you know when you need to sneeze, but can't? your nose is tingling, you hold a tissue up to catch the sneeze, but then nothing happenes no matter how hard you will it.

what's the one thing more annoying than that?

when you've been trying to sneeze for the last ten minutes, and some douche starts asking you questions when you're right on the cusp of finally sneezing.

maddening.

so what gets on your nerves?

That is really annoying...

..what really gets on my nerves is when I'm trying to tell a story to a friend or relative, and every 5 seconds, they cut me off or talk over me... Then after the 5 or 6th interruption I get frustrated and just give up and stop talking completely.
Then the person I was trying to tell the story to keep saying things like, "Come on, finish the story. I was listening." etc...

Very annoying. It kills the whole flow of the story...

I should have been a pair of ragged claws



Ugh, both the sneeze thing and the story-telling thing are über annoying!

My biggest annoyance is when people chew their food loudly, or breathe heavily when they eat, etc. Any kind of food noise results in the instant loss of an appetite, and the desire to choke the noise-maker to death. Some people just sound like they're French kissing to the food.

A variation on that is when people enjoy their food too much, especially when they voice it out loud after having noisily downed platefuls. It bothers me in particular when it's unhealthy food -- you eat to live. It shouldn't be a pastime. Or a way to express your affection for a morsel. O_o

Person 1: "I think this is is the best cake I've ever had!"

Me: "I know; I just watched you make love to it."

Yea, that's really freaking gross. People can be really freakin beastly and uncouth.

Manners people. Manners.

I hate it when people use chat speak in real life (or online to tell you the truth) and think it makes them cool. Along the same lines kids who think it's *unique* to speak in a terrible fake English accent. It just makes me want to punch them in the throat, hard.

Yea, I really hate text talk as well. Yes I'm guilty of doing it online if I'm doing a bunch of things at once, but I always try to keep it to a minimum...

Ah, my sister does that interrupting thing all the time! It really drives me crazy. But she's like that. She also loves to assume that her opinion's the ultimate answer. Which is fine if we're talking about, like, which kinds of cookies are the best cookies ever (Subway brand macadamia nut, of course!). That's all casual and doesn't matter.

But she does it with religion as well. She's been an atheist for years, and she's very vocal about it. She also assumes that because she's an atheist, I must be one as well. As soon as the topic comes up, she's all, "Oh, my sister and I are atheist!" And I can't do much but sit there and think don't answer for me! because it's impossible to get a word in when she's off talking about it.

gonk She's my sister, and I love her, but it really annoys me when she does that.

@ Thursdays: Does it count if you're doing it just for kicks? Like, sometimes my grandma and I will go through a drive-thru with an English accent to see if anyone will believe us.

I think it counts if it holds up the line at an otherwise busy time but otherwise no

I'm from the southern US and live in the NW and for some reason a lot of folks still get the giggles when I say something like "y'all"
