After an encounter last night, I was thinking about how easily some people get irritated.
This isn't necessarily a hint of how people react on here, but about life in general.
My question is, how easily do you get irritated?
Don't you get irritated too easily?
Have you some sort of tolerance for other people's inability to do things or act in a way you want?
It would be interesting to here people's view points on this matter.
very.
i hate bieng anoyed by people so as you'd guess i can shout and i can be violent when i want to
I do not suffer fools never have done ...however, if someone is having trouble I will try to help...stupidity, immaturity and ignorance, really annoy me unfortunately you rarely encounter one without the other 2.
who called you a fool
I just can't stand stupid people they are so much hard work and a danger to themselves and others...
This is a difficult question to answer. How easily I get irritated depends on a lot of things: the particular situation, what kind of mood I'm in, whether the person irritating me is someone I know or not, etc. I think people need to remember before they bite someone's head off about something that the other person may not be stupid, they might just be having a bad day.
Well, I think for me it also depends on much. mostly my mood. I'm a gemini, and so have incredible mood swings at times, and so may have a go at someone one minute, and laugh at them the next. I don't have a problem with helping people, we all need to start learning somewhere, it's just sometimes people inability to communicate on a reasonably intellegent level that really annoys me. If you have intellegence display it, you're more likely to make friends, and get help more easily when you need it.
hmm, well as for me, I get annoyed but not that easy. If someone gets in my bad side, they can be sure to not have a word from me directed to them again. Soetimes when someone gets on my nevrves, I just reamin quiet. Then they realize and then the are sorry. Works most of the time, but not guaranteed. Besides is something I personally do.
I'll have to agree with Angel and Devil on this one. I am usually a pretty laid-back guy, but some things and people can irritate me. I tend not to say anything in most cases just because it wouldn't do any good. But there are a lot of variables to consider as to when and how and how much I get irritated, so it's not an easy one to answer.

All people piss me off, there all a waste of air and such.
I rather get pissed off with myself or computers than with people. It depends on my mood: If I am tired or stressed, I get easily annoyed. If I am in a good mood, nothing can annoy or iritate me.
One thing that always irritates me, is when you're talking to e.g. person b, and out of nowhere, and without you asking, person c voices a (most of the time) useless, opinion.
Another thing I can't stand, is when people don't try to hide their own idiocy.
Quite a lot of things irritate me about people actuallly: A lack of punctuality, disorganization, constant cussing and/or using blatently bad grammar, Asking me to change my plans, and then changing their minds after I've gone to the trouble so that I've done it for naught.
Just the other day, a friend of mine's mom said she needed to borrow some money... I agree. She said she'd come pick it up immediately. Well, I'd previously made plans already, but I changed them, figuring she really needed the money.
Then, an hour later after she hasn't shown up, I call back to find out that she's decided not to come and will come pick it up tomorrow instead...
That annoyed me, because I had made plans to go grocery shopping, have a bit of fun, and just generally get out on the town.
I got irritated enough that I retracted my offer of lending her money, forcing her to have to go pawn her jewelry for the needed money.
I know it sounds cruel and perhaps petty, but if you're going to change my plans, you had damn well be punctual about your end. If I'm gonna be doing you a needed favour, the least you can do is not bloody ruin my day in thanks. *growls*
well, I guess I'm the most irritated by other people, more so than with things going wrong in nature. If something is irritating, it's irritating whether or not I'm in a good mood, which I am usually unless things just go wrong. I get a bit irritated with people who think I should be all engrossed in their interests, when they're not interested in mine, and change the subject before it's even begun. I get irritated at people who like to dictate and totally want to take over everything. I had a room on for the people for a while, and there was this man who'd come in, and it was alright for him and someone else to talk about they wanted for a long long time and forget other people in the room, but let me and other people talk about something we were into, and after giving a brief one sentence on the topic, he'd say, "and that's the end of that topic. It didn't bother me much the first time, but the more he did it, the more it began to annoy me. I I try to hide or at least get those kind of irritation levels under control, because what irritates me usually other people, it wouldn't even cross their mind. I think there are 3 kinds of annoying people. 1. the kind who don't know they're annoying. 2, those who know they're annoying, and couldn't care less, 3. those who know they're being annoying, and love being annoying. I don't think he was the 3rd kind, but I can't decide whether or not he fit in the number 1 or 2 category. As for people who constantly curse, I think they mostly like to do it, or it's addictive to them, like alcohol is addictive to others, and that's why they blow their stack if anyone even says anything about how they don't like it.

its jessica and i get erritated abut different things qucker then others like if someone said o i think you a bitch or something that might not fase me but if someone said o dogg you got a crappy atitude today but they just cussed someone out before they said that to me i would get pissed
I agree, Quinten.
I make people laugh because of the way I get wound up, and then rant randomly about stuff. I'll be sitting chatting on vt, and things may wind me up, if I'm already a bit grouchy, and I just start ranting even though the people talking to me can't do anything about what I'm ranting about. lol
irritating for me is very easy. I get irritated with stupid people, who are stupid by choice, not by mental handicap. Also I get annoyed by people who dance around issues and are not blunt.
Well it takes a lot for me to get irritated. However, if you do something I don't like or annoys me after so many times, I'll scream maybe. Sometimes I mumble to myself. That isn't good, but I do this. Nevertheless, I try my best not to let everyone know how irritated I am.
Over all I am fairly easy to get along with -- just don't upset me! *smile* O.k. I guess what has irritated me in the most resent past is when I somehow get myself in the situation of needing to be at 3 places at near to the same time and all in places that like across town of each other. One of the places is of my choosing and the other two may center around family needs. Usually I can arrange to have a time differance in getting to the first place then make the rounds as it were and the place I really want to be I may need to leave a bit early and there is an understanding that the family member I may need to pick up from work, well, they may have to wait like a half hour for me, after all I had to leave where I wanted to be by say a half hour early... somehow it all works out. Then in a situation if I am REALLY irritated about something and so much so, there have been a few rare occassions when I will simply go to my room and "sleep it off" and it is like wake me when the problem has came to some point of settling. Like if news of a family member who may be in another state and may be hurt seriously and can do nothing at the time and then what follows is that waiting time to hear that, all is clear or person can now be reached at... and then going to that location.
