When I am trying to merge onto a freeway at 100kph and the loser on the freeway doesn't pull over to the other lane so as to make room for me - forcing me and all those behind me to jam on our brakes. Total selfishness, not to mention incredibly dangerous. Jerk.

Someone on Facebook said they were goinng to take a break from Facebook and made a long dramatic post about it. 3 hours later they were back on it. I mean at least delete the other post so you don’t make yourself look so foolish. some guy on Reddit said “we all have that friend we just keep around for shits and giggles” and this is one one of two that I have. She is just so annoying.

Seriously. I've been seeing an awful lot of this from people I know lately. I try to be kind but I do try to make then aware they are doing the same thing that annoys them so much. Most of the time they laugh and go, oh ****, yup, I'm a hypocrite. And then they try to do better. But then there is always the one utter narcissist who cant bear to look themselves in the mirror and see what's really there.

When the same joke just gets run into the ground. It's only funny the first 10,000 times.

Oh, several of them. What just came up in Facebook memories was the "giraffe egg" joke. Remember when April the giraffe was expecting, and they put a camera in her stall to catch the labor and delivery? So many, many, many people were trolling chat sites with comments like, "Has she laid her egg yet? It can take up to six days for a giraffe to lay her egg." That was said so many times, it wasn't funny anymore.

And since she's expecting again, I look for that joke to be recycled. Ugh.

Plus any of the following way overused punchlines:

"Justin Bieber is actually a girl."
"Sarah Jessica Parker looks like a horse."
"Hey, that object looks like a body part!"
"Women belong in the kitchen."
"Chuck Norris is superhuman."
"That's what she said."
"Your mom."

I guess anybody who has a name that gets joked about a lot, and everybody thinks they're just so dang clever and original, knows what I'm talking about.

I am irked because my brother was supposed to feed my cats last night and this morning and when I got home at 3 they were not fed this morning. One ate so fast after I fed him he puked it all up on the floor and back in the bowl. I’m irked because I was just gone overnight and I’m going on a much longer trip in a few months. I don’t want to board the cats if I don’t have to. I have no idea how much it will cost. Plus I don’t want to put that stress on my cats if I don’t have to.

When people don’t tell you stuff and just expect you to know. This happened to me and luckily I looked at the very last minute before I left or I would have been a no call no show.

Lately I'm getting more and more unsettled - anxious, even - at the thought of Brexit and about to leave the EU without a deal. Donald Tusk's 'Hell' comment towards Brexiteers was unhelpful causing dismay, especially among the elderly who are among the most vulnerable in my country. I feel irked no end, frustrated at the government's seemingly slow actions on getting the UK a deal. And I am not the only one feeling disturbed and uncomfortable.

I am irked with the drug house across the street. The police know what activity is going on yet they do nothing about it. "We don't have the man power" to conduct surveilanace. Come on! That is such a lame answer. It might take but a few hours to see enough of what is going on to have 'probable cause' yet how many hours are accumulated when they send out a half dozen squad cars and officers everytime there is a major incident?

It has been weeks since we ordered a travel fridge from stupid store. It is supposed to be delivered to the store for us to pick-up. When enquiring what was taking so long, the customer service clerk advised us it takes over a month minimum for such things. WTH?!! It is a good thing we haven't needed to use it in all this time. If Amazon can deliver something to me in less than 48hrs, how is it that Walmart has such poor logistics and materiel handling? Sheesh. What do they have to do? Build the dang thing? The truly amazing part to this story is we walked on over to the department and saw the same items in stock on the shelf.

This afternoon I was recognised in town and asked for autographs. Spontaneous and unexpected, it was lovely. But oh, so overwhelming.

I’m watching The Masked Singer and Dr. Ken is unbearable to watch. I’ve watched a ton of reality and competition shows in my life. And I have never come across a judge as arrogant and conceited as he is. Actually this whole panel of judges is pretty awful.

Shirt sizes. I have to buy young men’s sizes because of how I’m built. Men’s shirts are too big. Women’s shirts make me look 20 pounds heavier. Luckily a couple stores in the mall always carry my size and they have great novelty and pop culture shirts. Besides that it’s either Aeropostale or Holister. But I can’t wear Adidas or Under Armour shirts. They just don’t look good on me.

People who overshare their issues and problems on Facebook. They want your sympathy but they just come off as annoying and as attention seekers.

What irks me are high winds. Tonight in the UK we are expecting a mighty storm that is forecasted to hit later tonight. Windy weather unsettles me.

Currently I'd say what erks me the most is ungrateful/disrespectful or just flat out rude people.strangers don't necessarilyedk me deeply bc I expect very little from them anyways. But someone in a given situation that shows nothing or acts like a asshole when they should at minimum say thank you. I guess this sounds pretty perhaps. My point is a little respect and thank you go a long ways with me. For example this kid spilt his soda and complains of being thirsty while snacking at a friend's yesterday. I not knowing the kid but had mine in the car and since I was leaving I could get another I gave it to him. Not was he aware he couldn't say thanks as he opened it taking a drink.
