In real life only, there are no annoying persons on this forum....wink

Mine is a neighbor kitty corner across the street, could be worse, he could be next door I suppose.

He has a loud bellowing laugh, sounds like he is using a megaphone and when he drinks which is often the laugh is punctuated by the "F" word at frequent intervals and seems to me the "F" word is louder than surrounding words....must take practice to pull that off.

Not only that, he knows everything about household repair and thinks nothing of going over to where men are working to tell them what they are doing wrong. Hey Bozo, I am paying this guy by the hour so stop sticking your nose where it don't belong.

My perennial garden....he had a lot to say about that, fell on deaf ears but one day I will attack him with my pruning shears.

And the trees, let me tell you about the trees. He has two on his lot, they were, and I stress the work "were" beautiful trees, that is until he decided to play Mr. Horticulture and get his saw out and trim them. And once he started trimming one side did not match the other so he trimmed more, and then more.....you get the picture.

And wouldn't you know it, his wife is the sweetest lady ever, how does she put up with him :rolleyes:
 

One of Ron’s helpers. He’s a very talented woodworker, excellent skillset, but man is he annoying!! 😡 He works in Ron’s shop when Ron needs something from him, and it’s located on our property so he’s around randomly.

I swear he lays in wait for me to step outside the house and as soon as I do he regaled me with his latest story, joke, opinion about whatever, and is generally obnoxious and annoying. Luckily Ron doesn’t use him very often, plus he’s returning to his home country next month so I won’t have to deal with him much longer.
 
There are 2 annoying residents who live in our apt building complex, {the side I live in} who constantly break the 4hr only parking rule in back driveway which is for loading/ unloading,has 6 parking spots. They both have parking spots in the gargage,but arrogantly continue to park their cars some days all day long,*****Ing lazy. They have been told constantly by the board to stop but nothing is done. Their cars should be towed

Try this. Call the "non emergency Police phone number and report an "abandoned car " in the loading zone. The cops will send a junior officer, probably with his/her training officer to your location. The cops will run the state tags, get the name and address of the vehicle owner, and contact him/her, and give them ten minutes to move it or they will TOW IT . A record of this action will go in the Police computer, tied to the name of the offending car owner, for future information. This IS WHY you pay taxes, to get services that you need. JimB.
 
Sadly the most annoying (and at times infuriating)person i know is my only surviving older sister. She's about 6 yrs older than me, but the youngest of the three of them (They are full sisters with each other from Dad's first marriage). i love her, but....

It was a blessing to have a health reason to move a substantial distance away from her, so all contact was long distance. She's generous, a helper (we were all raised that way) but tends to feel the right to tell anyone she's helping in any way how they should live their lives.

And if you think i get long winded: 1) you always have the options to skip my posts in this format, one of the perks of internet forums; 2) Multiply my parenthetical comments by at least 5 and imagine having each one have internal 'asides'---she interrupts her main narratives so frequently to give her listener info that is not necessary for them to understand/appreciate her story/point that she often has to ask the listener to get her back on track (Pro tip for dealing with anyone who does that--tell them they were just saying they needed to go).

Not only does she give unnecessary info about people you don't know it is often of such a personal nature that you desperately hope you never meet the person--because it would feel awkward knowing something so personal about someone you're just meeting. You also wonder what she's told complete strangers about you and your life choices. Altho as i got older i realized that her impressions of people and interpretations of their behaviors can be very inaccurate, because she views them thru her unique lens on the world.

Oh and she always has to find someone to blame for things that are usually nobody's fault and sometimes consequences of her own choices. Rarely if ever blames any authority figure (in Milgram's famous experiment she would have turned the dial to 'lethal' shock--she'd have been weeping and crying but she would've because a 'doctor' told her to do so) rather she often blames some powerless person (sometimes a child--which i did not tolerate her doing to my kids). My kids witnessed this so often it became our family joke whenever someone had a problem to say 'blame ______' inserting the name of the least likely being in the house to have caused it.

i say again i love her, and i understand the psychological issues at work in her life. i will grieve when she's not on this planet anymore. But it is easier to tolerate and make allowances for her from afar.
 
A person we play bridge with. Laughs loudly at inappropriate moments, has to fill any silence with loud, random noises, wants to draw attention to herself by any means possible, and because she is trans, has absolutely no idea of how to sit in a dress. Last winter we had a cold front start to blow in. The temp was dropping rapidly. She kept opening the door, letting the wind blow in, just to see how cold it was, chilling down the room in the process.My husband finally told her to knock it off. Even when she bids, she uses exaggerated speech. ”One Kuh-lub-bah.” So childish.
 
I flow away from annoying people so now as a senior don't know any. But yeah plenty occasionally over decades.

That noted, at corporate workplaces, employment was sometimes a minefield of difficult, dangerous, and yes even annoying people I learned to navigate around or cope with. Being unemotional like Spock helps immensely as annoying people often purposely provoke others. Holding a senior position among others with less skills and knowledge makes some envious that work to take one down. Especially cowardly behind one's back with innuendo and lies.

Also flow away from those spewing foul language or with sewer morality, drug issues, and more.
