*Little* Things That Annoy You (Pet Peeves)

Astroganga said:
I'm plus sized so most tops have either too big armholes or huge sleeves, because they think all women my size have massive arms. In reality I don't know any women my size with arms that big.

I hate most plus size clothing period
They think plus size women are ugly and should wear sacks.
So wrong to treat a certain size that happens to be bigger like it is ugly and cannot dress pretty

I suppose intrusive sounds while at home would be at the top of the list. Annoyances, but most of the time not something that can put me into a "fight or flight" mode.

Though something new is rapidly gaining steam in this respect. That my ISP is having more frequent outages based on very local issues. Every time I see the lights go out on my Internet phone modem it becomes increasingly irritating.

With my ISP dutifully reporting outages through e-mail, which I can't access until they fix whatever caused the outage in the first place. :rolleyes:

Yep, our energy company wants us to go online to report our power is out
(Sigh with eye roll)
 
People who don't have all buttons done up on a polo shirt. I know most people can relate to not having all buttons done up, but for some reason I get a touch of OCD in this matter. I don't wear polo shirts myself, haven't since I wore school uniform (and if I remember correctly, always had all 3 buttons done up).

Related to this, I was really frustrated as a kid to learn that you are never supposed to button the top button of a shirt. It never made sense to me. Why have the button if you can't actually use it? A friend of mine suggested a reason which makes a surprising amount of sense.

This thread is turning into a place where I have evidence that I am annoying to many people. I thought we were talking more about things and experiences that annoy us more than people that annoy us.

I officially declare myself as annoying. I guess now I’m free to carry-on.

"Don't judge a person by what they say, judge them by what they do."

People often tell me I'm annoying but they keep coming back for more. :)

Some people just like to be annoyed.

I'm guilty of many things listed in this thread too. But it's best to not take it to heart. I think all humans annoy each other.
 
Sales people that try to tell me what I want. Especially when it comes to clothes.

[Edit] I get some funny looks when clothes shopping because I shop by feel. I brush everything with my finger tips and if it feels too nylon and staticky I snatch my hand back like it's been bitten.

Same here, plus our internet provider wants us to go online to report that the internet does not work. :rolleyes:

Can't you use your phone in those instances? I mean internet on the phone, not making phone calls. I hate that though, I much prefer a big screen and a real keyboard.
 
Background "music" that is scientifically selected to reduce boredom during a speech. Also, background music designed to manipulate the emotions as one gets information. Beyond that, I don't like the introductions and titles on video clips. I've already decided I want to see it before the self-advert and introduction. Then, there is usually a long, irrelevant introduction. The content is often repeated three different ways, driving me batty as I pay close attention and get nothing new. Finally, it often turns out that the title was a tricky emphasis on a minor detail, not the main story, and the title picture was not even relevant.
