Stupid Pet Peeves

I hate wet skin. Especially wet hands and wet jeans and a wet back.

Not a pet peeve really, not a phobia. I just hate it.
 
Mods giving neg rep for a post that wasn't even directed to them because they assume to know how you interact with certain posters(on and off JFz.) whadduya do?
 
People in huge trucks driving like they've got no place to be.
 
How about just huge trucks, whether they're being driven or just parked?

Too many trucks that are just too big for many of our streets and roadways.
 
Inversely, People in huge trucks driving like they've got someplace to be 15 minutes ago

Especially the punk *** early 20's construction workers who think 600 ft lbs of torque means they have to pull a 10,000 lb flatbed trailer at max speed through the city.

Pet peeve: not having to get an endorsement to pull a trailer.
 
Buses having to stop at every railroad crossing. So the crossing lights, signs and arms are just fine for 99.99999% of the traffic on the road, but because it's for the kids we need extra precaution?

Time to do away with that one.

When a big *** truck can't seem to fit in the parking space I have a fun game I like to play where I park just as close to the line as they do and block their door.

I'm driving a POS beater with 200,000 miles on it so they can go ahead and take their frustrations out on my car if it makes them feel any better.
 
When I go to a public bathroom with just a toilet (no urinal) to urinate only to discover that the *** hat before dropped a big old deuce and didn't flush. I swear to all that is Holy, if I ever see a guy do this, I will shove his face into said toilet.
 
Automated phone solicitation calls where the automated voice tells you it is not an automated voice but a real person.

I've received these call three times now. The first time I asked if I was talking to a recording and it responded with a laugh and said "Well, no one's ever asked that before" then I hung up.

This last time I played a long a little longer. Turns out they're trying to get you to enroll in classes somewhere. I asked if they had classes in sexual deviation, the voice recommended information technology and the like. I asked if they had classes in prostitution, because she sounded like a prostitute, it recommended classes in business management. When I used words relating to genitalia too many times it hung up on me.
 
Websites I view on my phone, which scroll down just before I click (touch) on a link so that I end up clicking on an ad instead of the link I wanted.

then again, both on phones and laptops, there are the ads that take up almost the entire screen so you can't help but click them if you want to get to the content
(and as you scroll down, the ad scrolls down the screen too)

and even worse when there's audio along with it
