Ever wonder why certain tiny behaviors can trigger such a disproportionate emotional response? From the person who places their phone face-down during your conversation (a sign of respect or subtle disrespect?) to the maddening habit of leaving dishes beside rather than in the sink, this episode dives deep into the psychology of pet peeves.
We explore whether these seemingly minor irritations might actually reveal something significant about our personalities and values. Are you bothered by people who take forever at the checkout counter? Can't stand being told to "smile"? Driven to rage by those who don't return shopping carts? You're not alone, and your reactions might be more meaningful than you realize.
Through personal confessions, philosophical questions, and plenty of laughs, we examine how our pet peeves develop over time and whether they're innate or shaped by our environment. We debate which annoying behaviors are truly worth getting upset about and which ones we should probably let go. The conversation takes surprising turns as we realize how many little things actually drive us crazy - from noisy chewers to chronic interrupters, restaurant complainers to bathroom phone-talkers.
Join us for this surprisingly revealing exploration of human behavior and share your own pet peeves with us! Are we all just being dramatic, or do these small irritations actually serve as windows into our souls? The answer might surprise you.

dish, a cup, cutlery, whateverthe hell it is, beside the sink
as opposed to in the sink.

It's literally two inches away.
Just put the cup in the sink or, better yet, in the dishwasher,
which is equally two inchesaway.
Just put the cup in the sink or, better yet, in the dishwasher,
which is equally two inchesaway.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
My gosh, I forget what it's like having a
dishwasher.
I guess we could say that it'senergy being wasted, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
On a really stupid chick.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Where energy could be put into something else.
I guess, yeah, I guess I get it, but I mean it is what it is
right.
Stuff that bothers us bothersus and you know some of it we
can control or we can try.
Yeah, I really struggle withstuff being dirty and like
(03:01):
clunked up.
It's gotten to the point where,like I'm so sick, like I've just
seen what my car looks likeyeah like like you know, when
you hit rock bottom andsomething, it's like so and and
and, but it's, it's, it'schanged into everything.
So everything like like, forexample, when you cook your food
(03:26):
, when it's ready on the plate,ready to eat, do you wash your
stuff first and then sit downand eat, or do you eat and then
go wash your stuff?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Like the pots, the pans, I understand I eat first
and then go clean up Like I'm aclean as you go kind of person.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
But that bothers you.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Well, now.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's to the point where I typically not all the
time Depends how hungry I am,but but most of the time I'll
clean everything.
Even if my food is sittingthere, I'll clean everything.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
You've got food, cold food.
I know Cold food.
I know that's crazy.
Okay, what's something smallthat instantly pisses you off?
Why?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Why, why?
Question yeah why that my kids?
I love them to death.
And I've been working on thisbecause I understand now that
the why is a subconscious, likeattack on me, so I understand
that they're.
You know that that's not whatit is, but why is?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
by far as a parent, I mean, how can it not?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
be a pet peeve.
I'm sure most parents is likewhy?
Oh my god, if we could get oneword out of the vocab, that
would be the word why?
Um?
Because, oh my gosh, I want tokill those kids sometimes.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I love them, love them, but yeah, no, I agree, I
that's, that's a good oneactually, but you know what's
even worse?
What is the second, third,third and fourth wife?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, which pet peeve of yours has gotten worse as
you've gotten older.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
My noise tolerance, hmm, drives me nuts, just
unnecessary noise.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
What's the most overrated pet peeve, something
people complain about too much.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Something people complain about too much.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I got a good one for this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Okay, go, no, no, no, you go, okay.
Um gosh, I thought I was goingto get out of that one.
What do they complain about toomuch?
I guess like, maybe cutting inline, like you hear about that
all the time, right, so I don'twant to say it's overrated, but
it's certainly much beloved petpeeve of a lot of people, maybe.
(05:56):
Yeah, what was the one that youwere going to say?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I think, the complainers when it comes to
restaurants.
I think people have taken thisto a like to a place that's like
hey, you need to relax.
You know, uh, you know, don'tcome.
Uh, you know a paragraph thislong about how they had to wait
40 minutes for this or for that.
It's like are you with whoeveryou're with?
(06:21):
Is the person that miserablethat you can't talk?
Sit there, have a goodconversation, wait for your damn
food.
Understand that these peopleare probably understaffed,
working like fucking crazy andlike calm down.
There are some that are likeokay, yeah, that's a little
warranted.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Like okay, yeah, that's a little warranted, yeah
that's a little warranted, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I just find, though, that it's just automatic now oh
geez, some people just like tocomplain, to complain but that's
what I mean, like and, and Ifind that restaurants you know
have been like getting the shitunder the stick for that, but I
feel like restaurants usually do.
I just find that people need tokind of relax a bit.
(07:01):
I'll give you an example.
I used to think that it wasbecause I didn't have a backbone
.
Now I realize that there's alot of power to what I used to
do.
I don't do it as much anymore,but I should, I would order I
don't know chicken.
Okay.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
They would come with a medium rare steak, all right,
and I would eat it Like, or viceversa.
You know, I would ask for amedium rare steak and I would
get like a chicken, you know,like chicken Alfredo or whatever
, really, and I would eat it.
I would just, you know, like itdidn't bother me, like it, okay
(07:41):
, yeah, sure, I'll have thisinstead, whatever I think that's
a rarity, josh because if Iordered a steak and I got
fucking chicken.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I'd be like where the fuck's my steak instead of
complaining, I just wouldn't goback to that place again oh
really, you know what I mean?
It's kind of like okay, well, Ididn't have the best experience
