Ohhhhhhh, that would be the BO of my workmate. First thing in the morning, he's rank. At the end of a summer day I just keep up wind. There is a can of under arm I use for the office after he has been in there.

When you're with a mate who always elbows you in the arm to get your attention ... either in a car, in a movie or when you're not looking at them.

I then warn them once. Just once. Don't do that please.

If they persist in doing it :oi-grr:

I thump their arm once with my elbow just under the amount to avoid breaking it :nono:

My partner rarely annoys me and when she does it's very minor and soon forgotten. I love her for so many reasons...HOWEVER!!!!

I work with an idiot.

He creeps up on you while you're concentrating and yells "Hey" and continues with some lame information.

He'll be walking toward you and do a quick-step left and right so you don't know which way he's going. Bloody annoying.

He'll take any opportunity to make casual conversation with a female a sexual inuendo.

He'll do the tiniest task connected to what I've just done and take the credit for the whole job.

etc etc

So, what's a life sentence worth these days?

A sniffer - when the office is a bit quiet and we're all concentrating on working (or surfing kiwibiker) and there's this loud "SNIIIIIFFFF" from the next workstation. And not just once - it's every few minutes. Pointless mentioning it to the person - he just keeps right on doing it. I usually try find some excuse to be out of the office when this guy is in.

Had a similar one at my old work except the noise didn't come from his nose ... it came from his throat. Sort of like trying to clear his throat but it sounded more like a cat coughing up a furr-ball. Seriously! It happened about every 15 minutes.

The guy at work who is constantly elbowing me in the tit..

Dan, cause he grits his teeth in his sleep.. I don't mean a little.. I mean he grits them that bad its to the point they start squeeking VERY loudly and I wake up... Wake him up so he'll stop.. Just start dozing off and he starts doing it again... Unknown reason as to why he does it.. But his teeth are damaged..

A couple that spring to mind: when I have to share a room offshore and I can hear the bloke I'm sharing with hoiking up big lung oysters or snorting up snot balls in the shower and I know I've got to go and stand in the same shower after they've finished.

Or guys who repeatedly fart in the accomodation or switchroom airlocks, yeah yeah it was funny the first half dozen times but thirty eye bursting, tongue scraping times later and all you want to do is plot a suitable industrial accident for the perpetrator.

mwahahahaha ... I do that too. For those with extremely weak will power, during ad breaks you need to switch rapidly between channels to avoid being brainwashed into buying all the useless shit in places like the Warehouse. It's just a defence mechanism.:shutup: It's only the ad break - what's the problem?

Changing the channel 20 times in 4 minutes means you'd have to flick it over every 12 seconds. So what's the problem with this? Well, not all channels have ads at the same time and I only ever get to watch 12 seconds of a program before it changes again. But it gets worse - when he flicks to another channel, he watches C4 and exposes us to black men singing hip hop!

Same here! I worked on a newspaper and the features writer sounded like he was dying all the time. He didn't smoke but it sounded like he had a 40-a-day habit and was coughing up big globs of phlegm all the time. It used to make me sick!

I also hate sniffers, but I think the thing that annoys me the most when I am out and about would be people who don't lift their feet when walking so all you hear is the sound of their jandals or ugg boots or whatever scuffing along the footpath! I feel like yelling "lift your bloody feet!"

And smokers at outdoor events - we always manage to end up near smokers and often there is nowhere to move away from them.

"Managing my expectations"

Software Development Manager fails to perform - keeping our SW current and compatible with the Operating Systems etc it is suppsed to run on.

Or (just today) explainming to me at length why the Dell laptop I bought is so hard to configure with XP, it's a risk and will take a ton of configuring prior to me spending time out of the office as of Friday.

Lots of words - lots of explanation... too much in fact. He breaks the cardinal rule of lying. Keep your answers short and simple. The attempt to cover it up is obvious - too much justification.

The other problem he has is my Sys Admin background. While I'd be a right menace at it now (7 years since really hitting a UNIX keyboard) I'm still able to work out that chopping up a 160GB HD into 5 pieces, installing XP, Office, and VPN and testing it all should not take the 8 working days it has thus far. Considering the guy doing it has very little else on his plate (yes... I checked)... WTF?

So today I'm in a bad mod anyway, and the Dev Manager pipes up and says "oh it can't be done for these 5 reasons... bcc's the CEO on it and expects me to sit and wait nicely...

The poor sod just painted a target on his back, and asked me to fetch me shootin' stick.

Most annoying habit? Probably a toss-up from the following:

1. People who think they're still in LOTPIHGAD when "contributing" to other threads.

2. Sin-binned KB addicts who go to unimaginable lengths to get back into the gargre just to piss people off.

3. Endless mindless video clips recycled from other web sites. I have this brilliant idea of creating a site especially for this. I think I'll call it "Youtube.com." Maybe it will even catch on...

Oh, hang on, this is probably one of those "self-awareness" posts where one gets to guess what others perceive as one's most annoying habit. How's this then?

1. Moaning about the illiterate.

Anoying habit?
My flat mate has like a million, they are simple things to which makes it worse!
Like turning off the outside light when she gets home, locking the house when she gets home, not putting the milk/butter/sugar etc away, flooding the bathroom, parking in the middle of the carport so I can't get in or cam can't...
Yeah the list is rather never ending!!
