Things That Irk Me: Vol. 1, Everything

Things that irk the hell out of me (in no particular order):

♦ "Younger" people who insist on calling me and everyone else "Hun," "Sweetie," etc. "Hi Hun, I can help you." "Hey Sweetie, do you need anything?" Blah, blah, blah … Why the hell is your 25 year-old behind calling that 60 year-old woman "Hun?" Whatever happened to "Ma'am?" Goodness ...

♦ Those who find the need to text/email/call/etc. people when their birthday is coming up or has arrived. "Just a reminder, my birthday is in 17 days!" "The 'Countdown to my BIRTHDAY' has begun!" "Hey people, it's my birthday today!" Losers. What, are you afraid that the MySpace and Facebook birthday alerts won't be enough of a warning? If you have to tell folks it's your birthday in order to get that shout out that you're so desperately seeking, something's wrong. Losers ...

♦ People who can't seem to turn off their dang turn signal. I understand turning it on when switching lanes or veering to one direction and I thank you for that, but turn the sucker off once you've done one of those things. If you just switch lanes or veer to one direction when "turning," chances are that thing's NOT going to go off by itself. After 10, 15+ minutes of driving, why have you not figured out that you need to turn it off? I mean goodness, can you not seeing it blinking out the corner/bottom/top/whatever of your eyes? Idiots ...


♦ Idiots. I can't even elaborate on that ...

♦ Those birds perched in that tree RIGHT outside of my bedroom window that chirp their little hearts out at the crack of dawn EVERY doggone day. Those things sound like they're chillin' on the pillow next to me. Man, I wish they'd just wait until at least 9 ...

♦ People who take their jobs too seriously. Those who live and breathe work. Who have NO life outside of it. Get a hobby ... 


♦ People who can analyze and give the best advice/know what so and so should do in every situation, but are unable to take a deep look at themselves. Those who are unable to find ANY fault in themselves and who are unwilling to even listen to the opinions of others when it concerns them. No one said that they had to FOLLOW said advice/opinions, but they could at least listen ...

♦ When someone lacks a sense of humor. Crack a smile every now and then ...

♦ People, who when asked to pronounce their name, say "It doesn't matter …" How the hell does it NOT matter? Your parent(s) (whom I assume named you) pronounce it the "correct" way, right? So how does it not matter? I wish I would say "It doesn't matter" when people ask me that and then be called "Alecia (Uh-Lee-See-Uh)." *raised eyebrow* Uhhh, no ...

♦ Whatever the heck is outside that is rattling up again my bedroom wall and annoying THE HELL out of me every night ...
