Edder from I Don’t Care for your Tone shared her top 15 pet peeves and invited others to do the same. Here are mine:

  • Sniffing. If your nose is running, blow it.
  • When people don’t know how to use the words their, they’re or there.
  • Double negatives.
  • People without ethics. Just because others do it doesn’t mean it’s right.
  • When people say 'supposebly' instead of 'supposedly' or ‘praformance’ instead of ‘performance’.
  • Those that borrow books and don’t return them.
  • Drivers who perform dangerous manoeuvres in order to gain a car length or two.
  • People who don’t pull their weight at work.
  • Guests who don’t know when to leave.
  • Not covering your mouth while sneezing or coughing.
  • People who ask a dozen questions of the waiter before ordering.
  • Using the phone speaker function in a busy work area.
  • Whiners.
  • Callers who say their phone number too quickly at the end of a long rambling voice mail and you have to listen to the whole thing again to get the number.
  • People who drop cigarette butts on the beach.

  1. Maybe snow cones! Or people who come for dinner, bring shitty wine, then insist on opening it.

  2. People who sai "libary" instead of "library".

    Uninformed people who think if they talk louder they make more sense.

    People without manners.

  5. I didn't not know that people should'nt sneeze into they're hands. Supposebly it's not ethical.
