What is your pet peeve?
SNACKING AT THE CINEMA
People who talk or munch on snacks loudly while at a movie. Bavya Pressad
MASK-LESS
People refusing to wear masks and flouting social distancing norms has become my pet peeve. Dwisha Baviskar
FLURRY OF FORWARDS
My pet peeve is that in spite of constant reminders that no forwards are allowed in our whatsapp group, members do it and say ‘sorry’. Rajeswari Matam
QUEUE-JUMP
When I come across people who cut queues and think it’s absolutely OK to do so, and then look irate instead of being apologetic when told they are in the wrong. Sheeba Jojo
THE WRONG SIDE
People standing on the left side while using the metro escalator when it specifically says walk on left and stand on right. Disha Baldawa
FAKE ACCENTS
People who show off or fake an accent. I also dislike it when someone tells me to do something repeatedly that I’d anyway be doing. Ayman M. Iqbal
UNHEALTHY HABITS
I am health conscious and am careful of what I eat, but my husband is just the opposite. This is my one peeve. Meghana Prabhu
SOCIAL MEDIA
Spouses wishing each other effusively on social media, while being under the same roof. I can digest it if it’s in jest but this is done rather seriously. Jaya Mahalingam
LOUD CHEWERS
People who chew gum really loud while talking – it really annoys me. Anahita Daruwala
CRACKING KNUCKLES
Someone cracking their knuckles and making sounds while eating. Fatima Kauser
SNEEZING WITHOUT COVERING FACE
People who sneeze without covering their nose. Clicking pens is another. Anto Joseph
LATECOMERS
I get annoyed at some of my friends who always turn up late for all occasions. It also annoys me greatly when they ridicule people who are punctual. Jayanthi Mahesh
