Parents who have their children out late at night, like at a store or restaurant, and fuss or yell at the child for being fussy. TAKE THE CHILD HOME AND LET THEM SLEEP!!

I'd agree, but I'd have to say parents (those that can't control their children, that is) and their bratty children annoy me in general.

Annoyingly Progressive Since 2006
People in general. If it weren't for all the annoying people getting in my way, I'd probably have a much better ministry...
OK...it's tongue-in-cheek, but most of our annyoances do come from the actions of other people. I didn't hear too much in here about the weather, or those pesky animals and insects, or those mountains that we have to cross to get to such-and-such a place.
It's those annoying sunsets. All I want to do is sit here sulking and enjoy my margarita, and the sun has to set and be pretty.

lol, ever since i was a child, my dad always said you "stay up as late as you want but the FIRST TIME i hear you complain about being tired, you have a bed time"
I know that won't work for all kids but damn, i learned quickly that you can't stay up till 3 and get up at 6 for school!

I'm Heffer!!!
Bad customer care; its pretty much non existant here in England!
People who think its cool to spit, anywhere and everywhere; i mean, get a tissue for crying out loud!!
My sister (He!he!he!he!)
My cat that cant make up his mind if he wants to go out or stay in ( i dont have a cat flap)
People doing surveys that step infront of you when youre rushing to work.
People who push in when getting the bus.
Thats enough for now, i reckon.

Good grief! I agree with this one too. But, I have to add my husband to the list though because he does this....and that horrrrrrrrid noise they make before the actual spitting almost sends me to the porcelain god for a visit. Fortunately, my wonderful sweetie doesn't do much else that annoys me. He does seem to receive a sense of wicked fun when I get grossed out however so now I try to ignore him when he spits. *shudder* Why can't men continue to act like they did when you were dating?Stimpleton said:

My pet peeves? Hmmmm.
- Pharmecutical ads that drum the name of a drug into your brain and TELL you to ASK you doctor if it is suitable for YOU. The manufacturers DO NOT tell you what the drug is FOR. (Am I missing something there? To my thinking, that is just SO wrong.)
- The idea that one can take a little pill to "get over" whatever ails them, without examining the underlying causes of those ailments. It's like no one is even remotely responsible for their physical condition and well being. *sigh* Like, don't eat GOOD food, eat all the junk you want -- there is always antacids et al. Come on. If you fill your gastank with garbage -- yer car ain't gonna run too well... bottom line.
- Fashion... or what passes as fashion. Teenage boys -- who stumble about with their waistline around their knees. How on earth do they think this even approaches "looking cool". (A friends son was arrested for theft several times because he could not effectively make a run for it. Heck, I once told him, "Son, if you are gonna be a theif, then wear a fricken belt. DUH!" Definitely not the brightest crayon in the pack.)
Teenage girls who are overweight, a lot, and still insist on dressing like JLo, with their expansive gut rollllllllllling over the top of their pants and their top 4 inches too short to cover it. Do they realize how incredibly revolting they look? Apparently not.
- Telephone solicitors who tell me I have just won something... *sigh*
- Telephone solicitors who cannot speak English or those who call asking for a donation and yet you cannot fathom most of what they are saying.
Like Djamila and many others...
- People who let their children scream bloody murder in public. The things I see when I am not carrying a roll of duct tape. And yes, although they are sometimes delightful, their little dear parents often display the intelligence of a three day old piece of lettuce. What are they thinking? Are they thinking at all?
ahhh well, that's enough hehe.

Bosnjakinja
Municipal workers who push snow off the main streets onto the sides, instead of piling it into dump trucks as is required by law. In Sarajevo, remember, there are no driveways and very few sidewalks outside the main downtown area. You open your front door, and step out onto the street. So this means they push the snow against your house, burying your car, and whatever else.
Bosnians who live in the United States or other Western countries and work at McDonald's or the GAP for 6 months of the year and then come back to Bosnia, convert their low wages into Bosnian marks, and live like Kings.
Old men who think it's funny to flirt. "Don't you know smoking is bad for you? You're a bad girl... come give us a kiss!" - "Hey, I've got a better idea. How about I tie you down, put my cigarette out in your ***, and kiss your tomb after I've buried you alive you pervert?"
Mothers who let their kids do whatever they want, as others have mentioned, with fake warnings. "Fine, go play in the fields! But when you blow your legs off a landmine, don't come crawling back to me on your bloody stumps!"
The stupid telephone interviews the United Nations, Americans, and EUFOR soldiers in Bosnia conduct. "Do you have any weapons stored in your home?", etc.
Conducting business in Bosnia. "I'm sorry, Miss, but in order to add a new window to the front of your business you first need to apply for a permit from the Heritage Protector Agency of the Department of Architecture. Then you take that permit and apply to the Department of Industry and Trade for a permit to carry out the permit issued by the Department of Architecture. Then you submit both permits with a formal request to the Minister of the Interior. Make sure you register his approval with the District of Centar, the City of Sarajevo, and Sarajevo County. They will register the necessary paperwork with the Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and with the Government of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina will issue your final permit in 4-6 weeks after receiving the request from the Federation-level government. You then can take this permit to an approved Heritage Zone Contractor, which will then go through a similar process to ensure they are permitted to carry out the necessary work."

Wow.
This could really turn a guy on if he were a pervert.
I can hear him say... "Really?! You'd do that for me?!"
"When do we start?"
