Lots of the peeves already said, and more.

My biggest pet peeve is probably children using netspeak. If I don't think you have sufficient grasp of grammar, spelling, and sentence structure in proper English, I'm going to be very annoyed when you start using shorthand. And you're only going to annoy me further by offering insufficient excuses like "Proper English is for school."

Perhaps my other big peeve is that I'm occasionally absentminded. This is problematic when I'm being absentminded about something important.

Most of the other peeves, excepting for the ones about working in retail, I have, but to lesser degrees. I think, though, much of it can be balled up into that I have a pet peeve against all forms of Willful Stupidity or Ignorance. Including my own.

Woooooo, buddy. I have TOO many on my list of pet peeves... maybe I should write then all in a journal... take up, like, a lot of journals XD.

ANYWHO. I'll just try to list the ones that annoy the crap outta me.

1: People who talk/chew with their mouths open and make that disgusting, wet smacking noise when they do. IT PISSES ME OFF. I will cringe... so badly... and glare..
2: People who suck their teeth too much. I blame my dad for this one. I can't stand it.... OOOOOOOH the standing that I cannot accomplish!!! ACCOMPLEEEESH!!!
3: People that sprinkle one or two Japanese words into their sentence, thinking it'll make them sound cool. And it's ALWAYS the same three words: Kawaii, baka, neko. I cannot STAND those words now. It makes me want to CRUSH people when I go to conventions... it's...ugh.. x_x
4: People who make it their business to tell me who is and isn't hot. I don't give a shit if you think the guy or girl "over there" is hot. I really don't. If it doesn't have anything to do with me or a possible intruiging conversations, I don't want to hear it.
5: People who are OBSESSED with Japanese animation. I like it too, but COME ON!!! Some people don't realize that they AREN'T "anime" characters. You know the ones... anywho. I hate when I'm trying to have an INNOCENT discussion about something that just HAPPENS to be Japanese animation, and then a herd of these sweaty, overweight guys just leak from the tiles around me and form into a giant mass of fanboyishness. They geek over all this CRAP I don't care about- and then get th-- OH! Next Pet peeve...
6: PEOPLE WHO DON'T RESPECT MY PROPERTY. ESPECIALLY my drawings. I could count on all my fingers and toes HOW many times I've had people spill coffe, soda, tea, milk, or any other liquid beverages on my artwork. Even if it's a LITTLE splash, I WILL get pissed off. I've lost so much artwork from other people's carelessness. I also hate it when people use my art stuff without permission. That'll black list you for sure.
7: MOST fandoms are a peeve of mine.
8: People who condescend to me because of my height without proper justification. The QUICKEST way to get me to hold a grudge is to insult my height. I'm 5'4"; I'm PROPORTIONATE. I do not like being called "MIDGET"; nor do I appreciate any JOKES about my hieght- period. OOOoooooh I sincerely HATE IT when people insult my height. OH, comments like.. "WOW!! You're REALLY that short!?", or "Haha! Bumbles is a midget"(hey! I remember THAT one from a PO chat a LONG while back! =_=), or when women tell you that "short men can't protect them" and stuff. Hahaha... yeah. Being shorter than most people ROCKS. =_=;; OH! OH!!! But I'm CUTE because I'm short, right? Because I'm short, I'm just SOOOO adorable! Haha haha haha. =_=
9. When people assume that because you're over 18, you have to stop liking things. Because I say crazy things, it's immature, right? Fff... and while we're ON THAT:
10: People who don't apply the term IMMATURE correctly.
11: Feeling like I have to keep in contact with friends/close whens and it not being the other way around. I just give up now- contacting people, I mean. I figure once a month/two months should be a nice amount of time to qualify as "KEEPING IN CONTACT", but that's just too hard for people.
12: This never was the case, but after this year, I fucking hate it when my close circuit of "friends" ignore my birthday(especially when they know when it is). This stems from the lack of keeping in contact and this city;s populace just plain sucking.
13: Religious Zealots. I don't even declare myself an ATHEIST anymore because of people going too into their religion; I just don't have anything, and I don't want anything(religiously speaking). Yet, for some reason, I STILL find that people make it THEIR business to tell me how HORRIBLE my life will be without it? Look, I have my reasons for thinking how I do, you have your reason, you know? Back off, and we'll be friends.
14: When I write long posts ^_~
15: the "OMGWTFBBQ" line. It's so old... it makes me want to drive a spike into someone's face everytime I see it!
16: People who bring babies into movies they shouldn't BE IN. I went to see TEAM AMERICA last year. There was a baby in the audience. WHY was there a baby in the audience?! Was someone pregnant and then LAUGHED so hard it popped out?
17: People who TALK during movies. Because I didn't pay my $5.50-10 to listen to the movie; this ticket was to hear YOU talk so LOUDLY about whatever pathetic thought just CROSSED your mind SO much that you felt a whisper couldn't POSSIBLY illustrate how excited you are over that little thought you had about the actors left neck hair. Yeah. Go you! And then BUDDY OVER HERE has a CEL PHONE that keeps ringing!! TURN IT OFF OR ON VIBRATE BUDDY!!!! I mean, I DO appreciate hearing the SAME Ludacris rap OVER AND OVER again, really. I mean "get back!" indeed; I know I don't "know you like that." Make sure I can see that annoying tweety bird cel-phone wallpaper too, while you're at it. That'd make my day.
18: When a huddle of nerds finds it their mission to gather and sing every video game song they can. Please repeat that Zelda intro for me; I have NEVER heard it before. That rendition of Super Mario brothers you do? The one where you go word-for-word on that Group X "Mario Twins" cartoon? GOLD.
19: OH! Work related peeve! When my tablet won't respond to the computer and I have to restart. It's just a whole 1-2 minutes I have to sit out, but it's STILL so annoying.
20: Forgetting to save my work- or something turning off while I was saving, rendering the file useless.

