From Wikipedia:

Yes, these things annoy me, but not so much that I am miserable on my ride. More of a, "There's another one," eyes-rolling kind of attitude. I started this thread out of curiousity if other commuters had similar experiences and to see what annoyances others deal with.

Misery loves company.
Quite the contrary, mgw4jc. The pet peeves expressed on this forum are altogether inconsequential as far as I’m concerned. I merely offered a valid observation––“food for thought” if you will––via the numerous “pet peeves” conveyed by forum members, which in turn raised a rhetorical question in my mind as to “why they waste precious time complaining about that which they lack the ability to control or alter, but in reality should expect to occur when encountering endlessly imperfect humans.” No answer is necessary, as the topic bears no matter of importance and my dwindling time is too precious to waste on such matters.

But you are correct, misery loves company and that's why so many have shared their pet peeves.
