I'm the same way. So here's what you do. You pull in front of them and slow down to the point where they are getting fairly close to you, almost tailgating, THEN you turn on your wiper fluid for like 5 minutes. Sure, it might waste a lot of fluid, but you're causing them a nice annoyance as well. This works GREAT on people who drive like jackasses and obviously care a lot for their car because it REALLY messes up a freshly washed ride.
Schneed and I are great antagonizers.
LOL I never thought of that one, that's a sweet move. Mental note for me tonight when driving home on the Roosevelt Boulevard. That wiper fluid is cheap as dirt anyway, so no big loss.

My biggest and latest pet peeve is these Blue Tooth wearing Mother Fu**ers!! They walk around Mall’s and Supermarkets like they’re fu**ing Robocop or something. You can’t tell if they are talking to you or some a**hole on the phone. If your driving then that’s acceptable, but if you’re in a public place, take the fu**ing thing out of your ear a**hole!!
Haha, I hate this one too. I was out to dinner one night with my wife, and we were congregating around the hostess area waiting to be seated. And this guy standing next to me had one of those things on and he was talking on the phone to somebody, pretty loudly too. And since my wife and I were basically stuck right there while we were waiting for our table, we were basically a captive audience. So I tried to ignore it, but it got to be too much.
I pretended like I didn't know he was on the phone, and I started having the conversation with him. He said to the person on the other end of the line, "So did you go out last night or did you just hang in?"
I said in full voice, "Oh, hey, how's it goin. Well I was going to go out, but I ate chinese for dinner and I was dealing with some gas, so I decided I'd just hang in."
He shot a look and ignored me.
He then said to the person on the other end of the line, "Oh that sucks." Which jived perfectly with what I had said to him. So I said "Yeah, see but I should know better. Chinese food always does that to me, but I still order it. That's kind of what I get."
He gets annoyed, turns to me and says "dude I'm on the phone, I'm not talking to you. I don't want to hear your problems."
So I said "OK good, because nobody here wants to be a part of your phone conversation either. Maybe you should take it outside or hang up."
Then the hostess called me and my wife for our table, and I got to make a dramatic exit.

Did you get a standing O? Because I certainly would have at least started one...

Let me know how it works... it's MONEY.

classic move, I like to pull that one myself
One peeve that I've developed lately is people who are big time slackers at work. I'm not saying I'm Mr. 110% effort at work, but I get my damn job done everyday. I hate the slackers who are constantly socializing and then wonder why they fall behind, and then want to blame management for an "unreasonable workload". Do your work, stop hanging out and talking for hours on end, and just maybe you'll get your work done on time!

My pet peeve is people who have too many pet peeves. ;)
My Pet Peeve is Sheriff Gonna Getcha.
Eating dinner at a nice expensive restaurant, and someone two tables over felt compelled to do the same, EXCEPT, they brought the little one with them, who screamed continously!
I AX you........that ain't right???
My new pet peeve is people who think they are above having pet peeves.
I'm WAY to busy working to have time for Pet Peeves
