Another of my pet peeves, is selective memory.

Like when my brother owes me money and he says he paid me, and I know he has not.

I will say to him, "You need to have your brain checked you have early signs of Alzheimer."
He will say, "Me???!!! Its you with the bad memory!"
Then I will get mad and say, "Just forget about it!!!"

I totally understand about money, I get super frustrated with things like this as well

I always go to the waterpark, and there's always an unflushed toilet somewhere, it's just disgusting!
Really? Can't you take the two extra seconds to put the lever and flush it? I can't unsee what I have seen.

Oh my gosh, thank you! My blood was boiling when I saw this video ! Wanted to punch that guy in the head unch:! He's lucky enough to witness such an awesome animal and he disrespects it and everyone around by doing something so stupid and idiotic. And the worst part is he thinks he's a tough guy now. What a meathead! Please someone tell me they caught him and he got in trouble. How about a lifetime ban on all national and state parks? Would never happen but it should...

Agree totally.

When you are selling something.. in this case I am adopting puppies out.. and people call and say oh they want to come meet the puppies they will be there around 6 or so.. and then they never show up!!!!!!! And in the meantime I am waiting around, doing nothing!! Is it really so hard to pick up the phone and shoot me a text.. I can't make it after all!!! Some people just have absolutely no consideration for others!! ... Or... I have a super low adoption fee on these little guys.. like less than a humane society.. and people call and say.. will you take less?? I can only afford to pay so much ect... I am sorry but if you can't afford to pay this small amount for the puppy how are you going to swing all it's vet bills???!!! Any way.. rant over..lol

Thank you for charging a fee. I cringe seeing free to good home. Too easy for not good homes to grab n go.
Wish I could have a puppy.

Pee all over the toilet seat. I understand that accidents happen but at least wipe up after yourself.

For those of us that have ever been to MadI Gra in Galveston, Texas they put out the port a potties for the public to use. Those things are horrible, as a man I want even stand in one to pee, let alone what it would be like for a lady.......

Mine was New Orleans. A long looong looooong time ago. Only part of that movie I really enjoy. Anyway, you are SO right. I wouldn’t even attempt it now. But back in the day ladies got all these free whirly swirly drinks. Ugh. Good to be old!

When pet store employees give really bad advice.

For example:
Me: So how many bloody parrot cichlids can we keep in a 75 gallon tank?
Pet store employee: Uhhh... Twelve would be fine.
Me: Twelve?! Are you sure?
Employee: Yes I’m sure

(This actually happened for real, but don’t worry I actually bought 2 thanks to fishlore )

Also it’s really annoying when you’re standing next to someone and the employee is giving them all the wrong advice and you really want to correct them but you can’t. No you can’t put fish in the tank two days after putting TSS in an uncycled tank

Time to bring this back up again.

When I'm at a bookstore and I see someone licking his/her finger before flipping a page.

Whistling. Something about the noise makes me go from "perfectly benign" to "contemplating homicide" in a few seconds.

Having a big essay to write, and being too distracted to pull myself together.

Agree completely on both counts. I actually had to tell a guy to stop whistling in the library. Like really, bro?

I cannot stand that either, it's really annoying actually.
Plus, it's also very bad hygiene if your hands are or could have been dirty.
I have hand washing issues, and germ OCD.

Most recent pet peeves of mine?
People telling me "Oh my goodness, what a mess you have here!" when I am still in the room working on what is a "mess" to them but not to me.
There's an order for my disorder.

You know what? Being hypersensitive sucks. 'cause it means getting peeved by almost anything. Like for instance, I'm trying to focus on a dumb essay, and every stinking building I try to work in has the draftiest AC that keeps distracting me.

People complaining about my dog when they come over.

Oh yeah, well, sorry. He lives here, not you & I like him more. Deal with it

I hate people who eat off your plate without asking first......I remember having breakfast at a diner once and the guy sitting next to me dipped his bread in my fried egg!

Pet peeves: People talking on the phone in the quiet reading room at my library. Its sickening. People chewing with their mouths open, it drives me insane. Stupid people saying stupid things, yes I know that sounds really dumb but "Wait, I didn't know that wood came from trees" just grates on my nerves. Fanatic football fans. Yes, I know my signature says the browns, but honestly, some people just act like idiots about football. Oh and people saying "like" Urrrrhhhhh...find another way to express yourself.

Anyhow, rant over, but seriously, the eagles fans act like they won WWII when they won the superbowl, super annoying

I think it's sad when I'm at a restaurant and see how many people are engrossed in their phones and ignore the people they are with, including their children.

I cringe when people say that they just got a new betta (it's invariably followed by and a betta tank, which is usually less than a gallon).

The Philidelphia eagles franchise. Yes, and the fans are obnoxious, or at least the fans I know. Although that probably goes for any football fans.

I would have at least been like, "Come on, man!" Seriously, that's pretty weird. I experienced weird things too. I was in the subway station and a homeless man comes up to me and says something. I couldn't understand him, although he repeated himself a few times. Finally, he grows impatient with me, grabs my water bottle out of my hand, unscrews the cap, dumps it all out onto the train tracks, and pees in it. I didn't really care. It was almost empty anyway.

I'm usually pretty forgiving when ppl talk in the library, as long as they're trying to be quiet. I can understand that. I had to do it myself. But what drives me mad is when people constantly text and their phones aren't on vibrate, and so I have to deal with hearing ppl type on their phone keyboard, send messages, and receive them. I mean, seriously? No other explanation other then that they're incredibly insecure.

Manspreaders on the bus.. like dude do you realize what you're doing or do you just feel entitled to my space? It's right up there with people who sit next to you when they don't have to. And then there's the people that do both, who I have to assume do it intentionally because they get a kick out of it.

One of my worst is when your feeling helpful and want to get stuff done and are cleaning up everything, and then BOOM someone tells you to do something and its like AHHHHHH I was already going to do it and now I don't want to!!!

Totally understand this one. My mother in law does it to me all the time. The moment she tells me to do something is the moment I decide I'm not going to do it.

I hate how some public restrooms or wherever have the faucet so close to the edge of the sink that it prevents you from washing without touching the nasty thing.
It may just be that I have huge hands, but who knows.
