Hazy, Hot and Cranky
This heat is killing me! Long Island has been sustaining a heat wave for the past couple of days. It is brutal outside. The air is so thick and hot it’s almost as if you could slice it. My sweat mustache is in overdrive and my general demeanor is, well, cranky. When I am cranky, I tend to let things bother me more than usual.
It is so hot today that I turned down an invitation to my favorite beach club and I have no interest in even going in our own pool. That’s hot! Feeling this way, I thought it might be fun for me to jot down the top ten things that “Bother the Heck Out of Me.” Here you are:
Ten Things that Bother the Heck Out of Me:
- Finding dirty dishes in the sink when the dishwasher is literally six inches away.
- When I am entering a highway and the jerk behind me decides to gun it and cut me off.
- People who allow a door to close in your face when you are right behind them. Really?
- When stores don’t remove the security tag attached to your clothes and you don’t notice until you are home.
- When people drop the “F” bomb in casual conversation.
- When people wear clothing that flaunts profanity. Why?
- When folks take up two parking spots.
- When a driver stops in the middle of the road to drop someone off hence, stopping all traffic instead of simply pulling to the curb.
- When my flip-flop loosens and it’s hard to even keep it on my foot as I walk.
- Mosquitos. (No explanation necessary.)
What bothers you? Does the heat make you cranky? Please share your issues in a comment below.

I’m guilty of the 1st two items listed (sorry)!! Will try to do better. Totally agree with the last one since I do not go outside at night where mosquitoes are because they love my body

It bothers me when people throw trash out their car windows as they drive. The nerve!

All the above bother me! Also when you hold the door and they don’t say thank you
Loretta | 31st Jul 19
Yes, such bad manners!

1. Drivers who do not have E-ZPass, are in the EZ-sPass toll lane, and decide to cut everyone off to the Pay Cash lane at the last minute.
2. People who crack their gum.
3. People on the train that will not move their bags to let you sit.

All valid annoyances Ralph. The train “bag” people are the worst!

When people stand too close behind you in line!
