I hate handbags and refuse to buy one let alone use it. Maybe I should have posted this in Random Comment.

CD/DVD's not being put back in the right case...drives me batty.
People who ring you up, wait for the answering machine to go off, dawdle around and then not leave a message.
Knobjockies who get all arsey with you when you tell them they've got the wrong number.
People who don't return their shopping trolley, double annoying when there's a return jobby a couple of spots away.
The huge amount of food that's being wasted...local Target chucked everything, fresh and frozen into a skip when they lost power for 3 hours.
Weird things to recycle...baby food formula tubes, they're metal at each end, foil on the inside, yet cardboard tubes, so do they do in the metal or the cardboard recycle bins?

Re: Pet Peeves?
Ah, you've reminded me of another pet peeve - my wife's handbag. Specifically when I'm asked to find something in, what can only be described as a bottomless pit filled with useless crap, old receipts and invariably not the thing I was commissioned to find. That's usually sitting on the kitchen table ...
How many others are afflicted?
Is it contagious?
Will 'it' drop off???

Bread that has a twisty tie rather than the plastic clip thingy...especially the weedy ties...
The inability to ever get the last of the soap, or whatever out of those dispensers....meh.
