Why You Probably Annoy Me
www.joe.ie

Chances are, you annoy me. Whether you’re a neighbor, colleague, or stranger, there's almost always a reason to dislike you. For some of you, it's because you’ve lied to my face; but for others, it’s because you’ve sneezed slightly too close to me. People are irritating, and I’m pretty sure that’s a fact. Even when I find someone with plenty of likable qualities, there is a part of me that knows that with time, I will definitely be sick of them. Here’s a breakdown of every annoying person you experience day to day.


People who are older than you.

Most of the adults I know are either professors, friends of my parents, or random employees I have to deal with. Nine out of ten times the purpose of these people is to offer you pieces advice you just don’t need to hear. Even if you are a teacher that I like, or a surprisingly cool 60-year-old, there’s simply not enough of you to make up for the vast majority. Basically, we don’t want to know what you did in college (40 years ago). Also, whatever the real world is, I’m pretty sure I’ve already been living in it, but thanks for the tip.

Classmates.

There are two types of people you have in your classes -- people who are better than you, and people who are worse. The kid who participates at any given opportunity will probably do less than a point better than the class average, while simultaneously causing everybody else to hate them. There's also the kid who does absolutely nothing. This person is almost equally as annoying because you can literally feel the teacher’s frustration as they roll into class 15 minutes late. “Tripp,” or whatever your name is, no one is impressed by your lack of understanding of how much you’re paying to be here.

Everyone else.

Irritating people are unavoidable. From politicians to moody waitresses, it seems impossible to escape aggravation. In addition to random examples of individuals, there are also what I call irritation hotspots. A few examples of these include airports, DMV’s, and sports stadiums. TSA people are the literal worst. DMV employees definitely get hired based off how rude they can possibly be, and sports stadiums are continuously filled with obnoxious drunk people. I tend to avoid these places at all costs, but I’ll probably just end up being annoyed by the person driving in front of me anyway.

The end.

I’ve slowly come to terms with the fact that I get annoyed by literally everything. Though, if you think about it we kind of need annoying people. Life without screaming DMV ladies seems almost purposeless, and we probably need that advice from old people. Keep being annoying, and I’ll keep looking forward to the day I can also sneeze way too close to you.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
