Then i'm saying to myself, look i can be web surfing instead of holding the phone listening to you breath. Or sometimes somebody may call and they know they are tired but still calls and falling asleep. Then i usually say, what the hell did you call me for if you was tired?

I hate when people talk on the phone for hours and hours about stupid stuff. I put the phone down

Really. And when they live 10 minutes messages on your awnsering machine

Learn to cut it short with a simple phrase like, "Is that all?" or "Are you done?" Works like a charm for me. However, if you've tried every trick in the book, I suggest changing your number or...getting new friends.

People do that all the time. I'd like to punch them, please.

My brother does that! After a few Q/A he runs out of what to say and just sits there with nothing else to say but 'OMG', 'Pues si', 'What's new' ,it just makes me

. I tell him that my children need me for something and that I gotta go. Even when he comes to visit is the same thin'; he just likes to aggravate the heck out of my daughters when they don't want to be messed with

I hate that! And it's usually the most annoying people too, like, my sister. My family finally got caller id so I can decide whether to pick up the phone or tell my mom to say I'm in the shower.

i cannot stand having a one-on-one general conversation with anyone other than my brother.

Now THAT, I hate. A have a few aunts who do that. I usually sit there and eat dinner or something while listening to them. God knows, I'm done eating by the time they're through

Can't do that on my answering machine, it cuts people off if they talk too long
