    Someone having food/sauce on their face (this is why I can't eat around children)

    Not talking to me at meals because you're too busy on your phone

    My ex used to leave me sitting alone at restaurants so he could go outside and smoke after dinner before he paid the ticket so I HAD to sit there and wait for him to come back in, and if I asked him not to he acted like a petulant child for the rest of the night.

    I thought of another. When people say "no offence" before saying something offensive, that can be annoying.
    Oh and when people justify saying really hurtful things in the name of honesty. Yes honesty is valued but it's not something I'd aggressively pursue at the cost of someone's feelings.

    It annoys me that both of my children - now adults - became smokers. But that's not a little thing. I think it's huge.

    People who don't turn right on red when it's clear.

    People who don't understand that you can turn left on red from a one-way to a one-way if clear.

    People who go 10+ miles under the speed limit on a road where I can't pass them. Double this annoyance if it's because they are texting/talking on their phone! Minus annoyance if it's because it's a granny or a farm tractor.

    The sound of my husband munching food at night. In bed.

    The crumbs left in my bed from said munching!

    My neighbor's constantly barking dog.

    People who leave 3-4 car lengths in front of them in traffic and then slam on the brakes.

    Colorado Law:
    11.3 FOLLOWING ANOTHER VEHICLE
    (C.R.S. 42-4-1008(1)) FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY
    “The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed of such vehicles and the traffic upon and the condition of the highway.”

    Under normal conditions, use the “THREE SECOND RULE.” Watch the car ahead of you; when it passes a reference point (such as a mile marker, sign or telephone pole) then count “one-thousand-one, one-thousand-two, one-thousand-three.” If you pass the reference point before you finish counting, you are following too closely.
    It is also important to consider weather, road conditions, the amount of traffic, and time of day. If the road is slick, the stopping distance required is greatly increased.



    So.....

    At 20mph (heavy traffic, let's say), that would be.....

    20mph = 20mph * 5280 ft/mi / (60 min/h * 60sec/min) = 29.33 ft/sec
    Using the 3 second count rule would be 29.33 * 3 = 88 feet

    How long is your car? Say 20 feet or so. That's 4 car lengths.

    Hmmmm.....

    They are merely following the law.

    Also when people are shopping at the store I work at and take a piece of clothing out and decide they don't want it so instead of putting it back, they lay it on top of the rack! WHYYYYYYYYYY!

    1. Misspelled words on mfp mainly the word lose. You lose weight or car keys. Your clothes feel loose or you have a screw loose

    2. People in big stoopid trucks parked angled across two parking spaces with gigantic hitch sticking out. Same people driving around like they own the roads. Take it to the mud bog.

    Parents who leash their children. They are small people, not dogs.

    Bad drivers.

    Obviously you have never dealt with a child who hyper out of control. Believe me til he was 5 he was a small animal and since he was no. 3. I know it wasn't me.

    Someone blowing his/her nose at the breakfast, lunch, or dinner table. Yuck!
    ETA: That does end up being a good appetite suppressant for me, though.
