welcome to the worst of the best podcast I am your host and returning with me today is my pretty much my co-host Jason
0:44
Jason how you doing pretty good for Better or For Worse here I am as a co-host to the worst of the best podcast
0:53
so this episode's kind of like a I would say it's a bonus episode but it's a surprise recording cuz on our last recording I made a big intro to say that
0:59
I'm going to be gone for the next little while but our ship had a change of schedule it's all positive nothing bad happened but we just we were able to
1:05
come alongside the jetty for a few days and recharge our batteries because old the ship's company is fully vaccinated
1:12
so we can there's a pause in the program between the two sales and they said hey guys since everyone's vaccinated go see
1:18
your family for a few days and come back to the ship later so I asked Jason hey do you want to do a podcast he's like
1:24
yeah after this episode same as before there's going to be a long long break uh until the next one and July August so
1:31
just keep that in mind you're listening to this whenever you're listening to it here we go Jason have you ever annoyed
1:37
anyone in your life before no wow no I haven't completely unaware of any moment in my life where
1:44
I've annoyed anybody that's amazing I've had the tendency to annoy annoy people in my life and it's funny the reason why
1:52
I chose this topic for today's discussion the top ways that we unknowingly or knowingly annoy people in
1:58
our life cu the sale that we were just on you know we got 200 Sailors on a ship you're in close quarters you see each
2:05
other all day every day there's just not a break from anybody there's a couple times that I was annoyed and there's a
2:10
couple times I think I was annoying people it's embarrassing because you don't want to be the person that annoys others everyone wants to think they've
2:16
got it figured out everybody likes to think I'm the one that has life figured out everyone else is annoying but the
2:22
truth of the matter I guarantee when people hear our list that they're going to say yeah I've been guilty of that so
2:29
at the end of this list Jason and I will pick the worst of these top annoying habits I think it could be twofold I
2:36
think Jason we could make two picks one of my Trace as a human this is the thing that I would love to not do anymore so
2:42
it's the worst right and the other one is just maybe and it could be the same thing right and the uh whatever annoying
2:48
habit you experience you think is the worst of these best Annoying habits that
2:54
people do why is it that we get annoyed what is it about the human psyche and
3:02
condition that we actually get annoyed or bothered I mean that's a conversation
3:08
that's probably long and not best suited for this podcast right now but just a
3:14
thought why are we annoyed by others it's a great question and that's food
3:19
for thought for people who are listening maybe they can tell us in our social medias uh or what have you no one ever
3:25
does just I'd like to pretend people interact with us that's a good question because I think it falls into the same
3:32
category as why do people like certain types of food or movies or books I think it just falls into things trigger joy
3:39
and annoyance the same way that you but you don't get to choose I think we've talked about that on our podcast before the idea of free will or the idea that
3:46
how do we even determine what bugs us we try our hardest to not react the way we would you know we'd like to react always
3:52
in a healthy Manner and maturity we' like to think that we can react in an
3:58
appropriate way but it seems odd that we are annoyed and if we're annoyed it's
4:03
rare that we probably respond appropriately or we even the inner dialogue that we have in our minds isn't
4:10
probably very good either but let's get on the list yeah so number 50 not being
4:16
ready to order when you get to the counter so like you know McDonald's or
4:21
Tim Horns or Starbucks or whatever so your turn is at the counter and yeah you're sit there um uh yeah Let's uh
4:31
I'll take I've never done that I think we all have do that every single time
4:37
you have like 10 minutes in line and you're like didn't use that time to prepare for the order I can understand
4:42
if it's a restaurant or a place you've never been to before but let's be honest if you go to Starbucks daily or Tim
4:48
Horton or whatever it is on a regular basis most people most people are pretty good about you know give me a double
4:53
double with the doughnut or whatever it might be they have their I will work on this I will make sure when I'm at a restaurant it's my turn to order at a
5:00
drive-through or whatever it might be get your order ready to go so really you're here to help the people behind
5:07
the counter well maybe the people behind you that are waiting as well yeah but also the staff member just get that
5:12
order rapid fire let's go let's go time is precious okay number 49 keeping your phone sound on yeah who still does this
5:20
I haven't heard my phone in 5 years I have no idea what it sounds like I despise the sound of notifications
5:28
mine's on silent I have an iPhone and there's an actual little switch on it
5:33
which is genius where it can completely silence all the notifications I have it on do not
5:39
disturb I guess all the time because I don't even want it to vibrate and partly because I just don't want it to go off
5:46
at the wrong time like at a work meeting or something so I always just have notifications off and yeah that's easy
5:53
but but every now and then you'll hear the person that has the what alert did you receive or text
5:58
message that you receive that oh oh I got to respond to that right now yeah all right 48 oh gushing about new
6:07
relationships than go I just heard an alert you got to be kidding
6:12
me that is funny I just annoyed myself and you everybody else well Jason uh if
6:18
you don't mind me saying this didn't annoy me by the way because you're my brother and I want you to be happy but when you and Mary were you know started
6:24
dating boy you were just head over heels and excited and as a brother I was very happy for you but I can see how at times
6:31
for others you know especially if you're not in a relationship or a healthy relationship you don't want to hear about other people's but I don't think
6:37
we did anything over the top per se we announced that we were in a relationship couple of our hikes or walks or we went
6:42
on a vacation to Hawaii and stuff I think that's is normal course of life you have to make the announcement or you
6:49
don't have to at some point people are going to know oh sure it's good news like yeah I'm in a relationship with
6:54
somebody and you might see this person at future events so it's good to inform people that there's somebody significant
7:00
in your life I've seen it on Facebook where that ad na yeah it's like get a room guys like and I could almost argue
7:07
people that you know brag about their relationships oh I just have the best wife oh I just have the best husband and
7:13
I'm always well sucks for me cuz I thought I had the best wife I guess I have the second I know it's just like I'm glad they're happy in their
7:19
relationship but you always got to wonder why are you overindulging your relationship does are we trying to reinforce something that might be
