For those whose pet peeve involved too many items in the 10 items or less line at the supermarket, I very highly reccomend a movie called, Ten Items or Less. It's a wonderful, independent film starring Morgan Friedman in a terrific role.
Now, my pet peeves? I've got a couple.
When driving, it's when people stop when they come to a yield sign - yet there is no traffic!! There is an intersection of three roads on my way to work, and my road merges with one of them. There is a yield sign there, but you can easily see if any traffic is coming in the other lanes and whether or not you're going to have to yield. But I swear, if there is someone ahead of me at the intersection, they will stop at the yield sign then turn around to look over their left shoulder to see if there is any traffic. I've almost rear ended a couple of those idiots there. Christ, it's pretty simple: yield means yield if necessary, stop means stop.
The other pet peeve is to be watching TV with someone, they flick to a new show, you've both been watching it for about 10 seconds, and they start asking you questions about it as though you've been watching it for hours. Both my ex-wife and current partner do it.
Wow. I feel better already. I think I'm going to be a better person after this!
