When you’re in a crowded place, and a person decides to stop in the middle of a busy corridor,in order to take her phone out and start texting someone. Not only did she do that,she didn’t carry on walking as she texted,she just stood there,oblivious to anyone around her. 

The worst part about it? This happened in a hospital,by the A&E department. Oh,and outside the hospital,people were smoking (including nurses),in front of a giant sign (and I mean giant) that read PLEASE REFRAIN FROM SMOKING. I pointed this out to a nurse,and she replied “sorry,I didn’t see the sign”. I just laughed

They are very nice and Barrettish, @Beatlebug! Interestingly enough, though, I was thinking of Jimmy when I bought them. I had originally planned to get a pink pair like his, however they had none, and I found those instead. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

Another pet peeve for the sake of not totally derailing:

Overly loud and talkative people. It’s ok to speak and take part in a conversation and all, but some people apparently don’t know/care that there’s a point where you should probably stop talking out of your arse. blue-meanie

Specific YouTube-comment-related peeve. On videos by female musicians, one sees the following:

90% of comments: Ur so hot/marry me
7% of comments: Good job with the cover
3% of comments: technical musical aspects

Why does one not see these ratios on videos by male musicians? ahdn_george_01

I am 12 years old and I listen to REAL music. Thumbs up if you agree! 

 

And someone is inevitably going to do the witty reply of “I’m a foetus and I listen to REAL music”.

The fact that whenever I go to a place lately, the thing I want isn’t available. I go to a place for food, the ovens are down cause of a fire. I go get a game repaired, the repair machine is out.

When I see three programs I want to go to during one time slot at a conference, but nothing that interests me during another time slot.

Oh, well, the frustration is lessened because I actually get to go to the conference. Then DISNEYWORLD after the conference.

I hate jumbo/medium jumbo fret wire.  It feels so clunky and gross to me.  I am spoiled, and I now only want vintage or narrow frets, the taller the better.a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Visitors to people’s houses who insist on parking on the pavement instead of in the (empty) path of the person they’re visiting. This happened earlier at the house opposite mine (I live on a main road),and a young woman with 2 kids (one in a pram/stroller) had to walk into the road to get past the car. Annoys me

There is a special place in hell for people who leave their bag on the outside seat when there’s no other place on the bus. I make it my aim to go over, push their bags into their hands and sit down.

People who shout/raise their voices on the bus to have conversations – especially when not sitting near each other. I’m not sure of bus etiquette so maybe it looks rude and downright impolite but I’m not yelling across a bus to let someone know I recognise their existence. 

Tho ever since I moved house I have come to hate getting the bus and would rather get a train.