7:25
struggling I don't know number 47 talking incessantly about your diet it's
7:30
no mystery Jason that you and I have through the last few years we've changed eating habits we've done what's
7:36
basically called I think you still follow it but for me the easiest way to say to people is I do keto and I hate
7:42
calling it keto because it just brings a whole dialogue that I don't really want to talk about I just tried to say oh I don't eat bread or I don't eat pasta low
7:48
carb low carb no sugar yeah like low carb almost zero sugar like if his sugar
7:55
was rated from 1 to 100 I would say low carb five sugar you know out of 100 I know I have a coworker who's probably
8:01
listening I know he's listening to this episode and he he's vegan I think we were working together for the first week
8:07
or two and I will give him credit I think it took two weeks before he mentioned he was [Laughter]
8:14
vegan I think it's great that people are happy it's like relationships it's a relationship they have with your body and food and people are excited that
8:22
they are doing something that they feel moral about or uh excited about or they're eating healthy great all the
8:27
more power to you but I agree it can get annoying and I I try very very hard to never talk about my keto because I don't
8:35
want people to think I'm looking at them as oh you eat sugar oh you eat carbs I
8:41
it's just what I'm choosing to do but I could care less if you drank soda and eight chips and ice cream every day I
8:47
don't I personally don't care so I try hard not to talk about it I probably comment more often than I should but I
8:54
also feel that there is some damage within the standard American diet
8:59
especially with those that I care about it could be sensitive I've had people say to me oh don't you know the effects of really quickly I always say would you
9:06
rather ate chips McDonald's I don't understand what you're trying to tell me that's yes I've had that comment with a
9:11
a few people too where they seen attack for eating healthy and then they would
9:18
use that argument like okay so you would feel less threatened if I sat down and
9:24
ate a bowl of ice cream with you yeah it's it's odd yeah that's all I've done as you name the junk food I've just
9:30
eliminated it that's the easiest way to say it that's it yeah and I choose not to eat bread oo crazy okay yeah I know
9:36
anyway let's not have that conversation we might be annoying people yeah I think we just annoyed a few of our
9:42
listeners not wiping down the machines at the gym well it's not just annoying it's
9:47
gross yeah any kind of cleanliness uh you almost just say people not washing their hands or whatever but yeah you're
9:53
sweating you're dripping and you're sharing the equipment especially in today's Co Society but you know absolutely wipe the machine when you're
10:00
done absolutely yeah number 45 bringing smelly food to work totally agree is a
10:06
shared really I just chug my shoulders I have strong smell scents whatever you
10:12
call it I and I'll smell things that at a level that I know other people aren't smelling I this is proven that people do
10:19
have different senses and my smelling sense for whatever reason is very strong very active I don't like smelling other
10:25
people's food I it's a weird concept I know I don't want to smell what you brought from home if I'm smelling the shared food that we're eating at a
10:31
restaurant I'm all game for that I don't want to smell what you brought from your house to our Shar see this is this is
10:36
interesting this is where I go like what annoys people and why we get annoyed and it's subjective like to me that seems
10:43
very subjective what you find pit I might find amazing so okay number 44
10:50
using overly familiar nicknames like sweetie hun you get the old school um
10:56
server okay love I had a habit the other day at at the it was at a grocery store
11:02
the woman was 10 to 15 years old I me she's probably close to 60 and she just
11:08
kept calling me hun there hey there hun I just want to pay for my groceries I don't know if annoyed is the word I'm
11:14
not a fan of that either I know she means no harm by it and it's a way to
11:19
create a um a non-threatening conversation I'm not a fan of it either
11:25
yeah all right snap in your gum I don't blow bub and pop them but I can actually
11:31
put the gum in my back part of my mouth between you know the teeth at the back and I can create an air pocket so I I go
11:38
C cck and I can actually crack crack crack with I can make air bubbles within the gum create the air bubble and crunch
11:44
down on the on the gum and pop the air bubble been able to do it for decades so
11:49
I'm sure it probably drives people crazy I'm not a fan of gum in general and anything that's like orderly
11:56
like you're referencing that you got something in your mouth mouth it's all sloppy and
12:03
saliva yeah so yeah you would drive me crazy if I had to hear that number 42
12:10
posting vague status updates on social media yes yes I hate this what a day why
12:21
today yeah I have a few friends on Facebook who do this they're guilty of this and I don't care if they know it
12:27
I'm not saying their name if you're if you do this we all hate it we all know it's called vague booking by the way that's the uh nickname vague booking
12:35
yeah it's a really weak way of trying to get people's sympathy and interactions
12:40
or uh response I've seen this one too when people not not just that where people say stuff like this you know what
12:47
you did right I'm reading I can't even though this person has 700 friends on Facebook or whatever I'm like wait wait
12:53
wait a minute was that me was that directed at me it because it puts you on your guard and that vague book makes you
12:58
feel defend and on guard you're like was I the person that upset this individual so if you vague book any listeners stop
13:06
it's annoying and it's pathetic I hear what you're saying it puts people on edge because you feel like you're the
13:12
offending individual that made those people feel the way but they're in a stuck in a position where they can't say
13:18
exactly who bugged them or hurt them or offended them it's not a good way to
13:23
communicate number 41 running late yeah this annoys me when I am in a intently
13:29
late for something I'm annoyed when other people are late and and it affects
13:34
me absolutely I'm going to get a little Soap Box a here I'm in the military so we we call it timings you know make your
13:41
timings the saying in the military is if you're 10 minutes early you're 5 minutes late so it's like whatever the timing is
13:49
just get there that much earlier I always leave way too early for work but I just always account for things just
13:55
that might happen isn't it better to wait where you belong long than to leave
14:00
at the last minute oh I completely agree my kids will attest to how much I detest
14:08
being late I love my wife but I swear there's times she's getting ready when we have to leave I don't know I don't
14:14
maybe other husbands could attest I'm sorry I'm calling out the woman a little bit it's a we see in sitcoms and TV
14:20
shows it's always the woman running late it's enough that they write these series and TV shows that's it's enough of a
14:26
what do you call it a stereotype but I'm sure there's many men that are late to but you know what I'm talking about it's
