It seems like everything is getting on my nerves lately. Not a good thing for a vampire, since I have an eternity to be irritated. And the thing is, I like to think I’m an easy-going, upbeat guy. I like my job, for the most part. Like my friends, like my bandmates. But don’t you just have those things, or people, or nights, where you just want to throw something because everything is so freakin’ annoying?
What irritates me, in no particular order:
Men jumping up on stage while the band is playing- Women on stage is good, but men? Come on. It’s weird, dude.
Bad drivers- I hate getting cut off, getting slowed down in the fast lane by a Sunday driver, or the opposite- being tailed by someone two inches off my bumper when I’m already going eighty.
Spam email- Does anyone really buy the Viagra alternative from a spam email? If you actually do though, please don’t tell me about it.
Britany Spears media coverage- So she’s bald and in rehab, enough already.
Childproof lighters- Here’s an idea… just don’t let your kid play with a lighter.
Sloppy drunks- I’m all for having a good time, but don’t spill your drink on my guitar. I’m serious.
Cell phone addicts- You are not so important that you need to be available 24/7. And it’s rude to ignore the person you’re with to talk on the phone to the person you’re not with. Especially if we’re on a date and the caller is the ex-boyfriend/husband. That doesn’t make me happy.
Forgetting to pay the rent- one lousy day late and the fee is fifty bucks.
One uppers- No, not drugs. I mean those people who no matter what you say, do, or own, they've done it better, got it cheaper, or paid more to own the best.
So what gets on your nerves?
