The older I get, the more cranky I become
I have a new pet peeve.
I find that I simply can not stand when people SLAM THE MICROWAVE DOOR.
What is it about this particular appliance that encourages people to slap it closed? Why can they not grab the handle and close the door softly?
This has driven me crazy at home for years. In fact, I can't think of any one phrase I use more often than, "Quit slamming that door!" But now I've discovered that people at work do it too. It's a national craze. Of epidemic proportions. Please do your part to help Save the Microwaves: Zap it, don't slap it!
I know how you feel. It truly annoys me as well. You are not alone!

You'd hate my work. The microwave here doesn't work unless you slam the door, honest. The timer counts down but no actual radiation is zapped. All you hear at lunch time is the slamming of the door and the occassional, "Hey! Who ate my food?"
