Post a mild annoyance
When you're rolling up a tortilla, and it rips to a point where structural integrity is fatally compromised.

2. Ooh that's a good one
One would think that long practice would preclude this injury, but it's just not so. :cry:

7. It's not "different than". It's "different from".
That is all. Thanks for the opportunity.

8. Same as yours but with hamburgers and buns instead.
Never in my lifetime will I have a hamburger that doesn't fall out of the bun. And I don't know why solving that problem is so impossible. You mean to tell me some kind of "pocket bun" can't be invented? Really? I mean, I know math and science skills are lacking lately, but...really? Come on people.

9. When you leave the house in a hurry to get to the bank...
Only to realize you left the deposit slip and checks on the table. :(

13. people who dig into a watermelon instead of cutting a slice
the selfish, inconsiderate people who scoop out the best part of the watermelon, then nobody else wants to eat it after they mutilated it.

14. Thoughtless animals who treat a new DU'er unkindly, shut
them down and get their posts deleted even though there were no cuss words or even outright insults. Rude, rude.

17. non-synced or overly long traffic lights
I;m not sure what annoys me more--waiting almost three minutes for a light to change or getting a green light just as the one 100 yds in front of me turns red. I hate both.

18. People who pronounce the word literally as
lit-TRA-ly instead of lit-ER-A-ly. As if leaving out a syllable makes you sound smarter.

20. My biggest fear
is dying from thousands of paper cuts or tiny bites. The most I have ever been disturbed in a movie was watching the jerk get nibbled to death by the tiny dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park: The Lost World". The other is the horrible paper cut death scene from "Cast a Deadly Spell."

24. How about when you're making a sammich...
...and instead of squirting a nice schmear of mustard on your bread you get the gross mustard-water that soaks in and makes your bread soggy. I'm mildly annoyed by that. :|
