Ooooh...pet peeves....
1) Smoking! Its sooo disgusting! I can't for the life of me see why someone would voluntarily do that to themselves. I guess I can't do do anything about them going off and smoking outside or something like that, but the smoke makes me gag and wheeze when they smoke around me. And even if they do go smoke somewhere else, they smell terrible when they come back. Seriously, douse on some perfume or something because I don't want to have to smell you. I think the absolute worst is when I'm trapped in a car with someone and they insist on smoking. And no, rolling the windows down does NOT help.
2) People with no tolerance for other people's beliefs. I have no problem with other peoples' religions or political beliefs. If anything, I love hearing about those beliefs because I like learning about things I don't know much about. But its so hard to have a decent conversation about such topics unless you share similar beliefs because 90% of the time, I get bombarded with "This belief is the only right belief in the whole world. No, what you're saying is completely wrong. I don't care, its still wrong. Anybody who doesn't believe what I believe is a fool and should convert immediately." Ahhhhhh.....I get that you totally believe what you believe and you have that right. But I have the right to believe what I want to as well. How hard is it to talk about these things without turning into nazis?
3) When my sister goes on a 20 minute monologue about how fat and ugly she is (ha. ha. like h*** she is), then spends the next 20 minuts talking about how hot and georgeous and everything about her appearance is perfect (ok, she's really pretty, but not that hot). Good god, make up your mind!
4) When I tell the girl/guy at Subway only a tiny tiny bit of honey mustard and they completely drown the sandwich. I really hate that
5) When people for making fun of me for being a "white girl" So what if I'm white? What's the problem with that? Maybe I like being white. Should i start calling you the "spick" or the "niggr"? I didn't think so. Which brings me to my next peeve...
6) Racial slurs. OMG its the 21st century people! We've already figured out that skin color has nothing to do with who a person is! Not to mention it makes you sound really uneducated. (or stupid, depending on how politically correct you are) My sister's boyfriend does this all the time. It p***** me off to no end. (and he does happen to be uneducated)
7) cheesy pick up lines 8) Drinking and driving 9) drugs and alcoholism 10) when people say they're going to do something, then don't do it 11) Really loud music, or noise in general (sensitive ears)
12) When people listen to half of a song on a cd, then get bored and change the song...and do it over and over again. Pick a song and listen to it already!
13) When people ask (in regards to my love affair with high heels) "Don't those hurt your feet?" Uh, no. If they did, I wouldn't be wearing them.
14) When someone who knows I'm a vegetarian brings me a burger from McDonalds. Then gets mad when I don't eat it.
15) When people who know that I do not like them ( Do not like looking at them, listening to them, or being in the same room with them), try to come up and be all friendly with me. Almost as if she thought I was kidding yesterday when I called her a w**** and told her to get away from me.
Wow. That felt really, really good. This is a great topic!

4) When I tell the girl/guy at Subway only a tiny tiny bit of honey mustard and they completely drown the sandwich. I really hate that
I've noticed they do that with mayonnaise. Who in the heck eats that much mayonnaise on a sandwich?!? It has to be pretty close to half a cup or more. 
OK, I'll share some...
1.) When my internet connection is slow. I really should be more patient with this, but because I host a server, I have business class internet, at $165 a month. With me paying that much out of my pocket, my internet should be able to outrun the Energizer Bunny, dangit! 
2.) When I'm trying to concentrate on something, but my nephew says "LALALALALA" or some other such jibberish for several minutes in a row without cessation!
3.) Tension. I am an easygoing guy. If there is a problem, let's take a breath and talk about it, rather than have a heavy blanket of tension settle over the house for the rest of the evening.
4.) Arrogance. Confidence is good (and sexy). Cockiness is good sometimes, too (and sexy). However, if you would like to think that you are better than me or anybody else, that's your choice - just do us all a favor and don't tell us about it.
5.) "Negative Inundation". Have you ever met anybody who was practically NEVER in a good mood? No matter what you told them, what you tried to do to encourage them, they were always down on themselves, and often other people, too. I think some people live to be in a pit, and want to stay in their own zone of self-pity. I think most of us enter this zone on occasion, but most of us don't stay there 99% of the time, either, and try to drag others down with us.
6.) Rap music. Good grief, just hit me on the head with a hammer and put me into a comatose state, at least until the song is over.
One more...this one is kind of strange...
7.) "Rose-colored encouragement." I am person who aims to please. That means I frequently try to live up to other's expectations, and they are aplenty. Encouragement is good, but when someone ONLY has the good to tell me, it bothers me.
I'll use weight loss as an example. I know I've lost a lot, and that I look decent, and that's I've worked hard, etc. and so on. Still, I have a big gut, I need to keep improving on my diet, and so on. When someone encourages me, I like to hear some criticism in there, too. I'm more likely to respect someone's opinion if it has both encouragement and criticism. I think deep down, I want my flaws to be acknowledged, in a constructive way, so that I can work on them. Or maybe...I'm just thinking too hard there.

1. People riding a bus who think they are the only passenger and talk on their cell phone as loud as they possibly can, laughing, screaming, or cussing.
2. Watching a movie at the theater while people behind me are crunching popcorn like it's going out of style.
3. People who drink a beverage from a fast food joint who suck on the straw and shake their cups to move the ice around every 10 seconds.
4. Pretty much anyone who brings attention to themselves by being loud in somewhat shape or form.
Okay, I'm out.
