Yawning. I can't stand yawning. I don't know why it bothers me so much, I know it can't be helped. It just drives me crazy when I see someone yawning (especially if they feel the need to make a lot of noises while doing it.) I think people should cover their yawns, just like you would cover a sneeze or a cough.

First, I'd like to say sorry If this has been done already...

So like the titles says, are there small things that shouldn't really bother you that annoy the crap out of you?

For me it would have to be when a movie is changed to be allowed to be on TV, and when it screws up either the plot (they leave something out) or they change some words into something different and it screws up a conversation. For example; in the movie 'Click', this scene ( http://youtu.be/zYJYM00SPpI?t=1m16s also sorry, I wasn't able to find the one scene, but it starts at it; also his grandma yells at him right afterwards) in the TV version Adam's son says 'Are you kidding me?' and his grandma still yells at him, I know it shouldn't bother me but it just annoys me to no end...

Anyone else have stupid little things like this that annoy them?
interestingly enough I was watching "forgetting sarah marshall" on TV and I fully expected them to edit out the full frontal male nudity near the start

they didnt....I was acutally very surprised, especially since usually when I see the casper movie they always editout the slightly scary bit in the mirror (though that may have somthing to do with the time its usually on, and for kids or what ever)

anyway for me

getting computer stuff wrong, while hilarious is kinda annoying (like the woman from NCIS who has the "highscore" in every MMO ever, she's obviously a wizard or a timelord)

I was watching "winners and losers" an Austrlian show that I actually kinda like, and I think one of the charachters was bragging about her rig she said "Dual gigs" THATS NOT EVEN A WORD!! however I only half heard it so I could be wrong, plus in that show they arnt too bad (except I dont know that computer nerds play second life..)

anyway also when people confuse animated films, PIXAR is not disney, dreamworks is not disney or vice versa, for some reason it REALLY pisses me off (as does calling them cartoons)

My fiancee has that strange regional dialect where she pronounces the word "milk" like "melk", and "picture" like "pitcher". Her mom says the word "hamburger" like "hambuger" and it bothers the ever living hell out of me. Also, people who chew gum loudly and use a cell phone on the bus as if it's their living room.
That sounds New English-is (like New York, New Jersey). Am I anywhere close?

Whenever someone, usually older generation, is doing anything on the internet and types out "http://www.___________" every time. usually arent very fast at typing so its usually them chicken-pecking out 'h....t.t.....p.................:.//.......www."

I love my aunt to death but she does this all the time and I installed Google Chrome on her computer for this reason, so she can just search for things in the address bar, but she still types out "http://www.google(or yahoo).com" when she needs to search anything

Damn, I was not expecting this to get so many responses :)

Anyway, I thought of another one, People who use the word 'like' more times then it's needed in a sentance... Like did you like know like I hate that...like?
I like to keep a tally of how many times they say that and say something to the tune of "Did you like know that you like said "like", like 14 times in that last sentence. Are, like, you like retarded or like, something like that, like?". It makes other people laugh at them, and causes rage, so it's all good.

OT: I hate that often times when I say "I don't like (show, movie, webcomic, webseries, videogame)" the first response I get is "Don't like; don't watch". That "logic" doesn't go very far at all, and it is annoying.

EDIT: Also, I hate that anytime I say anything negative about a furry or furry culture at large, I am accused of ?fursecution?, and often, I am compared to Hitler and what he did to Jewish people.

Sorry, but NO! That is not the case.

EDIT EDIT: Also, people who dismiss MLP:FiM as girly without giving it a chance.

I get annoyed when people don't wash their hands after using the bathroom, or when they just rinse them and don't use soap. I once saw a professor walk out of the bathroom without washing his hands and then proceed to shake hands with a number of people in the hallway.

Nope, wrong coast. Right direction though, in regards to north or south. It's not necessarily regional, her parents said it and that's how she learned it I suppose.

Children. Period.

Crap, I should explain that, but yea, kids. I can not stand the fact that they are smart enough to know things and communicate-with/annoy me, but they can't learn at more than a snails pace. If I have to explain something more than twice for you to get it, bite me. See what happens when you ignore me and stick the fork into the outlet against my advice that I've stated four times, let me know how that works for you.

