What are your pet peeves?
Mine is certain pronunciation of words like ivent-tory in place of in-ven-tory and the one i hate the most a-lumin-num instead of Al-u-min-um.
Also burping in peoples faces is disgusting.

My rabbit may be the snootiest thing alive. Always getting angry at everyone else unless she's hungry or wants attention.
My other pets don't peeve me much though.
People who leave their front/back door open, especially when you're in a place that has a lot of flying insects.
People who play their music out load, then look at you like you're the one with a problem.
People who feel the need to sing along to every song they hear.
Seeing fly's crawling on animals.
Loud unnecessary laughter.
One pet peeve I have is when artists draw a person's hair over their eyebrows, but you can see the eyebrows through the hair. One example from an egoraptor animation:
Also, a KYM pet peeve I have is when people post fanart, but instead of sourcing it, they just copy-and paste the URL into the notes. for example doing this:
Source: http://www.deviantart.com/art/Play-436704578
Instead of linking it like this:
Source
Dunno why, but it's always annoyed me for some reason
People naming their pet “Peeve”.
Getting shot in the chest.
cut scenes and text-heavy moments that you can't skip in videogames.
Jokes about mentally retarded people always rub me the wrong way. I actually have mild autism so that's one good reason. I know a few people who have mental disabilities who don't fit into the stereotypes people on the web give them.
When people leave the stall doors in public restrooms open while they're using it. It's like they're asking people to walk in on them.

I'd post my pet peeves but xTSGx just posted a link to TV Tropes. Now I'll be over there for the next 6 hours.
Maybe that's my pet peeve too. And the Dutch.
Advertisers using bits of dialog clipped out of movies, shows or some collection of a specific genre as responses to rhetorical questions delivered by narrator or implied by imagery during the course of an advertisement for the same movies, shows or collections of movies or shows. I find it hideously repugnant.
Being new to a community/forum and afraid to post in the forums.
Advertisers who try to be hip by using "memes" (aka forced advice animals)
It's pronounced Por-sche, not Porsh, the E is not silence!
when someone says that something is 'trivial'.
also glossy (touch)screens, like, srsly who the fuck thought that'd be a good idea?
Whenever people forget to capitalize the L in my last name. I'm proud to have a last name with a prefix.
When people use "Whether this" instead of "Whether or not this".
"FIRST" Comments
Getting x/3 Mortars in BTD5 when you have enough Camo detection (I like to call that "Loyalty Mortar".)
Using Autism as an insult (Maybe it's not a "pet" peeve because I am autistic and become offended by that, but still.)
90% of sex jokes.
When someone takes a minor thing about me and treats it like my biggest notable thing
Mine is when people drag their dry, dirty shoes on the ground, creating a sound similar to sandpaper on wood.
I'm not a Grammar Nazi, but I do get annoyed when people say "me and…" instead of "…and I."
Sieg heil…
When I'm talking to someone and they check their text messages while I'm speaking. (bonus points if they act like I'm being rude for asking them to pay attention.)
My biggest pet peeves have to be the ones involving my family. My sister has a habit of pacing around, even when she eats food. Much of that pacing will occur in the kitchen, which is right above my room, so I get to listen to the slow heavy thumping of her dumb feet for what feels like an eternity.
And my dad. GOOD GOD my dad. Granted, I sort of have this problem as well, but I'm at least aware of it and can stifle it. Blowing air out of your nose to clear the airway. It is one of THE. MOST. OBNOXIOUS. SOUNDS. For people like me with chronic allergies, it can become an OCD/force of habit extremely easily. I can barely stand to be in the same room with my dad because of this, especially when he eats. I can't even begin to describe the rage that boils inside me when he does that nonstop, and God forbid I ask him to stop, in which he tells me to worry about my own business.

