Things I do that I find offensive in others ...

    Is there anything that you do and don't think is bad but think it's terrible when other people do it?

    For example, sometimes I spit. No big deal just clearing my throat.
    But when I see other people spit it seems kind of gross and rude.


    Or maybe I gamble a little on a rare tripe to the casino or the race track. No big thing just a fun day/night with some money I can afford to lose surrounded by degenerates losing the rent money.

    Talk trash on online message boards.

    I find bad grammar and misspellings offensive.

    I write a blog about assfucking my downstairs neighbor. But it's unseemly when others write about their assfucking experiences.

    Probably about 75 percent of my driving habits.

    And good point on the casino, Ace. I like to go to the casino occasionally (and they mainly involve out-of-town trips), but while I'm gambling, I see people playing those machines like it's their daily fix. It doesn't really offend me, per se, just makes me feel a little sorry for them, and make me constantly remind myself, "That's not gonna be me! That's not gonna be me!"

    I fart in the press box sometimes.

    Fire off one-liners on a message board.

    (Too soon?)

    I sneeze more than the average person (at least one set of 3-4 per day), but find it incredibly annoying when others do it. I wouldn't say I'm offended, but just kind of annoyed.

    I have absolutely no room to talk though.

    WOW! Where did that come from? Have you and your therapist explored this area...?

    I can't stand hypocrites. I'm OK with being one, but I hate it when other people are.

    Blow huge bubbles and pop the gum loudly.

    Somebody got me about 10 packs of Big League Chew for Christmas and I did this for two football weekends.

    This.

    I pop my gum all the time, but hate when someone else does it. That and smacking their lips when they're chewing gum or eating something.
