What ticks you off in randoms?

What really gets me seething in randoms is zoning in to a tank who immediately says "Great, another huntard." and proceeds to blast me a new one for my class choice. They always seem to tell me that they can do better dps than any 'huntard' and that I will be 'fail til i L2Play another class'. No matter how well I do, i.e perfect CC, pet management, and aggro control, I will get the blame when the tank makes a mistake while yelling at me to not make mistakes.
These guys never seem to wait for the healer to get mana and then slam me for ninja pulling. They never watch where they pull and start foaming at the mouth because their HotR aggro'd mobs that go straight for chewing the healer's face off and I pet tank them til they pick them up. And good Gods if I don't read their mind and trap the mob that they didn't mark.
All in all I guess tanks that think they are perfectly flawless while screwing up and immediately assume that any and every hunter is a huntard ticks me off.

I hate it when I zone into a dungeon in shadow and someone says "OMG HE'S AN SPRIEST" Without realizing the amazing ability I have to change to disc.
EVERYTIME.

Lol. I got that tonight on my druid. He's feral (cat)/feral (bear) specced and I zoned in with 3 other guildies in my cat spec because the queue popped before I had chance to switch. The PvP/agility geared warrior (really, wtf?) took a whole four seconds to note I didn't have
Thick Hide
and then went off on an almighty rant.
He decided to tank the first pack (Lost City hc) for me and died mid-Bladestorm while we watched with polite interest. Tbf, I was mid spec-change when he pulled so he'd have been dead before I got there even if I'd bothered to try and save him. Asshat.
Not a lot ticks me off in randoms these days, as I don't tend to do them without 4 guildies :D

You can say 'no' if you're not ready. If noone gives a response after a few seconds, I'll usually go.
It's funny, people in raids tend to forget they can hit 'not ready' on ready checks.

I que'd for a dungeon as a dps, got H Deadmines... ok so the original tank and healer didnt want to do it so they pulled and left. I come in with a healer and a tank (they were randoms from another realm not together). They say they are ready then healer goes.. "Oh btw im not a healer im dps" everyone one was like wtf? the he says I queue as healer to get a faster dungeon but dont heal.
Really? if you want to queue as a healer then have a spec for it, and dont just dps...

Things that annoys me in randoms ... Hmm.
Elitist-jerks.
Noobs, the bad kind that doesn't even WANT to learn, the ones who are just new are called Newbs.
Tanks who wait one minute between each pull, when everyone including healer is telling him to speed up a little.
Tanks who can't keep aggro off my pet; for the record I did not misdirect her, and I did not have growl on. My pet pulled a simple tank'n'spank boss off a warrior tank on pure DPS.
Tanks who can't keep aggro off me, or any other group member for that matter.
Healers who need to be at 100% mana at all times and manages to spend half of it on a single two-mob pack.
Healers who pull off the Tank, or ninjapull.
Healers who don't heal.
Healers who rather kick me than healing my pet; when the pet is pulling aggro off the tank, and when I am actually using Mend Pet with the glyph; meaning the pet did not need healing in the first place.
Classes with a rez who does not rez after a single/duo death. I don't expect them to rez after a full wipe, but if one or two people dies and the other's manage to kill whatever it is killing them, they should get a rez IMO, unless they died from obvious mechanics. And if it's a long run; like gnomergan for example, they should get it anyway.
DPS's who ninjapulls.
DPS's who do not follow marks.
DPS's who can't pull their weight. One thing if they're newbs, then I can live with it, but people pulling 2k DPS in Lost City of the Tol'Vir are either just autoattacking, randomly AFKing or does something terribly wrong. For the record my 85 hunter who can't make it into heroics pull 3.5k autoattacking without a pet ...
People who tell other people 'You should be in a heroic' when you point out in a polite way that their DPS is less than par and your own happen to be higher, especially if you want the JP.
People who break CC before it's meant to break.
DK's DeathGripping mobs when they are not the tank. Death Grip is also a 3 second taunt, and it gets very annoying, especially when I, as the DK tank, haven't reached the pack and have my Death Grip on CD.
Locks who kill themselves with Life Tap. Might have been a big or something, but he did kill himself.
Locks who expect me to heal them to full when they have lifetapped almost to death, in combat, and start flaming when I don't have time to put more than a renew on them. They're not supposed to take dmg anyway.
Hunter's who pull off the tank, ninjapulls, or when they simply run up next to you while you're waiting for healers mana and you see them starting to cast a steady shot.
Kitty's who stealth off and kill the endboss.
Rogue's who stealth off and kill the endboss.
Paladin tank's who can't put down a consecration to keep the mobs on them, or forget RF.
People who complain about your atonement-specced disc priest not healing ... I am healing, it's just that I do it through DPSing. I put a shield on the tank and spam Smite/Holy Fire until everything is dead. It works, okay, you don't have to flame me when my DPS is higher than yours, when I'm not even trying! Be nice, do your job, and when the end boss dies faster due to the priest who DPS's as a side job, smile and stroke your E-peen when DBM tells you we've got a new record.
And lastly, but the best!
People who que for something they are not to get a faster que, or classes who, once in the dungeon as DPS, asks if they can heal instead!
If I want to DPS, I que as DPS. If I want to heal, it's not so that someone else can heal instead, if I want to tank, it's the same.

Things that annoy me in a pug, people expecting perfection from randomness. If perfection was obtainable from randomness I would win the lotto every week.

PvE Scenario;
Myself.
Most of the time, anyways. You know that feeling when you've missed out on something that could've given you a MASSIVE headstart/boost/advantage/upper hand on the DPS meters(yes, i'm one of
them
) and you've lost it due to some stupid reason but in the end only yourself is to blame.
PvP Scenario;
When you get gang-ganked and the Belf Priest/Gnome Rogue stays to teabag you.
RP Scenario;
Random dude walks up to me and goes
;
HEY, I'M THE SON OF ILLIDAN AND SYLVANAS WAS MY DAD SO NOW Ioiesjfkasmj awkjialdfhf kekek bu!11
IRL;
MY WIFE.

Just finished an Uldaman run.The tank was obviously pretty new,but not doing nothing wrong,just pulling one pack of mobs at a time.Of course this wasn't good enough for the other
@#$%wads in the group,and within 2 minutes they started flaming him.He carried on for another 2 minutes when a vote to kick box appeared.I voted no,but the vote passed and he was removed from the group.We then sat around for 5 minutes waiting for another tank.
So next time your in the dungeon queue for 20 minutes plus,think about people like these that try their utmost to make everything as difficult as possible for newer players

People who pull when they aren't tanking. If they pull a mob, I'll just stand there and watch, and if they die, too bad. I'll pick up what they couldn't handle to save the rest of the group.

1 - Inpolite people that were raised with no manners.
2 - Giving new players or just bad players courtesy and taking the time to explain what to do and be helpful, then have them swear/act like a typical young teen towards you/thegroup.

When the tank and the healer start arguing in the middle of the boss fight. The healer stops healing, the tank dies, but we still kill the boss thanks to cooldowns and mirror images. The healer then ragequits because we "took the tank's side"
