Express whatever really pisses you off....
My experience: Today I decided to have a bud over. I hadn't seen him in a while and thought it might be fun to "catch up." About 2ish hours after he shows up he gets a phone call from another friend of his about whether or not he would like to come over there and chill out. WTH! He actually goes and says he'll be back in an hour or two.
... All I can say is that i'm eating all the pizza I ordered :mad:
People who talk their way out of anything... I mean when you are a worthless POS and everyone including your bosses know your a POS and you are told that your fired and you manage you weasel your way back into the company that everyone knows you just got fired from.... well that's just skill I guess. But damn it I was _THIS_ close to getting a raise today. It's a bitch these guys are getting paid more than me for doing less and having been with the company for shorter period. How do they do that?!

100% with ya on that one. these situations are particularily annoying when your in a resteraunt and you can't just walk away.
Oh wow, where to begin. People who cannot drive, especially if you are in the left lane going below the posted speed limit. People who change the way they talk depending on the company they are around. The list could go on.
Groups of people who walk EXTREMELY slow in front of you and take up the whole sidewalk/hall/whatever.

What everybody has already said really. It can be summed up, other peoples ignorance. They often are not being nasty or anything, they just don't see, or care, that their actions may offend others. And the whole war thing. When I was growing up in the late 60s there was a real feeling that we could change the world, give peace a chance, love and peace man, far out, too much, etc. All that seems to have happened is that we have all gotten more cynical and selfish and found more reasons and more efficient ways to destroy ourselves, all perfectly justified, of course :rolleyes: It really is very sad, we could be so much more.

Mine's more industry specific, but when I'm working camera during a TV broadcast and an anchor at the desk tells me where to move the camera. Few things get me more angry at work. They don't know anything about how our shots are blocked, and moving the shot for them kills the on air product. It's always just for their own convenience, nothing more.
Do your job, and I'll do mine.
The same can be applied to all jobs, I'm sure.
And another thing. Today I was at dairy queen, went with my family. My mom won a gift card, so she was ordering for the three of us. She goes up to this kid at the register who looks like he dropped out of high school and never learned how to comb his hair. She orders 3 Peanut Buster Parfaits. His response? "Wha- 3?! ... man, you're serious?" He then continued to be completely incompitent with everything, giving my mom crap about how he didn't know how to ring up a card. And when he made the icecream, it literally looked thrown together. I've never seen worse Icecream creations, honestly, I've seen kids at Ponderosa make better sundaes.
You don't care about your job, that's great. But when it effects me, the end consumer, you've got a problem.
People who block an entire aisle with their shopping cart(s) and then glare when you say "excuse me"... Lately I am close to biting their ignorant heads off, but I restrain...

Me? This is going to seem nit-picky, but people who confuse the definitions between logical and pragmatic. Pragmatism, while logical, does not mean that logical = pragmatism. It's a matter of premise lining up with your conclusion. So its entirely possible to be logical and totally defy the idea of pragmatic ideals.
It's definition, sound and valid are different, and confusing those totally pisses me off to no end as well. It's entirely possible to be logical without being sound...it helps to be sound, but damn it validity is 90% of logical law, very few people care whether or not there is soundness to your argument when you're talking pure logic.
Edit for personal humor: I'm pretty sure I'm the only person on the planet this bothers.

Another big hate of mine is adverts. It seems you can't look at anything without somebody saying 'give us your money' . I totally refuse to click any ad or buy anything from anybody who knocks at my door, they'll get it slammed in their face. Any flyers I get, piles of crap through the door, go in the bin without being looked at. I decide what I want to buy and when, if I need it I'll do the research.

No need to use turn signals when driving. You already know where you're going.
Please, by all means, honk as much as possible when traffic doesn't move to your liking. Honking magically clears traffic.
If you've got a computer problem, give me as little information as possible. I know every possible to every possible problem and I love trying them all.
PIN number, ATM machine, VIN number, NIC card. Redundant redundancies.
I could care less. No, actually, you *couldn't* care less.
Whoever came up with the rule that certain words- ones that end in vowels especially- need apostrophes when pluralized should be shot. Twice.
I have other peeve's, but I could care less to list them now. I have to go to the ATM machine, use my PIN number, withdraw a few dollar's, and buy a new NIC card.

People who vote for someone they don't want to win because they "want their vote to count". Vote for who you want to win, not who you think is going to win!!! Example: People will vote for Obama or McCain even if they think Paul would be a better president and will even state that DON'T THINK WHO THEY ARE VOTING FOR WILL BE A GOOD PRESIDENT!!!!! Bwaaarable!!! that thinking pisses me off to no end.

