Pretty much anyone who is very serious about being a 'grammar nazi' is annoying as shit. They usually aren't very bright themselves, so they take this one thing and nitpick it to death like that's making up for it. It's especially horrible when they are the kind who want to use big words that they don't use in the right context, or use words they don't really need to so as to sound even smarter. Someone I know once said the phrase "it will send you a digital e-mail" and will often say "we determined" with a degree of frequency that is just retarded, where most people would say "we thought/figured/decided".

Also people who put on random accents for some reason. It's usually really shitty cockney English accents as I guess that is easiest for people to imitate for some reason. It isn't quirky or cute, you sound annoying. And slipping random Spanish words into your conversation because you took Spanish I in high school isn't endearing or impressive either.

That makes me think also of people who try way too hard to be perceived as 'weird' or whimsical and ultra-creative. Especially if they are out of high school. If you can make/do cool things, that's cool, show me that. I don't want to hear about how you are just so free spirited because you 'get' Dr Seuss and walk around barefoot in the grass sometimes or you just have such a unique way of interpreting the world or some bullshit like that.

I chose it! :D

My pet peeves:

1. People clicking a pen / tapping their fingers / talking loudly or quietly / all of the above while someone else is talking.
2. Bad drivers. I have terrible roadrage.
3. When I tell someone something and they don't listen. Which, on it's own isn't that bad... until another person says the same thing and then boom.
4. Customers who get to the front of the line. Stand there while the the line grows. And then, "Oops, I forgot something. BRB." And then "Oh, crap. I left my money at home."
5. A lot of things. I am a very pissy person.

When people chew with their mouth open. Also, when people add a superfluous letter r to their pronunciation of certain words. (Such as saying 'idear', rather than 'idea'.)

My pet peeves include the word lol, someone calling themselves an otaku as in that they love anime, and people who aren't Japanese speaking Japanese.

And then there's the Red Versus Blue fights. I don't mean the show, I'm talking about fan wars between to different things that should get along.

Pretty sure you would murder me then. Almost all of these are results of just being a generally spacey person, which I very much am.

1. People

1. Chronics Hypocrites
2. People who can't realize how loud they are
3. People who find out I have a thing about personal space and try to get closer to me to test it
4. When people try to brown nose.
5. Smacking. Instantly turns me off my meal.
6. Incessant verbal pauses. Stop, think of what you want to say, then talk to me.
7. People talking/texting on the phone while in the car. If it's an emergency, pull off to the side. Don't endanger everyone else for your conversation.
8. Thinking you're above pain medicine and looking down on those who do take it. I will shank a bitch and then tell them they're above pain medicine. ... *coughs*
9. Feminazis.
10. People groaning when someone has a question

I should probably stop there

I get really mad when people are incredibly generous, and then proceed to reject every form of charity or help. I hate those people.
