Pet Hates
So what are your pet hates, the little annoyances you love to hate with all the hatred you can muster deep inside your hateful self, and why?
Mine are Wedges & Charity Missies. Wedges, or:  are the bane of shoe fetishists everywhere. If you need to be taller get some high heels, 'mkay??? And Charity Missies may be typically Dutch, I don't know. It's upper class women in their 20's or 30's who decide to make their empty lives worth living by running some charity organisation. It's invariably about disadvantaged children in developing countries, and the missies invariably look like a Dr. Frankenstein concocted mixture of Paris Hilton and a nun. Case in point:

 Personally, I hate people who take tiny matters really seriously. Like people who complain in restaurants because their bread rolls are too cold - we had that guy in the hotel the other day.

I personally hate it when people use tuppeny-hapenny words to make themselves sound intelligent & then rather ruin the effect by mispronouncing said word. It's hardly a multi-syllable wonder-word, but lots of people constantly say "pacific" when they mean "specific". Really winds me up.
