Since everybody is different and react to things differently. What are the things that people do that irritates and annoys you? Are you learning to reverse it? How?

For me, I am a person who live by the schedule and plan. If I have planned to do something and suddenly, there's a change in plans, I get very annoyed. For example, if I have planned to cook dinner for a group of people and bought all the ingredients, ready to cook, when I'm about to prepare the food, people tell me that they are not coming. That annoys me!

I get annoyed when I am being rushed and I get very irritated with people who have no common courtesy and are rude! Last night my wife and I were shopping at Walmart looking for dog treats and a man and his daughter stood right in front of the dog treats talking with someone at the end of the aisle and he was completely oblivious to the fact that he was standing right in our way. Had to say excuse me twice before he moved and he acted like he was doing us a favor by getting out of the way. :mad:

People getting their way when they behave badly. They should be kicked out of wherever they are, not catered to.

People assuming they know what I really want when I have clearly stated otherwise, or just trying to make decisions for me in general.

Waiting for a "big" group of people to decide something small, I can usually have it completed in the time it takes them to figure out what to do.

Oh and being sick and turning into a snot factory (anyone need some? I've got plenty right now.)

Already been said, but I can't stand when kids have tantrums in public and the parents don't do anything about it. Also dislike when people take their slow time doing something, and they see you trying to go past them. Also, as someone that bikes, I don't like how drivers seem to (most of the time) ignore bikers. I can't tell you how many times part of me wanted them to hit me just so I could prove a point and make them pay out of pocket for damages..

Because I work in a doctor's office, people who show up late to their appt. Also, when a caller wants an appt, I give them the times I have available, but then they ask for a time I didn't list at all. -_-

Or! When I say the schedule is completely booked, they ask, "So you don't have anything???" What did I just say?! -_- lol

I like that you also added, Are you learning to reverse it?
When I was a wee tacker it was my sister. We were just so different and didn't know how to handle one another. She, a raging extrovert, me an introvert to the core, and both pubertying out the wazoo.
My dad, wise old man that he is, told me one day, you don't have to be annoyed. You choose to let yourself be.
Now, while I'd disagree at the outset, I would assert that remaining annoyed is a choice.
For me these days its having my work or work ethic publicly questioned and criticised without any data to back it up. That gets me going pretty immediately, but these days I actively try to bring it to God as quickly as possible.
God's pretty awesome and helps me calm right down. Thank you very much fruits of the spirit :)

When you're annoyed, pray the Lord's prayer and see what happens when you get to, forgive our sins as we forgive others ;)

I am annoyed when:

People ride my tail in traffic
People turn without using a turn signal....thanks for the warning
People tell me how I feel
People use others for their own entertainment/pleasure/(fill in other selfish motive)
People feel the need to control the behavior of the entire world
Dogs bark a lot--especially little yippy dogs
My projection system at work has a slight tilt that I can't seem to correct
Florescent lighting is the only lighting option
Lots of competing noise happens at once
People harp on everything wrong and ignore what's right
People make long lists :p

I am annoyed on:

People think that just because I'm into silly humor. Think I'm mentally slow.

People think they can convict me without a trail.

A Negative Nancy. Doesn't have anything good to say about anything or anyone.

Nosy people.

Whenever someone complains about the homeless being on the streets, yet never bothers to do anything for them.

People that always gripe and moan about every single inconvenience in their lives. Yet, practically live in luxury from head to toe.

People that complain about not having any friends, yet don't take nothing to do with others.

Whenever I'm friends with someone who is female and it's assumed were dating.

That's to name a few. :p

When people don't drive the speed limit, but even worse when someone pulls in front of me and then proceeds to drive slowly :mad:. Also, when people have 50 items in the express lane and even though it's not a ''people'' issue, when I microwave something and half of it is like lava and the other half is still frozen lol :confused:.

A lot annoys me.

One is when people belch. I can handle it from time to time, but......when it's done constantly, I just become so irritated.
