Annoying Things People Do

  #1  
Dec 18th, 2007
What are the most annoying things people around you do?

One of my pet peeves:
Some "know it all" old timer treats you like a little kid, just because you are young and he/she is not too bright.
No one died when Clinton lied.

When people tell me "I know what i said" and then when you say that to them, in a different argument, they say "it doesn't matter what you thought you said I know what I heard".
A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Facts are meaningless. They can be used to prove anything that is even remotely true.
Go then, there are other worlds than these.

Good advice, but often you are there first.

I don't like skinny folks complaining about fat folks every chance they have.

I don't like folks that bring up a question that they very well know the answer to, just so they can look smart later on.

Saying "to be honest"

As opposed to?

Or "it's always in the last place you look". Well duh, you're not gonna look for it when you've found it!

"Just lying so you'll shut up and leave me alone, ..." perhaps - but that doesn't really go over as well when you state it right out like that....

That's kind of the point. It's just a tongue-in-cheek jest. Surely not all jesting annoys you?

You should post that in the "Thoughts of the Day" thread.

Don't you just dislike people that use cliches and big words when there is no substance.
