    I have a few, but the one I can remember right now, and the most recent that has set me off is when people get pissy because a person says they are from America 'You are from the USA, not America. America is a continent!' *kitten*. The continents are SOUTH and NORTH America. There are two, so you can't just say 'America' when speaking of a continent, you have to specify it.

    Americans in general. The world does not revolve around you .

    People who generalize about Americans. There are 300 million of us. We're probably not all alike.

    Water weight. It is an irrational anger, because rationally I know it's water weight, I have all the symptoms of water weight, I've not eaten enough for it to be anything but water weight, and it will go away, so it's rationally explainable, but still makes me irrationally angry that I'm a puffy, fluffy chubber this morning.

    When someone's selfie reminds me of an 80's song.

    When someone's Avatar makes me think "look how macho I am, im holding guns cool or what"

    ^I hate that too^

    1) Being inexplicably logged out of an app that was working yesterday. :#
    2) Intro offers that bury the fact that there's an auto renewal so deep you can't find it and then have to argue with them to cancel it.

    4-way stops and the person with the right of way motions for me to go. Once I realize this, there is traffic so I can't go. Dude, you are not helping!

    Kind of like a nasty protein fart that you're stuck sniffing at.

    Which you do often I should think

    Oh, anyone who ignored road rules by trying to be polite! Like people who have right of way but wave you through. I get that they think they're being nice, but seriously, just follow the road rules and the world is a happier place.

    Walkways/hallways
    a.Co-workers/people standing talking, but taking up the whole way, giving no place to maneuver through. I hate walking right through/in the middle the group
    b.Person A at one end of the hallway yelling out to person B on the other end of the hallway. Why not just walk up to person B or do nothing at all?
    c.Flip-Flop/shoe/Slipper wearers that do not pick up feet while walking

    - people who won't stand up to let you in the aisle, but rather "shift their legs" a little thinking that should give you plenty of room.

    I hate that! Sadly, it is usually in church. I'm supposed to be humbled and ready to pray. Then I watch 'the climbers' and 'side sweepers' in action. Why can't the side sweepers either move over or get up for a second to allow the person to get in the row? It drives me nuts. Then I have the guilt of being angry in church and not thinking nicely. Crazy. :p

    To make it worse they are making a freaking Broadway play from this ×#$% movie! Plus, Frozen II is in the works. I HATE this movie. And, no, I can't "let it go". :p

    Pretty much everyone at a grocery store.
    Pretty much everyone on the road.
    People who think out loud all the time.

    People who can't pick up their feet when they walk.
    People who call in 'sick' the day before their days off.
    Any person who I know that knows how to manage their chronic illness and doesn't, then complains that they are suffering the affects all the time.

    All three of these are wrapped up in one IRRITATING co worker right now. :grumble: He is supposed to retire soon but he will likely get fired before that happens. :mrgreen:

    key word: 'irrationally'. When those thin pieces of plastic off a bag stick to your hands via static and you can't flick them off.

    Improper spelling and grammar. I've had to fight to change myself so I don't correct everyone all the time even though it still gets to me.

    Improper use of there, their, and they're. How did these people get a bachelor's degree?
