I would love to know someone who does not have a pet peeve. If there was a person like that, I want to be their friend. They would be peaceful to be around. I hate arrogant people that have nothing to be confident about. THey open their mouth and make fools of themselves.
Many! I agree that everyone probably has at least a few. My own peeves include people who tap on aquariums (I really just want to blow an air horn in their ear and see how THEY like it), bad table manners -- especially smacking lips or chewing with your mouth open -- and people who choose not to learn anything and are extremely low on natural intelligence who get mad because they think everyone around them is just trying to make them feel stupid...maybe sometimes those feelings should be listened to rather than blamed on others...
Ignorant people
People who don't take responsibility for their own actions
Bullies
Lazy customer service people
My pet peeve is rude people. It is amazing how many rude people there are in the world. It doesn't take any more effort to be nice to those around you than to be rude. Saying please and thank you are simple means of respecting others. Rude people tend to not respect others. I vote for more respect in the world!

What are your pet peeves?Off the top of my head- when people don't use their signal lights and when other people talk to me when I am on the phone.

Do you have a pet peeve? If you do, share with us what it is and what you think could be done to make it better.

My latest pet peeve is when people write "now-a-days" in an article. I see it a lot. What are your pet peeves?

There is the ubiquitous "theres" vs. theirs," but it also irks me when people say "I could care less" when they really mean they COULDN'T care less about something.
