OK, maybe it's stupid, but I absoutely HATE it when people put utensils in the dishwasher handle down (meaning the part that you eat off off is sticking up).

GOOD GAWD it so weirds me out!

1) Sometimes you have to reposition the utensils if the bin starts getting too full and you have to grab at the grimy spoon/fork/knife
2) Why the hell would have you have a knife edge sticking up?
3) When the dishes are clean, grabbing for the part you eat off of? **Shudders**

OK, I'm done now :D

That drives me nuts too. I used to put utensils in the dishwasher handle up and my dad would pull them all out and flip them around handle down. I showed him by not putting any more dishes in the washer, for fear of slicing my hand open. ;)

lol.

i put them in handle first... for some reason i think the business end will get cleaner that way. and i grab them by the business end (lol) when i take them out. it's all good my germ-freak hands are always clean :)

when my wife loads the dishwasher and i put in maybe the last few things to make it a full load, i hit the button and say, "i did the dishes." :D

my pet peeve is when you're talking to someone and they keep saying, "right right right right riiiiiiiiiiight right right right."

i feel like saying... "um, is this a quiz? sweet i just got every answer right."

but... i have a bunch of pet peeves.

I hate it when people breathe heavy on the phone ... and no, it isn't one of those calls :) I call a tech support line for some of our software, the guy I speak to sounds like he's jerking off every time. He must have some sort of asthma, but still.

Plus adults chewing with their mouths open, loud cell-phone talkers, people that are late ... I could go on ....

Not washing hands after they go to the bathroom.
Posting about cars in a tech off topic forum.

I have a pet peeve about people who cannot spell "weird", "utensils" or "dishwasher" correctly.

i always put them in handle down. but, i put knives in down, and sticking through the little holes in the thing, so they dont pop out unexpectedly and cut somebody. i dont really care about "germs" i never get sick, so, why worry?

They drive the same car I'm driving and think they're cool. But they're not.

I hate people who bullsh1t or fluff themselves to make themselves look good infront of others. I have a REALLY bad habit of calling people like that out to their faces in front of others if they're present.

I hate it when people driving are "afraid" of the yellow line, and they break every time a car passes in the opposite direction.

I've done support calls and have accidentally had the microphone from the phone right in the path of my breathing. It's not breathing hard, it's just where you have the phone.

Pet peeves: I hated when my s/o (when I had one) would not put the toothpaste cap back on the tube.

I put them in handle down...The water in the end runs DOWN the utensels not UP. If theres something left in the water the last thing its running down is the handle not the "business" part of it

When you're in a public bathroom people who talk on their cell phones. There should be something that automatically disconnects them when they walk in.

This is just me but I don't like anything touching my hair when it's wet.

I hate people that complain about dirty hands when other people unload the dishwasher. unload it yourself after you wash your own hands!

seriously, when my girly eats a jelly doughnut. She bites a hole into it so that she gets to the jelly, then tears off the sides of the doughnut and dips it in the jelly. The big problem is that I finish my doughnut and she's like 15% through hers, and i get jealous and mad that she still has 85% of hers left, eating it so slowly, and enjoying it in front of me.

That's nothing. It's when they put the blade of a knife up that's troublesome :S
