I hate that too, although I have an uneasy feeling that I've probably been guilty of it myself.
I saw something astonishing today. I can't say it is a "peeve" since I have never seen this before, and please God, hope never to see it again. A woman in a restaurant noticed that her little boy needed changing. So she took him to an adjoining booth and changed him right there on the seat in the middle of the restaurant. She then went back to her meal without even washing her hands. I couldn't believe my eyes.

Maybe I feel more comfortable about me than you do about you.
So, you just "gave up?" What is that thought process? "Well, everyone knows I'm an idiot, might as well live with it." I don't get it. That makes no sense at all. It's fucking ten seconds to fix, and you just leave it?!? What the fuck?
Oh wait, I'm sorry. Ten seconds is nothing to me, but to you it might wipe out the time it takes for your next thirty posts.

Wait, ekserb has an ugly body? With thousands of fuzzy, poorly lit webcam pictures of overweight men and their small, barely-there penises, ekserb has the ugly body? Riiiight...
Not that I'd ever make the effort to offend them about their looks (or lack thereof). That's just....tacky.

Yes, it was horrifying.
I have a whole list of dog-related pet peeves. I spend an enormous amount of time providing my dog with proper exercise and socialization, and I clean up after him without fail. Unfortunately, not everyone is so conscientious, which is why my town won't allow dogs in parks. It is very frustrating.
Here's one I think someone mentioned a while ago: irresponsible parents. Or parents who decide to have children without having all of the resources in place to properly raise them and who assume things will just work themselves out.
I wish I had the balls to tell a couple I'm friends with that they need to stop having babies (#2 due in May) until they both have jobs and can move out of his mother's basement.
Oh, and please don't call me anymore because mom-in-law is drunk again and you just have to get out of the house for the night, so can you please haul hubby and toddler over to my house for a little slumber party when I have to work the next day because you can't afford a motel room. *Inhale*

The use of part of a sentence for the subject of an email, then the rest of the sentence in the body of the message:
Subject: "What's"
Body: "Going on?"
I'm not looking at that part anymore! What was the beginning of this sentence fragment again?
My mother does this and I've noticed it a lot in messages on these forums. People will put something like, "Amazing" in the subject, then "body you have there, girly girl," as the message text.
"Body you have there" isn't a sentence. It's nothing. Stop doing this.
The subject field is to let the reader know what the general topic of the message is, so that they can get an idea of what they're looking at when viewing a list of messages. This is so I don't have to open every fucking message when I'm looking for the one with the question about my niece's Xmas gifts. "News," "PS," "something," and "also" are not good subjects. "New pics" isn't descriptive enough when there are fifty of them in my inbox. Same with "???"

Here's another one:
People who start and then continue these little chat sessions in threads dedicated to specific topics. If you're not sharing a pet peeve or discussing someone else's take it into PMs.
I've just checked my latest subscriptions and the two of you have been chatting between you in three different threads. Get a room!
