I tend to go to the kitchen to make a cup of tea, then end up cleaning some poo poo and walk back to my room and hop onto the computer.

I'll go to the bathroom in work when I print something so I only have to walk across the office once then forget the thing I printed 99/100 times and have to make an obvious about-face a foot from from my chair. BRAIN. Another one is how obnoxiously loud the floor is in work. I am quite small and I sound like a goddamn stampede. The big guy behind me vibrates the desks.

I like noisy floors actually. In my last job I could easily distinguish the sound of my boss's and officemate's footsteps so I knew when to minimize SA and netflix and bring up all the work stuff with a 20 second lead time so there was no obvious panic alt+tabbing.

Pet peeve about myself. I always have stuff I want to post here and it’s always something I remember when I’m driving, and I’m like, “oh I’ll remember it when I get home” but no, I don’t. There was 2 things I wanted to post today and now I can’t remember them

When you tell someone about a disastrous event that happened years ago and they start questioning and getting mad about why you didn’t do what they think you ought to have done. Dude, it was 2007. You weren’t there. What are you possibly going to achieve by getting angry about the situation? Also when you want to vent about a frustrating situation and some dickhead starts suggesting things to fix it. gently caress off, you don’t know what you’re talking about, your comments are only making me more annoyed.

People that cut in front of me even though there's virtually no other traffic and then slow down to slower than both of us were going make me wish I had a grenade launcher cheat code But in that event I just change to the other lane and speed back up so that I'm in front of them again unless I have to turn or something, so it's not the end of the world.

I also got that thing where you cant remember a certain word, just that I now need it. The word where you ... compromise! Thanks, guys! Also, if you speak two languages and you use your second language on a regular basis, you might find situations where you remember the word in the secondary language, but not the one in your mother language. Annoying as gently caress and really embarrassing to admit.

Dear neighbour in flat across from my flat, Did you know it is possible to close your front door without slamming it? Especially when you leave for work at 4:30 in the morning. Sincerely yours, neighbour who likes to sleep through the night.

Pet Peeve: Requiring a college degree to edit video as a job. Mother fucker I've been doing this for half of my life, I can edit you something rad. I don't need no degree. But yet...ahhh. Pet Peeve 2: The repetitive nature of my job hunting. Which is, look for editing job, get locked out for lack of degrees, get frustrated, panic, find lovely job, have panic attacks the entire time, leave, have no money, start again.

But yet...ahhh. As someone who is getting a college degree in video editing right now, this also bothers me. I can already edit video better than some professional movie editors (side-eye at Zack Snyder's catalog of horrible action sequences), it's a purely visual medium so all it should take for you to value me over the competition is showing you what I can do and how much faster. I'm literally only getting this degree because of this pet peeve, I haven't learned a single new thing from my major in my college education in like 3 years.

Pretty much any job where the requirements are "um, a degree, any degree" is a peeve of mine. Playing nice with other employees and being able to take in, organize, and present information are good skills a bachelor's (should) give you but it's not the only way, and it's surely shouldn't be worth potentially tens of thousands of dollars.

"K9" in reference to a police or other emergency services working dog. D+ wordplay in service of making a dog sound tacticool, ugh.

To be fair, this is probably really done because K9 is easier to write than canine on the side of a car or on a form or similar. Takes up less space and is immediately recognizable.

They could just write "DOG", though. It's not like the police are using jackals and foxes. (Yet.)

'K9' is also shorter than 'dog' edit: And there's also the reason of distinction between dogs as the general public knows them (bouncing, fluffy, pettable, approachable, tail waggers) and canine units for police (trained, unapproachable, and not at all pettable).

I have so many peeves about Smokers and Vapers, mostly behavioural. When people smoke and the weather is damp, the smoke tends to hang around, it seems like the water in the air traps it for longer, so on a wet day I often walk through somewhere where someone smoked 3 hours ago and still get a faceful of gross smell. Also fire drills have a unique irony as a result, because you leave the building to escape the smoke, but the entire office is smoking on the lawn so you just cannot escape it. This isn't a smoke break and someone here that you don't know well may be asthmatic, you're being assholes.

Fire drills are my pet peeve, especially if they are announced in advance. If you tell me it's a fake alarm ahead of time, gently caress you, i'm staying in my office to work. I don't need to practice walking outside. There's a window right there by my desk in case it's real.
