I can see where the pinchers wouldn't work too well in a plush carpet,
but how abotu some duct tape on the end of a stick?  something like an
old golf club, put a loop of tape on the head, sticky side out.  If
you has 2 labrador retrievers and 3 cats it won't last for many
recoveries before you have to turn the tape so the hairy side is up,
and the sticky side is down.

   It can be anything. Examples include but are not limited to:
quality, Lego name misuse, stepping on bricks, cost,
availability, not introducing sets all over at the same time(Bionicle)
or whatever else you can think of.

   I'll start out with my Lego pet peeve: dropping an element:
I'm in a wheelchair, my legs don't work correctly and my back is
fused in three places so I can barely bend over to do my shoes
let alone pick up an element. I have to roll at least two feet away,
crawl over, pick it up, crawl back, haul myself back into the chair
and then roll back to where I was. Sure I have one of those
grabber things but it don't work well on plush carpeting when you
need to pick up a round 1x1 plate.
   So that's my pet peeve. What's yours?
