Random Annoyances
When I went to Israel my peer trainer loved to talk. She talked all the time. Even when she was chewing. The amount of food on the table was startling.People that chew with their mouth open. It's pretty gross and I can't sit next to them while eating.
When our kids (we have 5 of them) were younger and were out and about with them, people would always ask if they were all ours. Uhhh, nope just found some stragglers while shopping decided to take them with us. Of course they're ours?!?!
People who call popcorn, "popping corn"
The state of Kansas.

That's a person that wants everyone to know they are a donkey. I avoid donkeys whenever possible.

I just sit there and stare until they back up.
Going through the coffee drive thru and ordering a bunch of food, so now everyone is stuck waiting. If you have a big order go inside

People conducting their whole month’s banking at the ATM. Ten separate transactions, and all I want to do is withdraw some quick cash.
I’ve put my car in park and sat there for over 60 seconds once. Apparently she had less to do that day than I did. And she still had the nerve to curse me out like I was the idiot driving the wrong way.
Lol, I know and appreciate all of this because my wife was an English/Shakespearean Literature major in college and after 27 years of marriage, I’m now painfully attuned to common misuses of the English language. I see and hear it everywhere including from TV news anchors.
In no particular order—
Volume 1,
1/ People who slurp coffee or tea into their mouth ,, it’s not a vacuum pump , just pour it in , lift your elbow or hand higher, you know it’s hot ,.. geez
2/ We have on street parking , not many home have garage. So people who cannot park in alignment with their own property or take up 1.5 spaces because they are inconsiderate , inept, or don’t own a license because lam certain
having a license , is contingent on understanding spatial awareness and other vehicles on the road .
3/ When you return a sand bucket , empty it then stack it , it saves compacting the sand down like road base , and you can stack more buckets ….
4/ Not cleaning shoes ,mine are always clean it takes less than a few minutes to clean and shine them.
5/ Leaving a rubbish bin in the street several days after they have been picked up … you walk past it every day , it’s not going to relocate itself back in your property.
6/ Leaving coffee cups on shelves when your retail shopping ,particularly in bigger store’s, people to lazy to drop it in a in a bin
7/ People who walk , and spend their time looking at the mobile phone screen or iPad or equivalent. And they bump into you … people there’s a new app it’s called your eyes , no App Store or batteries required. Watch where your going, only a few people need to watch screens , Airplane pilots , etc.. the rest of you don’t.
To be continued lol

It’s even more amazing when you read online news sites (even the major ones) and see how sloppy and/or illiterate a lot of the contributors are. Typos and grammatical errors everywhere, I guess editors (at least good ones) are a thing of the past.Lol, I know and appreciate all of this because my wife was an English/Shakespearean Literature major in college and after 27 years of marriage, I’m now painfully attuned to common misuses of the English language.

Alas poor engrish, l knew it well ….. hahahhahahhaLol, I know and appreciate all of this because my wife was an English/Shakespearean Literature major in college and after 27 years of marriage, I’m now painfully attuned to common misuses of the English language.

Speaking of journalists , there appears to be a growing tread of individual opinion, being introduced or integrated into a reported story ie : news . Do not offer your point of view , or opinion, deliver the facts , and the concise story. I will consider those and formulate my own opinion independent and without bias from yours.

After a “firm” or perhaps not the smoothest landing, which happens every now and then, some passenger feels the need to stick their head in the cockpit and make somy wise ass comment like “must of been a Navy pilot” or “rough night”. How about I come to your job and mock you.

Been muttering and crabbing to my wife's annoyance at the NFL broadcast network that puts a white dash right beside the team's score to indicate possession.
Who on earth has ever, upon glancing at a football game, been confused for even a fleeting moment about which team currently possesses the ball? It's only displayed on the screen when the teams are on the field. On top of that, the team on the left appears to have a negative score.
I guess it's a carryover from the update shows where, if you're not watching that game, sure, you might want to know about it. It's just so unnecessary during a live game that it bugs me because I can't imagine who thought of it.
