Things you find annoying

People who treat animals badly, either their pets or farm animals.
Fur farming. It's a disgrace to mankind.

A car taking up 2 parking spaces.

People just leaving their shopping cart in a parking space.

People not recycling.

They do this in my neighborhood a lot.

When I see a cop who has pulled someone over, I just ease off the gas.

It bugs me to see people strolling down the middle of the street when there is a perfectly serviceable sidewalk available. It would be different if the sidewalk was crumbly or overgrown, but it's very well-maintained.

People who ask the same questions repeatedly, hoping each time for a different answer.

... wait ...

Isn't that a definition of insanity? Googling ...

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results each time." - Albert Einstein

Well, old Albert was a theoretical physicist, not a psychologist, but what he said (if he actually said it) seems to make sense.

In no particular order...

Mosquito's
My relatives
Taxi drivers
The fact that no one seems to sell Nokia smartphone accessories
Glory hunter football fans
The fact that the only thing our government is good at, is collecting taxes
When people tell me to "smile more"
When people think I look familiar, even though I've never met them

Today: Slamming doors and the people who are responsible for the slamming.

When groups of people (often teenagers) stand around in the most inoppurtune places, like the entrance to a store.

When groups of people (often with one or more baby carriges) can't 'single file' it for a few moments to let others pass them on the sidewalk, instead you have to walk into the street to be able to pass them.

When the cats do their death races and insist on taking a pass or two across my stomach when I am (were) sleeping.

People who play their car sterios loud enough to interrupt my movie-watching, even with their windows close, my windows are closed (I live on the second floor and have tripple-glazed windows), and I'm wearing headphones.

People who can't use the trashcan 10 meters away, intstead of throwing their garbage on the street.

Getting the hair caught in the car door without noticing it until the driver starts to pull away.

Not getting invited to the family for holidays.

I don't think I'm always right, I know it. Sometimes I am slightly less right (ie wrong) though... But don't tell anyone.


Amen!
Even worse, when the man you are infatuated with is married but is infatuated with you too. Honor and decency can be difficult.

Why people see me like I am a maniac/terrorist/whatever.

Equestriatola's new avatar, because I cannot understand it.

People who don't know how to operate the machines at work but thinking messing with random things will fix whatever problem they have. They just mess things up even more.

Right now, the fact that I have to keep waiting to get my half sleeve done. I want it so bad but I know if you rush it, it will look like it.

Fireworks going off when I am trying to sleep. Honestly, it's not even the Fourth of July and they decide to set off fireworks, especially when other people, especially children, are trying to sleep.

Ember Eyes post is 98% pertinent to me, but for the hair, the family, and the married men.

That's from an SNL skit of Celebrity Jeopardy with French Stewart, Burt Reynolds, and Sean Connery. I won't ruin it by explaining it.

Regarding your last line about Texas, they just executed their 500th Death Row inmate.

Unexpected loud noises. I am ok with going to concerts because I generally know that there is going to be loud noises, but when someone plays a video on their phone or on their laptop unexpectedly, I get pretty peeved.

Another annoyance of me is when someone wants to share a video with me from YouTube, especially my guitar/Kung Fu teacher. He is a big fan of Britain's Got Talent (and an Anglophile, which I also find annoying), and pretty much spends most of his down time showing me and everyone random videos of acts he likes. T.V. talent shows to me just are so unappealing, and I tend to have a certain taste in YouTube videos that is sort of unique.

a know-it-all person. i don't know if others would agree but it's annoying to have them in a group.
