    Step into the confessional . . . what do you do that annoys others?

    I am temporarily boarding with a platonic friend right now, using his spare bedroom until I move to Charleston, Illinois in late July.

    Anyway, my friend prefers washing all dishes by filling up the sink with soap and hot water. But whenever I have only very few dishes to wash, and they're not extremely dirty, I wash them under warm, running water. If I have more dishes to do, and they're greasy or something, then I wash them the way my friend prefers.

    That annoys him for some reason, even though I get the dishes clean.

      Hey, you know none of my friends or family has pointed this out, but sometimes I think I might talk loudly on the phone too.

        i tend to do it at bad times, and my freidns are quick to point it out

        we'll just be sitting in a cafeteria, and a girl will walk by, and i'll say "Ryan, is that that girl you f'ed last week?" a bit louder than i should have

        that one actually turned into a running joke by my friend Deep (he's indian, that IS his name). He will walk up to a friend, point to a girl, and as loudly as possible, say "HERRRRRR JOE? THATS THE ONE?" or stuff like that.

        funny kid, that jackass.

          I am sorry, but the "fill the sink" ,ethod makes no sense to me? will not all the water be filled with scummy soap? It saves water, fine, but how effective is it?

          Even when I have a huge amount of dishes to clean, I always do it under running water.

              And GePap, if you want to ask my friend, I can give you his e-mail address.

              And by the way -- you cannot step into the confessional and leave without confessing.

                Talk to much, talk to loudly, especially when I've had to much to drink.

                    I am messy. That is enough to annoy several people.

                      Washing an hygeine habits are incredibly personal things.

                      Personally I'm with your flat mate on this one. Soap will kill bugs, hot water just encourages the little devils.

                      As my my annoying habits - my posts on Poly often get up people's noses.

                      My long hair drives many up the wall.

                      My unreasonably reasonable attitude has driven many to aboslute fury.

                      And my habit of picking up recently dropped litter and handing it back to the guilty party often leads to violence. I'm trying to stop that one - but it's a case of cause and effect.

                            People just don't like that popping sound, for some reason.
