Waking up and not feeling at all rested and your eyes hurt, your mouth tastes like old carpet and you slept on your arm so there's no blood there and it's all numb and lifeless, before the pins and needles and pain of blood returning to it stings you. In other words, the typical morning.

YES i hate that but what peeves me is when i wake up in the morning and one of my legs is asleep and you go to get up and you hit the floor like a stone that sucks !!

Just had a guy come into my office and ask me if if that was the Honda 2ooooooooG(said it just like that) outside. Not that is annoying.

I've had one of those legs asleep moments.... hopped out of bed, next thing I know I'm flat on my face and my cat is licking my neck to see if I was okay as I lay there groaning in pain

country music, and driver's who have that long "beepp" when they honk the horn, not just the normal "beep", but when they HAVE to hold it down for 30 seconds, and annoy the hell outta me..

Cat was probably checking to see if you were dead and be his meal since you wouldn't be able to feed him anymore.

EvoVII... i would annoy the piss out of you... even bought twin air horns to make my held honk... much much much louder and abnoxious.

1) Have to agree with mingster on this one... I hate... and i mean hate people that chew with their mouths open... especially if they make noise while doing it.
2) SUV drivers (sorry ladies but you seem to be the majority of drivers here i get annoyed at) Seems some like to 'feel' their way around rather than look or observe... hence the 130db blast (often prolonged) that comes from my stook.
3) Living in NASCAR hell here in Johnson City... I hear "is that a HONDUH" at least 2 times per week.. In fact had a guy pull up to me today in a huge dodge truck who jokingly asked if i had a hemi under the hood??? He was kind enough though and atleast gave a thumbs up
4) People who refuse to believe that oil has anything to do with the war in Iraq... while not the biggest issue and while we will not 'take' it, making sure it is available for sale (to us and other allies) is on the agenda.
5) My GF's country accent... arghhh.. and she does it to me on purpose in some of the most embarassing situations... and she knows it.
6) Making eye contact in traffic (mainly in town)... don't know why it just drives me up the wall.. Wish i could drive a stealth convertible... just get that errie feeling
7) Anyone who is strongly strongly against or strongly strongly pro war.. Noone knows all of the facts. Verbal outbursts in public are especially annoying
8) Got a thumbs down for the american flag on my windshield the other day in traffic...... never ever thought it would happen... ever. but it just got to me... extremely annoying.
9) That damn excuse from women....'it's just a car' Every time someone I know says this...especially a woman... i point out to her if she gets dressed up or has lot of makeup on...'it's just your face.' I've even heard it by some of the members of this board... if it were just a car... this internet community would not exist.
10) People who ask me to 'light up the tires'... do they actaully think i'm going to risk getting a ticket, wasting10-20 bucks in rubber, being obnoxious to other drivers, possibly rupturing something in the drivetrain so that a bunch of rednecks can receive a few moments of gratification before resuming the present task at hand?

Sorry there are so many... the list goes on!
