Apostrophe abuse and the onslaught of people using them in plural words and not understanding plural vs. possessive.
No idea why people can't seem to grasp how wrong it is or when it started, but seems to have become more commonplace in the last few years for some reason.
I have a theory that it's tied to the rise of fast food chains and people seeing restaurants named McDonald's, Wendy's and Domino's and not understanding that those names are possessive and not plural.
I also see people using it to refer to families, e.g. "The Smith's" or "The Johnson's."

My wife/significant other for now....I am supposed to be able to read her mind....I swear that is what she basically said and that since I have to have her communicate with me then “we aren’t meant to be”! And I am not kidding one bit!

People who take too long, almost at a complete stop, to turn left at a light with a left arrow... bonus hatred points if there's a long line of cars behind them and they know it.
frick those people.
The constant left lane driver, especially when there's no one else around (we're talking irrational anger). The left lane is NOT THE frickING CRUSING LANE even if there's only a couple cars around or none behind you

The sound of a vacuum cleaner at work makes me want to flip my desk.

- People who use the word “bae”
- Shitty Subaru/Dodge/Civic fart can mufflers
- Straight pipes on a motorcycle and the dbags who rev their bikes in residential neighborhoods
- Meetings that go over an hour without a break

People stopping at a red light and leave 3-5 car lengths space between them and the car in front of them. It's like "Did you fail line mechanics in kindergarten?"

Terrible music and jingles on TV commercials.

People driving in heavy rain or fog without their headlights on.

I drive the posted speed limit in the right lane. I can not stand tailgaters (especially school bus drivers) that tailgate so close that I can see their individual nasal hairs. Also the clowns who want to travel on the side of my truck at the same speed in the left lane.

Earlier today I discovered another driving issue that makes me irrationally angry:
People who come to a complete stop when turning and turn into somewhere like they are driving a covered wagon that is already falling apart. I can assure you that your car can handle a turn without coming to a complete stop and inching your damn way into the fricking turn!
Also, people who only use the last 6ft of a quarter mile turn lane and insist on slowing down before getting in the turn lane. You don't have to coast for a mile in traffic, Margaret....you can hop over in that turn lane a bit earlier! frick!

Same.
These people make a turn like they're trying to put a baby in its crib without waking it up.
An additional driving pet peeve is when someone pulls out in front of me, forcing me to slam on my brakes, and they then proceed to go 5 miles under the speed limit. You had the balls to pull out in front of me but not at least drive the effing speed limit?
