I was replying to another thread and one of my pet hates came up (lip balms). Just wondered if anyone else had any wierd pet hates / compulsive things they do?
Mine are:-
Twisted coil phone cord.
I have, and mean HAVE to untwist any phone cord that gets all twisted around itself. Not sure why.
Lip balm:-
Too addictive and horrible to kiss

people who shout at you/bang on the window when you're in a phone box, thinking they are just about the damn funniest thing in town.

I found another pet hate the other day. People who try to correct me in everything I do or say, then tell me "I wouldve done it/said it better"

I agree about the people who don't use turn signals..that makes me crazy. As does dropping cig butts out the car window, get a frickin' empty soda bottle with some water in it and drop them in there, pop the cap back on and be done with it...grrrr.
One of my biggest pet peeves is when people whistle in the office. I am not a violent person and it makes me want to do bad bad things. Thank god for my iPod and killer earbuds.

A HUGE pet hate of mine is people with little or no manners. Now I'm not a snob by any means, but to have someone ask you to "pass the ashtray" and then when you do just be ignored isnt very nice. All they have to do is add a "please" and then say "thanks" once you've done what they asked! it's not much!!
Manners make people more tolerable i think

Especially London buses.
Especially London buses with big black women on them with an arse the width of the bus and a pushchair to boot.
Who then run over your foot.

Most people say hiccup as that's the sound they make
Always use "so's your face" and "only on Tuesdays" in as many conversations possible
