On the flip side of that, not every intersection has sensors. This is the case at all busy lights; they're timed so that everyone gets an equal amount. And yet, there's always someone at the front of the line (queue? ;)) who slowly creeps up thinking they are somehow going to make the light change faster. I can only imagine the smug satisfaction on their faces once the light turns green.

But yeah, that's not as annoying as the ones who don't move up when there actually are sensors. :)
 
"Bye" is pronounced exactly like one might think it is - "bye." Not "mmmmmmmbye." I don't get why people do this, but it's bleeping annoying.

Over the phone:

RL: "Thanks for helping me clear that up."
Service Rep: "Let us know if there is anything else we can do."
RL: "Thanks. Bye."
Service Rep: "mmmmmmmmmmmmmmbye."

Seriously, what's with the m's?
 
Unmarked cop cars!

One of those sneaky pigs pulled me over yesterday, as I overtook him on the motorway at 140kph. :\
 
Facial hair.

Sick of shaving every second day because it grows back so quick :\
 
^fuck yes I feel ya......

People who blame the damage caused by drugs on the irresponsibility of the user and claim that the drug itself does no damage... :|

on the other hand, people who blame the damage caused by irresponsibility of the user on the drugs and claim the user had no part piss me off more

tho yours pisses me off too. it's a two way street people, you can't blame everything on one side or the other
 
They're both equally irritating. But recently I've had more contact with the "Damage from irresponsibility" people...which is what earned the post
 
Lately my pet peeve is this:

Person asks for advice, I take the time to give them quality advice, they completely ignore it as if we never had the conversation and they continue to complain about their "fucked up life". Why people do this is beyond me. Perhaps it's not the advice they want to hear or, god forbid, they have to get up off their ass and make something happen themselves.

the people i live with are terrible at turning the heat down at night. this means that right now it feels like it is about 80 degrees in the house.

the worst part is that the thermostat is programmable, but since they override the setting all the time it doesn't stick to the program.
 
some shit-for-brains at my work keeps spitting his dip out in one of the urinals. piss and used dip meld together into one fucking disgusting stench. i am quite sure whoever does this does it on purpose. i would like to shit in the air ducts in his car.
 
People who insist on making you dance at a party when you don't want to. Even after saying no ten times they still carry on with their insistent bickering.
 
People who stand too close behind you in a queue, this really annoys me, I feel violent when people dont respect your personal space...a few days ago some old guy was right behind me, as the queue moved forward he kept on bumping up against me.:X
Although I kept turning around and throwing him obvious evils, the idiot didnt flinch 8) ...I didnt want to make a scene as there was like one other woman in the queue and I didnt want t o appear Hysterically angry(which I was feeling at this point)he kept moving too fucking close for comfort every time the queue moved, luckily I carry a heavy handbag the size of The Starship Enterprise and swung it around my shoulder and whacked him with it. He stood back.
