Things That are No Big Deal But Still Bug the Crap Out of Me

This thread is hilarious because I share so many of these pet peeves. My husband leaves the wardrobe door open and it drives me bonkers.

Oh, and he keeps 5 big bottles of water in the fridge taking up space at all times. I know it's fine, but for some reason, it irks the crap out of me. Really FIVE?!

I HATE HATE it when people chew on the phone. The sound of mastication really grosses me on a good day, but on the phone, it's just awful.

Oh, and finally, the sound of constant coughing or sniffling. I think this pisses me off so much because you shouldn't be out spreading your germs, but it also pisses me off when it's allergies. It's just so disgusting.

Hate walking into a public restroom and hearing phone conversations. Seriously?! Hang up the phone. You can have that discussion when you get out of the bathroom. GROSS!!!

i can't stand people who drive giant SUVs who can't stay in their lane and constantly drift over into mine- it seems like these same people can never park their cars without taking up at least 2 spaces =grrrrrrhhhhh!

Holy Cow! And how does your husband know that the dog will only pee and not poop in there, too?!

+1 Axtually, any evidence of cigarette butts, smoking, etc really bugs me. I once asked a man not to sit next to me on the train because I could smell cigarette smoke (faintly) on his clothing. I lied and told him I had allergies.

You're a jerk. Why not hire a chauffeur?

Wasn't there a ridiculous multi-page thread about this a few months back?

Found it!

Original pp here - I hadn't seen that thread! A mom singing to a baby, quietly, wouldn't bug me. The singing along in Panera etc - yes, annoying.

11:29 - BINGO.

Funny, PP is the PITA and it did not occur to her to move. Typical D.C. PITA. Funny.
