Your pet hates

After sitting through the end of a football match, some of you may also have seen it, I became greatly annoyed by how one of my housemates was acting. He just seems to get on my tits by doing two things that really bug me...
1) Clapping the tv: Why?! The fucking people can't hear you on the other end
and
2) Insisting on replying to questions that you're not addressing to them
This has inspired the vote, and of course the thread - what things get on the tits of other Metropolians?

My dad does the same with the same and even adds "I love it". I hate that.
I hate noisy eaters! For gods sake! Close your mouth when you eat!

YES! Noisy eating is the MOST distracting and awful sound when you're trying to eat.

along with noisy drinkers and people who somehow manage to make their sneezes sound 200 times louder than they naturally should.

Amazingly, my housemate fits these descriptions too. He tagged along with me and a friend to revise in the uni library and his cough (one per minute, on the minute) was SO LOUD. Ironically he left because the room was "too noisy" yet he was the noisiest thing in it!

Big Brother.
Lorry drivers and Taxi drivers ( not all of them, just the ignorant ones).
Constant sniffing ( just blow your nose or stop snorting the white stuff).
People who don't look me eye when they talk to me.
At this point my fella would like me to add one on his behalf..
Women who talk through a programme he's trying to watch goes silent through the adverts only to start nattering when the programme starts again ( not sure who he's referring to there, hehe).
In the time it's taken to write that he's come up with a few more, which i shall not post as i fear i may incriminate myself and i might get a touch of typers cramp.

Noisy eaters and people who sit down and breathe out really heavily and for a really long time after doing something.