here, this, this, this, so I'mnot.
I'm just not gonna go back thenand right, yeah, yeah, I get it
.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
And to you that's like an like a good or bad
experience, like you got thechicken instead of like, to you
that's like it's a badexperience well, the thing is, I
would say something I would notsay something.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I would, in that specific scenario, in terms of I
ordered something.
Clearly you know, when youorder something, it's because
you want it, right, like.
But it's more like bad service,I think.
But I don't complain about itto them, right, I just don't go
back.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, that I understand though.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
But that's my personality.
What's a pet peeve that you'vehad since childhood?
That's like never going awayliars.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I just you know, I've , I've, I can't, I'm for sure
they just make me sick.
You since childhood.
I can't, that's a pet peeve.
For sure.
They just make me sick, do youSince childhood?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I'm getting sweaty just thinking about it.
People telling you to fuckingsmile.
I will smack the next personthat tells me smile.
When you're just sitting there,nobody's interacting with you.
You're not interacting withanybody.
You're literally.
I could be sitting at my deskon my computer typing and
(09:28):
somebody will come and say areyou okay smile oh fuck it, ain't
that shit we are clearlysiblings it just it boils my
blood and I'm like you know,like what do they call it?
Speaker 1 (09:41):
the resting bitch face or whatever.
Yes, it's like whatever youknow which I have it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I have resting bitch face like I mean whatever, but
fucking stop.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
And it's always many oh really, huh see that the
times that it's been said to meit's always women oh,
interesting, it's always men andI just like, I'm just like, get
the fuck out of here all right.
So what's something that annoysyou?
But you do it too interrupting.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I'm gonna steal yours because I I think that was
pretty a pretty good one.
I'm horrible at interruptingpeople yeah, I think it's
passion.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Though, too, don't be so hard on yourself.
I feel like if there's passioninvolved in what is being said,
people will kind of interrupt alittle bit more.
I agree, based off that, butyeah, I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I agree.
I think there's a time and aplace for it.
Yeah, okay, josh.
Ugh Okay, josh.
Do you think pet peevesactually say something deeper
about a person's personality?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I don't know.
I mean maybe, maybe a littlebit, I think it depends.
I think it's part of yourpersonality.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Let's talk about complaining.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Okay, complainers People that are always
complaining about everything.
That's part of theirpersonality, Right oh?
Speaker 1 (11:22):
right, like energy, like negative, like they just
complain all the time.
That's true.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
What about like okay, uh, people cutting, always
cutting off, waiting to the lastminute to get into the fucking
lane that you need to get into,right, are they aggressive?
Are they?
Are they're more aggressive,like I'm not saying listen, I
cut people off, sometimes tooright, sometimes it happens, but
I'm not always doing that.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
You see those drivers right that are just like every
day they do.
Yes right.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
So does that mean they're aggressive?
Is that part of theirpersonality?
Like they have no patience, I'mnumber one, get me, let me in
there.
Kind of shit, right?
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't know so I think that, yes, pet peeves
probably has some personalityinfluence.
Yeah, okay, be real.
What's something you do thatwould annoy people?
And you've already usedinterrupted, so you can't use
(12:28):
that one.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
That's fine.
I've actually come up withsomething.
I have this thing where I'mlike right behind you cleaning
up after.
You know, like I, in order forme to like you with your fucking
(12:49):
dinner dishes, okay, in orderfor me to, everything has to be
just so before I can sit downand eat dinner, or, you know, I
need to make sure that thesethings are taken care of or
cleaned up after or tidied upbefore I can sit down to relax,
or tidied up before I can sitdown to relax, and sometimes,
(13:12):
depending on my mood, I can geta little aggressive with it and
I'm sure that my kids and Jameswould say hands down, that's one
of the things that bugs themabout me.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just the first thing off my head.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
It's good.
Honest with my head, it's good.
Honest with yourself, it's good.
Do you think that pet peevesare like like develop over time,
or do you think we're born withthem, like it's in our dna,
kind of thing?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
I think it's about who you surround yourself with
and how that, you know, takesfold so then, do you think it
has something to do with howyou're raised?
Well, I think it has a littlebit to do with everything.
I feel like, no, you're notborn with it okay, it's
something that is createdthrough the friendships and and
(14:05):
social interactions and so on,and then eventually, at some
point, you figure out what youlike, what you don't like.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
So it's almost like a product of your environment,
maybe.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I think so Okay.
That's a good one, that's, youknow, josh Taylor PhD.
Call me Dr Taylor, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
All right, this or that section you ready.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
This or that, let's do it this or that.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Okay, people who FaceTime in public or people who
blast music on their speakers.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Which one would I prefer?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yeah, like which would you prefer?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
I'd probably prefer the blasting music, because the
FaceTime thing really annoys me.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I agree, I agree, but you know what I'd rather take
FaceTime.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Really.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah, because what if it's?
Because at least you can listento a conversation, no matter
how dumb, and kind of laughabout it if you want to, if you
don't like the fucking music.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Well, I'm not in the car though.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
You mean and music?
Well, I'm not in the car,though.
Speaker 1 (15:11):

