How annoying is everything? Very.
From colleagues' obnoxious behavior to strangers' inexcusable ways, we've polled The Huffington Post newsroom to find out exactly what drives everyone crazy. Sleep better tonight knowing that your side-eye is not alone.
1. Loud chewing, or people chewing with their mouths open.
2. When people are late or make me run late because I'm waiting for them.
3. People who are chronically late. A one-off I can maybe understand, but it's incredibly rude to think your time is more valuable than the 15 to 30 minutes you're making me wait.
4. People who scuff their feet as they walk down the street, especially if they're wearing UGGs.
5. People smoking electronic cigarettes around non-smokers. Smoking is smoking.
6. People who chew gum loudly and attempt to blow bubbles in confined quarters.
7. The feel of chalk.
8. People who walk into the subway and stand right in front of the door.
9. People who don't cover their mouths when they cough.
10. People who discuss being on a diet while you're in the middle of eating something unhealthy.
11. People who say "ew" to the food on your plate.
12. People who eat food off your plate without asking first.
13. When people ask if they can have some of your food as they make a grab for it.
14. People who use redundant hashtags on Instagram, like #me #human #girl #selfie.

23. Line cutters. There are social rules you must follow.
24. People who don't know how to get through airport security efficiently. It's been 15 years. You know you have to take your goddamn shoes off and can't have liquids and get your computer out of your bag.
25. People who stand on the left side of an escalator. Right is for standing! Left for walking!
26. When you let a car cut in front of you and they don't wave to thank you.

42. Strangers on the subway who choose to listen to their music through the speakers, instead of headphones.
43. When you're running after the bus, you lock eyes with the bus driver in the rear view mirror, and they still drive straight past you.
44. When you open the door for someone and not only do they not thank you, they also glide straight past you as if people should open doors for them.
45. Mis-pluralized last names on holiday cards. Do not expect me to keep, read or even acknowledge your card if you sign it "The Green's."
46. When people call Latinos Spanish. Most of us weren't born in Spain.
47. People who groom themselves on public transportation.
48. When people repeatedly hit the elevator button, as if that'll make the elevator arrive sooner.

52. People who sing out loud out of nowhere in a crowd of people.

69. People who abbreviate things that don't need to be shortened.
70. Colleagues that tell you they ate something really bad yesterday and should really stay home. Just say you're taking a sick day. Nobody needs to hear the details.
