What are your pet peeves?

For me, one of my biggest pet peeves is how many people can't spell "lose". It's so bad, it's like a typographical error epidemic has been loosed on the world.

Right now my pet peeve is IBHS (itchy butt hole syndrome) and I've got a ferocious case of it!

When I sit to long I get BSTL (ball stuck to leg).

When I sit too long, I spontaneously combust.

Chewing Gum! I hate everything about it, the sound, that people stick it everywhere, that people feel the need to play with it with their fingers while it is still in their mouth, the big sticky bubbles, the fact that it makes one look a cow chewing it's cud. *Shudder*

Heh. Me too. Growing up on a farm with a herd of cattle turned me off to chewing gum.

There is a 'Lose Hill' near me in the Peak District. I have done the Lose Hill to Mam Tor ridge walk. People launch hang gliders from up there.

Pet hates include people who read the Sun and people who don't punctuate their sentences properly. Then there's the whole 'there' and 'their' thing. I mean how difficult can that be?

Also they're.
The "alot" and "allot" make me cringe - it's "a lot", two words

It's pronounced as one word, which is why I think a lot of people misconstrue its correct written form.

People who are so small minded that they treat anything new and different like a small child treats boiled okra and spinach.

boiled spinach is how my mom prepped it all my youth, upon service, we added butter and lemon juice, quite good really
