It's irritating when somebody in the office laughs at every joke you say just to be nice. I'm all for being nice but there is such a thing as being too nice, or am i wrong?

It's irritating when sombody responds the same way every morning:

Frank: "Good morning Karen", sometimes, "Hey Karen" or "Morning" or "Hello"

Karen: "Good morning Frank, how are you"? same thing, every single time!!! how come people can't change it up a bit? The "how are you" just sounds so fake and phoney.

It's irritating when somebody asks you a question they already know the answer to. Example, you send out invitations to a party, starts at 2:00pm. You've talked about it all week and then your brother calls and asks "what times that party start"? uhhh....still 2 oclock

OH! I just thought of something that IRKS THE SHIT OUT OF ME! This is a relatively new speech phenomenon, but one that is so friggin anoying, I want to shake the offender until I rid them of this annoying speech affectation. I'm talking about adding an extra syllable to a one syllable word. Here we go:

"Oh my God-dah!"

"I was so pissed-dah!"

I guess it's the words that end in "d" that get this treatment the most. Did this trend start in the vallies of California or what? rolleyes

I totally heart you. nod

Extra syllables are sometimes a California thing. I had a friend in California who always pronounced my first name (John) with more than one syllable, and it drove me nuts. She made it sound similar to "jawin'" and I wanted to say, "On what planet do you think my name is pronounced like that?"

Same here, my nieces are constantly typing like that. Ish generally, from what I've seen, is "shit" but a Rated G version.

It's irritating when they sing the national anthem at ball games and people in the crowd start hootin' and hollerin' towards the end of the song. Do that after the song, not while it's still being sung. That's really irritating, this is not a rock concert, it's the national anthem.

Damn well said sir!

It's funny how people get so irritated over things that they have absolutely no control over.

I'm thinking of starting a focus group on here. It will be called "How do i get a life?". It will include the diminishment of petty personal irritations and blame-mentality and the highlighting of how we can make ourselves truly happy. smile

Prince M&M people are as mad as a bag of sparrows. Fact.

When people say "Whatever that means"? When they know damn well what it means!

An intelligent person will question statements and get as much information as they can before they give their response.

Can you imagine if we all just assumed that we knew exactly what was going on in others' heads? Your truth is not necessarily what someone else's truth is.

So really, maybe you should just say that having to explain yourself is what really irritates you.

thumbs up!

What prompted me to say this was the following that happened to me:

I purchased some hall speakers and amps from a gentlemen who is a drummer for a church. During a conversation, he said he was drumming for the church next Saturday for a "healing service" and he had to add, "whatever than means".

He know's damn well what that means. It's a service for people to be healed, either physically or emotionally but to say "whatever that means" when referencing a "healing service" is really irritating. And yes, he is a Christian.

"I see" thats all I get? I would never have thought I would use these words to describe your response to anything I say, but that was boring!
