Eat things from the grocery store and do not pay for it. Saying something to your child and when you look up the next person in line is staring at you, like darn I thought I was talking low enough. Then they smile like it is okay for them to be eaves dropping. Coughing without covering they mouth which is why I try to stand a distance from people and when in line I try to make sure not to get to close to people. In line at grocery store and the person behind you stands to close to you, I put my basket behind me while putting grocery on the conveyor. Whites who grab their purse when you walk by like your gonna rob them, so I just grab my purse also. Silly folks.

I absolutely hate it when they don't control their children. They let them run around wild or mess with things.
Walking behind someone on their cellphone who just stops, makes you almost run into them.

[Do something when they don't want to, when you didn't ask them to, so they can have a reason to be mad at you.

I get irked when people stand around gawking at people like they are in a spectator's sport.  I think that people could find something better to do with their time.  People laugh at anything but I do not find everything is funny.  Have some sympathy for God's sake!!! :)

Being a private person, I find it annoying when somebody is talking loud on their cell phone in public.

Let's see:
When people crowd you. Always makes me uncomfortable.
When people block the aisles or don't try to move when they see you coming.
When you hold the door for someone and they say nothing.
When people leave their carts randomly in the lot.

Great thread!! 

Another one I thought of is when I'm out driving somewhere, and someone just has to cut me off and then they go slow?  I mean, what was their hurry to begin with?? They could have waited for me to go by, especially when there was no one in back of me.

Oh this is a really good topic, very interesting. Although I could go on and on with all of the pet peeves I have that people do I will limit my answer. Besides the staring thing as I just usually stare back, lol. I can't stand it when someone throws a piece of garbage on the floor or their gum when just a few feet away there's a garbage can. Just as I see so many people throw their butts on the ground when they could walk the 3 steps to the ashtray that is provided. It really is lazy, inconsiderate and it does really bother me. Everyone should care enough about the planet they live on to pick up after themselves but they don't!

talking loudly, texting/talking while driving or walking and not paying attention to surroundings. Smacking, slurping coffee, soup, etc. allowing their kids to act up. throwing trash on the ground.

I'm annoyed when I'm out in public and I experience people making their own rules so they won't have to wait in line, hold their place in line, etc.  It's people thinking that they're better than everyone else so they're entitled to special treatment. 

I'd like to see them have enough respect for others that they cooperate with the rules that apply to EVERYONE.

:heart:
Have a great day!

One of my biggest pet annoyances is people who walk their dogs and have them go on the grass along sidewalks where people
are going to step onto when they get out of their cars if they park along the sidewalk.  The problem is that they rarely every pick up the droppings
and then I or someone else while getting out of their car, especially at night cannot see the droppings and step right on the droppings.
This has happened me to a fair number of times and mostly at night.  I also hate it when you are trying to park in a spot.  You have your blinker on to announce that spot is yours
and someone going the wrong way beats you to that space backing up. I have many more, probably too many to discuss in one sitting.
