I had to edit this but any way here it is I hope I did a good job.

Stuff that Annoys Me!
People who point at their wrist while asking for the time. I know where my watch is buddy, where the h**** is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the bathroom is?

People who are willing to get off their a** to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the TV and change the channel manually.


When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". ****** off. What good is a g***damn cake if you can't eat it? What, should I eat someone else's cake instead?


When people say "It's always in the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the **** would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they?

When people say, while watching a movie "Did you see that?" No *******, I paid $9.00 to come to the theatre and stare at the f******* ceiling up there. What did you come here for?

When something is "new and improved", which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it.

When a cop pulls you over and then asks if you know how fast you were going? You should know ********, you *******g pulled me over.
When people say "Life is short." What the h***?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What? Are they going to do something that's longer?
When people ask "Can I BORROW a piece of paper?" Sure, but please don't return the favor! It's one god damn piece of paper!
When you are waiting for the bus and someone ask you "Did the bus come yet?" If the bus came I would not be standing here ********!
People who ask "Can I ask you a question?" Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya buddy

Very funny.

Ya know what annoys me? People who get their pantyhose in a knot over life's little ****. You know the type? Getting all upset and worked over because of silly, minute quirks in society. Get a cause. This ain't it. Too much energy that can be more usefully applied elsewhere.

1) I hate the way my husband asks me for a favor. He doesn't say "Could you get me some Coke while you're at the store?" or "Would you get me some Coke while you're at the store?"

He says "You want to get me some Coke while you're at the store?"

Which leads me to the next item...

2) He's said "Ya want to get me some chew while you're out?"...reply: "nope!" (He generally has to get it himself if he's gonna get it. I hate that stuff...ick.)

Here's a kicker: he smokes and he chews at the same time...I smoke, yes, lightly...so that's not good, definitely, definitely, not good and I know it, in any amount, it's not good for me to be smoking. But he's asking for...how many kinds of cancer can you get there? At least he's not using snuff anymore! (Not kidding, y'all. He's a farm boy. At one point, I'm serious, he was smoking, chewing and using snuff at the same time. :eek: Soooo not kidding.)

Oh...and hey, what's really great is that when he's spitting it (the chewing tobacco) out, it's dark brown. And opaque. Once he used my Dr. Pepper bottle (which I forgot I'd emptied) that was sitting in the cupholder of the car...yeah, you could say that didn't go well...:faint:

The man brushes his teeth a lot, at least. ('Course, if he didn't, he wouldn't be coming anywhere near me.)

Oh, and it's not so delightful when multimillionaires ***** about $9. (Refer to the "How Much are You Worth?" thread if someone's wondering what I'm talking about here.) :rolleyes:

When people say "It's always in the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the **** would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? What bugs me is when things always show up in the place I'm looking after the last place I look; I finally give up looking, and by doing so I promptly locate it.

When something is "new and improved", which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it. I guess "New Improvement!" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

When a cop pulls you over and then asks if you know how fast you were going? Note that he doesn't ask how fast you were going though (unless he wants proof for some reason). I think the question's supposed to direct your attention to your inattention, so that you might notice the extent of this problem and help prevent further incidents.

People who ask "Can I ask you a question?" They really should specify what type of question. That would solve the inherent contradiction and make the question more answerable at the same time.

People who insist on having their car stero base so loud that it vibrates the windows of the house at 2:00am!!!! I think I should be able to toss a lit fire cracker at them as they drive by. What stops me from actually doing it is the POLICE probaby won't agree!!! I shouldn't have to put up with people who are sooooo inconsiderate they think EVERYONE wants to hear their thump, thump, thump especially at night!!!

I also think they would tend to be more considerate if they had to dodge a few small explosions!!!!

Cool fireworks, I had them several times in germany but it is a big no no t have them in Australia, because of all the gum trees and lots of plum trees (sorry no plum trees it's just a Aussie folk song, ) and a varranda out the back annnnnnnd an old rocking chair. and because it is so dry I wish I could get some.

Things that me are people that complain about how fat they are getting while eating their fourth ice cream cone. Seriously, I work with a rotund woman at work. While eating her ice cream with one hand she pokes and prods her jiggly tummy complaining will you look at that with a mouth full of ice cream. Makes me wanna draw a gun and yell "Slowly lower the cone and back away" lmbo

People who are in such a hurry to get where they are going they pull directly in front of you causing you to slam on your breaks and then they go 15 below the speed limit.

Farmers who drive their machinery on highways they did not help pay for since they are tax deductable. They at least have the curtisy to wave you around them since you can't see just as another vehicle in the opposite direction clears the hill.

The 911 operator who answers "911 is this an emergency" ummm no I just thought I'd call and see how your day is going.

People who complain about people who complain. *grins*

Kids who say they don't need to go to school while yelling "your the most dumbest mom ever there was" all the more reason to get your skinny butt to school and fast.

People who ask is that your dog? No I just thought I'd tie my leash to the neighbors dog and take it for a walk.

People who ask if its raining outside. No I just thought I'd run threw the sprinkler before starting my shift.

And girl, you know I know the tractors. Esp. since I'm @ my parents' 15 minutes from the Missouri line! This is farmer-palooza, baby!

Let's see...what annoys me?

A husband who leaves while you're sleeping and takes your child and doesn't call to tell you where they are, and finally, when you do call @ 11:30 p.m. to say "Hey, when are you getting home?" He tells you that he came in @ 7:30 a.m. and told you that the two of them were going to go visit his mom, and that a couple of hours ago the kid got tired and fell asleep. That's all well and good, sweetie, but I didn't know where you were all day because I was sleeping when you say you told me, and if you knew you weren't coming back for the night why the hell didn't you call me?

