Perhaps many can agree that among some of the most annoying things are traffic, inflation, Karens, slow walkers, and drivers who don't move right away when the traffic light turns green. But that might be just the ADHD symptoms kicking in. Anyhow, lucky are those who don't get bothered by the many annoying things people do. Because for the rest of us mortals, there are just way too many annoying things about people that get under our skin.
Previously, we’ve dedicated numerous posts listing the many things that annoy people. However, it's not always the various actions and situations that get on people's nerves. While there are many things annoying people do, there are nonetheless annoying things they say that are particularly characteristic of nuisances.
Recently, a user in the Ask Reddit community asked fellow Redditors, "Which sentence is only used by annoying people?" And needless to say, the netizens had plenty of annoying statements to share. Apparently, according to Redditors, nuisances have several phrases and annoying comments in their vocabulary that they use on a daily basis.
Below, we've compiled a list of phrases and statements made by people who are 'annoying,' according to Reddit users. Do you agree with any of these? If you do, upvote the ones you approve of and put them higher on the list! Also, do you know of any more phrases often utilized by annoying people? Let us know! P.S. Keep in mind that we are not trying to insult or offend anyone; this is for entertainment purposes only. Hey, we can all be annoying sometimes!

Sonja 2 years ago
Because this is not about lying. This is using the excuse of 'saying the truth' for stating rude opinions no one asked for. Example: what do you think about this jacket? Truth: I don't think it's flattering on you and it looks a bit tight. Maybe try a bigger size? Rude: you're too fat to wear that. You should accept that you're just not pretty. The last one is not an objective truth because everyone sees that different. One person's fat is another person's curvy. That makes it and opinion that was not what was asked for. It's just an excuse to make rude comments and put others down. And even worse when blurting out opinions without even asked to do so.

Alpha males have a whole new definition now. It’s not always perceived as a positive trait. The toxic alpha leader trait is a tyrant. He orders people around. In a romantic relationship, instead of being protective, they are severe or unfair toward their female partners. He bullies and forces his opinions on her.

Just because I don't chit chat all the time doesn't mean I'm lacking. So she gets the very cold but professional shoulder. I do chit chat with the person she decided to sit next to.

I only don't have a filter around my best friend and my partner. They're similar that way so they understand and it works out.I filter myself around everyone else. Like to an extreme. To be clear, I have mental health issues. Like a lot of them. So being myself around people is.....not safe in my mind. I wouldn't say I'm tactless, more like honest and teasing in a way most people would probably not like. Like for example, if my bestie and me went dress shopping and she asks my opinion on a dress she's trying on, I'm not going to say it looks good on her if it doesn't. But I'm not going to leave it at that, I'm going to actually give advice like "I don't think that dress matches your hair that well, but maybe we can find it in a different color?" Or something like that.

Hahaha. So, I had an extended warranty which the company cancelled because I missed one oil change by 2 days because we were out of town. They didn't bother cancelling it until we need a very expensive replacement part. One week later, one of these telemarketers calls with this BS. I let them have it. Demanded to talk to their manager, etc. because if I still had a warranty then I wanted my car repaired for free like it says in the paperwork. After a few moments they screamed at me 'Wrong number' and hung up. I haven't been called since.

I look forward to these calls. I do the "elderly widow" thing (which I actually am) and talk as fast as I can, ignoring any attempts at being interrupted, blathering on about 'what will I do' etc, etc, until I get tired of the whole thing and the next time I'm asked for year, make, and model of my car I answer quite honestly '70 Chevy Nova. Then they usually hang up.

Child will ask for 'please, just one more.' I've drawn the line, and if I say yes now, the negotiations continue, so I say no. Any kid worth his salt wants to know why 5 M&M's were okay, but 6 is too many. It's like 4 calories. And the truth is, I don't have a good reason. That's just where I arbitrarily drew the line. But I can't really explain that to my irrational kid who will keep eating M&M's until they puke a chocolate rainbow. So I say it, even though I swore I never would. "Because I said so." "Because I'm the dad." Because I can't reason with you about nutrition, limits, etc. One day, yes, but you aren't there yet.

Hardly. The concept of the Devil's Advocate is a bit more serious. Established by the Catholic Church to act as an opponent during the canonization process, the devil's advocate had to forfeit his entire fortune, everything he (and it was always a male) owned, if he lost the case. That gave them a bit of a motivation to do their very best (and you tried damn hard not to be selected for that role), as opposed to this frivolous, throw-away comment by someone who thinks he's so smart, such a great debater.

There is nothing at all wrong with our elders sharing their experiences with us. In fact, a DIY chain in the UK purposely employs older people because of their lived experience. Instead of writing older people off, maybe we should encourage them to share that experience and learn from them. After all, some of them are responsible for inventing practically everything we own. So maybe grandpa was trying to say 'Back in my day, we all sat down in a big room with a nice cup of tea and put together an air filter from spare parts we had lying around. This ensured that Jim Lovell and the crew of Apollo 13 had enough breathable oxygen to slingshot around the moon and back to earth safely.' If you zoned out at 'cup of tea' you would have missed the best bit. We have nothing to lose by tuning in to our elders and everything to gain. Remember that if grandpa is in a retirement home, you might be the only person he speaks to all week. He values that time. Maybe you should too.

OOOHHH! I KNOW ONE! Where was it.. ah, yes,, "I am making 100 US dollars an hour working from home. I never imagined that it was honest to goodness yet my closest companion is earning $16,000 a month by working on a laptop, that was truly astounding for me, she prescribed for me to attempt it simply. Everybody must try this job now by just using this website.. Www.Payathome7.Com"

"It is what it is" freaking infuriates me. It's like a meaningless tautology.

Yes, Eris, yes! It's hard enough to hear that after routine griping. [Me] "I wanted that job, thought I had a shot, and they didn't even do that courtesy call to say they hired someone else." [Audience of none] "It is what it is." It's even harsher when said after one bares one's soul hoping for, dunno, a suggestion? An objective-ISH opinion? Maybe even -- Why not? -- sympathy? [Me, in a rare display of vulnerability] "I'm more discouraged / angry / sad / depressed than I've ever been..." OR "I don't see a way out of this..." OR "Am I crazy?" [Audience of none] "It is what it is." People who spout that faux-philosophical observation must not realize how dismissive it sounds. So dismissive it borders on cruelty.

Anyone who mentions Jesus in a way that suggests they just had coffee with him that morning.
