Stupid Pet Peeves

People who have cell phone conversations with it on speaker as they wander around the store. I don’t even want to deal with them in my way, it’s only worse when I have to hear both sides of the conversation.

Yeah, I really want to ask them WTF they are doing that for and if they know how douchey and annoying they are.

Edit, I tried to find a pic of how the jackasses usually hold their phone when they're doing this but I couldn't find one even though I tried 10 different ways to word it in google image search. But they have the phone parallel to the ground with the speaker end next to their mouth and the screen facing towards the sky. Makes me want to smack the phone out of their hands.

I hate this. In the break room at work too

Just walk by them saying "**** **** **** **** **** ****" as loud as you can. Act mad or just have fun with it. I bet they move on or stop.
 
I can't stand when people talk on the phone loudly when in the ****ter so I flush the toilet repeatedly and make loud grunting and groaning noises.

The ****ter is not the place for a phone conversation. I refuse to do it.

What go to the toilet? Its school holidays here at the moment, i was stuck on the train going to a gig on Tuesday night and this nauseating adolescent had her phone on loud speaker while she was on call waiting and then continued to talk on the phone while it was on loud speaker. It was all I could do not to get up and stomp on the phone. I could have moved seat, I was two stops away from changing train anyway and stomping on the phone would have been so much more rewarding.
 
Pretty sure I’ve mentioned this before, but people who walk through a door (like entering a store) and immediately stop.
 
Along with these others, people who slowly turn one way while craning their head the other way. Ran into this at the mall today. Some guy just wandering around made a slow turn toward me, covering a good 4-5 feet and blocking me off (along with other people walking so I couldn't pass), while looking the other direction. I just stood there until he literally bumped into me, then he was pissed that I was in his way. I should have the right to shoot that guy on the spot.
 
Websites that require you to log in to e.g. see a price or add something to a cart, but then bump you back to the home page after logging in instead of keeping you on the product page you were just on. So then you have to renavigate to whatever product you were looking out, or whatever search filters you had going on. This has happened several times to me in the last week. Frustrating. Sometimes you can hit the browser back button a couple of times after logging in, then hit refresh to look at the page you were at before while now being logged in. But not always.
 
I hate when my cigarette runs out and I immediately want another. An a nother shot of my moonshine.

Oh boris, you scamp.










Seriously if everyone either had him on ignore or replied to every single post of his with "oh boris you scamp" it would mitigate the boris issue

I know exactly what you are talking about because I do it. Never in a public place though only at home or in my car.

For some reason I guess it seems like having the speaker closer to your mouth will allow them to hear you better. It drives my girlfriend crazy because she tells me it doesn't make a difference (it doesn't, she's right).

Maybe, I should stop since multiple people find it annoying. But.. I'm by myself or with her when I do it so I'm not going to.

I do this. Had no idea it doesn't make a difference in them being able to hear me.

Fixed that for you.
 
People who drop horrible smelling deuces in public restrooms and don’t give courtesy flushes. In the last couple days I’ve walked into this a couple times. I go in to take a leak and end up gagging because some dude’s in the stall dropping the worst smell imaginable, times ten.

Where I work there are 5 restrooms, one is directly attached to the locker room. We all have to change into our uniforms for work and we have to walk through the locker room to get to/from the break room. So my pet peeve is when someone drops a smelly deuce in the locker room bathroom instead of using one of the 4 other options.
