An Irritating List

There are a lot of things that irritate me. Really. This list probably way outnumbers the items that DON'T. Here is just a partial listing. Please feel free to add any that I may have forgotten.

1. Waiters that dump glasses of ice water in a customer's purse.
2. Oprah having a show where she keeps showing celebrities doing normal things and then saying over and over, "see! this is the common bond that we all share! We all put on pants, we all poop!" (okay, I added the poop part, but she was thinking it!)
3. People at your workplace talking on and on about their relationship with their boyfriend. And, how after two whole months together they are going to counseling. And, everytime said boyfriend calls the workplace, girl grimaces and says, "tell him I'm not here."
4. Meetings that should not last more than an hour, lasting for two and a half hours. For no reason, other than some people in attendance blathering on about themselves.
5. Electric bills being twice as high as you expected.
6. A Colonoscopy. (no, I did not have one but know someone who did. It sounded quite irritating. Especially to a sphinctery area of the body!)
7. School projects. I swear if one of my kids comes home one more time this year and says he needs to take baby pictures of himself I will go all apeshit on a teacher. I now have baby pictures scanned into my computer and we print as needed.
8. John Mayer. I'm sorry but I am really tired of your songs on the radio. They were probably enjoyable at one point but now sound like nails on a chalkboard.
9. Homeless people begging in the rain. And, when you give them an umbrella STICK IT UNDER THEIR ARM. And, you realize them standing in the rain makes them look more sorrowful and needy. Uh, can I have my umbrella back then?