14:31
always the woman taking a little bit longer than the guy to get ready in the morning type thing starting a sentence with no offense or I'm just being honest
14:40
oh yeah yeah oh you're being honest this time are you okay it never it's never no
14:45
offense I think you're a great guy that doesn't make sense no offense but you're always running
14:51
late yeah then never works out for either party there's probably a more effective way to communicate someone's
14:58
behavior that might might be troubling you and you could just say when you run late for example with the previous
15:03
example when you run late it causes these things happen to me in the process you don't have to say no offense but
15:10
you're always late and it bugs me there's a way you can try to communicate a little bit better there's not a very tactful way to communicate your after
15:16
you say no offense or I'm just being honest and this is the thing about no offense and uh I'm just being honest I
15:23
hate it when people say it because I'm just being honest is just so your way of saying I'm going to give you my
15:29
unfiltered opinion it's got nothing to do with honesty it's got nothing to do with being honest you might be giving your honest opinion but you're using the
15:37
word honest like some sort of Truth is being revealed no you're telling me how
15:42
I make you feel honestly but when you're saying I'm just being honest that's not
15:48
a an open invitation to be brutal to somebody that's just my opinion well you're also making it sound
15:54
like that that's the actual fact of a situation exactly you're the purveyor of
15:59
all things true number 39 not letting people off an elevator before you get on
16:05
oh yeah I just would like to get off on this floor please no no I'm coming in
16:11
bus Subway or bus or yeah yeah the bus is a big one too I would that's the same category the bus stops and people like
16:18
to get off the bus they have to get off yeah leaving red receipts on and they're
16:25
not responding referring to a text message and stuff yeah sometimes you're just not
16:30
in a position to respond right away or you have to think about a response or I wasn't you know I have to check the
16:36
message to see if it's something I actually have to deal with oh it's you show me a picture of a cat Okay I'm
16:45
going to respond later I don't have time to do it it's not an appropriate time for me to respond I needed to make sure
16:51
that it wasn't something I had to respond to right away so say some of the door so just keep recording but let me
16:56
be right back that was annoying uh somebody came to the door and I left the item that she
17:02
required outside the door so she didn't have to interrupt the uh podcast recording and uh she didn't see it till
17:10
I opened the door oh it's there like yeah it's there and then I had that that awkward conversation but small talk is
17:15
kind of those things like okay we're going to small talk so we're not being rude but the things the task is taken care of we don't have to have a long
17:21
conversation okay yeah regarding the leaveing rece I totally agree with you Jason that is the um what do you call it
17:28
the it out of the situation is yes people can get the text they've received it but they either they're driving which
17:34
you shouldn't be checking your phone or you're in the middle of a other conversation with somebody whatever the reason be you're not ready to respond or
17:40
you don't have a response it could be something important like someone says hey can you help me move tomorrow but
17:45
the workaround for that is be patient with people know their behavior are they this way in the past and they don't get
17:51
back to you chances are they're just busy like you said the second thing you do I know iPhones have this is you can turn your receipts off you can read the
17:58
text and the person who sent the text will see that it was delivered and they'll never see if it's read or not
18:03
yeah but I don't don't think Facebook Messenger has that many of my messages come no that's just text mess you write
18:11
the Facebook and Instagram is it tells you who's seen it I see stuff and I'm at work and I just can't stop and start
18:17
texting a response yeah I can do a quick look because I want to make sure that it's not something important yeah
18:24
depending on what the text was it could increase or decrease your annoyance like if you're watching the hockey game or
18:31
hey uh my dad died so again it all depends on the context of the text and
18:36
who you're giving it to and so I guess with that one be patient with people you just don't know what their situation is when they receive it all right 37
18:43
clicking a pen I've have told people can you stop click click click click and it's just driving if they're quite
18:50
frankly if they're a lower rank I can do that that's a little Annoying that's fair enough yeah 36 years standing too
18:58
close to other people in the line yes I can see that as being annoying respect
19:04
people's face bubbles yeah you don't want to have someone Brea on your neck at a in a Walmart look you're not going
19:09
to get to the bank teller any faster if I'm in front of you whether you're three feet or a foot go until I go you might
19:17
as well just hang tight I would assume it's the same people the tailgate they think by getting behind you closer it'll
19:22
somehow move the lineup faster or turn the red light green exactly and so I was
19:28
say people standing too close to you you're probably the same people who drive really close tailgate somebody
19:33
Tailgators are the worst I can't drive faster than I'm going a because of might
19:39
be you know literally breaking the law like quite a bit or C I actually have nowhere to go so I don't know what you
19:44
want me to do other than stress me out yeah yeah especially in a single a situation you're a single a traffic and
19:51
there's other people in front of you or you know maybe there might be people in front of you that are like not
19:57
comfortable on the road that they're on tailgating it doesn't make any sense to me but anyway 35 trying to sneak into a
20:04
line in the middle instead of getting the back we've all seen this uh lines are pretty simple you just you know we
20:10
go to the end of the line but I think we've all seen it and maybe even done it once in our life trying to sneak into
20:15
the middle of a line this kind of reminded me of the merge right merging situation and traffic you know how
20:22
merging works and you want to allow people to let you in during a merge the
20:28
people that don't allow you to merge when you're turn to merge into a lane so like yeah the line works by you start
20:36
the back and you wait your turn we all know how a merge works you allow people
20:42
in and you hope that that is reciprocated when it's your turn to merge into a lane basically take your
20:48
turn yeah okay so number 34 somehow making every conversation about you I've
20:53
never done that we're all guilty of it again depending on the context
20:59
depending on the relationship of course obviously if I'm talking to my wife I
21:04
admit I might be talking about my day my frustrations at work she could be talking about the frustrations not
21:09
frustration it Mak sound but but that's what a partner is for is to talk about your hardships your trials and also talk