When people say I have a young face. It's annoying and makes me feel like shit. I had a bartender say that her 17 year old son has older face than me. If I was drunk, I would have told her to call her son over so I could fuck up his face…. Then I would get kicked out of the bar for being a drunken shit head. I was furious though and didnt tip at all.
Airline Food. What's the deal with that, huh?
I know I might get some heat for having this pet peeve, because me having this pet peeve is probably the pet peeve of many people, but a big one of mine is religion in the government. (Ex: "In God We Trust" on currency and "under God" in the pledge. I don't think politicians saying "God bless America counts though because that's the politician's right.)
Before you kill me, please realize that regardless of what you believe in, the government should not show favor to any particular religion. These references show bias towards Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam, etc.) because their gods are called "God".
I don't know if it's just my euphoricness, but it makes me cringe every time. It sincerely pisses me off. Well, you asked for pet peeves, and you got 'em!

Ugh, thinking about it makes me sick. Although once, and only once, did I have good airline food on my many travels. A Japanese airline basically served a bento, with rice, seawed, and cold noodles. Mmm… Bento…
Pic semi-related:
That whenever I finally give into a fandom, it immediately gets put on halt (Read: Homestuck).

I know what you mean. I got into Metroid a little while after Other M was released (not because of Other M, because of Super Metroid), and it's been on a hiatus ever since. It's the series' second break in its history, the first lasting an entire generation of console. I hope another one comes soon! This isn't the first time this has happened to me though, and as I can see, I'm not the only one.

Yahweh, Allah, and Jehovah. These are some of the names used to refer to the Abrahamic god. Since those who believe in the Abrahamic god believe him to be the only God, calling him God works just fine. The "In God we trust" is really just up to your interpretation. Now if it said Jesus or the holy ghost, then I could understand you feeling that way.

It's still showing bias. That's what I'm saying. It is considered bias towards these three religions. What about Pagans? What about Buddhists? What about spiritualists? Scientologists? (Heh heh…) What about atheists?
See what I'm saying? Those aren't the only three religions in the world. It's still bias. This could include the Ancient Greek and Roman religions because Zeus and Jupiter actually translate to "God", but what about all the others I'm referring to?
Many more religions than those three that have Gods you know…
Anyways, It is your pet peeve, so feel free to dislike it. Honestly though, and you brought this up in your other post, It's annoying to me how that bothers people so much. It's pretty trivial. That's my pet peeve.
@Dac
Yeah, not sure why it bothers me as much as it does when it really shouldn't. Well, that's how most pet peeves are to be honest.
Well, I'd have to say another one of my pet peeves would have to be children. I'm being totally serious! I'll probably never have kids of my own just for this reason. I can't stand 99.999999% of them. I might adopt an older kid or something, but from when they can talk to 12 is when I get peeved. Seems harsh, but hey! It's just something that bugs me.
Wow, my pet peeves are pretty weird and harsh…
When people call me directly after I tell to "call me back" on the answering machine
WHY DID YOU NOT PICK UP WHEN I CALLED? IT'S A 4-RING LIMIT DAMNIT
Commercial that still use 90s rap to advertise their products.

Another pet peeve of mine is lack of capital letters (in the right place).

People who don't take down their Christmas decorations.We are in the beginning on April and I still saw a house with his Christmas lights on. Maybe it is time to meet these offenders personnaly and say to them ''Hey ! Please take down your Christmas decorations ! Give Santa Claus and his elves a well-earned break !''
Catch phrases piss me right the fuck off (i.e. Bazinga or Did I do that?).
Seriously, if you wanted to be funny, you'd find something original and new to say instead of spewing that old shit.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics.
- When I'm in Choir and someone decides to sing loudly and out of tune on purpose (and then they don't get in trouble)
- People taking selfies in class
- Being forced to have a lab partner who's a complete idiot when I can work perfectly fine alone
- When people in advanced classes complain about the workload more than the people in the lower level classes and are less mature than said lower level classmates
- When adults are surprised at my age because I know how to act maturely in public (it's like no one in this town knows about the existence of maturity)
- Being either extremely quiet or really eccentric around my crush
- People talking loudly/using their phones/being otherwise obnoxious during a film
- Having too many pet peeves to list because the people in this town are extremely annoying/I have higher standards than the people here
