When people say "no offence, but.." then they end up offending you anyway.

The people who used to be my close friends but are no longer my friends used to do this to me so much. I got so fuckin' annoyed.

People constantly talking when others are talking (assembly, classroom, lectures). one/two worded quick whispers are fine.


Oh yup. This used to annoy me in the engineering systems design lectures because people at the back  ALWAYS talked.


A pet peeve of mine would have to be slow people walking in front of me. GRRR!!!

Girls who work their way around the room butchering other girls' appearance in terms of their fashion sense, hairstyle, beauty, features, etc. They have no idea how superficial, shallow and above all hurtful they are. I show no respect for these people. (I went to an all girls' school, and this activity was especially popular on free dress days. Of course, not all of us are like that, but those who exhibit these qualities I completely fail to tolerate.)

 yeah, I don't like the attitude that girls are unintelligent and/or superficial if they put a lot of effot into their appearance

I cant stand the wannabe muzza/gangsters at my school, thinking they're all hard with their open-house parties and stuff. It pisses me off because nearly half of the year level acts like this, and when the hard working students try to learn or contribute,they get laughed at. I cant wait for results day next year, so I can see their faces when they dont get any of their preferences.



YESS i cant stand that

and the people that think its cool to fail ? :S :S :S err...

How about people in the city who walk and expect people to give way to them? (Like you'll have to make some adjustments to your movement in order to not collide shoulders with them.)

Rude customers - when you tell them something and they don't listen to you, and 10 minutes later they come back asking the question which you answered 10 minutes ago. GRRRRR

Elderly people that think respect is a GIVEN due to their age, and as a result, they can be as rude as they want to everyone else. I'm not saying we shouldn't respect them; but respect is a two-way thing and I've seen some pretty horrible things especially on public transport.

Agreed.

Respect should b 2-way, and something earned rather than demanded.

My list...
Well I don't like people who say... fully sick bro, I swear to God man... and all that.. [I was brought up in a school full of them... ]
People who think their mother country is better than Australia... I mean if you loved living there so much, what the hell are you doing here?
People who walk slow in general
When people talk loudly whilst you're trying to concentrate..
People who lie...
People who are arrogant
People who swear a lot
And many other little things other people have said

Agreed. I hate how people swear for the sake of it. It's pointless and just generally unpleasant.

Also, people who think it's okay to smoke in my face, and not even apologise. I swear, in the city today, I passed how many people who just blew smoke in my face without a care in the world? Why do people think it's cool to smoke, and drink for that matter? I think it is a repulsive trait which should not be taken light-heatedly, by any person whatsoever. And the worst part is, I will probably get lung cancer before they do because of all the second-hand smoke I am exposed to just having a brisk walk throughout the city. I hate how my body is being affected more than their bodies are when it comes to smoking.

To end this, I will never marry a smoker. :P (And sorry if I offended any smokers here, they just sometimes, really get on my nerves.)
