scholastica Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 Why don't you just invest in clicky type pens? No caps needed, just push the click thing on the end & the point is not out anymore. ;) :lol: I guess my drive me crazy thing is the overwhelming presence of noise everywhere, esp. at top volume -- leaf blowers, chain saws, music, muscle car engines, etc.... :willy_nilly: I should walk through life with earplugs in all the time. And tvs/screens in any public place. (I am appalled that gas stations now have talking screens on the tanks while you are pumping gas! :ack2: :banghead: ) And people who check their texts in movie theaters. Yeah, I know you're not talking but your screen is like a great big beam of light for contacting alien life on another planet in the middle of a very dark theater. I hate, hate, hate that. I always want to run down to sit behind them, read over their shoulder, & comment on what they are reading or texting so maybe they will get the hint to shut it off. Why the heck pay to go to a movie if you're just going to check your texts 90 times during it??? Because I can't stand the clicky noise those pens make either! :lol: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartlikealion Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 People wearing headphones with music loud enough that I can still hear it. Or any audio. Gaming conversations, etc. Seems like it defeats the purpose of the headphones. Someone explain the fork/plate thing to me. Is it when someone is loud pushing the food into the trashcan? Or is it because you would rather it go into the garbage disposal? Both? I shove food into the trash can (we don't have a garbage disposal). A fork would just be the convenient choice because it is already dirty. But I don't think I'm making a lot of noise when I do it. I don't like listening to it, either. The pajama thing is funny to me. I was hunting for the other half of dd's pjs last night but finally gave up and settled on a different top. I reasoned that it was better this way since the real top that goes with the set is long sleeved and she tends to kick covers off so maybe gets hot easily. We settled on a short sleeved one. It makes me happy to have the right set together, though. I have to sleep with clothes on. If I sleep naked I am uncomfortable and dream that I am naked in public :laugh: It is hard for me to sleep without socks, too. Even if I have covers on, my feet tend to get cold. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people don't seem to control their utensils well and make a lot of clinking/scraping noises which are very annoying. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsMommy Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Very little really sets me off, but I will admit that the sound of snoring makes me irrationally upset. I know it's ridiculous, but I can't help it. I blame my dad, who would snore so loud in his bedroom on the second floor of the house that you could still hear it loud and clear in the basement. It was horrible, and kept me up many nights when I was a child. So now, even light snoring gets me all riled up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Scarlett and her laundry got me thinking. There are definitely things that make me crazy that don't bother other people in the least. My main one is pens without their caps. Cannot abide them. I have to look for the cap and reunite it with the pen or vice versa. If the mate can't be found, into the trash it goes. It is a visceral physical reaction, too. My whole family knows it and they are very good about it. The other one is outfit or pajama parts being worn separately from each other. I try to ignore it, but ooooh it bothers me. There are others, but I'll leave it at that. What's yours? No pens with caps here. Only click pens! A result of years spent waiting tables. Caps come off, ink on clothes. Nope. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy101 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Yes. I find it horrifying. I do *not* understand why people allow their kids to do this. Also sniffing instead of blowing. Please, just get a Kleenex. Let me get you a Kleenex! Please. And little kids with unwiped noses--or mothers who wipe their kids' noses with their fingers. I'm realizing there is a theme here. Now that I see it typed out I feel really petty. I'll keep you company in pettiness then bc I'm right there with you on all points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storygirl Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Lately I hate it when my feet get wet. Not when I am in the shower, but when I am wearing sandals in the summer and it starts to rain. Or I have to walk through damp or wet grass. It's not just uncomfortable; for some reasons it makes me feel grouchy, even angry. It's weird. I also have several of the same issues that have already been mentioned. Sniffing...argh!! Hate it. So of course one of my kids has a tic that includes sniffing. And not flushing. Even worse, clogging the toilet but not telling anyone that it needs to be fixed. And then the non-flusher comes along and uses it while it is clogged. And never notices it is clogged, because he never flushes anyway. :cursing: I am an incompetent plunger, so I have to recruit DH to help.