on the bus, or what if you'restanding?
You know?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
what I mean, true, okay, okay fair, fair, okay, go

Speaker 1 (15:15):
People who use way too much perfume or cologne, or
people who don't wear deodorantI would rather have too much
cologne.

What about you?
Speaker 1 (15:28):
uh, you know, there's a couple of those perfumes, man
, that are like intoxicating men, like you know, like I.

deodorant.

somebody leave dishes in thesink to soak, or would you
rather go to grab some juice andonly have this much in it, like
somebody left only this muchfucking juice.

Speaker 1 (16:07):

I love them, love them, but yeah, no, I agree, I
that's, that's a good oneactually, but you know what's
even worse?
What is the second, third,third and fourth wife?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Yeah, which pet peeve of yours has gotten worse as
you've gotten older.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
My noise tolerance, hmm, drives me nuts, just
unnecessary noise.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
What's the most overrated pet peeve, something
people complain about too much.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Something people complain about too much.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I got a good one for this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Okay, go, no, no, no, you go, okay.
Um gosh, I thought I was goingto get out of that one.
What do they complain about toomuch?
I guess like, maybe cutting inline, like you hear about that
all the time, right, so I don'twant to say it's overrated, but
it's certainly much beloved petpeeve of a lot of people, maybe.
(05:56):
Yeah, what was the one that youwere going to say?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I think, the complainers when it comes to
restaurants.
I think people have taken thisto a like to a place that's like
hey, you need to relax.
You know, uh, you know, don'tcome.
Uh, you know a paragraph thislong about how they had to wait
40 minutes for this or for that.
It's like are you with whoeveryou're with?
(06:21):
Is the person that miserablethat you can't talk?
Sit there, have a goodconversation, wait for your damn
food.
Understand that these peopleare probably understaffed,
working like fucking crazy andlike calm down.
There are some that are likeokay, yeah, that's a little
warranted.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Like okay, yeah, that's a little warranted, yeah
that's a little warranted, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I just find, though, that it's just automatic now oh
geez, some people just like tocomplain, to complain but that's
what I mean, like and, and Ifind that restaurants you know
have been like getting the shitunder the stick for that, but I
feel like restaurants usually do.
I just find that people need tokind of relax a bit.
(07:01):
I'll give you an example.
I used to think that it wasbecause I didn't have a backbone
.
Now I realize that there's alot of power to what I used to
do.
I don't do it as much anymore,but I should, I would order I
don't know chicken.
Okay.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
They would come with a medium rare steak, all right,
and I would eat it Like, or viceversa.
You know, I would ask for amedium rare steak and I would
get like a chicken, you know,like chicken Alfredo or whatever
, really, and I would eat it.
I would just, you know, like itdidn't bother me, like it, okay
(07:41):
, yeah, sure, I'll have thisinstead, whatever I think that's
a rarity, josh because if Iordered a steak and I got
fucking chicken.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I'd be like where the fuck's my steak instead of
complaining, I just wouldn't goback to that place again oh
really, you know what I mean?
It's kind of like okay, well, Ididn't have the best experience
here, this, this, this, so I'mnot.
I'm just not gonna go back thenand right, yeah, yeah, I get it
.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
And to you that's like an like a good or bad
experience, like you got thechicken instead of like, to you
that's like it's a badexperience well, the thing is, I
would say something I would notsay something.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I would, in that specific scenario, in terms of I
ordered something.
Clearly you know, when youorder something, it's because
you want it, right, like.
But it's more like bad service,I think.
But I don't complain about itto them, right, I just don't go
back.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, that I understand though.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
But that's my personality.
What's a pet peeve that you'vehad since childhood?
That's like never going awayliars.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I just you know, I've , I've, I can't, I'm for sure
they just make me sick.
You since childhood.
I can't, that's a pet peeve.
For sure.
They just make me sick, do youSince childhood?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I'm getting sweaty just thinking about it.
People telling you to fuckingsmile.
I will smack the next personthat tells me smile.
When you're just sitting there,nobody's interacting with you.
You're not interacting withanybody.
You're literally.
I could be sitting at my deskon my computer typing and
