You have made quite a list here. Enjoyed reading it. Other than those listed above I think the one habit that I get very very angry about is when a friend is online and the minute I say Hi he/she immediately goes offline. I dont know why but this makes me very very angry. For me it means that the person is saying I DONT WANT TO TALK TO YOU......And when if happens too often with one particular person I think I should be taking the hint...

I hate all of those, frankly. They are obnoxious! people lack civic sense so much so that they do not know even how to conduct themselves in cocktail parties or when in a hospital! This is funny sometimes. Now, can you imagine someone in her part dress in hospital and behaving like a teenager when she's in 40ties!
I really appreciate your gesture to correct your friends. Ideally that should be it. But in case of strangers we can correct them only to be frowned at, in most cases.
Thanks.

LOL! I caanot stop laughing after reading your post. You have really compiled a comprehensive list of habits, which can irritate any one (me including). However, you cannot ask everyone to amend his/her habits. It is easier said than done. You require a diplomatic skill to convey that his/hers particular habit is disturbing and he/she refrain from it. Many people take it very seriously and may retaliate. I think I try to convey my friends about their bad habits, if any, in a polite and courteous manner, so as not to offend them.
What about you, how do you convey about bad habits to your friends?

It is a wise idea to talk to your friends in private about their bad habits, this way you can convey your 'message', without offending them. I know you are wise enough in this respect.

far*ting, is quite annoying, my husband does this all the time, I say something to him about it but he still does it.
Yawning loudly is very annoying, I worked with a woman who would yawn so loud, you could hear her all over the office.
Laughing loudly on the phone at work, while taking a personal phone, when they should be working, same lady that yawns does this also.
spitting on the street, hate when people do that, children pick things up and put their hands in their mouth, so spitting is a nasty habit.
Just to name a few

the one thing i can't stand is people that bring their kids out in public and don't teach them to behave. my mother made sure before she started taking me out in public that i knew how to behave. i didn't throw my food on the floor. i didn't climb out of my chair just to sit on the FILTHY floor underneath the table. parents think it's cute and it's not. you are not the only people in the world and it's a public place. what goes on in your house is not necessarily okay to do in public. if you have children and they misbehave take them home. if i acted up my mom would just take me home and i learned my lesson.
