On Jeopardy when contestants keep calling Alex by name. First of all, nobody talks like that and says the person's name they're talking to in a sentence. Second of all, you are not his friend, quit trying to act like you know the guy.

It's actually a fun metagame picking out the annoying attributes of the Jeopardy contestants while we watch, heh.

When you get continuous texts from the same person. Said person could simply complete their thoughts and hit send instead of....
"Hi" (send)
"How" (send)
"Are you" (send)
"Doing" (send)
"?" (Send)

It's annoying when people do that in IMs too.

I haven't IM'd in YEARS. I hardly even get on the computer anymore, but I used to spend 95% of my free time on it. It's funny, the older I've gotten, the more of a life I've gotten.
