Parents that turn their kids loose on horses at a show and said kids run around all through the warm up area cutting people off and almost causing wrecks.
People that want to "buy a young horse for their kid to grow up with".
Constant ground complainers

Being rude to wait staff or anyone in the public service industry
RUDENESS in general
 
I personally don't like people overly hollering for me during a run. The occasional "hurry!" or "its up!" or "Go on!" is okay but it irks me when there are 10 people screaming like dying goats every inch of the way.

i hate draging noisey windshield wiper blades..... 

My husband used to work with a guy who would have his windshield wipers on when there was NO rain in sight. When my husband asked him about it, he said "just in case" or sometimes I guess he wouldn't even realize they were on. He was odd for sure.

Super bright headlights.
...and you only need two! When you’re around other cars, turn off that second set of lights!

Little cars getting gas at the only diesel pump when there are open gas pumps, then leaving thier car in front of the diesel pump while they go in to the gas station to pee and get a drink and a hot dog.

 Since you said 'silly'....  my family says I have a ton of them but here are a few...
?dishtowels thrown wadded up on the counter instead of hung up
?feed room not left like it was found
?any gate left open, whether it is holding any animals in or not
?someone handling my Dr. Pepper harshly and making it go flat
?'stage-y' candid photos - does your hand live on that hip?  Is that 'oh' look of surprise really true?  Every time?

Horses that go to shows and scream their heads off. Ugh, something about hearing the same horse over and over and over is just like nails on chalkboard for me.

Horses that paw when tied and destroy the ground under where they are standing.

Recently a horse sale ad came across my Facebook dash and they spelled saddle "sattle." They also spelled mane as main. The final nail in the coffin was the lack of punctuation. It made my eyes bleed.