When my teenaged daughters used to to this I would say:

I am smarter than I look

They asked once :
"what do you mean??"

My reply:

"Do I really look so brain dead I would actually believe.......(example you snuck out of the house at 2:00am for an emergency as oppsoed to calling 911!!!!)

mmm I'd say use the air freshener the worst thing that is going to happen is your going to drive him into the next room which by the way it sounds you really don't wanna be all that close anyways. lol

Residents with the walking farts and here I not only have to stand in the same space as them I'm not allowed to giggle. :rolleyes:

Babies who think they can take their diaper off all by themselves.

Dogs who think sit means...SIT ON ME!!!

Dogs who chase my cat (we got a new puppy can you tell?)

You have a point. However, even though I drive him into the next room, he will first open up all the windows (at night, when it's cold), turn on the ceiling fan, and whine incessantly about me being inconsiderate because I know how the air freshener affects him.

Annoying:
Being a CNA, and helping residents of nursing homes who hit. And you're not allowed to be really unhappy (it's not that I'd hit them back, but you know what I mean) because it's the dementia. One woman punched me in the back and knocked me belly-first onto her bed while I was 5 or 6 mo. pregnant. (AUGH!) I wasn't hurt seriously, so...all was well.

Being six months pregnant having an old German Jew with flashbacks think I was a Nazi come to take her to the death shower or at least thats what she kept screaming. Stupidly I forgot to keep myself between her and my escape route she grabbed me by the neck and kept hitting my head on the wall finally getting my head stuck between the wall and the toilet they had to have the maintanance men come and remove the toilet so I could get out. Did I mention I was 7 months pregnant and spent two days in hospital for false labor? lmbo But, man on good days she is the coolest lady...You have to remember the good days to survive the bad nights Chrys.

I know, I know. There are good days. My favorite residents were two guys remarkably similar to the characters on "Grumpy Old Men." When both of them happened to be having good, lucid days, they were awesome.

Things that really annoyed them were

the dining room coffee,
the flavorless food their doctor ordered for their meal plans,
their roommates
their daughters' husbands
all the other Nurse's Aides (they liked me best, that's why I liked them best, probably ;))
and each other...funny...they were inseparable! LMAO! :D
You know what really annoys me? I can remember details about nursing home residents from years ago, but I can't remember how to do a knitting stitch I've used to complete 12 projects (three of which were quite extensive and time-consuming)! :rolleyes: Guess I'll have to look it up. Now, where's my book of knitting stitches? I can't remember! Aughhhh! (Anyone familiar with the Hindu Pillar stitch? Maybe I can find it on the net. Or I'll just skip it and go with Irish Moss, my true love, which is very simple.)

Oh--yes, this one's great. How many of you knew this? It's funny.

If you calculate the cost of any decent wool or wool-blend yarn and the other materials to make a sweater, it costs more to knit a sweater than to just go and buy one most of the time! :eek:

This is a very expensive addiction, people!

Thank your grandmothers--they spend rediculous amounts of money to make those hideous sweaters you pretend you love @ Christmas but never actually wear! :p

Oh, man, Ich--don't get me started with Arabic. I can't pronounce stuff right, and my Kuwaiti friends love to speak rapidly in Arabic (can't catch any of the words that way, and they know it) and then burst into fits of laughter...and then I go, "What? What is it???" and they say "Oh, never mind, you wouldn't be interested, it's nothing, it's nothing." :rolleyes: Urghhh. I love 'em, but I hate that! :p Also I usually forget the first day of Ramadan and I'll grab McDonald's or something on the way over to hang out with all my friends (of all cultures)...before sunset, of course. :faint: Oops.

Things that annoy me are often found in the guise of little boys.

Little boys who pain stakingly crawl on their hands and knees for the perfect beetle. They then lovingly place that perfect beetle in a safe container to save until later when everyone is quietly getting ready for bed. While his sister is brushing her hair for the hundreth time he takes that perfect beetle and tosses it in her hair resulting in screams of terror, whipping hair, yells for help, hoots of delight from a very naughty little boy. :mad:

Little boys who are not convinced that saying ******* or fracken are punishable by the same offense as saying the F-word.

Little boys who are convinced they are vampires and need to stay up past midnight. Well, dear one lets make you a bloody hamburger and see how badly you want to be a vampire.

Little boys who cause screaming, headaches and make you so mad you want to run away from home that look like angels when they are sleeping. :faint:

People like present partner he will try to carry every thing from his truck into the house in "one trip" so his hands are too full of stuff to open the door. So he stands there kicking at the door like he is angry because I wasn't standing by the front door awaiting his arrival!!! :mad:

I am usually on toliet, in shower,trying to get anvil off top shelf, ect..... he gets mad because he had to stand there and wait!!!!

I get annoyed because:

#1 we have never had an automatic door opener like the ones at Wal-Mart!!!! He has lived here for two years think he would know that by now!!!

#2 He could put some thing down then he could open the door himself.

This would be faster and less annoying for those on the inside trying to scramble off potty spot to let some one in who is too #$%%@!! stupid to figure this stuff out on their own!!!!

I got a bad review at work and it annoys the living day lights out of me; because, all of my missed days were from my father in law having heart surgery that went wrong, my father's and mother's heart attacks, Koda and Garrett being in the hospital, and the one time I went to the hospital for myself but I went to work that night I was just late.
