Another pet peeve is when people with automatic trannies act like they have a manual tranny. I have seen several people put their cars into neutral on an incline, rev their car, then pop it back into drive. Or they intermittently tap the throttle to roll back and forth, as if they had a manual tranny.

I have a miserly friend who, in the interests of saving gas, pops his automatic into neutral to roll his car backward out of his driveway. Any gains in gas mileage are negated by the wear and tear on his tranny and the possibility of rolling backward into pedestrians or cars that see no reverse lights on.

 

aHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

what a true miser.

 

installing imagemagick with jpeg,png and mpeg support. grrrrrrrr

 

i guess that's more like a core hatred than a pet peeve. a pet peeve would be more like alex. asshole!

 

Another pet peeve: when people forward chain letter emails to all their friends without thinking or realizing that it is a hoax, a pyramid scheme, or an urban legend. That's just digital waste and a waste of my time.

 

Using "prolly" instead of "probably". Where the hell did that come from?

 

prolly from the same people who invented "aight" instead of alright??

 

Another pet peeve is when people leave boogers on the wall above the urinal in public restrooms. That is so gross. I usually look ahead at the wall when I'm at the urinal, and the sight of boogers clinging to the wall right in front of my eyes is downright nasty.

 

 

I also hate when I hit the "close window" button on my new mouse.