Cecropia Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Not being listened to, in a "Who's on First" kind of way. Or like the scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail with the guards and the prince. Happens. Every. Day. It drives me bonkers. Today's example: ds12: "I can have three pieces of chocolate for dessert, right?" (from the box of various sized assorted chocolates) me: "Maybe. It depends on how large they are." ds: "This one looks good." me: "That's the biggest one in the box. You can only choose one more to go with it." ds looks at the box for a minute. "Ok, I want that one and these two." me: "I JUST TOLD you that you can only have one more piece with that big one." ds: "What? You said I could have three!" and round and round we go. ETA: I'm with the previous posters on kids' runny noses, but it bothers me so much more when adults wipe their noses with their fingers or cough into their hands and then proceed to touch everything. Or worse, they'll do it and then reach out for a handshake (thinking of a church setting, giving peace).

HomeAgain Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 If I was a child I'd probably be diagnosed with a sensory disorder. Things that drive me nuts include noisy toys, video ads in stores, flashing billboards, clothing seams,being breathed on, things resting on my joints (like jewelry), and people chewing with their mouths open. Our youngest is much the same way, so vacations for our family are usually off season and include a quiet space to retreat to after too much stimulation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse are things with opaque containers that you might think were still at least partly full, so you don't get more at the grocery. Then you get home, pick up the container to make room in the fridge and realize that container is empty. Gum smacking. People who do not drive fast enough on interstate on ramps, so the cars behind them are trying to merge into traffic at 40 mph. Hate this!

Barb_ Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Mouth noises, generally. Whistling, gum chewing, noisy chewing while eating, tongue clicking, eating only part of a spoonful of ice cream or yogurt and then putting it back into your mouth, dog licking...shudder. My youngest has this thing she does when she's bored. She slowly opens her mouth while lowering her tongue from the roof of her mouth and back teeth. It makes this gooshy, spitty gross, repetitive noise that sounds like eating with your mouth open.

We have found random socks in the kitchen drawers, books, the woodpile, I had one fly off a ceiling fan into coffee cup last summer. I mean what the heck is going through the kids minds is what I want to know. Hmmmm... I think I'll take my shoes off right here in the entry way.... Four hours later, hmmm, my left sock needs to come off oh whoops it fell on the ceiling fan... Who knows when later, oh guess I better take this other sock off oh hey perfect because I need to mark my spot in this dictionary. But what do I hear every time I turn around? Mom, I don't have any socks! And my dh's right eye starts to twitch as he bellows that cannot be possible. In private I've considered if they are just screwing with us at this point. At least that would make sense in a twisted genius kind of way.We also have socks everywhere, and at the same time no socks at all. Schrodinger's socks.

Monica_in_Switzerland Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I can't stand anything tight around my neck or upper arms. I HATE winter coats but moved form CA to Switzerland so just have to suck it up sometimes. Ugh. Long sleeves also drive me nuts and I wear them as rarely as possible. In other people's habits: - Kids who all ask the same question, in sequence. I try to believe they aren't doing it on purpose, but a part of me wonders if they are trying to drive me insane. Like, child A "What's for dinner?" Me: "burgers and spinach". Then 30 seconds later, child B "What's for dinner?", then child C, hearing something about dinner, "What's for dinner?" - My 9yo eating anything crunchy or crumbly. He leans back in his chair, and basically gets completely covered in crumbs. Even the 2yo can do better than that!!! ARGH! - DH getting the kids all silly and worked up right before bed. I know this is just his style, but it drives me nuts. I want a BREAK at the end of the day!

I even have their names on the cubbies, and the shoes are still all over the floor. The washer/dryer are in the same room, so it's always a joy to trip over shoes on my way to do laundry. I also hate loose paper. It's everywhere...art projects, school stuff, random drawings, and DH's lists (he loves to make lists). I've tried buying bound/spiral notebooks for everyone to keep their stuff in, but they just tear the paper out, so it doesn't help. Smacking is really irritating. Actually, pretty much any sound that has to do with eating bothers me. Chewing, swallowing, forks scraping on teeth, slurping, it's all bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
