Pet Peeves
By Crystal K., resident Pet Peeves Documentator

Whether it be fingernails on the chalkboard or that endless sea of bleached blond hair, we all have that one thing "that just gets underneath our skin and makes us completely insane!" (Meg Ryan, French Kiss). Perhaps yours happens to be the long and pointless chain letters that constantly circle about the online world. Well, here are just a few of those little things that drive "ordinary" people up the wall.

"I hate it when a teacher drops something on the floor and then never picks it up, or when they don't erase the board all the way! But more importantly, I totally can't stand hypocrites or people who use you!"

"Mine would have to be the endless desire for everyone to be like everybody else! I think it is just a society/media thing. Weird, huh? It's like... all these people walking around wearing skating and surfer shirts. You don't skate or surf and you know it! So yeah... that's my pet peeve."

"I hate rude people, and warm soft drinks, cold pizza, music you can't understand the lyrics to, and dirty clothes (I won't even wear jeans twice without washing them): I always bleach my whites."

-Anthony S.
Gonzo814@yahoo.com

"People with double standards. People who judge without knowing what they are talking about, and people who try so hard to be someone else, instead of themselves."

-James Wands

"My pet peeve is people who have pet peeves."

-Jason Cross

"Girls who giggle."

-Becky E.

"Ignorance."

-James Naugle

"People who act like you exist solely for their use."

-Marcus Jones

"I can't stand it when teachers walk away from the chalkboard without erasing it all the way! That drives me crazy! Also when people just act stupid."

-Stephanie

"I hate it when you can hear people chewing, and I hate it when people don't wear matching shoes."

-Meghan

"When guys don't know what they want in a relationship."

-Daisy

"I really hate it when you meet someone and you are going to shake their hand, right... and they shake it all softly! I like a firm handshake, not some weak "THING"! I also hate people that waddle when they walk; I don't hate them, I just hate that kind of walk."

-Cindy A.

"People I don't know or teachers [that] tend to go off telling me their life stories."

-L.A.G.

"Stupid people, obviously!"

-N.K.

"Well, when guys spit right in front of you and when they fix their package, that is so gross!"

-Anonymous

"I can't stand it when people drive slowly in the passing lanes or the carpool lanes."

-Anonymous

"Retail employees should be hooked up to electrodes and zapped when they chat instead of ringing up their customers."

-Anonymous