I'm usually not pissed off at much of anything. I am usually able to find the humor or silver lining in all things.
Except when people steal things from you. Like, money, ideas, wimenz, happiness, the last 30 seconds of your life which was stolen by someone who forced you to dodge monkey crap that is being thrown at you by monkeys at the zoo because he pushing you in the cage because he thought it would be "funny".

Thanks to my own informed opinions. I dislike Apple because of their marketing tactics, the price of the hardware, and the general top-down lockin inherent in their products.
I like OSX and iPods and the Mac Pro towers. I don't like how I have to have an "Apple-labeled computer" to run OSX, supposedly HAVE to use iTunes with iPods (go Songbird), and need to pay far out the ass for the configurable, pseudo-upgradable Macintosh. Sure, they're great parts, but I'm very happy with the computer I have, and just sometimes like to tinker.

I wait. Nothing.
Walk down to the mailboxes. No parcel.
?
Walk out the front security door to find my 37-lb box sitting there, leaving me to haul it up two flights. Two other parcels for other tenants were sitting there as well.
What pisses me off? Curbside delivery where anyone can walk off with my parcel.
Might just file a non-delivery complaint, claim I never received the parcel, refuse to pay the CC charge & let them fight it out with UPS the next time it happens. Yes, I'm that pissed off. I aggravated my back.

I get a little pissed off when people email me asking a question when the answer is clearly explained in the email they replied to. They just didn't bother to read it all.
Oh, I didn't read that part.;)
My worthless nephew pisses me off the most though.
Call me next time LIN, I'll gladly help you out ;)
It aggravates me when students think that I should make exceptions to my rules because of their personal dramas, then shout at me for being unfair.

To explain a bit more (and to vent more frustration because this is really, really something that irritates me to no end, even just thinking about it in reference to past discussion), I get so irritated when people automatically assume that the only way to be logical is to be pragmatic. It's entirely possible to be logical while avoiding a pragmatic approach.
I blame this entirely on having a logic class and the fact that Validity is all that matters in a complete philosophical discourse. We can talk soundness...but that's another monster and something I don't want to get into, because it starts confusing people and making them think logic = pragmatism.
Another thing that pisses me off: Being told I'm supposed to receive an email about work that's coming up and not receiving anything for the past 2 weeks. Perhaps you should, maybe, shoot me that email?
Second (and only joking): http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2008/oxygen-0731.html Damn it MIT you should have done this SOONER

are you a woman, and ever had sexual contact with another male who ever had sexual contact with a male, even once?
guess what answering yes to either of these questions results in. never mind that they don't ask you if you've ever had unprotected sex with anyone.

BECAUSE OF COUNTRY MUSIC I'VE GONE CRAZY
I sit here by the men's room in this country bar
Consuming so much beer that I can't walk too far
A month ago my lovin' lady had a cow
When she heard that RALPH would not be back on NASHVILLE NOW;
Those old country songs that I've been singing all the time
Finally drove away my wife and drove me outta my mind
And the future's lookin' wierd, it's enough to make you scared
And Because Of Country Music, I've Gone Crazy.
I got holes in my boots, I got holes in my jeans
Hold on, I'll be right back, man you know what that means
Between the bar tab and the jukebox, my mind got up and went
I even voted for CLINTON for president;
Play some HANK, Play some WILLIE, Play some PATSY CLINE
Keep your finger off of CRAZY, It'll blow my mind
And the future is the pits, it's enough to make you....quit
And Because Of Country Music, I've Gone crazy.

I'm gonna go with criminals, who in their attempts to flee custody, decide biting me is a good idea. It brings about all sorts of stuff thats rather irritating...
-Eternally long ER visits because its a low priority injury
-IV antibiotics that make me nauseous
-Incessant follow-ups with occupational health
-Waiting for blood results to see if
-A: The biter has any communicable diseases
-B: If I've contracted them
-Occupational therapy to repair tendon damage
-The threat of lawsuits for kicking their ass after being bitten
Pretty much the whole experience pisses me off...:mad2:

Well, why does it bother you so much if none of these apply? I'm kidding, but I guess it's their way of checking any possibility of AIDS before actually handling your blood.
It's more like discrimination.

How are you (as a guy) more likely to get stds (pick one):
1) Having sex with a dude...with a condom.
2) Having sex with that banging girl you met at a party, but you forgot your raincoat, but she says she's clean (and you're a bit tipsy), so you totally go for it anyway.
The questionnaire only asks about one of them (1), and if you answer yes, you get rejected before they even do the mini-physical.
Oh, in case you're wondering? They test all blood for the HIV anyway.
She thinks my tractor's sexy... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0Rb44MHzLc)
Contrary to most people's likes here, I like rap music. Believe it or not, there are those songs that don't talk about sex and drugs. Although I guess all the mainstream rap songs do...
Edit:
That video makes me crack up every time. I was literally ROFL the first time I heard of it...
