Hahahahha. I remember one time being woken up early in the morning and I didn't open my eyes as I said, "This had better be fucking important"

She was holding a pregnancy test in her hand..... ooops.
 
^ heartily laughed out loud at both of those. I hate that as well and can't really remember any pleasant surprises resulting from any of my summonings.
 
Being subjected to questionable music blaring from someone's cheap plastic encased headphones. Or worse...from their mobile phone speaker :| Bah!

Oh and people who collect at the bottom of staircases and escalators. Move dammit!
 
I find stupid people irritating when they're arrogant about their intelligence. There was this incredibly irritating woman at the bus stop today who kept talking to me about how gifted she was when she was a complete moron. There was a jumbo jet coming towards us in the distance. When this happens, the condensation trails of the plane looks as if it's vertical in the sky. Of course, because she was a complete idiot, she concluded that the plane must have been flying vertically (i.e. straight up vertically into the sky!). I mean, how thick do you have to be to not be able to work out what was happening?
 
You go into a shop, you buy several items & you may even have used a basket.

"Do you want as bag for this?" she asks.

Hmmm...let me think. The loaf of bread can be rammed into my back pocket, the large bottle of milk can fit in the front of my jeans, the magazine will be slid into the front of my t-shirt & it's okay, I'll manage to carry the pack of smokes in my hand.

Of course I want a bag you fucking imbecile! :X
 
^ she may be asking in case you already have a shopping bag with you. with all the green pressure on us nowadays, many people use reusable shopping bags now.

People who get mad for trying to use you.

They act all nice and dumb and think that you dont know what theyre trying to do when you really do and get mad when you dont comply.
 
I know, right? (about torture, not commenting on the US/Uk situation)

Believe Me, It’s Torture
What more can be added to the debate over U.S. interrogation methods, and whether waterboarding is torture? Try firsthand experience. The author undergoes the controversial drowning technique, at the hands of men who once trained American soldiers to resist—not inflict—it.

Seeing middle aged dudes wearing Hollister t-shirts. Wtf? Why are you shopping at the same store you probably take your 15 year old daughter to shop? A button up I can understand a bit more, but a big logo t-shirt, come on.

Also parents who are completely oblivious to what their kids are doing. I sat next to a young child on a plane last weekend who kept kicking me the whole time. I'm really bad with kids so I didn't know what to do, I tried pulling my leg away so she couldn't reach me but it didn't work. Her dad sitting next to her did nothing at all.. Luckily was only an hour flight but damn.
 
When I can't remember the incredibly funny and witty pet peeves I have when I come to post about them here.

people who have full blown conversations with animals. i understand everyone talks to their dog, but it gets out of control some times. my mother is notorious for this, and it drives me up a fucking wall.

"did you eat your dinner? was it good? what are you gonna do next? you wanna play with the toy? huh? do you? where is it? can you get it? i don't know where it is! can you show me? can you show me? huh? what's wrong? do you gotta go to the bathroom? how was your day?"

if anything i am under exaggerating. i can hear her down stairs talking to the dog. "do you want to help me do laundry?"

Ahaha yes! Being summoned by the boss woman at home irritates the life out of me. 99% of the time it normally turns out to be total bullshit as well, but I always fall for it. The few times I have erupted about being shouted on, I always end up looking like a dick because that's when a gift is involved or one of the kids has poleaxed by their sibling. :\

"WHAT THE FUCK NOW????.....oooh an xbox game.......(sheepishly)....thanks"

"You're a dick"

"I'm sorry......."

=D

Holy shit. My roommate probably thinks I am nuts because I was just laughing out loud like a total nutcase. Pet Peeves is back! Excellent work all.

While we're at it, how about the checkout clerk who asks if Iwant a bag for the snickers bar I just bought....
 
Oh, and continuing my series of ten driving-related pet peeves that was inconveniently interrupted by a week-long stay in a mental home:

7) People who stop at yield signs.

It says YIELD, not STOP. Learn how to fucking read street signs. :X
 
Oh my fucking god if my computer tells me one more time to install adobe flash version 20 I am going to go completely batshit insane!!!!!!!!!! I have installed it ten fucking times every time it asks me to and I still cannot view YouTube videos! WTF!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, someone help !!!!

lol, yeah that's the type I'm talking about. I know what alasdair says about the environmental side of dishing out bags, sometimes it's so damned obvious that I would need one & like you said, so bloody obvious when you don't! :|

I'm quite a jovial type of person, who in turn is very pleasant to anyone who works in a shop & fully believe it's much easier to be nice than nasty, but I do have a serious issue with disinterested, sixteen year old shop girls. You try to be nice & pleasant, but the ignorant bitch even has the sack to check her mobile when you are being served or talking to her mate on the next checkout when you are speaking. It's not one of those moments you think serious enough to involve management. It's more of a "did that just fucking happen?" moment. 8o
