Think of it more as, inventing reasons to have a beer at the end of the day.

I have a problem with people who don't like to be told how to spell and write correctly. Honestly, I have no idea why people don't like being told they're morons.

The thing I dislike is the phrase, "pet peeve".

People thinking they're cool walking around with an iPhone or iPod or bragging about said purchases.

I have pet peeves about:
a) people who have pet peeves about iPods or iPhones,
b) people who have pet peeves about people who have pet peeves about iPods or iPhones,
c) people who have pet peeves about people who have pet peeves about people who have pet peeves about iPods or iPhones,
d) and people who don't enjoy recursion.
