People clipping their nails in the office. That sound.

I didn't realize how much I hate that until I read this post.

With TP the sheet rolls OVER not under. I've taken it out of it's holder and turned it the proper way on more than one occasion. Irks the hell outta me.

I can't stand it when people cough without covering their mouth. I hold my breath for so many seconds to let (in my mind) the contaminants pass by, and often times I move quickly away from the person who coughed.

The TP is supposed to roll over.

apparently that's not right either

There is definitely a cultural difference here. Europeans also pile food on the back of the fork. Americans will look at you like if you do that.

Huh?

I also can't stand when people whistle. Not like a cat call on the street, but on the bus or the subway, when they're whistling some random tune to themselves. I hate it; and it becomes all I can focus on. Humming is bad, too, but I hate whistling worse.

On the first day of school, I let the kids know there is no whistling, tapping, or that "awful ghetto popping of gum".

I cannot stand those sounds, and will NOT work 180 days with them going on in my room.

I used to have to swing my shoes five times round my head by the laces before I put them on or else everyone in my family would die. Flex my toes at every lamppost the bus went by. that was a lot of fucking flexing.

I hope you're kidding.

Wish I was, but I think I managed to cure myself. I was still very young, early teens. Hadn't even began hairstyles yet, really. othig bold anyway, maybe just a blob of cheap green gel from the local newsagents. It took a lot of work, all internalised intensive ritualistic self hypnosis and re-tuning of neurological pathways, but I don't feel the need to swing objects around my head a certain number of times anymore. I just kill prostitutes now and that's not harming anyone.

I have a separate laundry hamper for towels. Just the thought of wet towels in the hamper with my clothes...

I take them down to the laundry room for the same reason.

I didn't think anyone could get confused by that but...I've been wrong b4. how is it logical to pile food on the back of your fork? that's just weird.

I didn't know whether you meant that was illogical or that Americans looking at you like was illogical.

I agree that piling food on the back of your fork is silly.

Here's a good one: I walk like how I drive, meaning I stay to the right on sidewalks. When someone approaching me in the opposite direction tries to pass me on my right, it annoys me to no end. "You're not walking in England, buddy. Keep to your right on the sidewalk!"

I'm like that on the stairs.

I used to do that all.the.time. It was so bad that I stopped chewing gum because I can't help but do it if I chew gum. Tapping is annoying too. I have a co-worker who does that during staff meetings. He's annoying in just about every way imaginable.

LOL Me too, especially when jogging and I encounter another jogger, since it's harder to avoid them at that [incredibly fast, quite honestly] speed. Run to the right, asshole!

I do the 50 yard stare and barrel right into them!

When I was walking around London last year, I was all kinds of confused.

Doing #2 on a public toilet! Doing #1 I'm ok with because I'm a squatter but for #2, I have to sit down and relax and I just can't do that on a public toilet. I don't care about those paper seat covers and I don't care how clean the bathroom looks, I just cannot and will not do it!

Hair in the tub doesn't bother me as long as it's MY hair! If it's not mine, then there'd be a real fucking problem.

I love wet grass between my toes. I play in the sunshine and the rain. Snow, however, annoys me if I have to be out in it. When I can just look at it, from the inside of my nice warm house, while sitting in front of my fireplace, with a nice Grey Goose Martini in my hand, I think it's the most beautiful shit in the world.

I love gardening and if there's no dirt under my fingernails, I was bullshitting around.

I don't care which way the toilet paper rolls, just make sure it's on the roller. I keep extra rolls of tp stocked on the shelf behind my toilets and I will CLOWN like hell, if I walk in my bathroom and there is no tp on the roll.

I don't care how a person holds their fork as long as when they chew their food, their mouth is closed. Watching someone turn steak and potatoes into mush in their mouths, will turn my stomach and piss me right the fuck off.

I love M&M's, the colors don't matter to me.

I do hate Black Licorice and Black Jellybeans! The smell makes me gag. The taste makes me puke. I love me some Red Licorice though. Especially, the Twizzlers...YUMMY!

I don't mind towels mixing with clothes in the hamper because I have a laundry chute and I wash our laundry every night before I go to bed. I will however get very annoyed if I go to put tonight's laundry in the dryer and last night's laundry is still sitting in it. My kids will gladly tell just how much that annoys me.

Ok, that's enough. People thinking they KNOW me annoys the hell out of me, too!

I hate grape flavoring!

Gum, candy, juice... I don't even like grape jam/jelly.

My old church served real wine at Communion. My new church serves watered-down grape juice. I swear I gagged at the altar last Sunday.

I just drank grape gatorade!

-Baked chicken. I remember my mom making some and then putting my piece in some oil and a skillet to correct her mistake

-Having lint in my sock. It can ruin my mood if I have to deal with it for more than 10 minutes

-sweat on my back. completely uncomfortable

-popcorn shells stuck in my teeth

-people wearing flip flops in the rain. the fuck is wrong with you?!

-peanut butter. don't EVER give me peanut butter or peanut flavored candy because i'll cut you out of my life

-all black tennis shoes. they don't look right. I've only had one pair of all black sneakers. They were Nike Air Force 1s low cut and I love that kind.....but the color......I wore them maybe 5 times over the course of 3 years

-Life cereal or Chex. I literally frown when I see them in stores

-Hard candy. what purpose does it serve?

-unibrows

-older people wearing the "latest trends". I'm not trying to see your grandmother walking around in House of Dereon. Take yo ass home and put on a summer dress, dammit!

-tomatoes

-Tim And Eric's Awesome Show on Adult Swim. I will not watch that show at all. If I had to choose between watching a marathon of that show or eating Samantha Ronson out, ole Sammy better be prepared for the licking of her life

Yes, you´re right. I already said that my examples are probably not illogical or dumb enough.

But anyway.......it makes me feel uncomfortable when shoelaces are tied asymmetrically.

I can´t stand it when people blow their nose while I´m eating.

I can´t stand the smell and the taste of coriander/cilantro.

I wash my hands quite often and really avoid touching doorknobs etc. etc. , and sometimes I carry a small bottle with cheap cologne with me to spray on my hands.

..........and black tennis shoes. Can´t stand them either.

And any kind of dirty shoes, especially dirty tennis shoes.

And smelly people at the gym. I know this is not really dumb stuff...but hey, some people seem to be to dumb to take a shower BEFORE working out when they desperately need it. Smelly people make me mad.

You are silly as all fuckout.

And about the first item on your list: I'd have put your little ass in the oven.
