First up, for me, is C.D cases. It really annoys me when you get a brand new C.D, take off the shrink wrap and find that either the hinge or the spindles holding the disc in place are broken.
So c'mon let it out !!

Speech in an instrumental. Yes, you take an incredibly creative guitar player, put him in a studio, and he can lay down an full hour of licks and riffs that'll leave you begging for more, but, why . . . Why do there have to be spoken words??? O.K. I get that it's supposed to be like a slice out of a sixties get high and listen to the freak reading poetry and the guy in the corner, that won't shut-up, with an acoustic guitar is stoned and thinks that he's providing an accompaniment, hippy club. But, in a ghastly turn of events ( and theme) the bride of HeGodManzilla tears the roof off of the club, takes the acoustic guitar away from the stoned guy with the acousitc guitar, picks up the stoned guy with the acoustic guitar - who has since become the stoned guy without the acoustic guitar- and rips him in half with his canine teeth and a vicious reaction to Metallica music, and proceeds to carefully suck the blood out, with such genteleness, of his lower torso like squeezing the last bits of juice out of a wax candy Coke bottle and puts the guys remaining legs and feet back in the corner, where he was holding up the damn nicotine stained wall, or something, and shoves the guitar DOWN his ass, but, it's there forever, as is the CD, ruining my Jake E Lee listening experience every FN time I listen to it!

On the dvd's how about the little tape that they put all around the edge that doesn't ever come off at the pull here tag...and it takes 14 razor blades and every knife in the kitchen to get it off while your 6 year old is going come on mom hurry up we want to watch the movie!!!! and it just won't peel off!!!! so you have a headache and you need the same 6 year old to get the child proof cap off the bottle so you can get your drugs out!!!!!!and the phone is ringing and since you have 4 cordless phones and they never get hung up and you can't find a single one of the freakin things and when you do its your mom asking why you didn't answer the phone for the last 14 times it rang....and if its not here its some ass hat from India wanting to ask you a question about your internet service.........
F---ing dvd cases!!!!!!

when the brush on the nail polish doesn't go down to the bottom then you have to keep tilting it to get the remaining polish. Same with Moisturizer when the pump doesn't go completely down to the bottom of the container so you have to take off the dang lid and try to get the rest out at the bottom. Well that is pretty minor...
Don't like when I am all comfy at the movie theatre and someone real tall with a big hat on a sits directly in front of me. Or someone behind me keeps kicking my chair. I mean really come off it man!!

How about when the Powers That Be decided to not introduce head cleaners until everyone fell prey to the wave of the VCR once or twice, and it was too late when we discovered the soul of the celluloid tape-eating machines. Wasn't it cool when the bright idea to use a pencil in order to crank the cassette wheels dawned upon you? No, that takes too long . . . here's a way better idea! Yeah! Unscrew the cassette and open it! Yeah, thanks for that and about five miles of fXXXN useless movie tape.

I'm up to speed with you on the traffic circle . . . or, the "roundabout." But, dude, left lane for left turns and straight-on?!! Damn, that's wicked fucked to imagine!

Round abouts are used on the East coast and that is the dumbest thing I have ever run in to...We do not have that here on the West coast...If you want to turn left you get into the turn left lane and of you want to go straight then stay the hell out of the turn lanes and if you want to turn right then use the turn lane for that..Simple easy....done... East coast they have those f-ing round abouts...so if I want to turn left you can't you have to go down the road a mile or so and make 14 right hand turns to get under the road to go bck the other way to get off where you wanted to go.. Stupid!!! I spent a week driving in Jersey and I was ready to take a jack hammer to the median and make my own turn lane.... I don't have road rage usually..but I did there!!!!!
And yes people who do not indicate!!!!! That is the most annoying thing in the world...Not a smart thing to do here in L.A.There are a lot of hostile people on the road...

I quite liked driving in New Jersey, espescially on the Garden State Parkway. It leads to one of my favourite parts of the world, Cape May.

People who talk about Irrational Annoyances, as if a genuine annoyance could be anything other than rational and be mentionable.