21:15
about your Joys but I think this is more specifically yes like co-workers maybe
21:20
extended family members we all do this I think we're everyone's guilty of this and this is my challenge to somebody and
21:27
to myself actually next time you're having a conversation with somebody just make it not a game
21:33
but yeah like a challenge or a game with yourself I'm going to have a conversation with this person I'm going to make a more concerted effort to have
21:41
a conversation but not say I I think is this also goes back to listen if you
21:47
listen more and talk less then the chances are the conversation won't be monopolized by you or come back to it
21:56
being about you quick example yeah of course goes I'm not feeling very well today I've got an upset stomach oh yeah
22:03
me too I feel sick today too yeah we do that you know or or the last couple days I've been
22:09
sick that's not where the conversation the person who started the conversation that's probably not where they wanted
22:14
the conversation to go was it being recycled or regurgitated to it being about you that might be a quick example
22:21
it's a very good example of making every conversation about you where the response should have been just oh I'm
22:27
sorry to hear that I hope you feel better soon exactly texting while walking yeah we see people do this uh
22:34
checking their phones Facebook status I've been guilty of this boy our phones
22:40
I miss being without a phone in fact I wondered sometime what was life like I mean we're talking not even that long
22:47
ago early 2000s late 90s early even up to like 2008 I don't think I quite had a
22:52
smartphone till maybe 2009 10 or 2008 I probably got my first legit iPhone I
22:58
mean I had a cell phone of course but you just literally used it for calling I never even texted it on those things
23:04
texting while walking is it is that the new normal I don't know not really annoying but I think it's just a
23:10
observation how much can you just wait can you just call that person and just Tex in general like a lot of things can
23:17
just be done so much quicker with a phone call conversation than a text conversation in in defense of it though
23:24
is you're multitasking sure that's fair walking and you're in a gr grocery store
23:29
and somebody goes hey can you grab an extra dozen eggs I'm going to grab it thanks for letting me know you need it I
23:35
think it just runs to the problem where you're distracted and I've seen it people you actually go on YouTube you yeah sorry go on YouTube and stuff you
23:41
can actually see people like fall into water fountain sure if it's done in a way that you're interfering with other people's
23:47
flow traffic or interfere with their ability to safely move around you or you're being you know a danger to them
23:54
then that makes sense blocking the sidewalk to get a photo or upsetting any kind of traffic flow let's say that's
24:02
number three2 that's number three2 sometimes we want to get that great perfect you know Instagram photo
24:08
whatever and we kind of Grant to people are courteous and what have you but it's it's not something I've experienced very
24:14
very much but I just hope I'm not in the picture I don't like being in other people's photos that I don't know if
24:20
you're blocking the sideway to get a photo I just hope I'm not in it I'm going to run you over eating loudly yes
24:28
yes yes yes slurping
24:33
um back to me not liking gum that's fair in general I don't like watching people
24:39
eat it's an no that's why I don't like gum there's something about it feels I
24:44
don't know kind of almost intimate is yeah it's I don't like watching people eat I actually hate it also don't like
24:50
seeing people sleep is that annoying is that one of the 50 anyway taking both
24:58
armrests okay that's just rude an airplane or whatever if there's two armrests and stuff like you got to allow
25:05
somebody to use one of the two number 29 sniffing loudly instead of blowing your
25:12
nose you're a little bit of a I wish I clear
25:18
that earlier before I was Public Work spot especially when you go from like outside inside it was a cold outside or
25:24
a little bit right your body is still adjusting to the climate or whatever so it's good to carry hanky I admit
25:31
maybe you don't have anything to blow your nose on I agree so you're kind of just do do little quick little with your
25:38
knuckle reverse fireman blow you got to do a reverse fireman sniff just like
25:45
bring it all in okay listening to music on your headphones loud enough so other people can hear I just think they're
25:51
just showing off that they're right into their music how exciting my life is and how happy and joyful I am I would put in
25:59
the same category music in their car I love rock and roll and I want to hear loud you know but like I only have to
26:05
stock stereo in my car it's pretty good sound but it came with the vehicle for me to enjoy the music I I hear it but
26:11
there's some systems where you know as the driver of the car you're making sure people around you hear it too and that I
26:17
do find that b is like a block away that's a little bit ridiculous we get it you have a system that expands beyond
26:25
your vehicle listening I I think it's more yeah they seem to behave in I want
26:30
to show off at how amazing my system is rather than they are actually enjoying the experience of having that system
26:38
fishing food out of your teeth number 27 I don't like watching people eat so I don't want to watch people do this
26:45
though I do appreciate it when they get the job done because I don't want to look at the food in their teeth yeah it
26:51
rarely does it go on for more than a split second of them going I got something and they do it quick I always
26:57
carry those plastic toothpicks with me I do too and I do sometimes I'll pick at my teeth cuz I I like cleaning my teeth
27:04
I like the idea that I'm getting the plaque out and food or whatever but I do have to be more cogent not to do it
27:10
around people I tried to do it when I'm not around people cuz I don't think people like to watch I actually don't like to look at people play with their
27:16
teeth it happens every now and then I mean we all need to have the ability to get something out and it's highly
27:22
annoying when you do have something stuck and you feel the pressure or whatever you're self-conscious about it yeah get it get it out I agree it out
27:29
yeah stopping short while walking oh like so somebody just pauses in mid
27:35
midst step like oh yeah I thought about something and they just kind of like stopped and had like an epiphany in the
27:41
middle of the shopping center or crosswalk or number 25 oh here we go
27:48
leaving the toilet seat up is it up for the guy is it down for the girl yeah you know how I solve this problem is I just
27:55
put the whole seat down including the lid there you go I actually prefer not seeing open Toilet hole either way so I
28:04
just put the lid down that solves it and we're both obligated to put the seat in
28:09
the position that we prefer to have it when we go to use it I agree so I think for now on Jason I think we should to
28:15
all of our listeners everyone should just put everything down it's gender it's gender neutral it's a gender
28:21
because everyone has to open it to use it I don't want to assume how you use your toilet bowl experience I'm kind of
