Pet Peeves
What makes you angry? Get it off your chest so we can laugh at your impotent rage.

Where do I stop
I'm easily annoyed:
People using American spelling when they're British. There is no excuse, the language is called English for a reason, if you wanted to use the corrupt watered-down version, move to the US. This especially pisses me off with the word licence - "licence" is a noun, "license" is a verb; how difficult is this to understand?
Old people in powerful cars. This seems to be a modern trend, the Freds (as my dad used to call them) have moved on from 15 year old cars with a whippet in the passenger seat to spanky new performance cars, but still drive them the exact same way. I'm sure they get the accelerator tuned down deliberately; my car cannot even accelerate that slowly.
People hogging the outside lanes. It's quite simple, you occupy lane 1 whenever its free. lane 2, 3 and 4 are for overtaking *only*. I don't care whether you're turning right in 12 miles time, change lanes nearer the point.
Slow walking people. If you must walk at a speed that makes a snail look quick, walk at the side of the pavement. Down walk slap bang in the middle and then complain when people try and get past you.
In supermarkets, people who insist on leaving their trolleys in the middle of the aisle whilst waiting for their 2 braincells to decided which flavour of low-fat yoghurt is best for them.
People who come round to my desk at work. Send a frigging email: it's quicker for you, quicker for me and I have more chance to focus my full attention on the subject. Some people, like me, understand things better visually than verbally.
People who interupt me whilst eating. I really don't want somebody trying to distract me from my important tasks of providing vital calories and catching up with Internet sites.
Apple fan boys, especially when they misquote Fitt's law to support their badly designed, ugly, designed for morons, yoghurt drinking operating system. If you're a pretentious, soulless, moron with more desire to (bad) style over substance then buy a Mac; don't then dribble on about how much better it is - you're wrong and you're stupid and you're ugly.

supermarket trolleys in aisles
when they are busy foraging further down the aisle, take random things from their trolley and add a few things in, but hidden.
