We recently posted an article where people shared the pettiest, most meaningless hills they're still willing to die on.
And you, lovely BuzzFeed readers, had a bunch to add to the list. While the infractions range from slight to serious, it's clear that a little consideration goes a long way in helping maintain sanity on the daily.
Check out the top responses below!
1. "People being on their devices in the middle of a conversation and then taking 20 seconds to answer."
2. "Cars that ride your bumper on the freeway."
3. "People who go out as groups of three or more, and walk around the shops three abreast, with prams and trolleys in the mix."
"I get that you want to talk to each other, but you're taking up every bit of walking space for other people and (usually) walking too slowly for anyone to go around you."
4. "I hate when people leave an empty toilet paper roll or leave just one square of tissue on there."
5. "Not closing lids on shampoo/soap bottles drives me nuts!"
6. "People who write 'apart' when they mean 'a part.'”
7. "Put your damn cart in the return at the grocery store! It will take you less than a minute! Stop being so freaking lazy!"
8. "It’s could/should/would HAVE. Not OF. That doesn’t even make sense. I don’t care about any excuse like, 'Oh, it sounds like could of/could’ve,' just NO."
"It’s a major pet peeve."
9. "My wife slams the car door every time she gets in or out. I mean a full-out, practically break-the-door slam. Drives me absolutely nuts, and we have had huge arguments over it. She thinks the door will not fully close if she doesn’t put all her muscle into it."
10. "Don't leave just a sip of something in a bottle and put it back in the fridge."
11. "This is only seen as a minor 'petty' thing to able-bodied people, but don't use the God damned accessible parking spot or sit in the accessible seats at a movie theater."
"I went into a mildly full theater where two able-bodied teenagers without anyone with a mobility aid with them flat-out refused to move so my care person could sit next to me in my wheelchair at the movies. Someone accompanying his mother with a cane moved instead, and he was actually SUPPOSED to be in those seats! Those seats aren't just there for disabled people to have friends sit next to them; many disabled people, myself included, need assistance 24/7. It's just God damned manners to understand that and not just abuse the fucking system."
12. "File to single file when you're walking across the hallway and someone is coming in the opposite direction. Sorry, I exist too, you privileged bitch."
13. "Leaving dishes on the counter NEXT to the sink rather than in them (when their lazy ass is finally power-nagged into cleaning the dirty dishes that they left everywhere)."
14. "'Awe' and 'aww' are two different things!"
15. "'My head literally exploded!' 'I literally died when he did that.' 'Lol I literally just crapped myself laughing.' Etc. Etc. Ad infinitum."
"The worst thing of all is that people misuse ‘literally’ so much the dictionary definition is changing so that it means both ‘literally’ and ‘not literally!’ Now, language is fluid; the meaning of words will always evolve, and I am all for that. But not when it’s because stoopid people are using good words wrong."
16. "Keep to the right when standing on the escalator! The left side is for those who are in a hurry."
17. "If you’re in the left/fast lane on the interstate and cars are behind you, freaking MOVE."
19. "In the same vein, people who spell it 'jewlery' instead of 'jewelry' or say 're-la-tor' instead of 'real-tor.'"
"🥴"
20. "I hate when someone is cooking and places the pan handle outwards instead of to the side."
21. "It’s Chipotle not Chipolte GAH."
22. "I hate when people don’t pay attention to movies...like...it’s kind of silly, but it just gets to me every time!!"
"LIKE, JUST PLEASE SIT THERE WITHOUT TALKING AND MOVING UNNECESSARILY AND WATCH THE DAMN MOVIE!!!!"
23. "If there are several clean stalls in a public restroom, don’t choose the one next to me. Just don’t."
24. "Stop wasting food! I hate seeing people throw out perfectly good and edible food just because they aren't hungry anymore; save it for later."
25. "Don’t put trash or teabags in the sink! Scrape it into the garbage! Even if you have a garbage disposal, food scraps go in the trash or compost!!!"
