What kind of people annoy you?

February 13, 2009 5:36pm CST
I seem to get annoyed by certain types of people. One of them are people who pretend they are listening to you but you know they are waiting for you to finish talking so they can tell you what they have to say and not interested in what you have to say. I also get annoyed by queue jumpers if that is the right word. I could list a few but what kind of people annoy you? I'm interested as I know we all get annoyed by different things as my partner does not get annoyed at people who annoy me.

I get annoyed by people who are critical of others. I also become annoyed with people who thing they are always right. People who think that their point of view is the ONLY possible correct point of view. What is a "queue jumper"?

oh, okay, i get it. here we just call them "lines" and "line jumpers". yep, that makes me mad too. it's as if they think they are more imporant than everyone else or that manners don't have to apply to them.

People who jump the queues, when I am standing in a queue someone who pushes in front of me. That really annoys me!

I have to agree with what you said about people who dont listen. Especially the ones who cut you right off and start talking and they havent heard a word you say. They make their convo seem so important and dont even acknowledge what you say...I know a few people like this and I dont even like talking because I feel like I have to talk fast to get in what I want to say to them.. Also, liars annoy me..Especially when you know they are not telling the truth about something that you are positive about. People who are full of themselves annoy me too. What makes one person any better than another?

When people don't acknowledge what you say you don't feel like saying anymore whats the point? I don't understand liars what is the point of that too! Some liars forget what they lied about and that is even more stupid because they should at least remember what they lied about. People who are full of themselves annoy me too, I have a friend on facebook like that and I've thought about removing her as I get annoyed when I see her photos but I can't help looking at them!

hehehehe...I know what you mean about looking at peoples pics on facebook that we dont really even like much. I think its in most of us...Its part of human curiosity I think and becomes a habit to see what antics they are up to now..It may even be a little amusing!!

people who annoy me the most are those type of people who donot like to mind thier own business and are interested very much to know what is happening in others life.as we all know there are people who are really very keen to know what is new in others life and i really fail to understand what they get out of it.this really annoys me and second thing i donot like is when i am talking to someone politely and that person replies rudely i get annoyed at this as well that when i am polite then why are you rude to me.anyways there so many things which really annoys everyone and they all have different things in thier list which annoys them so it varies from one person to another.

Queue jumpers, especially old person, annoy me the most. They would jump in the general queue, even though there is a separate queue for senior citizens. The second category of people would be of the kind who pretend that they know everything under the sun. Whatever new thing you try to tell them, they would be like, "yeah, I know" or "Of course, I've heard about it. It's and old thing now". And if you penetrate them deeper on that topic, they would say that ,"Oh, it's just slipped off my mind"

I know people like that. Everything you do they have done better! Very annoying!

People who annoy me are people that think that they are all that but they really arnt. I also dont like chicks that think they are hot and try to be and people that try to fit into a group of friends that they really dont belong in.

More particularly, I get annoyed by the people, who ignore human ethical values. Above all, as human beings we must get ourselves well equiped with social as well as human ethical values that keeps us and our generations in the most appropriate track of 'Peace, Progress & Prosperity'. Besides this, there is hardly any difference between us and the wild animals! Thanks for this nice discussion and have a good day!

I think sometimes it can be understanding. Perhaps they are not interested in your topics, but they try to be polite to you and therefore they pretend to listen to you. In my opinion, I don't like the people who tell lies all the time. Sometimes it's not very difficult to find their lies. If you tell one lie, you have to create 10 lies to cover it and therefore it's easy to find out the bugs. I love China

Generally, people are annoying and this is very normal. I try to stay away from people I cannot get along with. Nobody cares for what you say, everybody only cares for what they can get from you. People are people. Cheers!!

Rude people annoy me, and people that judge other people without knowing them but normally I try not to let other people get under my skin, because we cant control other people we can only control yourself, and we shouldn't waste our energy on those who just dont get it, and allow them to take away our positive energy.

Queue jumpers annoy me as well! I go to college a couple of days now and then, and when people jump the queue at lunch time it drives me mad! Seriously mad! I can be stood there for a long time, yet people who came after me jump the queue and get right to the front. People who don't listen to me drive me mad. & People with 'facebook anger' .. you know the type. The type who write angry messages on facebook statuses without a thought about the thousands of people who can read them..when will they realise WE DONT CARE.

At this point my fiance annoys me- he starts complaining as soon as he walks in the door, he says I'm not understanding enough, he checks my cell phone to see who has called and then asks me what the person calling wanted.... just him being a control freak and treating me like he doesnt trust me

That kinds of people you're talking about annoys me, too. I'm also annoyed to people who doesn't know how to appreciate and they're just taking someone for granted. You know, when someone has all the effort and everything to make him/her happy and the other one just accepts and accepts and don't even say a little thank you. It's just frustrating to know people like that.

People that annoy me are those who thing they are better than everyone else. So not sure if that is considered self centered or ego centrical or not but those people get on my nerves. Your not any better than anyone else. We are all different and unique and have value just as you do. :)

People who are an authority on everything annoy the heck out of me. No matter what the subject is, they're experts...and are usually wrong. I also actively try to avoid the wife of one of my husband's friends because she has to top everything. If something happens that's good, something better happened to her. If it was bad, she had it worse. I played with her once and told her that I was only getting a ten cent raise due to budget cuts at work....she told me that she was getting a pay cut.

I really don't like people who are bitter, ungrateful, always looking for attention, who constantly brag, people who think they know everything, people who like they are making it but aren't and cheap people who have the money not to be cheap!
