Those familiar with the work of AVGN/James Rolfe will know this well. If not, here's a sampling: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV0M9_NwMHYSo, what are your pet peeves, big or small, with everyday life and work? |

People who don't answer their phones and don't know when to stop email correspondence for my work peeves. Home peeves are people who harris and dayboo. It makes me grim ace.

Those people who take up the whole of the pavement and then give you a dirty look because there group has to split for you. Also those who when you are crossing the road, cross your path at an angle forcing you to stop in front of traffic.

I can't stand burnt toast. I loathe bus stations. Terrible places. Full of lost luggage and lost souls.

People who don't effen respond to txt msgs.. yet you can see them "collecting the likes " on bookface.. Just purposely ignoring.. I have started MANY a family argument over that.. As far as I am concerned you give up the right to be treated like an adult.. Your physically holding the phone in your hand- you can see the msg pop up that requires an urgent response.. GGRR  |

Working in the tourism and service industry, I've got a collection
People who are unnecessarily nasty
People who don't at least put down their phone when someone is ringing up their purchase
People who think they're entitled because they paid for this vacation
Bratty kids who don't listen to their parents
Bratty kids period

I got so many to name so I'll just say everything annoys me cause I'm a grumpy git.
One of my most annoying pet hates, when listening to a Doctor Who Big Finish i can guarantee the phone will ring during a tense moment.

Banks!
These days everything is electronic, transfers, direct debits, standing orders, no human intervention needed. So why, why, WHY, can they not process anything on a Sunday or a "bank holiday"?
Cheers

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

People who constantly complain about what life has not given them rather than count their blessings.
To them I say- whenever you feel like complaining take a look at the homeless ..

If I was in a wheelchair, I'd just run them down. But then again, I just don't give a s**t nowadays lol "I warn you, this life support chariot also features ramming speed..."
In no particular order: Wrangling with the Oxford comma like its a boa constrictor. There's nothing that can't be fixed with a bit of rephrasing. Although, I will miss the misconception that "she was very fond of her custodians, Sting and J-Pop." Cruelty to cats and dogs. Discworld's Death pretty much embodies my attitude on the subject of the former, but the latter is something I find unconscionable because of the slavish nature of dogs. You have to be pretty cowardly to hurt an animal who is so humbled by you that it won't hurt you back. Hospitality workers will know this one well, I was reminded of it through a conversation had over a game of Uno. The argument that can essentially be boiled down to some variation of "How dare you know what you're talking about." Crystallised most explicitly for me as a child by one adult yelling at another adult at the bus stop because they knew what the weather forecast was. One getting sick because one refuses to rest and then bringing that sickness home with them to spread around. Virus by proxy, super. |

GGRR To add to the "collecting the likes" category, i know a set of people who simply upload photos with the sole aim to collect maximum likes, those who tag their every little location and activity - I had coffee, i got up at 9 a.m etc .. i mean who's interested in knowing every little detail of your life ? |

"So..." began little Timmy as he rotated on the spit. "How did the local community hall meetings degenerate into a cult centred around cannibalistic ritual?" Margaret tapped her lip thoughtfully. "Well, young man," she said finally. "It all began with a misaligned typewriter..." |
