Things that just bug the bejeezus out of you for some reason or no real reason at all. Share them here!

Thought this could be kind of fun plus a place to sort of vent frustrations (in the same vein as the "Rants Far and Wide" thread). It could even be a funny way to get to know each other better.

(Note: I'm putting this here because this is the sub-forum where the Rants thread is and I figured this is on the same wavelength.)

I'll start. I get really annoyed by certain nicknames that random strangers throw at me. I get these a lot at work. Things like "boss" or "big guy" and similar. I don't know why, but they drive me nuts, it's like nails on a chalkboard for me. It just makes me cringe involuntarily.

People who put the milk in before the tea.

It's just all kinds of wrong.

Good choices you two.

Also, I just thought of this, but should we set this up like the rant thread and do "no responding to others' pet peeves"? Or should we allow it to be a discussion/commiseration?

Also also, how the heck can someone put milk in before the tea (or coffee)? :blink:

Passive aggressiveness, even though I realise that to say that is a little passive aggressive!

It won't let me have a blank signature ...

Haha. Nah, not really.

YES! This one just skyrocketed to the top of my list thanks to another supervisor I work with.
