Things That Irk Me
66Mike's Common Sense
I am normally an up beat positive type of a guy. I do my best to keep a positive attitude even under the most stressful situations, but there are certain things that people do that will never fail to irk me. Some people call these things “pet peeves”, but I prefer to call them “things that irk me” (I just think ‘irk' is a great, under used word). So here it is Mike’s official list of “Things That Irk Me”.
1) Push handles on pull doors
2) People who just have to pull out in front of you, when there are no cars behind you, then make a left hand turn 100 ft. down the road.
3) Loud mouths
4) Greedy people
5) Hooray for me, and f#&k you, type of people
6) Drivers waiting to make a left hand turn in front of you that won’t move into the center of the intersection.
7) Power driven policemen who forget that they are being paid to serve and protect.
8) Warm beer
9) Cigarette smokers who complain when I light up a cigar.
10)People who love to tease and, dish out verbal abuse, but get indignant, and offended when you do the same to them.
11)People talking on cell phones when they are paying for their groceries.
12)People sending text messages on cell phones while they are (supposedly) driving.
13)Tailgaters
14)Wet cigars
15)Guys who can’t lift the toilet seat to piss
16)People who steal your lunch at work
17)Nosy, gossiping people
18)A bed that smells like “dog”
19)Slow golfers
20)Shoppers that block the whole aisle with their shopping carts
21)Cars that won’t start
22)Anything that won’t work, when I want it to
23)Flat tires
24)Beautiful women, that know that they are beautiful
25)Spam
26)Telemarketers calling at suppertime
27)Commercials that insult my manhood and, intelligence
28)Dead cell phone batteries
29)Racists
30)Varmints, flies, and cockroaches
31)Neighborhood cats in heat
32)Potholes
33)Not being able to find my car keys at 3:45 AM, because they weren’t hung up.
34)Pull handles on push doors
Wow, I never realized there are so many things that irk me! What was that I was saying before about being positive and up beat? Forget that!

Hi muley,
I think liars and racists are the tops on my list. And here's one that I'm not sure you've ever heard of. There is a woman at my job of a different nationality, who, when in the ladies room, she will put her finger on her nose, press one side closed, then blow out the boogers from the other nostril into the sink. Horrifying! Gross! I believe it's a common practice for her, because she's done it numerous times. It so shocks me, I can't even address her about it.
Great list!
Hi Trish! let's see blowing snot out of your nose... sounds like a guy thing to me. Just before my run I will typically blow snot out of my nose, on the field next to me, not a public sink! That even grosses me out!
LOL, well in my opinion, it is an absolutely disgusting thing for a woman to do, especially in public! I'm often tempted to put a box of tissues in her cubicle. I mean, what someone does in privacy is fine, just don't let me share the experience :)
