What is the one thing that automatically makes you mad?

OMG this. I am calm and endlessly patient for the most part, but I will not be late and I really dislike waiting on people who are. Time is so valuable.

Thank you and people are always so cavalier about it. Like oops, I am just always late, not a big deal. I think that's what really makes me upset about it. It's like saying your time is more important than my time to me.
 
Me too, Tammy. Me too! Maybe it is just an Idaho thing :D

I like to think I'm pretty chill in my old age :D (wasn't always like that) But, reading through everyone's comments did stress me out!
One of my biggest pet peeves is when driving and people rushing into a lane when theirs ends. I know it happens sometimes where you think the lane goes through, but actually doesn't and you have to get over quickly. But, when someone rushes up so they "beat" all the other cars, or cuts someone off, it drives me nuts!
 
I am not an animal person so I have little to no patience with our dog & her various neuroses. It especially drives me crazy when she is frantically barking at someone/something that she can see through the window but she doesn't actually want to go outside and will go hide in her crate anytime you ask her if she needs out. She doesn't seem to like to do anything that other dogs like to do: go outside, play fetch, go on walks, go on car rides, etc. She has finally relented to riding in the car to be taken to the dog park 5 minutes from our house (and she does play with the dogs there) but that's it. I just don't get it.

People who don't obey traffic laws & signs also drive me bonkers. Yes, right turn only actually means for EVERY SINGLE DRIVER. No, 35 mph doesn't mean it's okay to drive 15 or 65 in that same area EVEN IF you are running late, having a bad day, [insert other dumb excuse here].

I have to ask, if you are not an animal person, why have a dog? Animals are pretty sensitive to feelings, so some of her neuroses may be because she can feel your impatience with her, especially if you are the one she is around the most. More than anything, when it comes to training, and dealing on a daily basis with a dog, patience is the key. If you are "high strung" about her, she will be high strung too. Maybe just sit with her for a little bit of time every day, petting her. It will calm her and it may have a positive effect on you and how you relate to her.

Hahaha totally relate too! I hate this and what about the people who just don't care of the others and create their own traffic laws... Lot's of people don't use the blinkers anymore here's so you have to guess they want to turn or wait in traffic roundabout.
I think it's in the car I'm yelling alone the most lol :D
 
My mom.

I swear...I love her. But, she drives me crazy. The older she gets, the more opinionated and rude she becomes. She's rude to people. And, even when she isn't being rude she just sounds rude. Like her tone is rude. She's picky. I have to let her pick a restaurant because she's so damn picky about her food that I don't want to be the one that picked a restaurant she ends up disliking what she ordered. She's always late or never ready to go when we designate a time.

I have to be around her in small doses. :D

OMG, the mother and daughter relationship can be so trying. My mom got like that as she got older too. That along with her dementia made it so you never knew what was going to come out of her mouth or how it would sound. There were times when we had to leave places because she was so rowdy and rude. Looking back, I mostly think it was the dementia, but then losing a loved one always softens the memories.

Oh.My.Goodness! ^^^ This! My mom lives with us and I have to keep my distance. She is bitter and the things that come out of her mouth just floor me sometimes.
 
LOL, I got a new printer two years ago and it is still in the box because I got frustrated trying to set it up. By the time I tackle it again, it will probably be obsolete. :o

HP printer??? I love HP printers, but they drive me INSANE trying to get them set up. Holy Moly!!!
