What is your biggest annoyance?

Guys, what usually annoys or irritates you so much? For me, it's asking the same question by the same person over and over even if I already answered it. Isn't that just annoying? What about you?

What annoys me is a barking dog, especially at night and I'm trying to sleep, we have some neighbors that live across from us, and their dogs bark all night long, and its hard to sleep. We have dogs but ours are quiet, they know not to bark at night, and if they do, my husband will go out and tell them to hush, and they will, but the ones across the road sure won't, to me thats annoying.

I wonder why their dogs are barking like that, are they hungry or something? Maybe, they're just too used with the barking of their dogs that they could sleep tight even with that noise. Maybe, you guys could ask them if they could kindly see what the problems with their dogs at night, maybe they wouldn't mind if you complain about that. After all, it's their dogs that's annoying everyone.

Oh, that's really annoying, sorry to hear that. Maybe, you could tell you neighbor politely to hush their dog 'cause their bothering the neighbors. I hope they're sensitive enough to notice that.

I don't know if they notice or not, it sounds like they have a whole pack of dogs and they're barking all at the same time, we don't know how they can sleep at night with those dogs doing that, surely if we can hear them they can.

It's the people who complain all the time about something someone does, but they do it themselves. If you point it out, they get all bent out of shape and furious at you. Like adulterers who point out everyone who's cheating on their spouse, and ringing it all over town, but see nothing wrong with they themselves doing it. Or even just leaving shopping carts out in the parking lot. They scream bloody murder about it, then shove their cart off to the side when they're done shopping. I just don't get it!

I think we have the same views to this. but I think even comfronted with this kind of situation again, we should learn how to be patient. This is part of life, people are different.And for us to avoid misunderstandings with people.

My husbands biggest annoyance is the listening of anyone chewing food especially the crunching of potato chips or anything crunchier and gum chewing. Right now my biggest annoyance is my husband!!!

Lol! I know sometimes the chewing sound is annoying but I'm not annoyed with the sound of crunching potato chips. That's a bit weird.

I don't like that either, in fact I don't answer. I'll answer anything once but if I remember that I answered it I will not do it again. On mylot that makes it hard on the newbies, because so many of them ask the same old questions, but i was going crazy answering over and over.

Yeah, every new user has the same questions and sometimes, it's so tiring to repeat what you had said to this user to another one.

What annoys me most is when some people refuse to walk into the rear of public buses when it's still empty and hold up the time of other passengers, and inconsiderate smokers who blow their smoke onto my face. I am also irritated by pedestrians walking on the road without looking what is in front of them or walking slowly and hogging the road delaying people behind them.

Yeah, I hate that too..specially people who smoke and don't even care to the people around them. second hand smoking is as bad as smoking itself

Loosing things! Or rather putting things in a "safe" place then not remembering where the safe place is!!! I am still looking for my sons cell phone that was put somewhere before Christmas!!

It's really annoying when things like that happen. Well, I hope you'll find the "safe" place and have your son's cellphone soon.

I would find it annoying if somebody kept repeating the same idea to me. Saying it a second time would be fine but a third and a fourth time is already annoying. Cheers!!

Hi, yes that can be annoying to ask the same question over and over again. What annoys me is when someone tries to sugar coat something with me. They will say something to me, but I know that they really meant something else. I hate it when a person will not tell me the truth. I dislike it when a person goes around trying to figure me out. I don't like it when a person makes accusations about me, without even asking me themselves. I dislike it when a person, tries to be something that they are not. I dislike it when a person tells a lie on me or spreads untrue rumors about me. I really dislike it when someone compares me to another person, in a mean and critical way. I hate it when a person tries to place me into competition with another person. I don't like it when a person tries to be so nosy and trys to ask me questions that is not none of their business. I dislike it when a person tries to act like they are better than me, when they are not! I get very annoyed with people who are mean, selfish, and nasty in behavior and tongue.

Hello my dear the_dutchess Ji, Upto certain extent, I am fine with mutual understanding. But my hubby always gets early excited and reacts, whatever he does not find in order. As per him, everything should be in presentable way. Even, if he goes into bath-room, no stray cloths should appear. In Kitchen, he should be able to locate even knife/matches in darkness. He applies his discipline of Army every where. May God bless You and have a great time.

Same here, someone asking the same question over and over at a very short interval. And not just any question. Take this, someone asked me if I am already pregnant. (Well, it's because I am married for almost five years and do not have a child yet). then after a week, I saw the same person and again asked me if I am already pregnant. Isn't that annoying?

People that don't listen in class and then wait till just before the end to ask a bunch of questions which, if they'd been listening, they'd know the answers to so consequently we're all let out late to lunch / break / home.

Umm lol I have a lot of annoyances. But I would have to say the biggest would be when people answer questions with question. I swear I just want to go out in an outrage when people do that. Especially when it's not even called for at all. Why can't you just answer the question? It's not that hard.

Aside from stupidity and shallowness I cannot stand it when people don't listen! I have found that here I am talking to someone and, by the way I don't think I am a person who talks a real lot, the person is clearly not interested in a word I am saying; he or she is looking away or interrupts while I'm in mid sentence. It is so rude! My mother is the biggest culprit followed closely by my husband! I take it very personally when people do that, it makes me feel bad about myself and I have to question whether I am boring.

I'd have to say one of the things that annoys the most is when I finally lay down to go to sleep and the dog decides he wants to lick himself. That constant slurpy, lapping sound can't really get on my nerves for some reason.
