I'm interested in knowing people's biggest pet peeve and why it bothers you so much. I used to work full time in an office setting and actually wrote down a list of pet peeves. I still have the list somewhere. One of the things that bothered me most is when people said "I'll shoot you an email." What like you can go email hunting, shoot it and bring it home for dinner??? Try saying "I'll send you an email." It's shorter and makes more sense. So what are your pet peeves?

Here are some of my biggest pet peeves - people that tailgate (drive too close behind you); people that do not have their money or cash ready at the grocery store and wait until they total is rang up and then they have to pull out their wallets or dig through their purses to find the money; people that still write checks (every bank has a check card now); people that do not signal when they are about to turn; people that back into their parking spots (it can take them about 5 minutes sometimes to get it just right).
I have more but these are the main ones. Notice that most of them are driving related.

I have many pet peeves but my biggest pet peeve are people who are vulgar and loud.For example when I am in the bus and someone is playing their music player loud enough for everyone else to hear without being concerned that not everyone might llike thier music.I feel like I want to strangle the person who is doing this

Mine is when people chew with their mouths open. Some people dont even notice they are doing it but my grandmother is the absolute worst. I cant stand to be around when she eats unless there is a background noise that I can concentrate on so I dont hear it and I just dont take my eyes off of my own plate. She never notices even though I have mentioned it a few times. I dont want to hear you chew your food and I definitely dont want to see it! Yuck!

UGH...my main pet peeve at this point in time, is the use of the word "awesome" to describe absolutely every freaking thing in the world!!! Sorry...but it just annoys me so much...I wish people would come up with a new word because this one has been around for WAY too long and it's SO overused! I have NEVER used the word and have no intentions on using the word because it's ridiculous and annoying and I refuse to follow the pack.

My greatest pet peeve is when people post a comment or email that has "te he he "in it.I hate lol too.I hate when people cough or sneeze with out covering their mouth ,that really grosses me out.I hate when people are all rude in the store and nearly hit me with their shopping cart,they act like you're invisible and keep going.I guess I have alot of pet peeves.There's alot of internet grammar that annoys me too.
