Maybe it's drivers that don't have the common sense to Turn On their Headlights...
while driving their White Car...
In a _Snowstorm_ ...
just because it's daytime...
Or
Posting threads in Master Yodas voice...:
"What kind of CS member you are...?"
Granted...Not everyone is from an English-speaking country, and their sentence structure varies greatly...
but a Lot of Americans don't know the difference between
You're / Your / Yore
Woman / Women
There / They're / Their
...and don't even Start me on * Texting * here...!!!

What are some of _Your_ fav's...??

People that decide to leave their shopping trolley in the middle of the aisle, so nobody can get past. Especially when they then stand alongside it to put their shopping in the trolley, and glare, should anyone try to move it so they can get past.

Screaming children! Control your offspring. Duck tape has 1000's of uses. Don't make me find a use that isn't recommended!

People who aren't coordinated enough to use turn signals when changing lanes or turning. Having to pay for fuel before you can fill up.

A group of people chatting on a sidewalk, taking all the room and oblivious to others need to get past them.
Someone using my tools and not even have the courtesy to take them back where they belong.
Someone who judges me without even taking the time to talk to me, let alone know me.
People who think it's okay for their dog to crap all over the sidewalks and not pick it up.
A police officer who breaks the speed limit.
A coworker who has time to watch me work and then reports to the boss that I'm not working.
Someone I don't know who calls me on my cell phone and asks ME who I am!

^^^..Haa-a-a-aaa!!!..^^^
I'm constantly Amazed how many mispronunciations can be derived from _4_ letters...!!!
My most common 'correction'....:
It's pronounced the Same way it's Spelled!!
*******
Those endless parade of 'Gadget' commercials...that all end with...:
"Call NOW...Get a second one, FREE!!"
Why not just charge an acceptable price for ONE..??!!

I work in a maintenance department and it bugs the hell out of me when someone is too lazy to properly roll up a hose or extension chord. Trying to untangle this mess takes up too much time and is annoying. doh
Ugh !

MANNERS...especially table manners are a big thing with me.

People who chew with their mouth open.
People who talk with food in their mouth.
Gum smackers.
Scraping teeth on the fork.
People who interrupt others when they are speaking.
People who HAVE to answer a phone call while you are talking with them,
even when the call is NOT an important one.
People who lie, just to lie.
And loud talkers.
