THINGS THAT ANNOY ME.

[diezynueve69]

No, but they used to call me right afterwards and give me the Mock Disgusted Rant, then laugh their butts off. I also can write backwards. You can read it perfectly in a mirror. So I would write backwards on one line, forwards on the other, backwards.........etc.

My best friend used to have to get a mirror, flip the letter, read it normal, flip the letter. She sent me a letter with nasty crap smeared on it, it was hysterical. I still have that moldy letter. She would put the ketchup or mustard from the sandwich she ate on it, after telling me she ate, and put cotton and ketchup and said.........well you get the gist. I never laughed so hard in my life. We were always trying to out crazy the other ones letter. I also would write to her in crayon, and ask for a sharp metal file to be sent via a cake.

Hey you thought I started this when I joined this site?

People who say, "Lie-berry," as in, "I'm going to take these books back to the lie-berry."

(Shame on me for saying that. I have a few speech problems myself.)

"Supposably"

My wife says Vietmanese. I hate to correct people, but I've corrected here a few times on that one, to no avail. I asked her if those people live in Vietman.

Nucular is one that bugs me. GWB was famous for that one.

It bugs me when people say "I could care less". IT'S "COULDN'T CARE LESS"!!

I hate when people leave a mess for others to clean up at home or work. I'm sort of a neat freak, and try to be considerate of others, so that one hits on two nerves.

I hate when people confuse loose with lose as well as looser with loser when typing. I see it in emails at work and in forums all the time.

"Their" and "they're" are two others that really set me off. I'm constantly correcting people at work. Example: "I can't believe their still at lunch and not back to work yet."

How could I forget "People with poor table manners"? OH, EM, GEE that annoys me!!! And I work as a waiter so I've seen it all.


1. Slurping their Coke or the lesser popular Pepsi products..

2. Eating with their mouth open & food tossing around like its tumbling in a washing machine.

3. Gravy.... mayo ...... ketchup ...... dribbling down their chin onto their shirt.

4. Putting a cigarette out in their coffee.

5. Wiping their face off on their sleeve.

6. Using the restaurant's cloth table napkins as their Kleenex............Ewww.



I'm thinking, "You're paying $200 for that one meal & you're eating it like you were raised by wolves!!!" Then I walk over & smile & pretend I didn't notice their behavior & in my sweetest waiter voice ask, "Would Madame & Monsieur care for any dessert?"

back in the late 80s... I had a boss who thought it was cool management style to **THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX**
I think he said it in every meeting during a three year period... or... do more with less... UGH...

Women who are in their early twenties and are still throwing in the word "like", in every sentence: like, you know, and like, then we, you know, like, left, and then, like, we went ............. It's bad enough to hear the teens doing it.

People who take from the coffee maker before it is finished brewing.
STOP THAT! You're screwing up the rest of the coffee!

People who tell you something is b.s. since "they've always done it that way" after you've told them not to do it and why.

Example:

"Please don't take a cup of coffee until it's finished brewing... it messes up the rest of the pot".

"Oh that's bullshit, I have always done that!"

Why do people think that just because they have always done something, that it must be alright to do, or must be the right way to do it, and refuse to listen when you explain what is wrong with it? This annoys the hell out of me.

Wow, I think that you're wrong about this, at least about the coffee. One, it is the strongest and best part of the brew, two, who can wait 5 minutes for it to finish, three, I spent the extra $$ on that kind of maker, so I'm gonna use that feature! Of course, at work where they have one of those fancy makers with steamed milk, etc, I use 3 pods per cup. No milk, that's for sissies.

No, I'm not wrong about that - Yes I know, it's the strongest part of the brew, THAT is exactly WHY you have to leave it alone until the whole pot is done brewing. If you take the real strong stuff before the rest of it is finished brewing, the remainder ends up tasting about as strong as a brown crayon dipped in hot water.

No you don't. You love her, but you can't have her b/c I already fixed her up with Parfait. My fix-up for you is Portland. You have no say-so in the matter. The MR Cupid has spoken. Henceforth, it is written.

My favorite is - 6 of one, half dozen of the other, picture being pronounced pitcher, George Worshington instead of George Wash -ington. Are you done? I used to say this until my then teenage daughter would say" Are you 185 degrees" and that was 20 yrs ago. I still say are you finished to this day.

My mom drives me CRAZY with the word Washington and washer. Every time she's explaining something and the word Washington is involved, she pronounces it "Warshington." When I do clothes, she tells me to throw some clothes in the "warsher" for her. Drives me nuts, I just say "Washington" and "washer" under my breath and she gives me a look haha.

I hate when you have a long sleeve sweatshirt on and you go to put on your coat and the coat rolls up the sweatshirt's long sleeves underneath. That makes me cringe.

My #1 annoyance is probably when someone shows up un-announced to my house and I have to spend the next hour awkwardly trying to get them to leave. I go crazy over that shit.

Usually it's one of my buddies to where they see me since my sliding glass door is my family room/computer room. I feel obligated to say come in and not be rude to shut the curtains in their face. If I see them coming from a distance then I lock the door. My one buddy is famous for un-announced show-ups. I always say.. "just text or call me if you're stoppin by, that's it, CHRIST" haha.

#1 - Styrofoam Packaging
#2 - When I'm working, I hate it when a shopper will get right in the way of where I need to stock just as I approach it and then take an eternity just to pickout something simple like toothpaste!!
#3 - Award Show Bad Choices, particularly every year there is one musican (e.g. Taylor Swift) that takes all the awards for mediocre singing while the worthy ones get overlooked
