I have a few pet peeves but the one I have at work is this...where i work (in a bakery) there is always work to be done and I hate it when someone finishes a job and asks me "What should I do now??" GRRRRRRR! I feel like saying...Look around...U might find something that needs to be cleaned!
Debi...that thread title one is becoming one of mine.Those darn drivers who want to make a left turn and start breaking when there's an actual turning lane they can get into. Then they sloooooooowly start to get over into the turning lane but drive with half their car in the turning lane and the other half still in your lane. *^&! Just get over already!!
People who flick lit cigarettes out their window.
That man who took his shopping cart FULL of groceries into the 10 items or less lane!
And cashiers who still check them out!
Those stupid styrofoam containers for takeout food. If you have anything that has liquid on it or in it, it ends up in the bag. Grrrrrr.
Oh, I just love this thread more and more every day! I agree with so many of these pet peeves! Ironbaker, I agree with every single one you've listed, and you have me ROFL!!!!!
Manditory all day pre-K and now they are starting to talk about a 3 year old program too, why don't you just take my kids at the hopsital? They have their whole lives to go to school then to work let them be children. (Yes my baby is about to go to school 
)
Oh yeah, the huge rush by news stations to (1) be the first on the scene and (2) rehash the same two bits of information (at 4:30, 6, 8 and 10) that usually turn out to be incorrect
I had this pet peeve for years before I descovered paste food coloring...Those horrendous little bottles of liquid food coloring designed to spill, and get all over your hands. The top is almost impossible to take off since it's shaped in the form of a pointy cone. When you can grip it, it's not twist off. Oh no, that would be too easy. You have to pop it off, which leads to spills. The stuff is dried out at the top after the first use so you have to put too much pressure on it, ipso facto, you squirt more drops than you wanted into the recipe. Those little pip-squeek bottles fall down in their box too, and half the time the color's gone...dried on the box.
I think I'd put those liquid food coloring bottle's picture next to the definition of hate.

My number 1 peeve is sugar,salt, or sand on the floor. I cant stand it. My older children have taught my youngest to just push it under the cuboard ledge, so by the time I notce it I dont know who the culpret is.lol I also hate cuboard and closet doors left open I feel like putting signs on all my doors, PLEASE CLOSE!! Im sure it wouldnt help at all, it would just be another eye sore for me to have to look at. I also have to agree with mbelgard, about the whole proper church, proper children thing. Many of my adult friends who preach religion are the biggest hipocrites I know. My beleif is, we all have the right to belive in our own way and most importantly is to live your life the best you can everyday
- Televisions with the volume blared
- People who walk into elevators and just stop like a dope (as if no one else wants to get in)
- anyone standing 1/2 an inch away from me in a line (does this make the line go faster?)
- people who walk their dogs using retractable leashes and take up the entire sidewalk
Wow! I sound like a grouch 
...
- anyone standing 1/2 an inch away from me in a line (does this make the line go faster?)
Similar but different: People who stop their car a good 1/2 or full car length from the next car at a stop light. What are you saving it for? 
It makes me nuts when people get to the end of a merge lane and stop instead of merging!
It makes me nuts when people get to the end of a merge lane and stop instead of merging!
Or the ones that are not merging lanes .... the "entrance lane" actually becomes a regular lane. There is a yellow diamond shaped sign showing it's a continuous lane .... and the morons STOP to wait for traffic in the OTHER LANE to just drive on by! 
Were you NOT required to pass the part of the driving test where you had to know what the freakin' sign meant???????
Oh! Oh! Oh! I remembered this one while watching a TV show that was having a birthday party scene. I'm not sure if my peeve is the kid or the parents of .....
The kid who thinks they HAVE to be next to the person-of-honor so they can (a) be in all the pictures (b) "help" open ALL the gifts.
Whether it's birthday, wedding shower or baby shower, I just want to yank the little "world revolving around me and I MUST be the center of attention" kid and jerk them to the back of the room where they belong! It's NOT your birthday, and hey five year old, the bride-to-be does not NEED your help to open every gift! Why your mama thinks it is "Oh! So CUTE!" for you to be up there "helping" is beyond me. She needs to be teaching you that there are times that you sit back and let someone ELSE have THEIR lime light!
It AIN'T all about YOU!!!!!
Yes, this one is personal. My oldest daughter's first birthday pictures are, to me, (ok, well, "ruined" is too harsh a word but .... ) because a nephew of about 8 years old had to sit right next to her and every single picture of my daughter has the nephew in it, not watching her eat cake or open gifts or anything, but posing and cheesing it up for the camera!
It makes my blood boil when people say "retard" or "Retarded" One..it IS offensive even if the people offended are not "retarded" Two..it makes you sound unintelligent in the fact that you cant think of other words to use. Three..if you say it in front of your kids...they WILL grow up to say it too.
Also, I hate children who have NO manners. Agh it makes me SO mad.
IndyDebbi I agree about the kids that have to be front and center at someone elses party that has always drivin me nuts people always tell me to lighten up its a party but I cant stand it I almost want to section off with rope and area for my child only during present time you cant even get good pictures cause other kids are all crowded around. one time I had a mom bring her 4 children to my DD 2nd b-day and her four kids wanted to get to those gifts so bad that even when I had sat them farther back her 8 year old was kicking his foot at the present trying to open it and she did nothing I could have screamed. you can imagine my poor kids at other people's parties I make them sit way in the back I know they cant see because of other peoples rude kids but mine are not going to be that way.
