Being asked to repeat myself. Sometimes it won't bother me, but there are certain ways that people can ask or when I'm in certain moods that I feel like flipping out if I'm asked even once!!!

Mean people are my biggest peeve. I can't stand mean people.

Traffic in the afternoon. It takes us less than an hour to get to work and an hour and a half to get home. GRRR!

Hmmm, repeating myself doesn't bother me, 'cause I am very soft-spoken (unless I'm mad), but ignoring me, or asking me what I want to do, then doing something totally different, that peeves me!

My BIGGEST pet peeve really belongs on the IMO forum
So I'll say my biggest trivial pet peeve is people who smack when they chew food....argh

My biggest pet peeve is being touched (unless you're one of my CLOSE friends or family, nothing gives you the right to touch me.....I know, I'm weird, but I just don't like it), followed closely by people walking directly into my path and cutting me off without realizing it.

Most definitely hearing someone eat or chew, slopping or slurping, be it food, drink or gum. It drives me insane!
I believe I could be found not guilty of some bizarre crime for reasons of insanity!

Mine may also spark a debate on the IMO forum, but here goes:

Smokers who throw LIT ciggie butts from their cars while driving; onto other cars, the freeway etc. Where ya think those butts are going, eh?

I saw a mulch fire the other day in my city cuz someone threw out a lit cig butt. There was also a mulch fire at the daycare my daughter attended several years ago cuz one of the parents threw the LIT butt into the very dry WOOD mulch. DUH???

So that's a peeve. What part of smoldering butt + combustible things = FIRE don't people get? extinguish the butt before you throw it out... better yet... use this thing called an "ash tray".

Mine is something along the same lines: It irritates the **** out of me when someone asks a question, clearly having decided what the answer is, and then [1] can't accept the answer that is given, and [2] insists on asking the question three or four more times in only slightly different words, in an attempt to elicit the answer they want.

I just got another one from my Cognitive Psych class. I get SOOOOOOOOO irritated when the professor (or anyone for that matter) makes a statement, and a moment or two later somebody feels the need to raise their hand and REPEAT the statement as if THEY just thought of it and are the smartest people in the world!! ARG. That drives me nuts. I can't even remember what htey said today, but I was just sitting there thinking, "Ok did you NOT just hear her say that EXACT thing?! What is your problem?!"

I guess that kind of goes along with my hating to be asked to repeat myself! There's just no need to hear it twice!
