    Being repeatedly kicked in the middle of the night by your wife is annoying too.

    "Honey. Honey! HONEY!!! Stop kicking me."

    "I wasn't kicking you, I was sleeping."

    "Well you were kicking me in your sleep then."

    "No I wasn't..."

    "Whatever. Goodnight."

    few minutes pass.....

    "Honey. HONEY!"

    Having your boss wake you in the middle of a perfectly good nap is kinda annoying, also :)

    Be overly-nice to someone who's mad at you. Like no matter how mad they get or what they say reply with the cheesiest, "GLEE NAZI" response. That gets them every time.

    Of course, be prepared to duck when you push them over the edge and the bullets start to fly.

    Those teachers that just won't let you sleep. What's wrong with them? Weren't they ever in highschool?! It really ........es me off.

    The best way to annoy them would probably involve a computer...though I'm not sure the specifics.

    I am!

    You bash them (repeatedly) over the head w/the CPU. Or if you're in any way masochistic, w/the keyboard

    Bah! That's for women. REAL men use the monitor

    You get a large sense of calm as the sound of shattering glass and twisting metal mesh together

    Hmm...I can think of a few times where I've wanted to pick up my scanner and take a few swipes at someone's face for not knowing how to do anything with the computer..."Ken?! What's this 'start' thingamabob do? What's this whole 'reformat' thing? why did the computer just explode?"

    heh, and another thing that gets me is when my mom rushes into my room with the newspaper and reads me the latest inflated computer headline: "KEN!!! This says that a new virus known as the code red worm could hurt us!! Go fix the computer!!" "Mom, I already knew about that..." "No way! It's just in the newspaer today! There's no way you could've known! Stop lying! Fix it!!!"


    URGH!

    ::hoping to be annoyed while working::

    O hold on. We have flat screens at work. Wonder what that'll be like.....

    Do you remember Odd-Job from the Bond films? That's how to handle annoyances with a flat screen :)

    What about Random Task from Austin Powers? I could get used to throwing shoes at people.

    I dunno. If you're gonna take something from Austin Powers, I have to go with the nut-punching midget ;)

    ROTFL!!! Ken! Stop it! LMAO!!! You're killing me here. I always though it was only my parental unit that did that. They abosultly died when i moved out. I think they feared to even turn the darn thing on for fear they'd break it and I wasn't around o fix it again.

    One sure way to annoy me (as someone already suggested) is to drive really slowly in front of me. I should actually win awards for coming the closest ever to nuclear fusion between two bumpers.

    Want to really annoy, me? Try Messaging me on AIM fourteen thousand times a day while i'm trying to get some work done. That'll do it... Or better yet, gang up and get, like, 15 people to all do it all day long so that i cant get 3 lines of code down before that bloody window pops up and..... arggggg!!!!! *deep breath* *deap breath* *deap breath*

    "Well I thought I'd reinstall windows ME...."

    :: tightning in my chest as I know this coversation doenst sound too good ::

    "Well.............its not easy you shouldnt try to do that....."

    "Too late...I went to dos and typed 'format C:'.......now the hard drive wont boot"

    :: sigh ::

    Call every plumber, electrician, pizza place, carpet cleaners, etc.. in the phone book and send them all to your enemy's house at the same time. Sit back and watch the traffic jam and insuing chaos.

    Well you could just put up your away message and check those 2 little checkboxes that say "Hide window" and "Disable sounds" - works quite well.
