Figured it would be kinda funny to post a thread like this after reading some posts, and some things just drive me bat shit crazy....so yes, I am referring to the arms community and all the nomenclature problems and other such things...
I'm sure the Majority of us are all on board with "its a magazine!! not a fucking clip"...
But like, " my gun jammed.." NO!!!! IT FUCKING MALFUNCTIONED! Jam goes on Toast! with butter >_<
Idk....silly shit like that drives me nuts...maybe it's a military thing...but I have tons of these...
Anyone else care to share?
if you've ever seen the movie God Bless America...Im sure you'll have something constructive to post lol.

Not gun related but what drives me nuts is: The wife and I are driving to a location that my wife is aware of, I pull into the parking lot and find a parking place. As soon as I park and turn off the engine she then puts on her shoes, checks her hair and freshens her lipstick in the visor mirror like it's a total f**ing surprise that we have arrived. I'm convinced that she does it just to annoy me.

OR that over "in your shit for no reason" ass hole at the gun store, who when you're trying to show a friend something to help them buy a new gun, you've already dropped the mag, cleared the weapon, shown the empty chamber to the employee and your friend, and then some asshole who has nothing to do with you or your shit is all of a sudden talkin shit sayin how you just flagged him despite you aiming at the ground trying to demonstrate a firearms feature.
Fuckin asshole did that to me at Specialty Sports once....I was showing a friend how the new gen 4 glock was different to a gen 3 and how in some ways it aided manipulation and this dude outta no where buts in and just....urgh, fuckin dick. back the fuck off....*/endrant
People who drive on the interstate and don't use cruise control I have named this the speed up slow down game, drives me f'n nuts. 48000 miles of driving last year may have made me a little crazy but damn cruise control people learn it, live it, love it!

AMEN!
Mine does this crap every time we go anywhere. Then when we go somewhere else, like if we're leaving a coffee shop to go to the grocery store, she does it AGAIN despite having already done her makeup and crap when we got to the coffee shop.

One of my peeves is when some asshat at a gun shop who doesn't have half a clue about how to keep a firearm pointed in a safe direction keeps seeping me with the muzzle until I have to go over an reprimand his dumb ass.

1. People who are unwilling to learn. I'm not talking about people who aren't interested in a certain topic, but people who really won't put in the effort to learn basic things. Do I care if you don't have a Bachelor's, Master's or Ph.D? NO! But if you're going to talk about our government, at least learn the basic principles that our government is built upon... Things like natural rights and social contracts. You don't have to read the Federalist Papers (although you should), just don't be ignorant.
2. One more thing that is semi-related: I HATE arguing about things on the internet. I hate arguments in general. I LOVE a well-thought out discussion, even if I don't agree with the topic or points the other person is making. If you want to have a discussion that others may benefit from, learn the basics of speech and debate. Understand what a logical fallacy is and avoid them (unless you're running for office... then logical fallacies are totally acceptable! [facepalm]). Admittedly, I am sometimes guilty of this... I get all hot and bothered when someone (usually someone who is guilty of point 1 above) starts spewing offensive garbage and refuses to have a healthy discussion... I often fall right into their trap and then I look like the one who is arguing ignorantly.
People who use the word "irregardless". It's a hideous, grammatical hybrid abortion of two otherwise fine and useful words.

The good news: you're the first person in this thread to use that horrid word.
DEMOCRATS....
THIS!!!! Oh and my short list besides Demonazis...
-Prius'
-Stupid people
-Stupid people who can't drive
-Hippies
-People who go to McDonalds/Burger King/etc. and have been in line for 5 min, then when it's their turn to order THEY STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT!! AHHHH!
1. People who move my shit. I put something in one place (usually at the house) so it will remind me to do something. Then, when I forget to do it because the wife has "found a better place for it because that's not where it goes," it's now my fault for not doing whatever it was I had to do AND for leaving shit laying around.
2. Inflexibility. "Dear, let's go to Target and get some widgets." On the way back, I say, "Forgot, I need to stop by Sportsman's and get some ammo (you know, when they still had ammo)." She basically throws a fit, so, instead of being efficient and killing two birds with one stone, I have to drive her ass all the way home, then drive all the way back to Sportsman's again.
3. Blaming innanimate objects for the woes of society.
The good news: you're the first person in this thread to use that horrid word.
Hey, you know that old adage about how kids tend to grow into their "labels"? I gotta represent for my Engrish hobby every so often, just for flavor. (yes, I know "gotta" isn't a real word either, but it's so flexible... :-)

I used to have that very same problem with an ex-fiance of mine years ago. Decided she was a bad investment and had fortunately kept the receipt.

I hate people who stand in line at the grocery store and only start to get out their method of payment AFTER they've been told the total. Then they go for their purse(women usually do this) and rummage for money or their card. They've been standing there for ten minutes and only NOW believe they are going to have to pay for it. geeeze! Have you payment ready when the cashier is done, not AFTER, it really speeds things up.
I've probably mentioned it before, but people who drive around speed bumps. I'm trying to figure out which annoys me most, when people drive around speed bumps through parking spaces, or when they dive at 30 mph at the side walk. The ones hugging the sidewalk can't even avoid the speed bump on one half of the vehicle, and which part still goes over the bump? The part where the mouth breathing asshole sits.
Also, when people take candy out of a bowl of candy, unwrap it, and throw the wrapper back into the bowl. People do this at my office all the time. There are two trash cans at every single desk in my office. Not every single desk is occupied by a person, but there are still trash cans. Every meeting room, rest room, lunch room, and even the hallways have trash cans. There are more than twice as many trash cans as people in the office, and you literally cannot visit a room in the entire building that lacks a trash can, yet some people can't take their trash wherever they are heading? Blows my mind.

It is even better when they pay by check and start filling it out after the total is rung up. Come on, you can at least have Safeway and the date written on there.

Hell I swipe my card immediately as soon as they start swiping my items. Half the time I have to wait on the cashier to realize i am all paid up.
What I hate? Reading the comments on the online newspaper websites and seeing the FSA commenters who spew the liberal shit all over since they don't have real jobs.

My favorite is the people that stand in line (Subway, Qdoba, Chipotle, etc) for 15 freaking minutes, than when it is finally their turn, they stare at the menu for 2 minutes thinking what they want.
I may be a bit OCD but I treat grocery stores like traffic. Stay on the right side of the road. Can't stand when I am trying to maneuver my way through a grocery store because jackass' can't figure out it's a two way street.

You must be annoyed by half the internet then.
To stay on topic:
People that drive with constant gas instead of constant speed.
I don't need anything to drive me nuts...I can walk there in less than a minute.
There, their, and they're.
To, too.
