One thing that makes me want to scream and throw things is when websites or YouTube videos will not freakin load!

Slow loading computers that time out/glitch, or when my internet spontaneously disconnects itself.

When people don't wring out a kitchen sponge/cloth and put it up, but abandon it sopping wet in the sink to grow smelly :eew:

Unwarranted laziness. My mother and grandmother are always calling on me to do this and do that when they're both capable of doing things themselves. My mother just called me to see if I'd go pick her up something to eat. She could seriously get in her own damn car and go to get a drive-thru burger somewhere. My grandmother simply refuses to pump her own petrol so I have to go do it for her. Sometimes I'm okay with that if I'm out and about, but I don't want to have to leave my comfort zone just so someone else doesn't have to.

I hate being constantly interrupted, knowing that I can't yell at the person without causing a hostile vibe for the rest of the day. My mother loves to call me like 12 times in a row, and her timing is always impeccable.

I also hate being rushed. Don't pester me to hurry up when there's no sense in it or I'll WILL yell at you. :evil:

Oh man those are huge ones of mine too. Falls under my general 'inconsiderate behavior'
Groups of people who stop to talk in the middle of the hallway so no one can get by! Just.. move like 1 ft to the side or something! Come on it's not that hard.

People are either completely oblivious or just plain self-centered.

I hate it when people send me IMs with just a "yo" or ask me the same "what's up" question every day. Just start talking about whatever is on your mind, and I'll respond. I don't leave my AIM or Yahoo on when I'm not at home. So if you see me on, then I'm on. Just don't say "yo", and ask me an actual question, because every time you ask "what's up" I'm going to tell you the same thing: nothing.

Yeah that is morally unjust and a dishonourable thing to do.

I would say one of my pet peeves is loud noises.

Grocery customers who stop just inside the entrance, thus blocking the way into the store.

Bullies

People who use wrong (scientific) facts in speech even if the right ones perfectly suffice

People who speak/write like a moron.

People who constantly annoy me wanting to know things they should be able to figure out themselves.

People who use others.

Obvious design (see Mac OS X)

unreadably small text

People who insist on using unreadably small text in PDFs so that to read it you have to scroll horizontally.
