What's worse, is that all different people seem to commit the same annoying social faux pas. </p><p>Redditors shared the most annoying social pet peeves they know.</p><p>mmm-pistol-whip asked, <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/kgwco7/what_is_something_insignificant_that_you/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3" target="_blank">"What is something insignificant that you passionately hate?"</a><br></p>

Pets are a finicky lot. They have complete and well-established personalities, a sense and approach to life that, despite not speaking, we know all about.
<p>Of course, a cat, dog, rabbit, bird, etc. has a general demeanor that becomes obvious by their walk, attitude towards other animals and people, and the spots they love to sit and sleep in the house. </p><p>But there is another, far more particular realm that fleshes out the finer elements of an animal personality. Through freak-outs and nitpicky behaviors, a pet's whole self is made clear. These pet pet peeves somehow manage to be both the reason we know and love them, and often why they make us routinely pull our hair out. </p><p>One Reddit thread was a haven for the furthest corners of obsessive, impulsive pet maneuvers. </p><p>didnthinkabouthat asked, <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/hbhini/if_your_pet_had_a_pet_peeve_what_would_it_be/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x" target="_blank">"If your pet had a pet peeve, what would it be?"</a></p>

What is minor to some is major to many. And that's ok. We all process feelings differently. One's last straw is one's last straw! The smallest things can often be the spark that ignites the powder keg. That is why we all need therapy and meds. The "small" things add up. And when emotion is unchecked.... the small can lead to a HUGE explosion!
Take cover y'all!
Redditor u/visualsplendor wanted everyone to share about those things that drive us up a wall though they might not seem like that big a deal by asking.... What minor thing offends you the most?

<p>So I'm a terribly shy and quiet person even with friends and family. I get a lot of comments on "how I should talk more" or "why don't you talk more" or "all you say is yeah" so it really offends me when I actually do talk and either no one listens to me or they cut me off and talk over me.

A pet peeve is basically there to push you over the edge for no apparent reason.
They creep up on you, unexpectedly, when you're just trying to have a good day, and devastate your already frayed nerves.
What did we ever do to deserve this?

Slow Movers
<p>People slow walking/standing on a pathway.. especially if it's crowded like, do you mind acknowledging other people exist and are moving so at least make some space and or have a sense of your environment? Some people can be so self-centered; like, no wonder automobile accidents happen regularly.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/IamthatLoser/" target="_blank">IamthatLoser</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_36" style="min-height:280px"></div>

'Ow' to 'Oh No'
<p>When I hit my head by accident I completely lose it. Like accidentally hit the car door when getting groceries out of the car and suddenly I'm raging for no apparent reason against everyone and anything.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/bored_bottle/" target="_blank">bored_bottle</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_2" style="min-height:280px"></div>

My??? House????
<p>When people start playing music or videos out loud from their phone without headphones at a cafe, restaurant, or waiting room like they are just chilling at home. Some people are unbelievably self-centered and rude.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Tripleshotlatte/" target="_blank">Tripleshotlatte</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_3" style="min-height:280px"></div>

Just Read The Dang Resume
<p>When using indeed you need to upload a resume and fill out questions that teasing a resume would solve. Sometimes you can use that to apply for jobs, other jobs require going through their own site and upload a resume. They try to autofill the pre selected boxes but always manage to screw it up and you're forced to basically enter you resume manually again.</p><p>You have my information and you have my resume- why tf does applying for a job takes 20 minutes with patience, 3 days if I give up, and up to a week if I'm applying by phone but don't have my resume on it. YOU HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED. WHY IS THIS SO ANNOYING</p><p><span></span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Tucker0961/" target="_blank">Tucker0961</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_4" style="min-height:280px"></div>

Just Break The Hanger? Ja.
<p>Clothes hangers with those shoulder divets. Every time I pull a shirt off, the other side manages to get caught. My wife is used to finding tiny shards of demolished clothes hangers on the closet floor because I.

Tweeze This
<p>Stupidly specific- dropping a tiny yet important object on the floor.</p><p>I'm a jeweler and i spend waaay too much time crawling around my carpet looking for the 3mm sapphire that wouldn't stay in the damn tweezers.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/midlifecrackers/" target="_blank">midlifecrackers</a></p>Ouch Ouch Ouch
<p>I have two symptoms of neuralgia/neuropathy:</p><ol><li>Random, highly sensitive pain with no cause. When it happens, something like small breeze or my shirt brushing my skin can make me wince in pain. 5/10 in terms of pain.</li><li>A minor burning sensation on my fingers like I just touched something spicy and didn't wash my hands yet. 0/10 in terms of pain.</li></ol><p>#2 drives me <span style="background-color: initial;">nuts</span>. The pain I can deal with, but the "spicy finger" is utterly annoying. I have to keep my thumb planted on something cool at all times or I can't focus. It's happening right now.

Pets Or Pests?
<p>The sound of a cat grooming itself or a dog licking. I absolutely cannot handle those noises.</p><p>Also the neighbors dogs barking incessantly. I find that to be the most infuriating thing and completely disrespectful of other neighbors. Our animal control is a joke here too.</p><p><span></span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/ABADHD83WHEE/" target="_blank">ABADHD83WHEE</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_7" style="min-height:280px"></div>

What Have You Been Doing????
<p>People not being ready when you get to the front of the line. Especially airports, be ready with your ID/boarding pass for checking bags and you be ready at security. Missed a flight once because of this, I was livid.</p><p><span></span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/AjaxuallyBall/" target="_blank">AjaxuallyBall</a></p><div data-conversation-spotlight style="min-height:90px"></div>
Owies For Days
<p>I have never been closer to violence at the workplace or even literally throwing whatever project I'm working on across the room than the few instances that I've managed to hit my hand with a hammer multiple times in quick succession</p><p>Physical pain gets under my skin quicker and more aggravatingly than any amount of unwarranted verbal abuse, random change of plan, or infuriating sound. Physical pain can't be fixed by finding the person causing it once it's happened, you can't be passive aggressive, or just walk away from it. Physical pain will be there to remind you of how you just done goofed, and it'll always be in the way <em>just</em> enough to make whatever you're doing more miserable</p><p><span></span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/TheK1ngsW1t/" target="_blank">TheK1ngsW1t</a></p><div class="ad-tag" data-ad-name="In_Content_Responsive_8" style="min-height:280px"></div>
