What are the small things that annoy you?

Do you have anything silly that annoys you? I just completed a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle---well not really complete because I am missing one piece! I just bought the darn thing too and I can't complete it! I searched everywhere for the missing piece and it has driven me batty. Ugh. Does this drive anyone else crazy or is it just me? What are the things that drive you crazy? I would love to hear your story!

I understand why it annoyed you, especially when you are about to complete a task, and some minor things happen and prevent you from completing the task. Sometimes if it's a big issue, perhaps you can try to solve it. but if it's a tiny problem, and you don't know where and how to solve it, it's really annoying. Well, as for me, I am annoyed quite easily by inconsiderate people. When I want to do my work with my way, but some irrelevant people come and disturb or trouble me, I find it quite annoying, especially if those people are impolite and inconsiderate.

Yes though little things are hard to solve sometimes. I work a lot better with those bigger tasks. I don't like inconsiderate people either and my husband complains about people at work doing the same thing. I hear all about people coming in and telling him how to do his job. The kicker is--he is their boss!

The biggest small thing that annoys me is the sound that people make when they chew, now I don't mean the sound from eating a loud food like potato chips or Jawbreakers. But I really hate when I sit down to a nice dinner with friends and then you start to have a conversation and just hear the person next to you chewing with there mouth open.. and thats the one small thing that just gets on my NERVES

That's a good one. I can't stand that either and my family thinks they have to do this everytime we eat!

That can be annoying too. My cable company does my phone and internet also and every once in a while it will go out. Everything will restart and it will take 20 to a half hour most of the time. It's still annoying but I think I have a bigger problem with missing items still.
