Chances are you've got a closet of pet peeves — you know, the seemingly insignificant things that, for whatever reason, drive you up the wall. Some are relatively easy to let slide, but others... Others we'll just about throw hands over.
Redditor u/shazulmonte wanted to know people's most ridiculous (yet serious) peeves and asked: "What is the pettiest, silliest, most meaningless hill you are willing to die on?"
And the people were not shy. Check out top responses below.

4. "That box of useless cables in my closet? You know the one that has a bunch of old USB cables, RCA cables, even S-Video cables, and a shit load of AC adapters I can't find the ends for? Yeah, that box is mine, and I will NEVER throw it away. "
5. "When not in use, the microwave is a clock. Stop leaving your unused time on there! You just have to hit the cancel button once, damn!"
