@lje62 …we have one of those in our neighborhood. He gets joked at behind his back and now his name is a verb…like in…he pulled a Brad on me…or something like that. This one like to hug…tight. It’s gross.
If you order food at the Chick Fil A drive through and say “thank you” (which I always do) they say “my pleasure” instead of “thank you”.
One of the girls in my class works for them and says corporate requires them to say that, and she thinks it’s weird. I agree-I don’t think they’re getting ANY pleasure from me saying thank you, lol.
I also have RBF. But I also have no frown lines. My kids say I look like one of the androids from Blade Runner sometimes. reboot*

That’s when I scream “tighten up, buttercup!!!”
I use “no worries” all the time. I must aggravate the hell out of a lot of people.
@lasma- that’s when i flip my rear view mirror up so I can’t see the tailgater as clearly. It helps me ignore them better.
Another pet peeve, store clerks who ask you to donate. I have no problem saying, “no thank you”, but I always image the poor clerks are repeating that phrase so many times a day that it haunts their sleep!
Or poor store clerks who are required to peddle their store credit card!
@MotherOfDragons I don’t think they’re saying, “my pleasure” in regards to your thank you. I think they’re saying it was their pleasure to serve you.
^^^I agree.
They say “It’s my pleasure” all the time at the Ritz Carlton hotels. It’s kind of a trademark saying.
People who won’t move back/in on public transport to allow other people to board. This drives me bananas! We’re packed like sardines up front because people in the middle won’t occupy the space in the back.
@Hanna Along those lines, when people wait for the elevator right in front of the door, then when the door opens they just stand there, blocking everyone who’s trying to get off.
People who speed up and try to keep you from entering the highway or changing lanes instead of making room. Why, I ask?!
People who let their children trash the table and areas around it when they take the kids out to eat in a restaurant. I watched a woman this morning who was having breakfast with three little kids. There were crayons in the pancakes, creamers, napkins, and silverware on the floor and a table that was a gunky mess. The mom just paid the bill and left–I hope she included a big tip for the waitress.
At a band concert and a parent near me was taking pictures of her kid during a very quiet movement with the loud clicking sound audible on her phone. And not just one picture, but picture after picture.
Kids running around the store while their mom is busy on the phone. I worry about them slamming into my cart. I actually saw a kid slam into a wall at Target the other day (he was running to the exit) and the father yelled at the manager asking why that wall was there.

I know-it still feels a little weird, lol. But it doesn’t qualify as a pet peeve 
I wonder if they stole it from the Ritz?
Disney Vacation Club members used to get “Welcome Home” from the guard at the gate at the disney resorts, and we loved it. Then they started saying it to everyone who stayed on property, and it lost all its charm for us.

I wonder if she didn’t know she can shut that sound off? I’ve offered to show a few people how to do it when they have the same phone as I do.
I admit to being stressed out over the idea of unconsciously irritating people…
I like the Four Seasons’ “Is there anything else I can do for you?” line that they automatically say after “You’re welcome.” I can always think of a few more things.
Mall trains. Who decided it was OK to use the mall walkways for kiddie rides? One more reason to hate going to the mall.
I love the “my pleasure”. I don’t understand how that could offend anyone :-(.
Cars that pass you only to end up at the same red light.
What scares me are the cars that zig zag across lanes to get ahead.
This might be my #1 pet peeve: Expecting a package delivery (usually from USPS), but the flaky USPS tracking system won’t allow you to enter delivery instructions, even though you want the package dropped off at the front door. When you call, or even drop by in person, they say there is no option but to bring the “we missed you” slip back to the post office the next day to pick up the package. And often, when you go to pick up the package the next day, it is on the truck for delivery again… facepalm
- Bike riders who won't use the bike lane but instead ride 4 or 5 abreast in the vehicle lane while holding up traffic.
- Those pop-up boxes on websites that require you to click to close them so that you can proceed. Half the time you can't even find the nearly invisible X to close it.
- Hashtags.
- People who misuse "reply all".
So I read kids are eating more laundry detergent packs. My ? is why are the accessible to the kids? If you put these items in a place that the children are not able access then this situation can be avoided.
