Post a non-earth-shattering thing you hate
Me: people who use the spoon from the sugar bowl to stir the coffee then shove it back into the sugar. Bleh. :mad:

I've even been known to triple or quadruple dip on occassions.

5. Wow
So many things to choose from.

I guess one that I hate is when they end up spending an inordinate amount of time chewing a single bite of food. It then takes them 10 times longer to finish a meal than everyone else at the table.

6. That one guy whose voice-overs are heard all the time
on TV for dramatic movies and horror stuff. The way he drops his voice at the end of every sentence to a deep growl just bugs the living eff out of me.

...when I bite down on a piece of gristle or whatever the hell it is in chicken salad sometimes.x(

My mother could NEVER make chicken salad without getting that crap in there. I used to approach a chicken salad sandwich with much trepidation.

9. When people don't show the ol manners...
Its not a big deal to most, but DakotaDem Jr. gets a slappy daddy when he asks for something at the dinner table without a "please" and "thank you"...which isn't that often.

Now I have to find a way to get Mrs. DakotaDem to follow suit. Some days she avoids manners like neocons avoid the truth.

12. People who litter
That irritates me more than just about anything. I've leaped out in front of vehicles and made the occupant get out and pick up the cigarette wrapper or paper cup they just threw out the window (dangerous behavior, I know, but sometimes I just can't help myself).

19. Long, meaningless instrumental intros...
...to otherwise great songs. I've been known to chop an entire minute or two off a file to trim it to the good parts. I'm just not big on instrumental music.

Closely related: a segment of spoken/recited words in the middle of a song. Argh!! If I wanted a poetry reading, I'd go find a poetry reading. If I want to listen to music, I want to hear singing. And it's a lot harder to smoothly chop a spoken section out of the middle of a song, than it is to chop a boring instrumental section off the beginning or end of a file.