(09:28):
somebody will come and say areyou okay smile oh fuck it, ain't
that shit we are clearlysiblings it just it boils my
blood and I'm like you know,like what do they call it?
Speaker 1 (09:41):
the resting bitch face or whatever.
Yes, it's like whatever youknow which I have it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I have resting bitch face like I mean whatever, but
fucking stop.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
And it's always many oh really, huh see that the
times that it's been said to meit's always women oh,
interesting, it's always men andI just like, I'm just like, get
the fuck out of here all right.
So what's something that annoysyou?
But you do it too interrupting.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I'm gonna steal yours because I I think that was
pretty a pretty good one.
I'm horrible at interruptingpeople yeah, I think it's
passion.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Though, too, don't be so hard on yourself.
I feel like if there's passioninvolved in what is being said,
people will kind of interrupt alittle bit more.
I agree, based off that, butyeah, I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I agree.
I think there's a time and aplace for it.
Yeah, okay, josh.
Ugh Okay, josh.
Do you think pet peevesactually say something deeper
about a person's personality?
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I don't know.
I mean maybe, maybe a littlebit, I think it depends.
I think it's part of yourpersonality.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Let's talk about complaining.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Okay, complainers People that are always
complaining about everything.
That's part of theirpersonality, Right oh?
Speaker 1 (11:22):
right, like energy, like negative, like they just
complain all the time.
That's true.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
What about like okay, uh, people cutting, always
cutting off, waiting to the lastminute to get into the fucking
lane that you need to get into,right, are they aggressive?
Are they?
Are they're more aggressive,like I'm not saying listen, I
cut people off, sometimes tooright, sometimes it happens, but
I'm not always doing that.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
You see those drivers right that are just like every
day they do.
Yes right.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
So does that mean they're aggressive?
Is that part of theirpersonality?
Like they have no patience, I'mnumber one, get me, let me in
there.
Kind of shit, right?
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't know so I think that, yes, pet peeves
probably has some personalityinfluence.
Yeah, okay, be real.
What's something you do thatwould annoy people?
And you've already usedinterrupted, so you can't use
(12:28):
that one.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
That's fine.
I've actually come up withsomething.
I have this thing where I'mlike right behind you cleaning
up after.
You know, like I, in order forme to like you with your fucking
(12:49):
dinner dishes, okay, in orderfor me to, everything has to be
just so before I can sit downand eat dinner, or, you know, I
need to make sure that thesethings are taken care of or
cleaned up after or tidied upbefore I can sit down to relax,
or tidied up before I can sitdown to relax, and sometimes,
(13:12):
depending on my mood, I can geta little aggressive with it and
I'm sure that my kids and Jameswould say hands down, that's one
of the things that bugs themabout me.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just the first thing off my head.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
It's good.
Honest with my head, it's good.
Honest with yourself, it's good.
Do you think that pet peevesare like like develop over time,
or do you think we're born withthem, like it's in our dna,
kind of thing?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
I think it's about who you surround yourself with
and how that, you know, takesfold so then, do you think it
has something to do with howyou're raised?
Well, I think it has a littlebit to do with everything.
I feel like, no, you're notborn with it okay, it's
something that is createdthrough the friendships and and
(14:05):
social interactions and so on,and then eventually, at some
point, you figure out what youlike, what you don't like.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
So it's almost like a product of your environment,
maybe.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I think so Okay.
That's a good one, that's, youknow, josh Taylor PhD.
Call me Dr Taylor, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
All right, this or that section you ready.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
This or that, let's do it this or that.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Okay, people who FaceTime in public or people who
blast music on their speakers.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Which one would I prefer?
Speaker 2 (14:43):

FaceTime thing really annoys me.

FaceTime.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Really.
Speaker 2 (14:57):

Because at least you can listento a conversation, no matter
how dumb, and kind of laughabout it if you want to, if you
don't like the fucking music.
