"Worse are drivers who flip a lighted butt out their car window. And even more infuriating are the drivers who do this in the summertime, when it hasn't rained for months and the grass is tinder dry and grassfires are a huge danger. These are criminally careless slobs who should be charged with arson."

Amen, TOM K, Amen.
These people should have to turn in 20 butts before they can buy 20 more.

Lots of things chap me.
Poor grammar--namely apostrophe abuse/misuse and not using the correct form of a word such as "your" and "you're" and "there," "they're," or "their", or knowing if you are using a plural or possessive. So many intelligent people make themselves look less so by not taking the care to such detail.
That's a minor peeve.
The real one...I had "work" tonight. For the most part, I "work" during religious services. Today was one such day.
My husband was at home, off work today. I got a message at 7:30, about when I'd be leaving, that we are out of cat food and "What's for dinner?" The church is about an hour from the house.
REALLY? Two and a half grown people in this house and you will wait TWO HOURS for me to come feed you (drive time home, store time, cook time) because you are "too tired" to even look to see what's here? THAT'S what chaps me! There are very few instances a year that I do not make a good meal for them regardless of how long or busy MY day was. Many times even when I am not here, I leave something good in the crock pot or on oven timer for them. They whine about why they can't have fast food, which is pretty much forbidden around here but allowable when I am gone and didn't leave something for them, or something like that. A night like tonight would have been a good fast food candidate for them...but they were too lazy. And, there were good leftovers last night but the dishwashers didn't do their jobs and it was left out. NO REASON for me to have to get them food. Lazy, spoiled, inconsiderate behavior is what chaps me, and this is the biggest example there is.
I should have fed my cats the meatloaf and made the Mr. eat Iams.

I have no problem with someone asking, firmly, for their price. It just seems polite. The opposite is what chaps me, when I go to a gun show and see a table full of guns with NO prices listed. Are their prices so high that they're ashamed to list them? That usually seems to be the case when I bother to ask. It's extremely rare to find out that the price is low or even fair – it's usually ridiculously high.
Off the subject of guns and onto slob behavior, what chaps me is smokers who seem to think that the world is their ashtray and throw their butts on the ground. Would they do the same with a candy wrapper, or a used Kleenex? Probably not but they think nothing of flicking away a butt.
Worse are drivers who do this and flip a lighted butt out their car window. I can understand not wanting the filthy, stinking thing in their car, but then why did they light it in the first place? And even more infuriating are the drivers who do this in the summertime, when it hasn't rained for months and the grass is tinder dry and grassfires are a huge danger. These are criminally careless slobs who should be charged with arson.
Yeah, I can see some vitriol coming out in this thread….
Me too....

What chaps me is anyone who thinks they work harder, had a tougher life, have worse luck, or any other excuse to act sub-human. Bob Marley said it best, "Everyman thinks his burden is the heaviest." Bet you never thought you'd see Marley quoted on a gun site. He carried.
Rude and obnoxious people calling others rude and obnoxious. 
Maybe they should familiarize themselves with the terms of service they agreed to.

The biggest thing that gets me is tailgaters.
If they want to risk their lives getting to wherever they are going faster than the speed limit allows so be it. Don't risk mine, or my family's, life / lives in the process.
The only thing worse than a tailgater, is a tailgater talking on the phone or texting......

I saw you go by the other day. I was hanging out in the plant section in my Ghillie suit.

For some reason one of my biggest chaps is those who don't drive with their lights on in inclement weather. It's state law here. Those people are very hard to see in dim light when raining or snowing. Then there are those who just turn on the parking lights, like pulling or turning the light switch one more click would cause them to pull a muscle or something.
What really chaps me is the previous lack of these threads!! Some of these are flappin' hilarious!! A little more on the serious side is this-------I own a Harley motorcycle..........I HATE WINTER!!!!, err, 'scuse me...Winter really chaps me...................
This REALLY chaps me.........Part II---people that drive fast, accelerate hard, gun it at every opportunity then don't run the A/C when it is 98 degrees out because they don't want to use the extra gas the A/C makes the car burn................!! Seriously??!!

What chaps me is the people who come out of the convienant store next door and throw all their trash in my yard. Somebody didn't like their hotdog and smeared it on the side of my mailbox. Once a homeless lady crashed her shopping cart into my mailbox because she was texting.

Look at the bright side, all that free food your gobbling up. You should be grateful.

Sagging (below the buttox) pants are another. I wish they would try that in Latin America they'd be dragged into an alley and worn out by a line of guys.

I can describe pretty much everything in life that chaps me in one statement; Rude, inconsiderate people.
