It all has to do with other drivers. I can't stand the way some people drive:

- no signaling
- no idea someone's waiting on them
- they think it's ok to block traffic just because they missed a turn
- headlights too high / brights are on
- changing into my lane at the last second at a red light because their lane had a car ahead of them
- too slow in the passing lane
- cars changing lanes into the right lane when they know / see cars are about to come out of a side street
- cars that use shoulder lanes / exit or entrance ramps to get ahead of traffic
- aggressive drivers who SUCK at aggressive driving (like having to use brakes after they change lanes, and again)
- people who think the horn is used for cussing people out
- people who are content after parking on the line
- merging cars who must get ahead of you instead of the infinite free space behind you
- people who don't stop enough [to at least break momentum] at stop signs
- people who are TOO courteous at stop signs and cause mass confusion/indecision.

I agree with your entire list, I bolded the ones that drive me batty...

I hate it when people chew gum loudly enough for me to hear it or when people eat loudly.

My biggest pet peeve ever. And I work in a quiet office where the people around me eat like this for lunch almost daily. Thank god for noise-cancelling headphones.

Not to mention going to college and having to watch all these people chew gum with their mouth open like they're trying to be attractive--it does more to prove their stupidity.
 
Jackasses that pull a full carlength PAST the stop line in the left turn lane and instead of going when the light turns yellow they fvcking BACK UP! That is the dumbest damn thing. Makes me want to get out and rough them up with my nightstick. :|

Wrong. Attention whores and usually easy.
Depends what you're looking for in a girl I guess.
 
Waiting for 30 mins for a bus in the dead of winter, bus is packed & leaves while the rear is almost vacant! Argh! :| 99% of the time it's kids.

People who take up 2-3 seats on bus/train with their bags/groceries/feet, while there's a 75 year old lady standing up hanging on for dear life :| Same 99% of the time kids.

Recently, Christmas shoppers, everyone is starting to get pushy & iratating.

People who ask you to repeat what you said more than 2 times, my wife does this & it drives me crazy for some reason.

 
Bad drivers.
People who don't move all the way into the subway/bus.
People who start standing up from their seats on a crowded bus WAY before their stop and expect you to get out of their way if you're standing in front of them. Wait for the FRICKING bus to stop. Same with people who are in a huge rush to stand up and get all their carryons out on a plane. Basically anyone who wants to "hurry up and wait."
People who walk side by side at a slow pace on a crowded sidewalk, or stop or turn around suddenly or wander all over the sidewalk.
Tourists in general.

You know...typical New Yorker stuff.

Do you have the similar experience when you tell someone for example: " Well I went to Fry's and picked up a new dvd burner it costed me a pretty penny". and your friend says "im sorry say that again". and so you start "Well I went to frys..." then they suddenly remember what you said! "Oh yeah dvd burners are expensive!"

(fry's is just an example, and the price of dvd burners is subjective)

This drives me crazy. My GF does it all the time. she heard me correctly the first time, but why the heck do i have to repeat it?

Because you're boring her and she wasn't paying attention. 😛
