I LOVE asking what ifs... making me an uke will not slow my what if questions. Albeit I do try limit them, and haven't asked any in a while... Also important not to interrupt the instructor.
One of my pet peeves, blocking at the wrist. Doesnt piss me off or anything but don't like it. I always go for the forearm. Block my wrist and my elbow whips around for the win, but I'm not supposed to do that since were training, plus I don't like hurting people anyways. Except for occasional bruises...
One of my pet peeves when teaching kids, immaturity. Kids acting up... the obvious solution is have them sit out for a bit but I hate being that guy even when its completely justified.
I don't think I've ever met immature adults... I have no doubt they exist but I haven't seen any in my dojo.
Honestly... it's hard to think about pet peeves. It bothers me a little when you tell people to kiai loud and they don't... or just outright don't kiai at all. I don't think I have much in the way of actual pet peeves.
