Quiet please

Patience is a virtue.
Unfortunately it’s not my virtue.
Oh, I can be patient, when I’m waiting in a queue (yes I’m still saying queue) or when I’ve asked a server for a check or when I’m doing something boring like waiting for my laundry to dry.
What I don’t have much patience for is people. I’m the first to say it, I’m easily annoyed. If you know me at all, you know this is true. I want to be all zen-like and not be bothered and have the little things just roll right off my back, but unfortunately, I tend to get irrationally upset about really stupid things.
What am I talking about? My biggest pet peeve. It’s incredibly stupid, most people don’t understand it, but it annoys the crap out of me.
Public whistling.
Walking down the street, enjoying your day? The sun is out, it’s Saturday, life is good. So you decide to whistle a little tune? Don’t do it. It drives me crazy. I don’t know why, but it provokes some kind of indescribable rage. I guess it’s something about other people imposing their happiness on me. I don’t know. I can’t explain it, but I hate it.
In all honesty, I just plain can’t stand whistling in general. Even in private. Sometimes John starts just to bug me. But it usually doesn’t last long because he feels my wrath.
So yeah, stupid pet peeve, but it’s my pet peeve I guess. I know it’s completely ridiculous, but it’s mine all the same. So I hate public whistling. What do other people hate? This site, Peeve Pile, has some pretty entertaining pet peeves.
What are yours?
