[b]What irritates you?
For starters...
* Persons: Parents who haven't taught their children manners who scold them in public.
* Places: Public bathroom facilities an animal would think twice about before using.
* Things: Poorly told jokes and stories, lukewarm coffee, dirty kitchens and soggy bread.

If you've heard Juan, you've heard Jamal. 😞
I hear a loud series of knocks on my door. Apparently someone doesn't understand the concept of a doorbell. I open it up and it's obviously a shill. He starts into his spiel - his people are doing research, blah blah blah, and do you own your home? I asked him what he was selling, and he said 'nothing, really...' and started to explain, but I cut him off with 'of course you are'. So he decided to drop the pretense and tell me about what he was selling. I cut him off again with 'I'm not interested'. This gave him only a moment's pause before re-launching the sales pitch. I cut him off yet again with 'what part of "I'm not interested" do you not understand?' which he completely ignored...just kept talking. So I told him 'have a nice day' and shut the door in his face.
Yeah. That guy, and the bloody kid who would not stop screaming during his haircut, no matter how many adults tried to cheer him up. You would have thought they were disemboweling him from the noises he made. 😛

I become a little bit saddened by situations sometimes, but I don't let them get me down, and they certainly don't irritate me. I try to help in some moments when I perceive others need help, but even then I might be over-stepping the mark, as even the little people learn to cope with dire situations Bobby. Even flood victims, and victims of famine and lack of water, which you have never experienced, sometimes stepping in is over-helping as they know how to survive alone vs the forces.
So in your 'for starters...' assumption, not all of us are as irritated as you think we are.
I do sometimes feel saddened for your assumptions though. :'(
