That Which Annoys
Apr. 21st, 2008 08:28 am1. Someone in my office this morning bathed in Chanel Nerve Gas #5. Perfumes & colognes typically don't bother me but this stuff has set off a sneezing fit the likes I haven't experienced in years. Oy.
2. In the past few days, I've encountered a handful of people who chatter nonstop. This is beyond general conversation: it's as though they feel compelled to keep talking and talking and talking and talking to somehow stave off the grim reaper by annoying him so much he won't approach. Which sadly means that he won't relieve me of the pain no matter how much I pray for death. Why do some people abhor silence like nature abhors a vacuum?
So, what annoys you?
