In no particular order:
- Excessively loud people
- Bad spelling/punctuation/grammar
- People who don't get irony
- Political correctness
- People
- Overly familiar strangers
- People who use all the bog roll and don't replace it
- Arse-lickers
- People who quote a 35 line post and respond with "
" or the like. Such creativity.
- Prudishness
- Nosiness
- Republicans
- Self righteousness
- The fact that somebody will be pissed off by this post and will get all uppity and point out how horrible I am et cetera. It'll happen - mark my words.
That's a non-exhaustive list, actually. I'm a bastard and I like it

Re: Pet Peeves?
- People that brag on the internet and make like they're spies or geniuses or some such shit.
- People who beg and whine and want special exceptions made for them when everybody else just has to suck it up and pay.
- People who bother the living shit out of me and then act as if they've done me a huge favor by gracing me with their presence. Just stay home next time. Really.
- People who make a big ****ing deal over absolutely nothing just because they can. I WILL STAB YOU.
- People.

- Hypochondriacs. Seriously, I hope you catch something really horrible, maybe then you'll finally be happy.
- People that won't shut up about how busy they are while they do nothing all day and leave their work mess for others to clean up. There is a special place in hell for you.

Re: Pet Peeves?
You are at least spared the classic "I'm so busy and I don't know how I will get it done today" style facebook posts. If someone is that busy, why spend half the morning telling us about it

BTW, Don't bother trying to stab me, I have a 24 hour personal FBI bodyguard.
Have a nice day, and draw your blind, there's a 48" infrared scope that's looking in your window.

Re: Pet Peeves?
If I were to post a list of the things that pissed me off about other drivers, we'd be here all week 
The misuse of indicators is a big one though, not just those who don't use them, but the ones who leave them on on a road with a series of off-streets, and you don't know which bloody one (if any) they are going to turn down!
Gahhh! I look at these people and wonder - out of 1,000,000 sperm they were the fastest
