People who think lose and its derivatives are spelled with two O's may be my biggest pet peeve.
Poor grammar all around is certainly up there.
Saying "noo-kyoo-lur".
People claiming that pseudoscience works or saying that we should consider the possibility of its working just to say that they have an "open mind". <-- A HUGE button for me.

Surely, Sec, you can do better than that.
Come to think of it, now that Mr.Vicchio, Bob Dobbs and other major offenders are off the air, the spelling on Volconvo has improved somewhat. If they come back, they'll loose no time in retrurning to the status quo ante.

People who confuse the words affect and effect. I can't be bothered explaining it, it just pisses me off.
People who come in 10 minutes before close to open an account.
I WANT TO GO HOME! *cries*
Bosses who make you stand around for ten minutes even though there is NOT one frigging thing left to do before your shift ends. Either gimme something to do or let me go god damn it, you can dock me 10 minutes wages if it's that bloody important!

I ended up staying 20 minutes late. I'm lucky I made the 5:32 bus otherwise I would have had to cool my heels in 100 degrees and 95% humidity.

Mass-produced grammatical errors.
*hem* People who use an apostrophe to make something plural *hem*
Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. -- Song 8:6
people who eat too much garlic and don't have the decency to chew gum afterwards..
People who actually smoke clove cigarettes. What the hell is that all about? Tobacco is supposed to stink, so stink like the rest of us, ya incense-snortin' absinthe-drinkin' wannabes!
Angst, ennui, and weltschmertz.
People who wear black like it's a religion. I like black; I wear black clothes. But when everything you wear, down to your makeup, jewelry, watch, shoes, socks, underwear, coat, scarf, mittens, earmuffs, noseplugs and Chinese fingertrap are all jet black, you need a hobby. Or an eye exam.
