Reply #14: I have a few pet peeves [View All]

[MikeH]

People who drive with one arm out the window, or otherwise don't use both hands to steer, most particularly when making a turn or driving in tight traffic.

A person not using one's turn signal, particularly when making a left turn or any turn across the path of traffic, or changing lanes and coming close in front of me. Across the path of traffic includes pedestrian traffic.

This is a big one: someone talking on a cell phone while in a restroom. :evilgrin: Damn it, I don't like the sounds of my doing my thing in the restroom to be picked up on someone's cell phone. And I would think other people feel the same way. And neither do I like hearing bathroom sounds on the other end of a phone conversation.

I am not certain why this bothers me, and if it is just me, or other people are bothered by it too. I dislike it when someone does not close the door when going into a stall in a restroom.

Someone not flushing a toilet.

And someone not washing one's hands after using the restroom. Basic sanitation.

Someone ringing my doorbell and asking me to help them win some contest by buying some stuff I don't want, as if I would personally care at all about whatever contest they are trying to win.
