    I don't like when people talk to me in any public place. I always have random shoppers try to chat me up at the grocery store. I know I have a friendly face, but my personality doesn't match.

    I don't even like to walk the dog in warm weather because the other sidewalk people always want to stop, pet him, and run their jaw for a few minutes.

        My biggest pet peeve would have to be every women in my life always comes to me with their problems. Whether it be family or friends they always call me to talk my ear off about a problem(big or small).

            About being pulled over...some officers have the job of finding motor vehicle law violations. I am not one of those officers.
            So I can speed by you at 80mph in a 55 and you would be cool with it?

              If it's an emergency wouldn't they have their lights or sirens on? I'm taking about just a cop speeding down the road with nothing warning other drivers.

                Truth be told, I don't have much of a southern accent, though, being raised in the city/suburbs all my life. I mean, I'm sure the accent is there to some degree, but it's not very noticeable.

                Anyways, a pet peeve of mine is people speeding up and slowing down as a result of not using the cruise control. I hate this. If you want to drive fast, then fine. If you want to drive slow, then fine. But don't be driving 60 MPH one minute and then fly past me going 70 MPH a few minutes later. Unfortunately, since almost no one uses the cruise control, this means that a lot of people peeve me.

                  I love it when I'm driving and a cop speeds by me well above the speed limit, no sirens or lights on.
                  That's nothing. Cops in Chicago roll through reds ALL THE TIME... and no, it's not an emergency, no lights or sense of urgency, just a leisurely roll through.

                      At my old job there was this chubby sweaty dude and it never failed when I went to relieve myself he'd stroll up to the next urnial and and start taliking and of course turn his head and was looking right at me, I finally had to say, "Keep your eyes on the road Cowboy." That pretty much put an end to it.

                      And the worse is the door rattler when you are trying to take a deuce. Seriously if the door is closed, there is no need to rattle the handle.

                        Those jerks who make a left turn as soon as the light turns green, forcing you to lay on the brakes to avoid hitting them. Ugh I HATE that

                          It's a green light, what are you expecting them to do?

                            I think he is referring to intersections where there is no dedicated left turn signal and the car tries to beat the oncoming traffic at the turn of the light.

                                Yes this is what I was referring to. Sorry it wasn't clear lol

                                A lot of my driving peeves involve cars pulling out in front of me in some way