28:27
also like afraid that something will fall in to the toilet well you want the stuff to fall
28:34
into there's only appropriate things that should fall into the toilet but 24 rsvping at the last minute again depends
28:42
you know if it's a wedding you kind of want to be courteous and let the wedding party know of how many people expect so
28:48
they can budget and that goes for well birthdays too uh you've had young kids of course I've had young kids and I
28:53
still do now people wouldn't respond or you didn't know or they show up and so you kind of have to do the my gauging of
28:59
okay these people responded I'm pretty sure the other people are coming it's just plight to respond so people can
29:04
budget and plan what to prepare I agree humming along number 23 humming along
29:09
with the song in public I think it kind of falls into that loud music category quite frankly it's the same idea we've
29:15
all seen it my life is so good I'm not a fan I'm
29:21
not a fan like don't whistle a song Don't hum a song what is annoying about
29:28
that I don't know but it seems to be irritating not replacing not replacing
29:33
the toilet paper roll I've seen it when people literally put the toilet paper roll on top of the old roll like
29:40
the it's like hey I I got new toilet paper but I'm not going to do the actual exchange and put on the roll it's also
29:47
similar to when you do the drier lint so you take out all your clothes you did the you took all your clothes out of the
29:53
dryer but you also don't take the lint out of the lint trap in the dryer
29:58
so the next person that puts the clothes in their dryer they're doing a load they have to take out your lint prior to
30:05
allowing their clothes to go through the dryer it's annoying it's also the worst when you did check the toilet paper and
30:13
you're like oh they actually just end up using the the cardboard roll Salvage what you
30:22
can taking a phone call at the gym or I would even say at any kind of public
30:28
look I like we said before texting multitasking I get it like your wife calls or your kids call you want to be
30:34
able to talk to them but you can always tell the different types of conversations between the ones where it's hey can you pick up this at the
30:41
store on your way home versus the conversational conversations that we all get to listen to I always find it weird
30:48
and I saw this twice within like an hour I was at a a beach this past weekend and
30:54
um just hanging out and there's two different people that were having like a
31:01
full-on speaker phone conversation that's the weird one to me
31:07
is I can literally hear the other person talk while the person that's right there
31:15
is also responding I'm hearing both sides of a conversation it's not that I'm like annoyed I'm just so kind of
31:21
surprised that people are that open with their which seems to be would have been a private conversation going to express
31:27
PR check out with more than 10 items or whatever the item allotment is I don't know if I find it annoying I almost find
31:34
it ballsy When You Buck the system a little bit is budding in line or not
31:39
allowing a proper merge to happen or but I I've seen it happen I don't think I've ever been annoyed by it I think I just
31:45
find it rude I think I I don't scoff and say how dare you but we've all everyone has seen it I don't I'm not annoyed by
31:52
it again ballsy because you know you're doing it so you either know you're going to get word from the cashier and or from
31:59
other people looking at you I actually have entered the express line accidentally I didn't realize the
32:05
express line and I quite had more I felt very embarrassed the the cashier all all
32:12
cuz she could tell I was legitimately like oh I'm so sorry I didn't even notice they ran me through but I
32:18
remember how sheepish and shameful I felt because nobody else heard the conversation that cashier was okay with
32:24
it that I was it was an inadvertent but you know people start know coming the lineup and they see my card it's obvious
32:30
that this guy did not have 10 items I was like it's not me it was an accident she said it was okay she took me 19
32:37
talking at the movies yeah you know granted we don't go to the movies anymore the way we used to with covid
32:43
but it's coming back so this will come back to this is annoying and I uh it's
32:49
this is beyond annoying it's completely rude I always feel this way at concerts too not say you can't speak to you oh
32:55
that's a cool song that's not that's and it's the same idea a but we you and I have been to many concerts and it's
33:00
still I've had people have full on or or hockey games I've been to where people are having full on conversations behind
33:07
me at a a sporting event and sporting events seems very yeah it's like okay
33:12
we're watching the game and I paid money for this game and I'm actually hearing your yeah that conversation even though
33:18
it's okay to say to your you know who you're with your friends oh man amazing goal or oh man I can't believe they did that yeah you're talking about the game
33:24
but they were having a conversation had nothing to do with the sporting event and it never ended and movies are even
33:30
the worst there's a couple experiences that I've had where people I'm not even in the theater you know I'm kind of more
33:36
a home environment talking while the movie is happening
33:42
yeah yeah yeah asking questions about the movie We're actually watching instead of asking questions watch the
33:49
movie and all your questions will be answered and if your questions can't be answered by the end of the movie uh then
33:54
you watch the Christopher Nolan film right just listen to the dialogue and maybe
34:01
you'll catch something instead of asking while a dialogue is occurring putting
34:06
something back at the wrong Shelf at the grocery store probably annoying for the worker yeah pretty convenient for me
34:13
it's very convenient for me I do my best to go back if I ever have to I I really
34:20
do try sometimes I can't find the exact spot is something I picked up I'm like uh this is close enough like sometimes
34:26
you'll see stuff like that's like cheese it's like by the salad dressing you're like it should be the
34:33
refrigerator area for all our uh convenience store or grocery store workers who listen I apologize uh on
34:40
behalf of past Behavior I have annoyed a those workers but I think I I wouldn't say it's part for the course but I
34:46
suspect that's part I hate to say part of their job but I would say part of the job of is they keep the AIS the one
34:52
thing that kind of relates to this is when you see people like leave their like coffee cups or pop can that they
34:58
were drinking and they brought it into the store and then they just leave it on the Shelf replying all that's a great
35:05
function we doing a group project or whatever but we've all seen it I think for the most part I don't think it's
35:10
annoying per se but it's semi annoying I'll get responses at work this definitely happens at work over the
35:16
years very rarely with my home email because I don't get that many group emails but definitely at work I've seen
35:23
it where I get CCD or I'm part of the responses I don't think I have the hero
35:29
