People who write a massive essay as one of their posts on a forum. I'm not going to do more than skim it and it's very rare that they have more to say with their thousand words than most people could express with a paragraph or two.

It's even worse if you read the entire thing and then feel empty afterwards because you just wasted five minutes of your life.
These days if i have to hit the spacebar to read the rest of the post, I pretty much just assume that the author considers tinfoil an essential fashion accessory and move on with my day. Especially OPs.
People who sacrifice clarity for the sake of brevity when they write.
Those are fairly annoying.
People who insert long words simply to sound fancier. They normally don't use the long words correctly either.
And yeah whiner's forum existed for about a week last time until the mods got fed up with it. Also I think so newly modded peeps screwed around with it which resulted in all the threads merging into one or something fucked up like that.
No, its deliberately set up as a temporary spleen-venting forum. Its been run a few times now.
There were always really long threads about what a terrible person I was. They were awesome
I'm an english nazi, so I hate people who don't use correct grammar. Or better yet, when the sentences they say/use just don't make sense.
ex. "I don't like red as a color."
My buddy who I support as much as I can for his approach anxiety and dating/social life, but when the tables are turned I see him flat out laughing when I attempt to talk to a girl.
90% of kids.
The words "very" and "like". I'm in the process of killing these from my vocabulary. It's a difficult task.
People use that cutesy icanhascheezburger.com language.
It's funny, I know this girl who uses that kind of slang ALL THE TIME. I went and visited her house (we're both staying in Portland over the summer) and every other word from her mouth was lolspeak. She's kind of an insecure hipster who gets angry a lot and calls me a lazy bastard, so it was also a very confusing experience. I chalked it up to her just spending too much time by herself over the summer.
I mean, I use a whole lot of slang too, but jeeze man, it was intense.
At least it was a girl using it. Guys doing that shit? GTFO! Portland is cool i go there sometimes.
I also hate when i get a wrong number and i tell them "wrong number" and they say is this 555-56...I always blow up and say LOOK, I SAID YOU GOT THE WRONG NUMBER! I know who i am, damn.
man, they just want to know if they punched in the wrong number or if they wrote down the wrong number.
because if it's the latter, you just guaranteed that they'll call a second time.
I had someone call me as a wrong number (no exaggeration) SIX FUCKING TIMES yesterday.
After the 6th, I called them and very calmly and politely explained that this was NOT, in fact, the number they were looking for.
It was so bizzare.
*ring*
"Hello?"
"Oh sorry, I have the wrong number."
NOW IMAGINE SOMEONE DOING THAT FIVE MORE TIMES IN A ROW!
I guess they must've had the worlds shortest attention span.

Ah yes. THAT is my forum pet peeve: OPs. Specifically the way this forum expects them to me more like minor dissertations that simply thread-starting posts sometimes.
There's a regional practice in San Francisco where if you're on an escalator and you just want to stand, you stand on the right and leave a lane for people to walk on the left.
I'd never encountered this until moving here, and now when people don't do it, it annoys me.
Feral on
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

I don't think that's really regional. It bugs me when people do that on the DC Metro.

I hate people who claim to be English grammar Nazis and complain about people who fail to use proper grammar and spelling, but manage to fail so horribly on those very same fronts in their post where they complain about said people.
In short, I hate hypocrites and morons who think they are smarter than they actually are.

Oh really?
I've never seen it anywhere else.
But I've never been to DC, either. I don't remember people doing it when I visited NYC, but that was years ago.

I always thought that was accepted etiquette everywhere.
There are huge signs in the Secaucus junction train station here in Jersey, for instance, that say "STAND TO THE RIGHT, WALK TO THE LEFT" above escalators.

It's some kind of natural law that any post correcting someone's grammar or spelling will, itself, contain at least one grammatical or spelling error.
1) I have to deal with self absorbed people.
2) Stubbing my toe.
3) My car decides to turn off the cruise control just because it feels like it.
4) My car decides to turn the check engine light on because of the slight elevation change from not being on a bridge, to being on a bridge. (It's the bump that does it)
5) Smokers toss their butts out the car window. I smoked for ten years and this bugged me even then. I understand that not all modern cars come with ashtrays anymore, which is why when I bought a car that didn't include one, I simply bought one to place in the car.
6) People call me to do tech support for them for free.
7) People "race" from red light to red light.
8) I'll keep this short and just say "bad drivers".
9) I drop lightbulbs, especially if it is the new one.
10) Light bulbs fall out of their socket for no apparent reason.
11) I strip wallpaper from our house because old people have bad taste and I want to paint and end up having to do drywall repair because there is a hole in the wall they just covered up with the wallpaper.
12) I wake up about an hour before my alarm is set to go off. That really bugs me for some reason.
13) My cat knocks a whole bunch of stuff off of a table because there is very little friction between the magazines she's walking across and the table on which they are lying.
14) txt speak ends up in business emails I receive from people.
15) I receive a text message.
16) I hit my head on door jams, lights, etc. because the world was designed for short people.
17) I walk into a bathroom and notice I'd have an easier time urinating on top of the urinal than in it, again for the short people.
18) Shows I like get cancelled.
19) No one shows up for band practice without any forewarning, or when they show up late, bunch of slackers.
20) I lose touch with any of the few people I actually do enjoy conversing with.

It's done in a lot of places and countries. Airports, especially, but also when day-to-day commuting. I used to get "coughed" at a lot in Taiwan when I wasn't getting with the program.
Especially irritating when you are on a bicycle. ZOOM they go past you. You pass them up to the front on the right at a red light, then ZOOM they pass you again. And again. And again. Way to go jackass, you just spent $3.00 in fuel and I used up a half a handful of trail mix.

separate
their posts
into little chunks like this
and type one line at a time
as if each sentence merits being isolated.
Just a few more.

Perfect.
This is why I have a weight bench at home and don't bother with a gym.
I don't need to pay a monthly fee to have know-it-alls eyeing me critiquing my workout thankyouverymuch.
