Mine are:
*When holding the door open for a woman with a carriage and she doesn't thank you. Punch

*People setting the table with spoons on the left and forks on the right Can't Believe It

*I'll think of more...

Not covering mouth when coughing or sneezing
Not using soap to wash hands after the bathroom (I see grown ladies not using soap!)

Or when public bathrooms don't have soap! (Especially the pediatrician's office Surprised

)

People pushing past you in a supermarket and don’t say excuse me

women parking their shopping carriages smack in middle of supermarket aisle so they can have a conversation and no one can pass

People who use their phone while driving—openly

People who park in handicap spots without a permit

*When searching for a photo on your phone to show someone. Having that person hover over you while you're looking. Nerd

*People who make a big deal about which side the fork or spoon was set. (Sorry, op but that’s a pet peeve of mine. )
*People not thanking properly for any favor anyone did for them.
*People talking without letting the other person get a word in. Also starting to tell a long detailed story without checking if that person has time to hear it now.
* kids or adults saying they’ll do it soon, AKA never.

*not cleaning up after yourself. Meaning as a mom even my kids come and serve their kids let's say breakfast, like when they put the milk back in the fridge. Bowl in the sink....

*when you make up a time to meet someone for them to be punctual.

Regular run of the mill people, fine. I'm referring to people who consider themselves upper class tablesetting aficionados and then I see that.

I hear that. Pet peeves don’t have a right or wrong.

Toilet paper put on “wrong”

Spelling drawer “draw”

Putting pronouns in wrong case (nominative or objective)

Referring to men adulting or parenting as “helping” or “babysitting”

Having my education and profession justify that I can have opinions on significant topics in front of men…it seemed flattering at first and then I realized it’s just insulting.

Referring to house cleaners or janitors as “the non jew” but even less classy than that.

When people openly stare at me, up and down. Kids included.

When people don't follow traffic rules. And then proceed to honk at you.

Cars that take up two spots in a full parking lot. But I do try not to get peeved by too many things because I’m not perfect myself.
