Other drivers who are completely incapable of following any rules of the road. Don't cut me up to overtake something and then drive slower than the car you're trying to overtake. Look at those giant arrows on the road, they're telling you where to go. I'm sure some of the people who drive must just find their licences in cereal boxes or something.

People who park in a disabled space who aren't disabled.

Cashiers who, just because I'm in a wheelchair, automatically talk to whoever I'm with, hand my change over to them etc. Excuse me, I'm still here! My bf will just usually point blank ignore them until they look/talk to me.

People who are completely unable to pick up after themselves, it's not that hard to put the dirty clothes in the laundry basket, or to put your rubbish in the bin. It's just good manners.

People who quiz me about my health and money etc just to be nosy. I don't mind a normal level of interest but sometimes it's just far too much. I've only just met you, I do not want to discuss my complete medical history from birth until now with you and you have no need or right to know.

People who moan about the NHS. It's not perfect, I know that, and of course there are problems. If you don't like it then talk to someone, change doctors, discuss what's going wrong, hell you can even go private, just shut-up going on about how awful it is, it's doing the best it can.

People who stand in town centres preaching with leaflets about how the apocalypse is coming, probably tomorrow. It's your view and you're entitled to it, but please don't force it on me, especially when you're a sweet looking old man and I feel guilty about ignoring you.

I'm such a grump though so this list could be lots longer.

This is going to sound completely ridiculous, but couches on front porches are my biggest pet peeve.

My pet peeve this week: Women who take their boyfriends CLOTHES SHOPPING!!

Seriously! All the guys do is stand about looking sorry for themselves, whilst getting in my way!

Women's clothes shops are small enough as it is... without a pack of 6 foot guys stood around with nothing better to do,
than say "That's nice!" when their stupid girlfriend asks them their opinion on some chavtastic top she's spied. Ahhhhh!!!!
Leave your fellas at home ladies! ;D;D

Oh, I soooooooo agree with this one. I always feel split between feeling sorry for the guy and thinking he must be a bit pathetic to agree to it in the first place! Like surely only girls with no friends force their boyfriends to go shopping with them? And even then, what's wrong with going by yourself?

Sorry, have to disagree with you here. I have absolutely no taste when it comes to clothes and I hate shopping. My husband loves to shop and pick out outfits for me (I used to joke that he was my wife). So I do take him with me because he helps it go much faster: I hang out in the dressing room trying on whatever he brings to me.

I take my boyfriend clothes shopping - but clothes shopping for HIM. He actually prefers it when I go with him to buy clothes, because he wants my help/opinion on what looks good. xD

lol. I agree with you on this, with one exception that doesn't really count, seeing as how it's my own personal deal. haha.

MY guy would rather go clothes shopping than me. He's weird, I know.

1. Pregnant women who smoke ciggarettes and weed during their pregnancies.
2. People who do not use turn signals and/or stop at stop signs.
3. Smoking in general is disgusting. I can't stand the stench.
4. I am overweight, but I cannot stand it when men and women where shirts and they are too short for their sagging guts. lol. I don't want to see my fat tummy much less anyone else's.
5. Kids over the age of 1 with a pacifier or bottle.
6. Kids out in public without shoes.
7. I hate when people say expecially instead of especially.
8. I don't like when people spell basic words wrong like "maternity" and they put maturnity.
9. I hate when people are quick to point out your mistakes but never admit to their own.

I see this a lot in the mall...it's incredibly disturbing. Especially when they're totally barefoot and stomping around out of their parents' reach.

8. I don't like when people spell basic words wrong like "maternity" and they put maturnity.
It's a huuuuuuuge turn-off - getting messages from someone and they go and spell some really simple words wrong. Not just once, either. All. The. Time. :/

Guilty. I read an article about eight years ago which stated that adults who went around barefoot as children have much healthier feet. I now let my son go outside without shoes from spring until fall. He only wears shoes when we're going to someone's house or to an indoor public place (a store or other place of business.)

See, that's fine. But when you're outside in public, or even at a mall, you don't know what's on the ground/floor. Most stores are well kept, since they're small areas, but a mall's main halls can get extremely dirty.

Adding on to your number 8, when people refuse to say that they are pregnant. No, they're preggo, preggers, preggie.... OH MY GOD, NO. You are PREGNANT. Even worse, when they misspell pregnant. I know mistakes and typos are made, I'm talking about a constant here.

What about "we're pregnant"? Jeez, that drives me insane. No, the woman is pregnant. Not the couple, not the family, the WOMAN. It's fine to say "we're going to have a baby", but saying that "we're pregnant" just irritates me. Pregnancy is something that (at least in the human race) only happens to females.
Every time I hear a man say "we're pregnant", I want to hit him in the face with a human anatomy book.

OMG I thought I was the only one.

I want to slap women whenever I hear them say they're preggers or preggo. You're pregnant. End of story. Nothing cute about it, in my opinion.
