I know we all have one, that thing that people do the just irritates the heck out of you when your in public. That thing that makes you want to walk over and nail them with a stun gun so they just stop doing that thing.
Me, its others eating habbits in resturants and so on. I love to dine out, but i hate eating around other people.. why? Obnoxious eaters, the kind who make all kinds of grose noises when they eat. They eat with there mouths open wide making all kinds of nasty nashing noises and other noises i dont even know how to spell out. The kind that act like there food is going to run away if they dont scarf it down in 10 seconds or less. Its the noises of othe reating that makes me lose my appitite, am i wierd? I dont think so, i just prefer propper edicit when eating and not obnoxious feasting like i will never se the food again.
There probably a few other things i could think of that people do to strum on that last nerve of mine, but what gets at you? vent your peaves and let me know your insight on those things that just make you nutty.

Cell phones, everywhere, all the time. Some people can't be without them. You can't talk to them, you can't get their attention, they're on cell phones. Some of them make real jerks of themselves in public loudly enough for anyone to hear. It's absolutely amazing. Everthing in moderation, including cell phones. But instead, everything overboard including cell phones. Take care

One thing that gets on my nerves is when I see a mother yelling at her child at the top of her lungs or hitting her children. I was in Walmart last week and some woman was yelling that her kid was embarrassing her. I wanted to tell her that it wasn't the child that was the embarrassment, but that it was her making a fool out of herself.

Ah yes, how ignorant people can be. Although it is annoying when a kid is in walmart screaming there heads of over a toy or what have you, its not right for the parent to scream and cuss at the child in the middle of the store. Children can be taught obediance much easier without yelling or physical harm.
I also hate it when parents yell and swear all kinda of cruel things at there child when at home, i used to live in a big city and i heard a lady across the street with a foul mouth always screaming about dumb stuff at her kids. I of course eventually went over and repremanded her poor and ignorant behaviour.

I hate it when people walk directly in your path and expect you to move out of the way for them like they're some kind of king/queen or something. They walk directly at you. I want to just keep going and bump right into them--hard!

I hate it when people are rude. Ok, I am a woman, and If someone holds the door open for me I say thank you. And I hold the door open for anyone, man, woman, whatever. Why is it so hard t o say thank you? I mean, it isnt my obligation to hold the door, I am just being nice, Also, when you go to a public place and people who work in "CUSTOMER SERVICe" are rude...I hate that, if you dont like people maybe you shouldnt work there, I mean you know you are going to be dealing with people. I just really hate rude people. I am also with you on the food thing. I mean who cares how you eat at home, but have some manners in public!

oh yes you hit home with the common courtesy. I am one of the types who holds open doors, i say thank you when someone does it for me. Sometimes i feel like just closing the door in some rude persons face one of these times.
I cant agree more with the customer service bit too. Ive delt with those types who act like its the end of the world they have to do their job and help about something, Geeesh
