The Weirdest Pet Peeve You Have?

Oh Hubbard, I have a LOT.

Probably the most annoying one that crawls under my skin is when a person lies and someone uses fifteen different synonyms for lying to describe their behavior.

Example:

"Bill has lied. He has fabricated his resume. He hid the facts from me. He slipped the truth in his own arse..." and so on.

I dunno. Does this unnerve anyone else too?

I've seen your Thesaurus, it's Abridged.

CarAmel. It's carAmel.

When people say "bless you" before I'm finished sneezing; it stops my sneeze but leaves me with an unpleasant tickeling in my nose for at least 20 minutes afterwards. *grumblegrumble*

Don't you mean you were an English major THEN an English minor?

Sorry, English/Drama major over here

Recently I have developed a new pet peeve. I can not stand people who feel the need to inflict the booming bass from their car stereo system upon others. I had to put up with one such person yesterday for about 20 minutes. Things in my car were shaking because of the bass. I assumed that he was right behind me, but upon closer inspection he was about five cars behind me. Five cars behind me and it was causing that much of a distraction. I don't know how the cars nearer to him where handling the noise. It is one thing to have your music on loud, but that is ridiculous!

Calvin, I hate that too, I dont mind if they move for people to get on and off, but just this morning had a large girl playing a game on her phone who refused to move for anyone.

The clueless backpack wearers who unknowingly hit everyone in their radius. When I have a backpack, I take it off and hold it on the subway...why doesnt everyone know to do that?

Another one is the leg crossers. I understand that women feel less threatened this way, but it is the ones who have their legs and feet way out into the aisle...and kick everyone passing. I make it a point to walk by and hit them, especially when they are sleeping.

I will likely be killed for giving a dirty look on the subway to the wrong person. If I dont post in awhile, check the local news for subway shootings.

I'm a frequent glarer, too, doodle. But I got my come-uppance the other day. I got on the A train during rush hour, and a man was lying across 5 or 6 seats. I did my usual passive-aggressive loud sighs, dirty looks, grumbling, etc. The next stop, a medical team came and got him. I guess he was really sick. I felt quite guilty afterward.

when people say "Do you want to come with?"

Me too! That's so annoying.
