Are there little things that annoy you to the point where you want to scream?

Well, maybe that’s an overstatement. But are there (what others might consider) little things that annoy/irritate you to the point where you want to SCREAM?
 

a couple that come to mind for me are: people who chew and then pop their gum, or those who eat with their mouths open..
 

No, I honestly can't think of anything at all, under any circumstances, which would cause me to scream. But I think I get where you are coming from. Something causing me to swear on the other hand? *sigh*… Is it expected that I type out a list? :)

It always makes me nervous when I’m around people who scream. But I suppose that’s the idea.

Yes, it's expected, just give us the short list and go from there :D

I try to make any such conversation as short as possible.

If its in a business sometimes I'll say something like "do you really sell xxx here?" loudly, not a scream but loud enough for others near by to here. Sometimes it works...

I've gone so far as to say, "I'm leaving, you don't even know I'm here. You're with your phone." Seriously. People can get off drugs more easily than they can get off their cell phones. I have better things to do with my time than wait for them to find a split second to pay attention to me.

Off all silly things, I hate it when I buy fast food, hamburger, fries, or onion rings, they ask do I want ketchup, salt and pepper. If I buy a biscuit, yes I want butter and jelly. If I buy a taco, yes I want salsa. If I buy a soft drink, I want a straw. This has always been normal practice, now you have to ask or pay extra for condiments. Good grief, sometimes they don't even give you a napkin. I don't get fast food often but when I do, I want to enjoy it.

They have gotten so bad, I have to open the bag to make sure everything is in there.

Well LadyEmeraude, to give one example, I kind of pride myself in my driving skills & awareness of what’s going on the road. Now everyone I meet seems to say they are above average drivers. I know it’s been a while since I went to school, but please correct me if I’m wrong, and call me old fashioned if you must. But surely that’s got to be a mathematical impossibility. How the hell can everyone be better than the average? :unsure:

So just to explain what I’m leading up to, when I was 22 I took an advanced driving test, conducted by a class one police driver trainer, and passed. At times I train people at work to drive on a test track. My employer sent me to France to be trained by people who compete in European touring car racing. So with that kind of thing in mind, I don’t really expect a lot from people I come cross on the road. Just the most basic of basics is fine by me, It really is, but at least try. Everyone should be praised for trying. *long sigh............."

Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t get a personality change when I get behind a wheel, but every bloody day I’m greeted with a situation on the road were I call out and say, “What the f*#k…are you trying to do!" 😕 And many others words and phrases to that effect. “You have got to be [chose your own expletive – be careful now!] Kidding me!” 😖 seems to have become a favourite of mine. :)

Yeeeah…? so anyway, as you can see, someone has changed the ‘u’ & the ‘c’ keys about on my keyboard with some symbols again. I hate that too!

When I'm trying to converse with people and they can't take their eyes off their phone. It's beyond annoying, it's rude.

Reminded me of a first date: (I posted a couple of years ago)
I took her to a nice restaurant. We're having dinner & her cell phone rings 6-7 times. Each time she answers it & chats for several minutes. I could understand business or emergency calls, but I could tell from her conversation that it was just friends of hers.
I expected her to say something like, "Can I call you back later?" but she just kept chatting - some calls were around 15 minutes.
After a couple of weeks, she calls me & says, "I thought we were getting along great; why haven't you been calling me?"
I said, "I learned all I needed to know about you on our first date."
She said, "I don't know what you're talking about."
I said, "OK, so you're not only rude, you're also stupid."
She said, "Why don't you just go to hell."
I said, "I've already been there on our first date."

I've never been hung up on so suddenly. :ROFLMAO:
