So, I am going to be honest and give my actual pet peeves:

1. People touching me! I do not shake hands (if I can avoid it), and I most certainly do not hug random people. I am not against touching, but it must be the right person at the right time. I do not do random, and I do not do forced physical contact.
2. Random talkers, I do not talk for talk’s sake. I would rather sit silently than talk about the weather or the football.
3. The outspoken ignorant. People who speak with authority on a subject when they are ignorant. That might be rude, and I am often so considered, but people “stay in your lane”.
