    Im living with someone that cant stop humming/whistling/singing constantly. In every situation.
    When someone chews with their mouth open and you can here them mascitating.

    I tend to pace a good bit. It helps me think. I dont usually do it with company.

    Pedantic people can be really annoying.

    I said to a guy at work

    "You are the most pedantic person I know"

    and he said

    "No, no I am the third most pedantic person you know"

    Multo autem ad rem magis pertinet quallis tibi vide aris quam allis

    OH and the icemaker on the fridge.
    You can have cubed or crushed .
    We agreed after a lengthy discussion that the default setting should be cubed because if you leave it on crushed and want cubed ice you get this half and half slushy crap. What setting do I always find it on? Crushed. :mad

    My gast is truly flabbered. Your head must be wrecked, my heart bleeds for you, oh the agony.

    (I'm secretly v.jealous that you have one of those fridges, I've always wanted one, just seemed like an unjustifiable expense for an ice-maker - are they any good, default setting aside ?)

    People who eat with their mouths open practically.
    When my brother eats he makes slurping sounds. So annoying when I'm sitting opposite him at a dinner table.
    Another brother puts on a posh accent when he's talking on the phone to certain people.
    Another brother can't sit still.
    Me personally when I'm watching a film I google it half way through so I know what's going to happen.

    They're not bad....I think it actually encourages you to drink more water cos it's on tap.
    Handy if there's a party as well.

    People cracking their fingers... jesus christ, it absolutely wrecks my head.
    Sitting there trying to ignore it, pretend its something else, but I just can't...

    Things I do, knee is bouncing all the time don't know why, its doing it right now.
    Tapping, I play lots of instruments, drums including, I pretty much tap on every single surface in reaching distance.
    Also don't like sitting down that much, I just prefer to stand.

    Jedward...s new habit of wearing the American flag as clothing. On absolutely everything. combined with their accent sure who'd know any different? my personal favourite is the apparent adidas top adorned with it. Two of my favourite forms if stripage, combined. Well done lads how do they manage? anyone ever seen a lamer, more desperate attempt to break America / appeal to the yoof.

    If even louis walsh thinks te adi-stripes are so hip they might work for jedwards sales, so commonly pase by now are they.. is that not the death knell?

    Nope...

    Apparently I am completely un-emotional

    (eg) I never ever show emotion, always have a straight face on me or an annoyed look which seems to annoy people for some reason but F**K them anyway.


    Kind of like Tuvok from Voyager

    People who live in apartment blocks with communal washing facilities will probably only relate to this, but people who leave their clothes in the washers/dryers for like half an hour after they're wash/dry has finished. Seriously, its infuriating when your in a rush or want to get to bed but have to wash the clothes first.

    How hard is it to get off your arse and go in and collect your washing you lazy gits!

    Jaysus, knee jigging really DOES drive me nuts. What the hell do people do it? I always assume they're dying for a piss.

    It helps my concentration when I knee jig and tap my fingers.

    I don't know what it's called in other areas but where I'm from we call it 'hockering.' When somebody coughs up phlegm/snorts up snot and then spits it out. It makes me feel sick.
