Oh wow, I could go on for days.

-People who talk on the phone while driving and nearly mow me and the boy down.

-Asspets that like to cut me off while I'm driving. It makes it doubly worse because I'm already tense from having to shift gears. :P

-The weather is irritating me right now. Why the eff is it only 3 degrees outside?

-Not having money. That's another irritation.

Dammit, why'd you have to start this thread? :D

Friends who start a conversation with "so what's going on" instead of "hello".

People who use the "f" word every third word. (I can't stand F-word fillers)

Cell phones on the bus.

Store employees who constantly ask if I need any help.

Phrases that irritate me:

"Hey, working hard or hardly working."

" First and foremost." ....if it's first there is nothing in front of it which makes it foremost. no need to say both.

" Man, it's really coming down out there."....Hey dipwad, did you ever see it go up?

The biggest things that iiritate me are when people combine words. I want to strangle anyone who utters the
words; Chillax, Fantabulous or Ginormous.  >:(  >:(

Yeah, I hate it when that happens. Happened last week to me with both hands full of tools...

I can't stand people who walk around in public and don't look where they are going... they always seem to find me, and I always resist the urge to shoulder check them into the ground. One day though, one day...


um, i got you a supersized combo of shut the fudge up, Ashcroft.

  ME: on Monday you stupid idiot...why else would he ask if you were around on that day?  Geesh was that really a difficult question?

Or, my car is in the parking lot attached to a department car with jumper cables and a coworker asks...TQ is there something wrong with your car?  NO THIS IS HOW CARS HAVE SEX!  ::)

Somedays I got no tolerance for nothing.

It's the little things that irritate me like when I'm walking into the entrance at work and the girl behind me is on her stupid phone and looks like she's expecting me to hold the door for her.  ;D  no friggin way!  get off the phone & use your own hand to open the door (unless she's hot) 
old people driving in the car just ahead of me. they have one speed. 45mph &  no matter what road or freewway they're on, it's 45mph

here's another that irritates the heck out of me. why must the cashiers at stores & food places give you the change and bills that are in the worst condition or wrote on or ripped or the pennies & silver are corroded.  that sucks because they're just gonna be depositing into the bank anyway.
this thread is getting me too hyped up and thinking about all the sh*t I don't like.

Clogneedles!

My slightly psycho friend David coined that term. A highway is like a needle: long and thin. People who clog the highway by driving side by side at the same (slow) speed are "clogging the needle", hence, "clogneedles".

Since we're on the topic of traffic at the moment, something else that irritates me: using turn signals does not give you the right-of-way. Nice, yes, forgotten art, possibly, but hitting that lever on your steering column doesn't magically or instantly create a vehicle sized gap in traffic for one to pull into.

some supermarket/grocery stores have installed self serve checkout which is what I use when I can, and I hate when a parent has to let their child try to scan each item like it was a game, and then let them try to slide the debit card & punch in the pin.  you can see everyone in line getting visibly annoyed and the parent making sure to not show any concientiouness or courtesy for the other waiting customers.  >:(
