Littering. I hate people that throw even the smallest sweet wrapper on the floor. I think it says a lot about your character, all of it bad.

BE WARNED!!!!  >:(

Cigarette butts included, right?

You would enjoy the book Sick Puppy by Carl Hiaasen. The main character goes off on more than a few litterbugs.

HA! I havnt read it yet, but a mate lent it to me a couple of weeks ago. "You'll love it", he said. Judging from the blurb on amazon it looks like something i could empathise with.

Oh, me too.  I am amazed when I see people casually tossing a bag of fast food trash or a drink cup out of the car.  Or when they are walking down the street--somehow that seems even more amazing to me.  I see it a lot around here but it still shocks me.  I guess they need to bring back that crying Indian guy ad.

When people I intensely dislike in real life, and try to talk to as little as possible when I do have to have anything to do with them, friend me on Facebook.

i actually kinda like litter strewn about here and there - reminder of all the unnecessary consumption we participate in.

but i don't like it when people don't pick up their dog's shit

Yeah!  and dogs have an excuse to see the world as their toilet, cuz it is!  People can't because they invented actual toilets!

the world is some people's ash tray

Well once my city outlawed smoking in practically every building in town except one, and my apartment complex refused to have an outdoor trash receptacle of any kind, my choices became limited. I guess smoking bans in bars is my pet peeve, but when there is a ashtray or trash can nearby, I'll always make the effort. I know cigarette butts on the ground aren't pretty.