of this conversation and you have to start like digging through your through the email was like especially again at
35:34
work as in the military like do I have to know this cuz I have to start parsing things like how much do I have to know
35:40
because I already know have to know more than I would like to and I my brain's only so big I can only take so much
35:47
information finishing a food item and putting the container back in the fridge yeah I'm pretty stingy so maybe I put
35:54
something back like mustard or ketchup but I think there might be a you out of this or to cuz I okay here's an example
36:01
maybe it doesn't happen to your household but I've had this experience the breed of water filter you put the
36:06
water in top it up people use it throughout the day and then it you go to
36:12
grab the burrito later in the day and there's like no water in it is it Brea or brda I don't know oh that's fine I
36:19
just I I I don't know I might be saying it wrong I might be saying it wrong too but CBR r i t a water
36:28
yeah yeah I agree cuz that takes time to filter the water so if you've emptied the water fill back up because yeah
36:34
because the next time someone wants to go in there they want the cold filtered water though I will admit I do like room
36:40
temperature water but filtered is good oh really yeah I'm I don't I do not like
36:45
cold water oh I will not drink water unless it's ice cold that's interesting I and I know there's a divide on that
36:51
too but I I will drink it if it's offered I'm thirsty but tap water temperature like we just
36:58
that's interest yeah well all right so parking too close to the line in a
37:03
parking lot or I would even say know over the line or too close to somebody in general essentially what the
37:09
annoyance here is and we've all experienced especially when parking is scarce somebody Park so close to and on
37:15
the line their vehicle is such where they know the size of their vehicle and the way they've parked is I
37:20
actually can't use that spot now it's just enough where it's very frustra trust them to get out of the parking
37:26
spot without them having hit your car to get out even sometimes there's that now the other thing that's I find more
37:33
almost or equally annoying is you go like I'm G to park kind of a little bit
37:38
of Wass from everything I'm going to park where it's nice and open I'm not going to be sandwiched in tight little
37:45
spaces so I purposely Park in an area where it's open you come back and like
37:52
literally the parking lot is still fairly open but the person decides to park right beside your car I'm like
37:59
there's a whole parking lot full of empty spaces but you decide to park right beside my car it's the same with
38:06
us men when you're stand a urinal and I take the W away the left someone's like there's like five open ones with the guy
38:13
I'm going to take the one right next to you just slides in right beside you it's like he's slipping you a DM oh
38:19
14 tapping your feet yeah this goes along with I mean a song whistling a
38:25
tune snapping your gum clicking a pen tapping your feet actually you know it
38:30
also to me signifies sometimes it's like oh I'm bored or I got something better to do than sit here and be with you that
38:37
feeling of being uh they impatient with your with the presence that they're around actually there's a couple
38:44
co-workers that I have one right now I've worked with others and they might be just a nervous tick but they bounce
38:50
their legs same idea they're constantly like their leg is just hopping so they're sitting their leg is so I guess
38:56
it's tapping but they're to was on the ground they're lifting their heel up and down and the heel is not quite touching the ground this one guy that I work with
39:03
or I've worked with in the past I don't work with now just to protect the guilty he's always moving he's always moving
39:08
always moving like just swaying back and forth back and forth back and forth like he's just always moving always moving it's like stop moving it it annoys me I
39:16
admit cuz I notice it it might not annoy the people because they haven't made note of it I guarantee to you if I
39:22
pointed it out to somebody they would then notice it and they're like ah why' you tell me because now that's all I see so number 13 talking ad nauseum about
39:29
how busy you are so this kind of falls into you know talking about yourself when you mention and we get this again
39:35
at work or uh family people or whoever and they just say oh man I'm so busy at home and I've done this so I'm guilty of
39:42
this and I don't think I've done it ad nauseum and if I have to my listeners I apologize because I do talk about uh to
39:49
my co-workers or I have mentioned which is still true but I maybe won't do it as much cuz I didn't realize this might
39:55
annoy people cuz it could be a humble break and it's not meant to be but I will say that going to work is easier
40:01
than going home my life at home is much harder than my my job it's just maybe the nature of my job but when I come
40:07
home taking care of kids and homework and laundry oh that is you're not relaxing I always say my job begins when
40:14
I go home this reminds me of this uh talking at na about how busy you are
40:20
reminds me of kind of the vague book comments where people will go on Facebook and complain about how little
40:27
time they have to do the things that are important to them or I'm so busy uh I've
40:33
got a book report I got to go to work at two hours and whatever it is that
40:38
they're seeing how busy they are and I always feel like responding well then you should probably get off Facebook and
40:43
start commenting about how busy you are and use your time differently and they're on Facebook telling people how busy they are I'm say well Facebook's
40:49
the least productive place for you to be then so get off yeah I agree totally
40:54
agree I can't sleep get off your device yeah turn off your TV turn off
41:01
the screen turn off the device read a book listen to our podcast we'll put you to sleep all right not returning your
41:06
shopping cart again I think this might annoy the the workers more than the customers but it's rude think it's more
41:13
rude than annoying yeah I agree number 11 sing the long to a song like you're
41:19
trying to win a Grammy it kind of ties in with people that uh hum or but we've
41:24
all heard the person who thinks they can sing and they can't sing I'm not talking about the fun type of sing where you know you're bad and
41:30
you're singing that's fine you're having fun you're at a party whatever okay I've heard people sing Jason where they think
41:35
they can sing but they actually can't but they believe they can I don't know why I find I find I find false
41:41
confidence in your inability to perform actually annoying I don't want to sound
41:46
like a party pooper but life isn't a [Laughter]
41:52
musical and it doesn't really fit into day and day life don't stop
41:58
believe yeah I can't sing either so maybe that's part of the problem is I have a secret resentment to not being
42:04
able to sing refusing to walk single file on a crowded sidewalk this is like
42:10
for busy cities like I guess I don't know like New York or LA or when you're traveling in foot traffic yeah you it's
42:16
almost the same rules of car traffic you got to yeah respect the road and you can't just like have five of you
42:22
