- insensitivity
- willful ignorance
- theoretical conversation
- loudness when i'm in the mood to be quiet
- being jealous when i want to be happy for someone else but just can't
- crying when i really don't want to (the more i feel tears coming on, the angrier i get)
 
Not sure if this is exactly a pet peeve, but i'd put it in an isfp rant thread if there was one. (didn't think it was worth starting one for this).

I'm trying to apply to teach more online college music courses, and they all want extensive essays about various topics related to teaching. In some ways I'm a good writer - primarily distilling concepts in sonically pleasing ways for poetry. These analytical, philosophical, present your image, etc. types of essays almost make me break out in hives. I can come up with 40 words, but they want 200-1000. I can't expand concepts like that. What am I going to do? I managed to get graduate degrees in creative fields with good grades, and I'm good at math, etc., but this sort of thing is so incredibly stressful for me. I seriously need more jobs so I HAVE to do it right.

I have had inverse problem. English teacher wanted us to write a review of movie, so I wrote around 600 words. Little did I know that only 180 were needed and 220 was max. This quality has been haunting me forever even to some degree at exams in school, which I'm taking now.
 
Here's a pet peave...
If I'm such a "cute little bunny", then why do you keep taking my f^*#ing money?! :disillusionment:
