MINE:
when drivers pull out in front of you and dont speed up
driving slow in the passing lane
turning without signaling
when drivers wont let U merge in traffic
sitting at the light after it turns green
people on their cell phone while driving
being cutoff by another driver
clerks at fastfood places who hardly speak English
when the driver in front of U hits the breaks without reason
seeing people protesting on street corners
panhandling
crying infants near you on an airplane
Sometimes, anything and everything is my pet peeve.