occupying a sidewalk when people are trying to walk the other way yeah number nine not holding the door for the person behind you the idea is yeah the person
42:29
in front holds the door open for you so they go through and you take over the door holding procedure especially with this a long line like you wouldn't just
42:35
walk past the person because yeah they could be standing there forever so the idea is you're taking over door Duty and
42:41
if you're the last person then the door just shuts behind you but if there's 30 people behind you then those 30 people will take a turn holding the door maybe
42:46
for a couple people the most but don't leave the guy hanging I think most people are pretty good about that I think so starting an order so like a
42:55
restaurant starting an order with can I get a when I order food I will actually
43:00
say I will have the burger and fries I will have a Diet Coke please then thank
43:07
you but I don't say can I have that unless it's legitimately are you questioning is this on the menu but if
43:12
you're looking the menu can I have the pizza no it's on the menu but that's a
43:18
trick that is the one food item that you cannot have like when you're at a restaurant order I'll have the uh
43:23
special I'll have the uh the Hawaiian pizza I'll have that please or at the
43:29
very least the more play may I may I please have but the can I think is the key word can right yes you can have this
43:35
that's why we've provided this as a menu option right interesting so at the very
43:41
least yes you could say may I please have well that's something I can be more aware of I I I literally have no idea
43:46
how I would start in order all right number seven not standing to one side on an escalator this is the same thing as the sidewalk rule or whatever if you
43:54
don't want to walk up the stairs I think the rule thumb is is you go to the right that's the slow lane you leave the left
44:00
part of the escalator open for those who want to kind of hop up the steps yeah that makes good sense but people do block that and you can't move yeah
44:07
humble bragging yeah this is it's not a good look like for example I had to hire a housekeeper because my new house is
44:13
just too big for me to take care of alone see this is another behavior that
44:19
you see often I can't think of examples right now but I can pick out moments where people humble brag on Facebook
44:27
they'll do a picture of themselves Smiley and happy and they'll have some like positive quote underneath of it and
44:34
they're trying to combine the fact that they look good in this picture to go along with the the quote has something
44:40
to do oh I can think of all five friends and I think we've all been guilty of it to degree but I can think of a few
44:47
Facebook friends who yeah it's what a I can't believe my hair looked like this today when I woke up right yes yes
44:54
you're gorgeous you're hot then yeah they sit there and wait for everybody to say how amazing they look I
45:01
can't I can't believe that you're not wearing makeup that's amazing wow no filter yeah yes you're ugly in real life
45:09
I know a few people that they seem to every post that they do includes a
45:15
picture of themselves so our challenge to you guys is see how long you can post
45:21
without showing yourself but you know it's your social media of course use it as you want but you're you're going to annoy people in the that's what we're
45:27
saying so using all caps I have a friend and he listens to this podcast he went
45:33
through this phase where he would text in Old caps and we said why are you doing that and I think the moment we
45:40
acknowledged that he did it he wouldn't let go he finally does it anymore but if he's listening to this I can fully expect the next text to be old caps and
45:46
you know who you are buddy you know who you are there may have been a moment where people were ignorant as to what that might have meant like I may not
45:53
have you know understood why all caps but I'm not sure why would do all caps to begin with since capital letters are
46:00
typically used in a very specific situation but I mean we're all aware
46:05
that all caps signifies yelling so oh no he wasn't all caps my apologies to this
46:11
individual it was even worse he capitalized each new word Oh weird
46:17
that's a lot of effort that is a lot of effort sorry it wasn't old caps yes you
46:22
know who you are it was annoying I'm sorry he's a very good friend
46:27
and I know he listens to the show now watch he's going to send me a go ahead cause more work for yourself but you're
46:32
knowing in the process number three wearing too much perfume or clone agreed
46:38
I think this falls into that again cuz I'm the smell right so This falls into the smell for me I don't want to smell
46:43
you good or bad I don't want to smell you I don't want to smell what you ate on your breath I don't want to smell the dinner you brought into our common area
46:50
I don't want to smell you at all good or bad I don't it's the worst when somebody walks by you and you know they got the
46:56
the the drift of air will come behind that person especially complete stranger in a story like okay I don't want to smell this person I don't want you do
47:02
little oh I smelled them you can almost ascertain their whole life experience by their order I just don't want to smell
47:08
you I'm not that extreme to it I'd rather smell a perfume than body sure of
47:14
course at least they're trying to cover something up but I I love neutral smells just you exist yeah just like you're
47:22
breathing air I don't want to smell the air that you breathe I don't want to smell what your body is putting out right
47:28
so number two not muting your background noise during meetings or podcast so if you heard things guys I'm sorry that's
47:34
my kids I can't mute my children why do people do podcasts with a dog okay I can
47:40
understand the occasional child Interruption running around on the background why are you having your dog
47:47
in the room they're barking they chain is the collar is jingling in the
47:54
background I've heard dogs dogs are a big offender y all right last one ladies and gentlemen this is the big one quite
48:01
it is number one this wasn't our list in order of necessary cuz things annoy people differently and we have all been
48:07
guilty of this and I will endeavor myself to be better at this John Hopkins
48:12
civility project from the University of Baltimore's Jacob France Institute said
48:18
that using a cell phone and any way she perform unless is an emergency and your and your notifications are on but using
48:25
a cell phone mid ation was named among the top 10 rudest behaviors by survey
48:30
respondents so you're having a conversation with somebody barring any kind of real emergency which how many
48:36
times is your life such a your life is such a dramy that you you're having a conversation with somebody and look 20
48:41
years ago we'd had conversations all the time without wondering what somebody across the country was doing right anyways I agree this is a bad habit if
48:48
you are having a conversation with somebody don't go on your phone now I there's a lot of scenarios let's say
48:54
you're at a again a sporting event you're waiting for the concer to start I understand that we're just chitchatting back and forth but you know the type of
49:00
