lain:...oh, thought you...never mind.I hate people waving at other people who are next to or behind you...then they give you that look when you start to wave back. I find the best way to deal with it is to begin a conversation with them anyway and walk along doing that for a bit...until mall security shows up.
I also hate mall security.

I don't like it when my waitress or waiter are over-zealous about filling up my drink...last night, every time I took a sip of my sweet tea, she refilled the drink...:cheers:
I also don't like it when my server disappears for the length of the entire meal...
Ahhh, the Golden Mean...

Well, in your defense, it is hard to carry on a dinner conversation with a waitress hanging over your shoulder. :mmph:
Most of mine have to do with driving.
People who don't try to move towards the center of the road when making a left turn and you can't get by them.
People who don't go around people making a left turn when there is room to do so.
People who leave like 3 car lengths between them and the car in front of them when stopped at a red light.
People who don't turn right at a red light when it is legal for them to do so.
People who creep along at a snail's pace when going through a parking garage. They act like they've never parked before. Just find a space and pull into it!!
And, of course, people who go significantly under the speed limit.
That's about all I can think of now.

Those are both good. :up:
I have a similar one. People who try to start a conversation when you are trying to leave work. I just want to leave!

Hypocrites
People who seemingly are uncapable of answering simple, direct questions. It's like they have all kinds of great answers to questions I never asked them.
People who put party before principle.
People who worship human institutions like the Constitution, as if a man-made process matters more than the Bible.
Calvinists who inflict their destructive "doctrine" on innocent people, wrecking lives and twisting people's hearts against God. I know they are well-intentioned, but you know what they say about good intentions...
Bad drivers, including:
.. slow in the fast lane when people are passing them on the right (MOVE OVER!)
.. people who turn at an intersection in the far-left turn lane, only to immediately cross EVERY lane of traffic b/c they have to turn right at the very next intersection. HUH?

Oh, and my future pet cat, which will be a Norwegian Forest (Norskat).
I intend to name him "Peeve."

My biggest pet peeve has always been self-loathing/whining.
Whoa is me. My life is sooo bad.
Count your blessings you big baby.
Yes! That ranks up there for me.
I drive fast.
