I have one who is a knuckle cracker and a nail biter. If I removed both his hands he'd no longer be able to drum on any available flat surface with his fingers. Thank god he doesn't jingle his change in his pocket but that's probably because he's skint.

They stuck the temp in work right by me, which is annoying as it is because I have to listen to the same, poorly articulated sentence she spouts on the phone all day; but every morning there's the 'crack, crack, crack' ritual she goes through as well; repeated once an hour. It used to be so quiet by my desk :( But if she was here, she'd probably complain about the bloke next door farting all the time:o |

First born is a knuckle cracker. She also twists her back and cracks her spine, makes me want to vomit. She has acrylic nails and thinks it's cool to tap them on anything. She's just moved out of home which is a good thing as I now don't feel the need to end her life.

Re: Pet Peeves?
My joints are pretty noisy. Just bending them after they have been in a certain position for a while will let out a loud crack. My neck is the worst, I just twist it sideways and it sounds like it is snapping in half.

Then don't know what to say when you say "No" At the grocery store the checkout clerks are in the habbit of asking things like "any ice or stamps today". But its when i pop in for a single item like a loaf of bread and they ask "would you like any help out with that today" I really want to reply with a "yes" :) |

Yep that would be another one.

Usually, by the time you've reached the checkout you've given up on it anyway. It's not like they are going to pause you checking out to go find the bloody thing.
