What makes me angry is when i have told someone what is important to me and they go right ahead and do something that they know is hurtful to me. Or, the injustice in a situation will drive me crazy! I do get angry when people lie right to my face. Or when people disrespect me.

I agree. The snowball effect of lies only makes matters worse. I know someone who does this on a very regular basis. Like this person thinks we aren't smart enough at our house to figure out her lies. We have known her for many years since she's a neighbor and some people never change.
Something else that made me furious was when I helped a couple of friends financially when they were in major binds. It's been like pulling teeth to get the money back. As a result, I wouldn't consider them friends any longer. A friend won't make promises they can't keep and continue to lie about the repayment agreement. One finally paid me in full but the other is still doing monthly payments. I learned a valid lesson never to do this again.

Oh... the list is endless!
1. Stupid people pretending to be intelligent
2. People betraying my trust. I easily trust people but once I am betrayed, well... tough luck! The damage has been done.
3. People badmouthing other people. As if I care! As if they're perfect! Like duh!
4. Corrupt system. This really makes me angry. Lack of integrity and fair treatment within any organization will leave a pang of demotivation and low self esteem to its members
5. Whiner or cry babies - It's okay to dwell on the problems for a limited coarse ot=f time. But not forever! Hell, no! There is a time for moping, but hello! There is a lot of times to dwell more on the positive side of life!
THese are just my thoughts...
Smile!

What makes me really angry is people who have no common sense what so ever! It is like people who no common sense have no brain! Believe me I work with a lot of college students who are like that! Older people are the same way,sometimes! When someone doesn't think,no matter if it has to with,I really hate that! Examples,drivers who don't use their signal lights! People who have kids when they shoudn't! Things like that!

Hi jugsjugs, yah liars could be pretty annoying to talk to sometimes. Or should I say all the time. I mean it's like wasting your time and it would annoy you even more just thinking that he seems to not be even sorry and just lies to you again like it's something normal.
But sometimes there are exceptions, like when someone lies at you for the good of everyone.. It's a case to case basis I guess.

I agree on the lying. I have lived with a compulsive liar and I can't tell you how difficult it is. It totally erodes your trust in a person when you can never be sure they are EVER going to tell you the truth about anything. The person I've been with, when confronted, would always lie first. Then, if I caught him in the lie, he would eventually admit to the truth but he said his instinct is always to lie to give himself time to figure out how to stay out of trouble or to hope that he won't actually get caught at all. Since that experience, I've come to despise liars. I think everyone "fibs" or tells "little white lies" from time to time (usually to protect someone's feelings) but to outright lie at every turn is unforgiveable in my books.

Yes, deception is a biggie. It shows little regard for the individual lied to.
I'm also easily upset by folks who use stereotyping to define a person and you can throw the word 'typical' into it as well. Its a word that has no place.
ENJOY!
