Things YOU Do That Annoy Others

It seems, just post.

Don't sell yourself short, it is also when you talk on that GabCast!

I was at school with May, gifted pianist. Friend of mine grew up in same village as Clarkson and knew him well.

I quite enjoy May's intelligent style of silliness. He's also very good at explaining things. Clarkson often sells his smarts short for a laugh or explosion, but turning around Top Gear with Andy Wilman and promoting that brand certainly required him to have some sort of brilliance.

I'm a hoarder. Not the we used to have a cat dear god what is that smell kind of hoarder but I have a hard time letting things go.

I do that with stuff too. Lots of old magazines and random devices that I acquired thinking "Oh, I could fix this and use it for [whatever]" and then got too lazy to bother with.

I also like to tell people "one second, I gotta take this" and then pick up a random object like a phone and go "hello?" Then follow it with mock laughter.

It's more complicated than that. Yes, there are a few whom you annoy when you post and then there's everyone else. 

Every time you annoy a troll, a flying mythological anachronism gets its wings.

I will try to increase my annoyance factor for my favs.

A lingering cough as well as a throat clear before each sentence would be fab.
Thanks.
Smooches.

I do try to curtail that... but it is something you will have to over look. I have had four surgeries to my trachea. It is as good as it is going to get.

Call the show, let's hear your voice.

You actually do that? I just remember you sounding grumpy. Like you need a hug.
Do you need a hug?

I'm good thanks.

[Bart Ell]

I'm good thanks.

Ok, if you say so. Just know I have hugs.
Lots and lots of hugs to soothe what ails you.

So best friends, right?

Baby steps.
Don't get all clingy right after I offer a nice, soothing hug.

No worries on the cling. Never gonna happen.

I'm always 15 mins. late.  Even if I start getting ready 15 mins. early to counteract it.

In my late teens we used to go boozing in our local pub and always always told one of our number we'd be there 30 minutes before we arranged with each other because he was always late....and was still 30 minutes late.

A former friend of mine used to do this all the time as a way of maintaining control over situations (he was a control freak).  The plan would be usually to meet at X or Y's house, or at the parking lot at a certain theater.  Usually he'd call 5 minutes before his alleged arrival time to announce he'd be 20 minutes late, which would often throw off the schedule if we had planned on seeing a movie and then getting dinner.  One time, he was severely late and didn't even bother to call, so the rest of us just proceeded without him.  He eventually caught up with us, and boy was he mad.

Antics such as the aforementioned are partly why I no longer associate with the dude.

I knew a girl who did this constantly. One time, I came over to pick her up for a party and she was actually all ready to leave ahead of time. So I suggested we head out. She said "no, not yet." I asked if she was ready, to which she replied yes. Then I asked why we couldn't leave. She said "I like to be fashionably late."

Last time I ever picked her up.

I wonder if any bellgabber has had the audacity to leave an upper decker.

I do not believe in karma... but that would bring on some karma.

I think it may be time for some adult diapers unless it's intentional.

That's a pet peeve of mine because I am always punctual. My brother and his wife are big culprits and no matter how much earlier we tell them to come in order to counteract their tardiness they are always late. On the flip side my wife's grandmother is a notorious early comer which can be equally as annoying. I have seen her sitting in her car outside our house up to an hour before the start time of a particular event.

   No matter how much I dance and prance, the last nine drops go down my pants.

[Mr. Fidget]

Misunderstand the question.
   A distant past example would be in the Puyallup fairsgrounds restroom, where my misunderstanding created embarrassment... accidentally.
   I was washing my hands on the way out. I had my headphones on, and (nearly inaudible to me) heard an older gentleman, pointing to the round basin handwashing sink, ask me if it "worked."
   It was the kind of sink that puts water out 360° into a round troth basin, accommodating half a dozen people symaltainiosly.
   I quickly replied "yes, you just wave your hand and the water turns on." And as I started towards the door, three steps later I noticed in my peripheral vision he was about to take a leak in the sink.
   I just kept trucking, as others were entering, realizing a few moments too late... he did not say "does that work?" he said... "is that a urinal?"

I am sure it annoyed him, and the people going in.
ps. Best I could do in the lavatory humor department, true story.

Could be, I've got oodles of the stuff.  But usually I'm just late because a particularly good episode of Bait Car is on.

Haven't tried this, but I've always wanted to put some sort of coloring agent in the upper tank so that when someone flushes the liquid resembles blood.

Yeah. What's up with that? Golden years.
