I have a question

what is your biggest pet peev?

We all have those things that really bother us, and yet somehow we gotta deal with them. So what are yours?

My biggest one, at the moment, is this;

Late responses. Not normal late responses, though. Late responses like say I text my friend and they don't answer. Let's say it's been about two hours. So then I get a text from another friend, saying, "Hey, look what *insert first friend's name* just sent me!"  This, or something like this, happens to me ALL THE TIME.

heh. So yeah! Post pet peevs here :)

when people say their art or music or talent or whatever is bad in order to compliment someone else's

I strongly dislike the sound of fingers rubbing carpet.

I also normally dislike people who polish their white shoes. Sorry if this is you, anyone, you might be an exception

Same with the polishing white shoes thing! But for me, it's putting any shoes in the washing machine (sorry if any of you do this!) To me and my acting teacher, this defeats the purpose of shoes. Heh.

@Red Starlight, I think the EXACT. SAME. THING 'bout the shoes in a washin' machine!

In one episode of The Monkees, called "The Monkees Dig Out More Dirt", in the beginnin', Mike (Yes, Mike. Why, no-one knows) PUTS HIS SHOES IN THE WASHIN' MACHIENE!!!!!! I was, like, "Why would you even DO that?!?! WHY?!?!". Then, later, he pulls his shoe off, AND HE DIDN'T WAIT FOR IT TO DRY, and he holds it upside down, and water comes outta it!

Movie directors who ruin the movie by not following the book.

e.g. Artemis Fowl, The Hobbit, Enola Holmes, The Seventh Son, The Lightning Thief

 

LotR and Harry Potter were actually decent.

When people try to talk to me right after I've climbed the three very tall flights of stairs that it takes me to get up to my floor at my school.

Oooh my CAPTCHA says "buyec". Buy eco? Buy economic? Buy electric cars? Certainly buy something . . .

When people look at the things I make and say "I could never do that". Y'know... you COULD. Like, I would be very happy to maybe TEACH YOU, or something crazy like that...

YES EXACTLY.  It's like they're trying to make me feel guilty.

Agreed. I'm usually not a fan of complements in general, especially when they're phrased in a self-depreciating way. I never know what to say in return.

I have one that is extra annoying because I have hair short enough for this to happen super often: When I am wearing headphones and my hair is, kinda, in front? I don't know how to explain it. It's like when your hair falls out from behind your headphones. That's the best explanation I have.
