:: the lil' irritating things in life ::

A list of all those things that irritate us daily. They might seem trivial but when you put them all together, they'll probably cause a personality Type A person to get an AMI!

1. Kids (and adults) who rush to enter the lift as soon as the doors open, without letting the people within exit...
haven't these pple taken common sense 101? how to squeeze more people into a limited space that is already filled?

2. People who stand two-by-two and hog up the escalator (especially those in the mrt) such that others in a rush can't get past them. the worse are those who hog up the entire width of the fairly wide escalator with their enormous butt / shopping bags.

3. People who walk oh-so-slowly and just block up the entire passage way.

4. Salesgirls who keep hassling you to try this and that, take a look at this and that, despite the fact that you tell them you're fine looking around on your own OR when u tell them you're looking for a skirt and they pull out racks of sHirts for you.

5. People who thrust leaflets at you despite the fact that BOTH your arms are VERY visibly loaded with items. what do they want me to do? use my mouth to hold the flyer?

6. People who blast music into their ears (with headphones) in the library... so loudly that even you, sitting 3m away is able to tell what song is playing.

7. People who use the library reference section as a place for dating...

8. Filling up forms / admin matters just because the admin people are too free and want some papers to play with. (worse if you're asked to do something totally aimless and repetitive, cuz they lost yr info or sth)

9. Commuters who refuse to move towards the back of the bus, causing others to be unable to board the bus (and end up late for work).

10. Walking towards a pair of glass doors (meaning pple on both sides can see the opposite party), which swing both ways... but the idiotic AUNTIE on the other side waits for you to push the door open then before u can enter (after all you were the one who had to drag the heavy door open rite?) she makes for the same door... SO DUH and SOOO LAZY! got no hands to open yr own door? not like the door on the other side is jammed... and whoever reaches the door and pushes it first has the right of way wat. plus it's a push, not a pull... i could pull open the door for the other party opposite, but i couldn't possibly push it open and keep it open while the auntie walks through rite? no common sense!
anyway tt's what hap to me at the library. and since i did not have extendable hands like mr fantastic, i let go of the door (i think it hit common-sense challenged auntie's back) HA, she deserved it anyway.

11. A person rushing into your toilet cubicle after you'd opened the door... whoa, like some sex maniac or super high-tide person in the making. duh. how are you going to 'relief' yourself if the person who just used the cubicle can't even get out? DUH! (i'm beginning to agree with xx that perhaps, singaporeans are dumbbells... was the the word she used? or was it dumbasses... anyway both are nouns. will do)

12. something gross happened today... oh manz... someone actively -flirted- with me in the aim of making me leave my no. down so that he or his colleagues fr xxx insurance firm in singapore could probably hound me to get a savings policy. He was lucky I was in a rather good mood today or he'd have gotten flayed like that guy at orchard! yucks! wanna puke! no. 12 goes to ALL the surveyors upon the streets (who aim to get a contact no. from passer-bys). I've had enough of all this crap. There's surveyor fatigue too!

13. Those who are politically correct to the extent that they look and sound like robots. urgh. Would like to throttle them.

FINALLY... there's a simple solution to all this irritation.

Simply... think...
"Why get angry with the mistakes others make?"
"It's not worth it, is it?"
