I thought this would be intresting for everybody to talk about their pet peeves. my peeves are.
1. Chatspeak on forums and rps (does it hurt to type a whole sentance?) 2. people who dont play racing games right (sorry iam kinda a perfectist when it comes to video games) 3. racist and sexist people. 4. people who judge others because of the way they look.

Oh, I had to think about this for awhile, but here's mine:
1. Getting ignored and Left out (especially by two other people that I usually RP with who are online at the same time I am) 2. People who speed on the road and who ride very close to my bumper (former makes me angry; later makes me nervous) 3. Racist and Sexist people (same as you, Sally) 4. Judgemental people 5. Not having an Internet connection at home (explains why I'm always on and at the library all the time) 6. People trying to force me to believe in the same diety (or religion) as they do (even when I say that I'm an atheist; now what the heck is wrong with being an atheist?)

OK, here's mine. I'm going to sound awfully cranky and maybe politically incorrect, but history backs me up on this.
1. Government intruding into an ever-larger part of our lives, and bureaucrats presuming we're too dumb to make our own decisions about our lives. Beyond a certain point, passing more laws never solves anything.
2. People who look down on rural folks/culture, and think we're all ignorant drunken inbreds and live in tarpaper shacks.
3. Media ghouls who stick their cameras in the faces of bereaved family members and friends after the latest going-postal event and play it up until some other psycho gets ideas.
4. The tendency of many to place all the blame - and all the fear - on inanimate objects for crime and violence rather than address the actual perpetrators. Whether firearms or boxcutters, it's just as counterproductive.
5. People who abuse, neglect or abandon children.
6. People who abuse, neglect or abandon animals.
7. Seeing kids on the street completely strung out on God-knows-what at 2AM. Where are their parents?
8. Celebrities who think being paid millions to act or sing exempts them from common sense or the laws of physics
9. Breed-specific legislation - "Let's outlaw (whatever breed of dog is the designated evil this week) and everything will be just safe and ducky!" Oh yeah, pick on thousands of perfectly inoffensive animals and responsible owners when the real problem is the lout on the other end of the leash!
10. Stupidity, infinite varieties to choose from.

Woah! I never saw this topic before.. o: The neat thing is, I just wrote in my journal for school most of my pet peeves! I'll just copy down from that. xD
1. When people go against what I say. (though arguments are sort of fun...)
2. When I have to be in a group or with a partner to do schoolwork. I'm a "one woman show".
3. When I have something to look forward to. - When my parents tell me, "Well at least you have something to look forward to!" with a huge, happy, smile.
4. Little kids. I'm and only child, I know nothing about them. They just get on my last nerve no matter what they do.
5. People think that they know something/everything about animals, when they don't. I usually end up having to correct them. Animals were my most favorite thing in the world before Cars, and I knew and memorized whatever information there was about them.
6. Social Studies. I didn't think that an hour and twenty-five minutes could ever get close to feeling like a century! But for Social Studies, I guess there is a suggestion.
7. Losing. I just don't handle it well, okay?
8. When I don't get any of my "Me Time" because of homework or some other kind of stupid reason.
9. The word "hot". Who came up with it anyway? I hate it. I scringe when I hear it. I say "cute".
10. Having to explain things to people. I'm no teacher.
11. Same as you, Sally, with the video game thing.
12. I'm not exactly racist, but some black people get on my nerves. The girls never do, it's just mostly the boys at my school. They're so overly obnoxious!
