So that was one I chose.

The same thing happens to me too! I've always been a magnet for odd people and weird occurances. I once got stuck in an airplane bathroom. The lock somehow jammed and I couldn't get back out. I was standing in there for what seemed like HOURS. It took three stewardesses and a bunch of staring passengers to get the door unjammed. God was I ever embarrassed. >:(

People who don't clean up after their pets is definately one of my peeves. I take a roll of toilet paper and a baggie with me when I walk Cody. Somebody else shouldn't have to clean up after my pet.
And there's nothing more annoying than stepping in a nice soft pile of puppy shit in your dress shoes. :P
Rude drivers is another one. Here in the Midwest we are TERRIBLE drivers. But for the most part we are polite. Honking of car horns is considered extremely rude here. Car horns are only used for emergencies here. It's rare to hear a car horn in most parts of the Midwest, even in the downtown areas. Chicago and Detroit would be exceptions though. ;)

Ooooooooooooo, I just thought of another one related to shoes and stepping in stuff... wet gum on the sidewalk or pavement! So annoying to get wet gum stuck to the bottoms of nice shoes!
:P

Oh yeah that is bad! Especially during the summer when it's all bubbly and gooey. You step on it and it creates a fine string and when you try to pick it off you have to contend with all those nasty little gum strings too. They get all over your hands, all over the paper you're using to clean it off, and even after you've managed to remove it, a sticky film remains on the bottom of your shoe and your shoe makes an annoying snapping sound as you walk across the floor. >:(

Kelda I'm going to slap you down again, friend. ;)
The sticker is under my foot on the liner or on the sole!!!! How can that possibly bother someone?!?!?! Is a pet peeve for people to leave the label on their underwear as well?!?
