Pet peeve
Def: A pet peeve (or pet hate) is a minor annoyance that can instill extreme frustration in an individual. Typically each person has several pet peeves that aggravate her or him more than the average person. Another person may not react as negatively or at all to the same circumstance.

It takes much effort for some people to ruffle my feathers in major ways. I do mean A LOT to a point that I would throw a tantrum. Still, little things do annoy me at time. Here are some:

• I hate it when printed articles (essays, letters, reports etc.) are NOT numbered, justified and aligned properly. It’s a small thing, yes, but I just can’t help myself. The article would look unfinished and unpolished and I can’t accept that. Having a friend who can’t be bothered by all of that drives me crazy. Lucky for me, I only have one.
• Food are meant to be eaten till the very last morsel and not meant to be thrown in the bin. If you can’t finish it off, ask for a smaller portion.
• I bored to death when already thin people say that they are fat. I mean, like, hello! How thin do you want to be? Until your eyes are big and protruded like a bug’s? Every time I hear this, I just wish I could drag the person to nearest shrink.
• The cleavage parade and bitchy girly poses on MySpace. ‘Nuff said.
• When someone belittle another person stereotypically. I detest especially when men belittle women in the harshest ways. I’m pro-feminism after all.
• I’m annoyed every time when men watch sports. Why does it have to be ‘your’ team. You don’t own it. Much less contribute to it.
• Why must you say the apologetic gestures more than once? I heard you the first time.

So yes. I’m a nag, so what? I’m not ashamed of it and won’t apologize for it.