and I figure I'd stop there... XD
I hope no one had a pet peeve of LONG POSTS XD, haha....hah...once I start, I gotta force myself to stop! Back to work.

21: When I have SO much work to do, and not enough hours in the day to get it down.
...why can't I have the power to manipulate time!?

more from me

- Closed minded people

- People that don't look you in the eye when you talk to them (I understand looking away every once in a while, but when you don't even bother to give people respect enough to look at them while they are talking. It's just disrespectful)

- People who make too many assumptions that are ALL incorrect

- People who talk shit about those assumptions when the person who they are talking about isn't there to defend him/herself

- People who ruin other people's lives then act like they had nothign to do with it.

- People who take the word of ignorant people as fact instead of finding out for themselves.

I'm actually venting a little about something. A few people may know what, but most of you won't. And unless it is said by someone else, it will stay that way.

People driving with their hazard lights(cautions) on in the rain.
IT DISABLES YOUR BLINKERS
When you turn on your hazards on your turn signals no longer work so people cannot tell if you are turning or changing lanes. I have almost been plowed over by many a retard with their hazards on deciding they wanted to change lanes on the interstate.
In Tampa I would rarely see someone user their hazard lights while driving. And the rain in Atlanta is NOTHING compared to the regular heavy storms we would get in Florida.

I have said, "If I was a cop I would drive around in the rain and just pull people over that were using thier hazards." I would even have them keep their window open just to be an a$$.

My pet peeves include the people in the movie theater who are like "OMG JHONNY DEPP OMG" Because in real life, people have bad grammar in speech...
Or are like, "Don't you open that door! Nuh uh! DON'T OPEN IT! Ahhhh... she opened it... now she's dead... Told her not to open it!"
Then there are people who use Netspeak in little notes they pass around...
U is not a word...
And people who say 'like' too much, "Like, like, like, like oh my Gawwwwd!"
