for those of you who don't know what a pet peeve is, it's something little but really annoying that bugs you constantly, for example i cant stand people saying "like" 5 times a sentence

Grammar. Capitalisation, Spelling of simple words and punctuation. nuff said.

That's one of the the things that annoys me the most on social networking.

Another is ignorance, I understand some people may be less intelligent than others, and I'm not going to judge you on that, but those who do not use what intelligence they have to it's potential wind me up greatly. This also links to my previous point.

Actually, I'm from the UK, where it is spelt with an 's'.

I hate people who point out PUGs -.- I cannot see any reason why I should spend any time at all making sure that my post is absolutely grammatically correct and all that jizz.. So long as people can understand what I'm saying I cannot understand why people complain. English is not my main language, a very low percentage of the world has english as their main language so I don't get why people expect us to be totally fluent in english -.-

The "like" habit is one of my pet peeves. Every time I encounter someone with that habit, an image of a teenage girl, wearing white sunglasses, striped leggings, an oversized shirt, under used brain and sporting a high and tight side-pony, obnoxiously popping pink bubble-yum, comes to mind. "Like, gag me with a spoon!"

People using the 15 items or less lane to stock on supplies up for Winter. Even saw someone with two carts once. Wal-Mart won't allow the cashier to bring it to their atten either.

when people honk their horn at you for absolutely no reason when people don't let you over when people write on the same page with two different colored pens when people go half the speed limit when the indians at subway barley put any meat on the sandwich when most put a lot when people cry about how much mac sucks. i like mac, but i also like windows too. i just like mac more. just because you like windows more doesn't mean mac sucks. you can still admit you like certain things. when people are dicks on this website every time somethings not capitalized, I'm not publishing an article I'm talking about technology calm the fuck down, I'm not in english class.

i just basically hate people. i want to take m girlfriend and go to an island and it just be us the rest of our lives. as long as that island has internet of course.

Comments to my answer are going to be: "My pet peeve is when people don't capitalize everything and use proper punctuation when writing in a informal online blog." "why would you want internet if you hate people, people are all over the internet." "stop being racist against indians"

My response: "another pet peeve is people like you."

Bad grammar. I understand that some people have less understanding of grammar than others, but seriously, something like 'your over their' or 'It went really good' is just pathetic.
