When certain family members throw their (smelly) socks into the laundry inside out, or worse, bunched up into a tight ball.

When the business owner will not respond to your 'thank you' when leaving the store. Making you feel as if they don't appreciate your business.
I think a business owner should say a short and sweet thank you to customers.

When I help someone, especially anything that takes more than a few minutes, and they reply with “tx”

At least you get that. Some people don’t even thank at all.

Usually the people at checkout, are just low paid cashiers, not the owner.
I agree they should say you’re welcome anyway.

Speaking of which- at a kiddush, when people settle all their 4,5,6,7+ children down, sitting at a table, taking up the whole table. And there is like, 1 other other table for about 50+ adults.

If you refer to flights in guess the overhead bins are for storing hand luggage. What else are they supposed to be there for?

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.

Then you’d have loved what I saw today. One car in a parking lot taking up two HANDICAP spots with no permit at all! I have a permit, waited until the offender came out, it was a frum young woman and I said to her that she was taking up two handicap spots (what chutzpah— she has no permit and not only prevents one handicapped person from parking but two!) and her response was an annoyed sounding ok ok I’m soooooory!

This post doesn’t make me love humanity very much… give people a little grace… none of us is perfect…
My pet peeve once we are showing the intolerant side is ppl who call my husband after 11 at night for school related reasons. Unless the building is on fire it can wait till morning

When you tell a family member something important (ex: I'm going out now, or I'm eating supper in minutes, etc.) And they don't even respond "ok" to acknowledge that they heard you. That really bothers me!
And I don't get bothered by many things.
