For me it has to be when people talk while having food in there mouth, it really does my head in and well its not nice seeing someones food or mashed up in there open mouth :X Also negative people, but the ones that are OTT negative, I have a mate that is like it, he is only putting a downer on things and turning the moods from happy to sad. His that bad i actually don't see him as much as i did, as well when i go out i want to have a good time and don't want the mood to be put down.

Me to. Your totally right about this one. They're way to many people that do this. Am I a jerk? I dislike it when people eat loudly, as well as chew with their mouth open. Particularly eating loudly. Sure, some noises are necessary, but let's not have a carnival in your mouth. I also despise it when people are ungrateful--don't thank when thanks are needed or never express their gratitude when someone's doing them an immense favour. ...plus...pens that don't properly disperse ink always piss me off. :ph34r:

If they want to drive that slow they should go though the city.

Heh, I hate it when people insult my intelligence. It drives me up the wall at work when people assume that just because I'm an assistant, there isn't much going on between the ears. Drivers in fast cars who think they rule the road because their car goes faster.

Deleted User	One of my biggest pet peeves is how willfully ignorant people vote for known war criminals and international terrorists and blindly and fanatically support illegal occupation and settlement and ethnic cleansing of other countries by other war criminals and international terrorists and call anyone who resists them unpatriotic or racist or evil or whatever and refuse to accept that they're the unpatriotic, racist, and evil ones and they're the problem and not the solution. I also have the same issue with older drivers that Dale does, especially considering that younger drivers are blamed for things like the weaving in and out of traffic when that's just a symptom and the cause of that weaving is actually the dangerously inattentive or simply inept (mostly) older drivers, many of which probably shouldn't be driving at all, much less on the freeway, and much less in the left lane.. or the right lane if there's a middle lane, because they cause major risks to people trying to merge. Oh, and right now the big one is probably incompetent, uncommunicative apartment management companies who can't seem to do anything right and don't seem to give a $##* about it.

Deleted User	Das Jul 21 2009, 08:34 PM Women: 1 - 19 Men: 1 - 25 As a general rule. Wow, really? I'd probably go with, generally speaking but with exceptions - women 1-3, 9-20 - because little girls are adorable, except for the inhumanly high pitched screams, and probably men 1-3, 7-70. You reminded me of another pet peeve though, which is those girls 14-17 you see at the mall or concerts or wherever that look like they're 19-25, because you don't want to look at them or think certain thoughts, but if they really are 19-25 and you don't, then you're out a perfectly legitimate opportunity to gawk and drool and daydream, or maybe more. Girls should have to wear a large and clearly visible button or something stating their age, or perhaps have an RFID tag that could be read from 90 feet or so.

Same with me! Also, other word choice issues. It gets worse when you see supposedly 'smart' people who just graduated from University being unable to grasp the simple concept of talking in third person for the facebook status, and using the worst grammar and spelling known to man. I mean you have a freaking keyboard, what is with the 'txt spk'? I also hate seeing the word 'nite' all the time. I actually find it easier to wrote properly words... and apparently I'm dumb for not having a degree