conversation that we're talking about the conversation where that's not that where I can see how it's rude and I've
49:05
done it to my spouse and I know it's rude so I'm going to do a better job of I'm interacting right now with this
49:11
individual even it's just for a short interaction I'm going to wait till the interaction is over and then I can check my phone if I really have to but people
49:18
do find it annoying and rude so I'll leave it up to you on how much stock you want to put into that all right no I
49:25
agree no it yeah some of these are annoying and some of these are just rude yeah some are some are yeah some are
49:31
rude behaviors well which I guess very few people would find rude Behavior not annoying they kind of go hand inand but
49:37
some are more rude than others now is there one that you are the offender that
49:43
you can say that I I am an offender of this and or is there one that does bug you the most the
49:50
worst um actually no I'll read it okay not being ready to order when you get to
49:55
the counter keeping your phone's sound on gushing about new relationships
50:00
talking accessally about your diet not wiping down the machines at the gym bringing pugnet food to work using over
50:08
familiar nicknames snapping your gum posting vague status updates on social media running late starting to sentence
50:16
with no offense or I'm just being honest not letting people off an elevator before you get on or the bus leaving red
50:23
receipts on and then not responding clicking the pan standing too close to other people in the line or tailgating trying to sneak
50:31
into a line in the middle of middle instead of just going to the back somehow making every conversation about
50:36
you texting you while walking blocking the sidewalk to get a photo or some other area eating
50:43
loudly taking up both armrests sniffing loudly instead of just blowing your nose listening to music on your headphones
50:49
loud enough so other people can hear it as well or your car stereo fishing food out of your teeth stopping short while
50:55
walking leaving the toilet seat up RSVP at the last minute humming Along With a Song in public not replacing the toilet
51:02
paper taking a phone call at the gym or some sort of public area where everyone can hear the conversation going to an
51:08
Express checkout with more than 10 items talking at the movies putting something back in the wrong Shelf at the grocery
51:15
store replying all finishing a food item and putting it back in the fridge
51:20
parking too close in the parking line or double parking tapping your feet talking
51:25
ad no nauseum about how busy you are not returning your shopping cart sing the
51:30
longest song while you're trying to win a Grammy refusing to walk single file in a crowd a sidewalk not holding the door
51:36
for the person behind you starting an order with can I get instead of may I please have not standing to one side of
51:42
an escalator humble bragging putting your bag down on a seat oh we missed
51:47
that one my apologies that's right my AP his good thing we're reading this yeah so you're you're sitting on a public transit or
51:53
whatever and you're sitting down or the ferry you put the bag down next to see so nobody will sit next to you yeah it's
52:01
annoying but I don't want to be around people I'm sorry I'm an offender I do that I admit but people are brave enough
52:07
to say is somebody sitting here because it gets crowded on a ferry or something we get that on BC fairies all the time using all caps or capitalizing the first
52:14
letter of every new word wearing too much perfume or cologne not meeting your background noise and lastly using your
52:21
phone while talking to somebody Jason do you have one that you think you do that you want to change about yourself or is
52:29
there one that sticks out the most I try not to be especially for like specific appointments late I I like to truly be
52:37
on time if not early and I think that comes from a generation nowadays seem to
52:44
be less concerned about punctuality it seems I get a lot of anxiety for being
52:50
late when I hate it when I do it to myself um so when I am late that is a
52:55
real concern for myself and yes when I am relying on other
53:01
people so that I'm not late for something that even heightens my
53:06
feelings of anxiety or frustration far as like an everyday behavioral thing
53:11
being late whether I'm late because uh I didn't plan my day properly or more
53:17
specifically when somebody else makes me late that is highly annoying to me but on a more of a it doesn't really matter
53:25
life-changing situation vague booking that type of thing that's highly annoying I agree has
53:33
very little consequences to Everyday existence maybe is something that has actual
53:39
consequence I think being late whether it's myself or somebody else making me
53:46
late there's a few things on here that of course are annoying and behavioral things that are annoying but have little
53:52
very little consequence but time management being late being on time great pick so I would say being late for
53:59
you would be the one that you hate doing to others as well and then yeah people VAP booking annoys you that's good I
54:04
like it I'm going to piggyback those to say those are excellent choices but I'll pick a couple different ones just have
54:10
variety but I totally agree with your choices it could almost just depend on the event or depend on the person who's
54:15
a repeat offender of vag book uh but I totally totally agree with you so in that same VJ the one that annoys me as
54:22
well the most or the worst of these top annoying things is people talking at movies I actually sto going to movies
54:30
because I'm not guaranteed that people won't talk around me and the anxiety of that of wasting my time and money going
54:36
to the theater experience I have stopped going to move before Co I end up just
54:42
buying DVDs or Blu-Rays I was in the habit of doing that with movies that I really wanted to see I was like you know
54:48
what it kind of saves money anyways but I'll watch this on my big screen at home and save myself the anxiety of having my
54:55
Movie experience ruined because it's just happened too much remember when we saw Batman for the first time 1989 yeah
55:02
with Jack Nicholson Michael Keaton and that person that was beside me talked
55:07
the whole movie through now I don't want to get into why they did that but that
55:16
ruined oh remember they were translating the film no no no no I'll say offline I
55:24
I think I've been there I've actually been in the movie theater Jason where somebody was translating the film I've been in movie or have watched movies
55:31
where it felt like the person I was with needed the movie translated for them because their inability to follow
55:37
plot so whether I was at a movie theater or at home and that happens is highly
55:42
irritating I completely agree it's very annoying and the one that I would like to change like to to better myself where
55:49
I know I know either I can annoy other people is to talk less about myself in
55:55
general whether it's a humble inadvertently or how busy I am so I think overall I'm going to Endeavor to
56:01
talk less about myself right unless someone specifically ask hey tell me about your yeah listen more talk less
56:08
yeah I agree that's just good uh human communication skills all right Jay this
