My wife is always bugging me cause I complain about the dumbest things.

Like, people who feel it's necessary to pause first and then emphasize the word "billion"
"last year it cost 300 ..........BILLION dollars" aaaaargh!!! Just say the damn word.

People who say the word "Jewlery" instead of 'Jewelery'

People who think it's really cool to yell "yeah baby!!" before every time they do something

People who constantly say "did you get that on camera?" when you're recording them on video.
Like, yeah I got you saying "did you get that on camera" too ya dumb #%$ and now you've ruined the take.

Maybe I'm just getting sick of my wife.
Hey you kids! Get outta that Jello tree!! :mad:

I hate it when you post the answer to some ones question and they obviously haven't bothered to read it and continue asking the same question !

I hate it when people ask you a question when the answer is obvious. Like people at work always ask me when they see me, "are you working today?". Or when your watching a really good movie and someone asks you, "did you see that?". PEOPLE!!! ARGH!!!! :rolleyes:

I hate when people ask the questions like, Are you guys playing guitar?, when you are sitting right there playing.

..or the classic question
"how long have you been playing?"
I usually look at my watch and say "..about 5 minutes.. why?"

Or when your playing a [gibson] guitar, and someone asks you is that a [gibson]? I usually answer no that's just my name. I put it on the guitar so no one would steal it. Matter of fact every guitar that says [gibson] on it is mine, so don't touch them.

Drives me up the wall when people abbreviate everything, such as too = 2, forgot = 4got, some = sum, or before = be4.......makes me think they are ignorent. Also the new lingo, or rather spellings (Kewl, Phat, etc....) and the ultimate pet peeve "cool beans".....when I hear that, my day is ruined....

I can not stand to hear someone brushing there teeth. Doesn't bother me to hear myself brush mine, I just can't take hearing someone else.

Howling dogs cut through me everytime.

The guy on the interstate that pulls over in the left lane in front of you, then gets up beside the car he passing and slows down to the same speed as the guy he was just passing.

My biggest pet peeve: rap music........

Any how, I can't just repeat/I have smelly fungus-covered feet/let me put my sword in it's sheath/cuz it's time for me to go brush mah teeth! (swiiglle chchchchhch swargle spit)

My pet peeve is people who pick on the spelling of people who complain about bad spelling.
... and that's all I have to say about that.

My pet peeve is when people ask me my middle name when it's quite obvious what the answer is.

My other pet peeve is when people pronounce chi-square as CHI when it's actually KYE (phonetically)!

Ignorant. Thanks for correcting that spelling.......

Finger_cruncher, you reminded me of another one of my pet peeves, when someone calls a pecan a pecon....(It's pee-can, not Pee-con)
