    Cracking knuckles or other parts of your body, makes my skin crawl

    What if I can't help it? I'm a creaky, noisy *kitten* sometimes. I have noisy *kitten* joints. Can't sneak up on NOBODY barefoot :sad:

    ETA: Oh, and I'm a serial SLURPER. Love to SLURP to the last drop.

    It's not a word, but if it were a word, it would be "irRegardless."

    Serously, it makes me cringe when I hear that word.



    ^^^^^^THIS!! This one drives me NUTS!!

    This is a little different than the other complaints; however, I find that the "duck face" trend is what is going to cause me to become unglued. I just want to slap them when I see the pictures all over Facebook!!!!!!!!!!!

    Your title says Erks my nerves... it really should just be. It really gets on my nerves, or it really irks me when... or even it really annoys me when...

    irks my nerves just... no. Things like this irk me beyone belief.


    And spelling errors in novels. I sent a letter to an editor once because of the novel I was reading, I included a copy with every spelling error and incorrect punctuation in the novel.

    When people have to post/comment more than once to get their point across! You're Point was well token,
    That seriously IRKS me. :wink:

    Oh there you are. Have you chosen colors yet?

    Right now I'm seeing lots of colors, but let me think about it. I really love purple! Like, maybe different shades of purple on eeeeverything. Whaddaya think?

    Purple is my favorite color. A nice deep purple. Or maybe that's the smoke talking to me. I could have a purple cummerbund and tie. Like this:

    Oooh, I like that! And I'll wear something like this:

    Misophonia, hurray!
    (Wikipedia) Misophonia, literally “hatred of sound”, is believed to be a neurological disorder characterized by negative experiences (anger, flight, hatred, disgust) triggered by specific sounds. The sounds can be loud or soft. The term was coined by American neuroscientists Pawel Jastreboff and Margaret Jastreboff and is often used interchangeably with the term selective sound sensitivity. Misophonia has not been classified as a discrete disorder in DSM-V-TR or ICD-10.

    ...

    People who have misophonia are most commonly angered, and even enraged, by common ambient sounds, such as other people clipping their nails, brushing teeth, eating, breathing, sniffing, talking, sneezing, yawning, walking, chewing gum, laughing, snoring, typing on a keyboard, whistling or coughing; certain consonants; or repetitive sounds. Some are also affected by visual stimuli, such as repetitive foot or body movements, fidgeting, or movement they observe out of the corners of their eyes. Intense anxiety and avoidant behavior may develop, which can lead to decreased socialization. Some people feel the compulsion to mimic what they hear or see. Mimicry is an automatic, non-conscious, and social phenomenon. It has a palliative aspect, making the sufferer feel better. The act of mimicry can elicit compassion and empathy, which ameliorates and lessens hostility, competition, and opposition. There is also a biological basis for how mimicry reduces the suffering from a trigger.

    I just had a massive laughing fit. The word after yawning. I read with an 'n' instead of an 'l'. Very funny when read unexpectedly!

    I react the same way when people say "conversate."
    IT'S "CONVERSE" DAMN IT!
    Ooh yeah, this would make me want to claw somebody's tongue out of his head if I heard it. What I do hear -- and oh my goodness, does it make me crazy -- are "remediate" (remedy) and "administrate" (administer). I'm a fairly low-key, laid-back person, truly, but these "words" prompt violent thoughts. And naturally, everyone in my office uses them on a daily basis. :explode:

    Typos here and there don't bother me (as an editor, I know you can't catch everything) but when a small press publishes a book, they really don't edit at all and it can be AWFUL. Really, really, really awful.

    Even worse is that all seven Harry Potter books are FULL of grammatical errors. Full of them.

    So are the Twilight books. ugh.

    Some of the small press books I've downloaded on Barnes and Noble are awful beyond awful..barely able to be read.

    Also, more specific to here, people who substitute "the process of no longer being a lazy lard-*kitten*" with "my journey".

    I work at a college, and students are always having loud, animated phone calls( usually on speaker) in the restroom. YUCK! Yes, even while on the toilet! First of all, it's rude to engage in loud personal phone calls in public, secondly it kind of violates my privacy...yeah, now my 'business' can be heard on their speakerphone! If this relates to you: Please just quick say that you will call them back and HANG UP! It is a public R E S T R O O M and it is not an emergency !

    not to mention the things you're touching as you're touching your phone. GROSS.
