My list:


1. Getting my hair cut but not being able to take a shower immediately afterwards.

2. Right after cutting my fingernails, in the following two days they catch on every type of cloth (or vaguley cloth-like material) known to man.

3. Washing spoons in the sink, but always forgetting that they do that weird splash-deflection thing that sends water flying about four feet in every direction.

4. Wearing a gray shirt when the spoon thing happens.

5. Creationists.

6. Driving my mom anywhere, in which every fifteen seconds she gasps loudly and grabs the dashboard as if we're going to be in a ten car pile-up.

7. People who act like assholes, but then also openly admit to being an asshole, as if it's something to be proud of, which more often than not just comes off as them simply compensating for being insecure or having shitty social skills (or both).

8. Actors being replaced by someone different within the same continuous franchise.  

9. People who hold the door open for me in public, even though like I'm thirty-feet away, thus forcing me to choose from three equally unappealing options: ignore them and walk at my regular speed (look like a douche), imediately start running towards them (look like a jackass), or do that retarded half-jog thing (look like a jackass and a douche).

10. Creationists.


Your turn.

Nuclear turds.

Diarrhea.

The turds that feel like you're pushing out a baby hippo and make a giant splash, but when you're done it's just the size of a pebble.

When you're stuck in traffic and all of a sudden you have to take an explosive shit.

Creationists are annoying, though I don't believe I've ever met one in the flesh, to my knowledge.

Believe in God if you like, I won't care, but deny evolution? There are no words.

My mother does this too. She does it when my father's driving, and he's always been a much more careful driver than her. Though she's gotten a lot more nervous on the road as she's getting older.

Another thing my mother does that annoys me - I pour out a glass of something for myself, she grabs it and takes a sip.

Something annoyed me last night and I mentally filed it away for the next Things That Annoy You thread, and now I can't remember what it is.  Annoying.

For some reason I had the odd notion that a swear word wouldn't be a big deal on these boards. How fl00bish of me.

You're lucky. I went to a tiny Baptist high school for three years, in which I was one of maybe five people that didn't totally believe the Earth was six thousands years old and Adam and Eve rode around on a triceratops while frolicking with vegetarian lions and velociraptors. I used to try to debate them, before realizing that while they can pretty much say anything they want, in order for me retain any semblance of non-hypocrisy I'd be forced to limit my statements according to ridiculous things like science and logic.

Company "parties" to celebrate a bonus (which I dont receive as I'm not a permanent employee) that I'm required to attend but which consume my lunch hour.

Right now, taxes.  More specifically, the AMT.

If I follow the guidelines for withholding then I shouldn't have to pay an extra $10k in April!  It's not as if I even have a mortgage deduction that's being limited -- I only deduct my fucking state income taxes!

And now that my taxes are deep into six figures I'm really annoyed with all the whiny liberals who want more from me.  This will pass again in a few weeks when the taxes recede to automatic invisible withholdings.  The Dems are lucky that elections don't happen in May.

I pretty much agree with all of the above except for maybe the creationists. I'm ambivalent about how the earth came to be. Here are some things that tweak my nose:

Starbuck's
Guys who wear skinny jeans
Chains attached to wallets
Fat people giving nutrition/dieting or exercise advice
People who put special rims on their vehicles
People who walk on the wrong side of the sidewalk (it's just like driving, stay to the right)
Adobe software updates
Smoking or anyone that smells like smoke
PT Cruisers
Mixing ketchup with eggs
Bending cards during poker games
shutting off the TV without using the remote

I could probably go on all day but those are the ones that pop into my head immediately. I'm pretty crotchety! :thumbsup:

Groups of people who take up an entire walkway and then walk slow.  This should be punishable by death.  In fact, slow walkers in general - consider yourself on thin ice.

Also people who drive slower than the speed limit.  Fuck off.  

Waiting on other people.  Some people are fucking notorious for this.  Punctuality is one of the best traits a person can have, imo, because it is also considerate to be punctual.

In summary, anything that I feel is impeding me is annoying.

True dat. Lets add slow pokes in crosswalks to that list as well. Giidy up when you cross the street slow poke. At least once a week i get some assclown who decides to slow down to a crawl while crossing the road after I yield to let them cross. So annoying!
