Opening the flood gates of opionion....
I have nothing against vegetarians as such. But when the 2 people out of the 150 going to my wedding insist that we lay on a full vegetarian buffet as a condition of their attending the wedding, I get a little annoyed. (it's expensive to do that for just 2 people)
People who play their MP3/iPods too loudly and then give you the death stare when you complain.
Justice Eamon De Valera for legalising begging in Ireland and allowing every chancer to sit on a Dublin street corner with paper cup in hand asking you for change. And ruining things for the genuinely homeless as a result.
Chuggers.
Bible bashers. Especially the one who went apeshit on me when I told him I was god and that he must bow down and worship me.
People who take ages to put their money/cards in to their purse/wallet after completing a transaction in a shop, especially when there is a queue.
People who spray stuff on me in department stores.
People who insist on getting on the train at the same time as people are tying to get off.
Betterware catalogues. No I wont go to the bother of leaving it out for you.
People who don't comment their code and then claim there is no need to comment well written code. If I can't understand the code easily, then it isn't well written.

I didn't get past your second sentence
I think you should have the vegetarians as your main course at your wedding. Serve 'em right for being so fucking cheeky.

I'm a vegetarian
(well more pescetarian) and quite often vegetarians annoy me too. Went to a bbq last week and the only other veggie there insisted everyone leave a big space for her to put her meat free things on the bbq. Told me really loudly I was crap for eating fish then scoffed half a pack of crisps with meat products in. I on the other hand asked my host nicely and cooked my tuna steak in a frying pan then washed up and put everything away without making a fuss.
And don't get me started on the ones that say about not eat rabbits because they had one as a pet when they were five. Grrrr.

I told the veggies at our wedding
to have a fucking cheese sandwich and shut the fuck up. But then I was tired (and slightly pissed) and they were my much hated cousins who I had to invite because they're family.
Oh dear, you've set me off again.

commenting
I agree with the last one, but what's worse is wankers who comment their code, religiously, and use that as an excuse to write abysmal code.
My boss (for example) evidently hasn't heard of the novel concepts of "functions" or "subroutines". and pretty much writes everything inline in main() (or whereever the extra code needs to go). Instead of creating a function called "foo", he will place a comment "/*foo*/" at the top of a massive chunk of code. Don't get me started on the fact that we never use C, so stupid little single-line comments like that should be "//".
