This is so annoying by: Sarah Stumpf

Have you ever been annoyed by something or somebody so much that you just want to kill whatever is causing you to loose your head?  Be it a mosquito or simply someone who keeps annoying you.  But what is an annoyance exactly?  Is it something unpleasant?  A diluted rage perhaps?  Overtones of disgust?  Or simply a dislike?  Since there is no real definition of annoyance it is simply all of these things.  For example, I think that all teenagers can agree with me that parents can be annoying sometimes.  I mean I love my parents but sometimes they really annoy me. 


Firstly, This can be either parents but for me it is mostly my Mom.  She always asks me to do twenty million different things at the same time and asks me why I am not done already.  Seriously Mom?! Jeez, I can't teleport myself up and down the stairs and do everything in twenty seconds! I'd love to but that's not how it is.  Sometimes she can ask me the same question: "Are you done yet?" millions of times in the opening of three minutes and all I want to say is: "No Mom, I am still doing the first of the many things you asked me; I am still doing my room."


Secondly when I ask my parents something and they answer: "No." And then I ask why and they have no good, valid reason but this comes out a lot: "Because I said so."  Or they say the ever so famous: "Because you're in my house and until you go and make your own life and live somewhere else you will follow my rules."   When actually they say that because they have no other arguments. Like if you tell me: "No." I'd like to at least have the smallest explanation possible. I am not asking you to touch your head and jump like a frog and dribble a basketball at the same time- I am only asking for an explanation.

 And lastly, I don't know if I am the only one, but my parents do this: they always blame everything on electronics.  For example, let's say I have a headache.  For them, the only reason possible is because I am too much on my phone when actually that day I forgot my phone at home and didn't even go on it yet.  Or if I haven't finished my homework yet and its been one hour and they'll be like: "Oh, Sarah, it's because you're always on Facebook on your computer",  when I actually haven't checked my messages for one week. God, it annoys me so much! I am sure that the list could go on and on but those are the main ones.  

After all, an annoyance can be something so little but can still poke some nerves.  What about you?  What are things that annoy you?