I know it's not fair to them, still annoys the heck out of me.

And people that choose not to get a job because their unemployment will cover them for... what was it? Two entire years here in the US? Granted, it isn't a 'small thing' but still. Drives me insane.
Now imagine that the unemployment never ended and they still get covered...

Welcome to Australia... Freaking drives me insane that my taxes covers some lazy person who refuses to work because they don't need to...

I understand that those same taxes also cover single mums and people like that. No issue there but lazy shits...I want my tax back!
It... it never ends? .... You have just broken a small part of my soul there. I'm sorry.
That's ok, there isn't anything left of me. I'm not some right wing conserv but I believe that you should atleast have some form of drive to work. I don't know if there is any other country that has unending freaking unemployment payments...

"Off of". As in, "get off of me!" or "the phone is hanging off of the lanyard".
It's not a valid way of phrasing, it's shitty English and it is redundant.

Whenever I hear it or read it...

People who call anything in a military uniform an "army guy", gets annoying very fast.
This, this, this.

U.S. Marine Corps = Marine
U.S. Army = Soldier
U.S. Air Force = Airman
U.S. Navy = Sailor
U.S. Coast Guard = Coast Guardsman
Any U.S. National Guard = Guardsman

Etc, it's not too hard people. We all have different uniforms, too! Some claim that's too many different names to remember, yet they can easily know the difference between a mocha, latte, and a cappuccino! *sighs*

Other things that annoy me:

- Anyone who openly talks about illegal activities as if it's nothing.
"Yeah man, I did so much weed yesterday, it was real bro." Etc.

- Moths. They freak me out for some reason.

- People who can spell who end up using that horrible texting lingo or such, and claim it doesn't effect their ability to type. (Yeah, imagine how many times I find them writing "u" in an OFFICIAL report not a day after saying that)

- People who take on responsibilities and blow them off.

- People who openly disrespect rules and regulations for their jobs / priorities, and later go around whining about how they never get promoted.

You know what, screw it. What annoys me?

People.
(And moths)

Loud eaters.

I absolutely detest people who insist on inserting their own sound effects into their consumption of food-goods.
This. And like some people have already mentioned, Bubblegum is even worse. I work in a hotel and there´s a bunch of truck drivers that are always here. And I swear to god, every single one of them chews bubblegum with their saliva almost dripping out their mouths. And they insist on chewing that shit all the time. They hang around for hours sometimes while I try to work. Drives me nuts.

theres also another issue in regards to that

its not only white trailer trash (I dont like to judge people, but dumb teenage mothers just fucking piss me off for some reason,I feel like screaming "you dont need to have children to validate your existance!!!" have them when you can provide for them! ok I get somtimes its an accident but still...gaaahhh it just makes me rage)

anyway derailerd there, the Aboriginal people have sort of grown this culture of welfare dependance, (which in the worse cases they blow it on booze) from what I can see its become ingrained in their culture, they have no desire or need to work

now I understand that they are a group that has been pretty much crapped on ever since white people came around, and are still paying for it, but now it seems to be at rediculous levels, its a cultral issue that no one seems to be able to fix, some people get annoyed at how easy it is (or was) for aboriginal people to get government handouts because of the whole "white guilt" thing

not all aboriginal people are like this however (plenty of educated and acheivers of coarse, and scholarships for private schools) and yes there are the "Bogans" or trailer trash as you call it, really its a problem that affects all societys, aparently it may only get worse as the divide widens

Hmm...

I hate when I am rocking a super computer and a game lags slightly.. And it could never happen again but I will always remember it and be bugged by it. Haha, a stupidly small thing to be bugged by but when I think of the cash I put into a computer I get a bit antsy about its performance.

Now a less expensive thing that bugs me. I cant stand people leaning over my shoulder when I am on my laptop. I understand that watching me program might be interesting but I don't appreciate it.

People who walk too slow. I'm a naturally fast walker and it just annoys the hell out of me. It seems like something that shouldn't bother me, but damn.... Also people who block hallways or streets with their damn phalanx formations.
