It really grinds my gears when I'm interested in something and some genius comes along to produce a wall of text about why I shouldn't be interested in the thing. 

It's also always irritating to hear from people who say things like "But you HAVE to do this thing or else you're doing it wrong!" when it's about something as simple as wearing certain clothes. Generally that kind of people that demand others to act a certain way.

People that claim that they're so super nice and accepting yet they turn out to be homophobes or racists two minutes later. All homophobes and racists can step off my lawn as quickly as possible so my precious grass won't get tainted.

One of my pet peeves is also my old posts on some forums I was on when I was 12-15. Those are the kind of things that often haunt me in my sleep yet I still go back and see what I've written - and obviously feel disappointed that I can't slap the past me across the face for oversharing so much.

I don't really have anything that grind my gears too bad. But I do find it slightly annoying when people complain about my weird uses of capitalization on Discord when they themselves usually don't even always capitalize their single (I)s. I usually act super polite about it. But it does secretly annoy me a little.

People who see a problem, acknowledge said problem, and then proceed to try to figure out how to get around the problem instead of just solving it and being done with it.

I really dislike know-it-alls who actually know nothing. KInda like me.

When people make a huge point of bashing something they don't like. There are so many alternatives for expressing dislike; this scenario only occurs when someone wants everyone to KNOW how much they hate said thing for whatever reason.

For some reason it makes me surprisingly irritated when forums have avatar sizes of something like 90x90 or even smaller. How is it even possible to fit anything a bit more detailed into such a small box? Even 100x100 feels pretty small but having the size limits shrunk even more is frustrating.

I can drag myself down by thinking about things that makes me upset, however, it is sometimes not needed.

My pet peeve is when people make jokes at the wrong time.

I hate when people use “your” instead of “you’re” when they’re supposed to. Might as well delete “you’re” out of the dictionary!

[DubWolf 17,263]

When people cheapen something you worked hard to do  . Not that much, just makes me go “hmmmm”.

Hmm, what is not my pet peeve?

 

I hate that thing where you stop and tell somebody to go ahead and they stop and tell you to go ahead and it becomes a battle of wills disguised as politeness and I always cave. I especially hate when that happens at a stop sign and they flash their lights at you. 

 

I hate the phrase "good morning" or worse just "morning." I don't understand the point of people walking by you and just saying the word "morning" with no other interaction. And why do they say it like 20 hours a day? It's only morning when it's before noon and the sun is up.  (I know this doesn't make any sense but it irritates me.)

 

There are lots more but that's enough typing.

Currently it’s writing a whole paper about pet peeves and having to cite my opinions with sources. Mostly, citations are the main pet peeve cause they take so long and there’s times, like with this paper, that proof at this level isn’t even needed.

The word "please" in written instructions or directions. I'm all for people saying please, but when you're looking up a cake recipe, for example, and it says "please add 8 eggs" (I don't know, I don't bake many cakes). . . ugh. You're not asking me to do something, you're saying, "Do this. Follow the instructions or don't, but this is how it's done." Please has no place there.

People who bite their nails. I'm sorry if you're reading this and you do it, but I just can't stand it.
