Irrational things that annoy you (and non irrational things too come to think of it)

My old boss used to do that all the time. If he'd made a mistake it was 'We did xxx' If I'd made a mistake it was 'She did that'.

Lol@infidels!

Hear hear to the royal we!!

For me... scab picking. I can't help myself. I pick a cut and then a scab and then it rescabs and I have a scar and well... it's all my fault but I can't halp it and it annoys the life out of me!

Cheesy puffs.

Too bloody addictive. I love them, but I know they're bad for me... but I can't help it!

Oh and succumbing to buying "treats"... gah! More work at the gym.

In threads where the topic is something like 'your favourite song intro' or 'best funny scene' and people don't post any text indicating what is in the youtube video. Only because if I am reading and videos are blocked or browsing on my phone with limited connectivity I can't follow the thread

People posting stupid things about "Facebook is stealing your children's souls"* or something equally daft without actually checking to see if it's even vaguely true. There's plenty of reasons to dislike Facebook without making up random nonsense and then posting it on Facebook to advertise that you haven't done even the most basic of fact checking.

*nb most recently it was Facebook is changing your email address without your permission.

I'd normally agree with you there but in the case of that one, it's true. Had it happen with mine earlier as well as a few friends. Most annoying part is I didn't have my email address set to be displayed beforehand anyway! Easy enough to change at least.

Ok, maybe I'll have to concede that particular example then. Although I checked my Facebook and it hadn't changed my email address so thought it was probably just one of those random posts that wasn't correct.

I checked that. It didn't happen to me yet.

Mine is people who are 'wacky' all the time. We all have our moments, but it's not possible to be like *that* all the time. Especially telling when said person forgets themselves for a while and is perfectly normal then clicks that they've not said or done anything odd for a couple of minutes and does the whole 'Weee I'm BONKERS, ME!' thing again.

Like people who go "I'm mental, me. I'm mad i am". No, no you're not. You desperately want people to think you are, but you're actually mentally retarded or perfectly normal and boring.
