Two wildly different things:

People cracking their knuckles. It's like fingernails on a blackboard to me. I will literally stop mid-sentence and ask someone to please stop doing it, it makes me that crazy.

Passive-aggressives that drive at or below the speed limit in the left lane for miles on end because "they pay for both lanes", when they are really trying to make the point that they are not going to let anyone go faster than them because they are apparently the guardians of the road (and/or speed limit). People - you are not cops, you are not my mother - the left lane is for freaking passing, not parking.

yeah, I'm not walking barefoot where it's the social norm to have shoes on. Though I have delivered a calf barefoot before. But I don't know about social norms for farms.

Social norms for farms would be if it doesn't kill you it's all good. That knife you use around the barn run it under the water once wipe it off your good to cut cheese and summer sausage.
 
I feel like that Lost Boy in Hook. "GTO has Kids??...."

You must not have followed his gameday blog. I'm pretty sure he mentioned his kids in that blog. Damn I can't wait for BB so we can get more journalism like that.:smile:
 
Finding out now how hauntingly true, Office Space is during these initial post graduation years rather than the hilarious comedy I had come to appreciate.
 
Many have already been mentioned...

Registration stickers all over the license plate
People who don't use cruise
Tailgaters: A more specific example would be people going significantly faster than you. (i.e. - speeding) The left lane is completely clear, but they have to come up and kiss your bumper before changing lanes. Then, they cut you off coming back into the right lane.

Grammar/spelling = lose v. loose! They mean two VERY different things! Those bugged by there/their/they're - you're/your - to/too/two...at least those are homophones. Lose and loose are pronounced completely differently. (Unless you have a strange accent or dialect)
 
People are stupid. They are my biggest annoyance.

DH says this about me. That I hate people. He's probably not wrong.

Can I say I hate most people? Love my wife and son. Outside of that, friends, other family, strangers, coworkers, etc always find a way to annoy me.

Semi-:jimlad:

We are conversing on the internet. There's a pretty good chance that a lot of us are misogynists. :smile:

Edit: I mean misanthropes. Words are hard.

Spelling errors and misusing the wrong word. I just had a friend use torcher in a tweet when he meant torture.

Like wtf
 
People going out in public with pants falling down and lots of crack showing. Saw a guy at the grocery store, he seemed to be in every aisle with me, and only buying things on the bottom shelf. I guess it kept me from buying anything that would make my pants fall down, but still. Fill the car up with gas right after, another guy.
 
Yeah, definitely misanthropes. Yeah, that's what I was going for.
Sometimes I think I just have a low tolerance for people's bull ****. I'm a pretty straightforward person and expect others to be the same. I hate dealing with drama and keep my life as drama-free as possible.
 
I always am annoyed when the rental car associate keeps trying to sell me insurance after I've told them that I decline. Enterprise is the worst.
 
That little satin/silky edging on blankets. I don't like to touch it, especially if the skin on my hands is dry and catches on it. Same with snowmobile suits. The sound of a kid in a snowmobile suit walking with that stuff rubbing together just drives me bananas. Gives me a shiver and makes the hair on my arms stand up. Just thinking about it does the same. No idea why.
 
I found out this weekend that I have a new petty annoyance...when people use chopsticks but clearly don't know how to use them. This girl was using them completely incorrectly and was dropping all her food, but she wanted people to recognize that she was using them. She kept holding them up so people would notice them. Severely annoying.
