What Annoys You — This or That?
Me? I’m never annoyed by anything!
What annoys you more:
- People who talk loudly on their cell phones in public or people who ignore your texts?
People who talk loudly on their cell phones in public are quite annoying. Actually, people who talk loudly, in general, are annoying. However, I hate when someone ignores my texts. How long does it take to respond? A few seconds, at most — especially if you use the swipe function and auto-type. Depending on what brand of phone you have, I can see when you’ve read it too, so none of this, “When did you text me? I don’t think I even received it.” Bullshit! I see the checkmarks that show that you read it! - Drivers who run up your rear or drivers who drive too slow?
Run up my rear? Well, I uh… Oh! Drivers! Yes, of course. Umm… I can’t stand when slow drivers stay in the left lane. In the U.S. the left lane is the PASSING lane, not the leisurely Sunday drive lane where you especially need to slow down to look at that car wreck that’s on the other side of the median. - Eating at a restaurant that serves excellent food but has lousy service or being invited to someone’s home who can’t cook (and you can’t bring your own)?
As long as the food’s good, I can deal with a bad waiter. If I get too thirsty, I’ll get up and head back to the kitchen…
