Magazine renewals that tell me I get the "preferred subscriber rate" which is actually more expensive than regular or new subscrption cost at that magazine's own website. Since I'm a "preferred" customer, you charge me more?!

People that end their words with a 'z' when it should be an 's'. AOL-coolness went out 5 years ago.

ricers.
jocks. (well, not ALL of them, but the ones that fit the stereotype)
people who fly past a line of cars and expect you to let them in.
people who flip you off when THEY do something moronic
people who honk at you when they try to cut you off or run a red or something.
people who pass on exit lanes.
ricers.
SUV's with no mud or extra passengers in them. If they have a trailer hitch, im more OK with it.
whale vagina mufflers.
people who ask my help in math/physics but don't listen to my explanation and only want the answer.
people who don't love Strong Bad
soccermoms who act like every person on the road should yeild to their GMC Titanics.
People who follow the car in front of them through stop signs . . . and therefore cut in front of everyone.
people who yeild to everyone at stop signs.
people who pull out directly in front of my, forcing me to slam brakes.
old people who drive 5 mph under the limit in 30 mph zones.
people who blare (c)rap really loud.
people who take up more than one parking spot. time for the key, huh?
people who are rich/soccermoms who think that they are more important than you.
people who treat others like dirt.

that sorta thing. crap. Thats a long list. I thought of another: anyone who say "lag" after being killed in Il-2: FB.

I'm sure it happens elsewhere, but that happens to be my only online fix at the moment.

And why do you prefer spelling it with a 'z' than a normal 's'? It's because you think it's cool.

Do we have nothing to do but to debate the use of z and s.

Didn't you ask what our pet peeves were? That's mine.

God I hate those

Anyways, mine is the wave that you get right after someone does something stupid while driving. You can run me off the road if you like, so long as you do the wave afterwards. :p

That's close to the top of my list, along with people with 2 or 3 carryons that fill up the bins so there is no room left for my one.

Men who don't know what a urinal is for and can't lift the seat before they let loose. Your aim ain't that good.
People who don't realize that there is a cargo hold for their bags on an airplane. If it crashes it won't make a difference, everything is gonna be spread all over the place.
People who wanna axe a question. Just how do you cut up a question anyway? I can't help you with that.
