What frustrates you the most?

Ignorance and an unwillingness to consider the other side.

being late – me and other people
my clumsiness
dog poop on paths
loud unpleasant noises
ignorance
people that think they have a right to do anything they want
GPs
my son refusing to get dressed
tiredness
ants
being completely misunderstood
people not listening when I am talking to them
pure selfishness
insincere christians
and yes…
my internet going down

@lynneblundell You had me at being late.

arrogance and narcissism.

@Amoebic Hi again. I agree. Those are two whoppers.

@Zen <blush>

People that feel as if they are allowed to be a jerk six days a week because they attend church on the 7th day.

My biggest frustration is seeing members of my family in situations that I know is wrong & not being able to get THEM to see it. I can’t live my life for them, but I want to.

@Amoebic You are funny!!

People who make stupid, dangerous driving maneuvers because they’re on the cell phone.

Recently I have been striving to not be frustrated at things that are out of my control.

It worked pretty well this past week! So I will continue with the habit.

I also try to not be frustrated at things in my control, but I do get disappointed when I am late for something, as I highly value being on time.

rudeness
lateness
avarice
bullying
narcissism

…my internet going down and my mobile acting up, yes.

@aprilsimnel oh bullying! yes I’m right there with you of course!

myself.

Online: not understanding things that interest me when I’ve no time to research them

IRL: people who breed when they can’t afford to and then complain about their poverty

*those would be the biggest

- a vicious circle of violence
– lack of solidarity in a society
– limiting life to instant gratification
– celebrity hype coupled with ignorance

@mattbrowne Sadly,sounds a bit like Israel. Sometimes.

Seeing people take a bad path despite your advice.

When a person is so angry over something that happened to them and they feel that they need to take everyone else down with them.

People that think they know it all.
Rudeness
People that are so close minded that they form an opinion based on someone’s religion, political stance or general lifestyle. that really annoys me
People with a sense of Entitlement – that they are owed certain things. Really? We all can into the world the same way, right? Naked and a newborn.
People who refuse to participate in life. They’d rather complain on the sidelines instead of jumping in and taking action.
Safety caps on medicine bottles when my arthritis is acting up! (I just love having RA!)
When you drop something on the floor (think a pat of butter, anything goopy – sour cream) gooey or sticky side down. Just once, can’t it land on the non-goopy side?

@zen how am I funny? I was being serious. I like this question, though : )

Intolerance
Rudeness
Bad drivers
Bigotry
Racism
Lying
Hypocrisy
Insincerity
Megalomania
Conceit
Greed
Ignorance
Cruelty
Selfishness
Computer problems of any kind
All my bills

@Amoebic I am very new here and at the time I wrote that you are funny, I had misread who had written the comment to whom I had been referring to. Sorry.

I had written: “Those were two whoppers.”

To which lynne wrote: <blush>

Which I thought was cute, funny.

Sorry about the misunderstanding. I need some more time to get the hang of this thing.

:-)

@lynne funny

@Bluefreedom Hear hear!

@Zen it can get a bit confusing!!! and if I were you…I wouldn’t go to another question site..this one is really cool…lots of lovely people

I just had a seven-hour download get down to the last ten minutes and then there was an error and it went back to the beginning. I want to cry.

@lynneblundell Still here?

obviously not…but am back now! yay!!

@zen – well, except for the vicious circle of violence the other parts happen elsewhere too, including Europe.

@mattbrowne Of course you are right. And how are you today my friend? Nice to see you.

@zen – I’m really getting used to Fluther. I really like the “Great answer” feature. Spring has finally come to Germany. What a long winter it was this year! I hope the G20 summit will be a success.

@mattbrowne Hey buddy – don’t worry, all your answers are great to me. Good to hear that spring has sprung. Here it’s quite different – not nearly enough rain this winter and there will be a serious water shortage.
