What are some of the little things you do that drive your parents absolutely insane?

*I drink way too much coffee
*At dinner I flip my retainers around in my mouth
*I'm up at all hours of the night (not my fault- I'm an Imsomniac)
*I'm always turning the heat up
*I blast my music
*A lot of my music they hate

-Laugh too loud to Conan.
-Stay up all night.
-Wont go to school yet.
-Dont pick up my room.
-Dont help around the house.

I'm quite convinced that everything I do (or could do) would annoy my parents.

My parents are convinced that everything I do, I do to annoy them.

Although I am a mature adult I drive my Mom crazy because I don't share her Republican ideas! Funny thing is that when she was my age she was a staunch Democrat!

But the older she gets the more conservative she gets! I hope I NEVER get THAT old!

Other than that she is the greatest and most devoted Mom that I could ever wish for! Love her!

The little things, little things, they always hang around. The little things, little things, they try to bring me down. The little things, little things, they just won't go away! The little things, little things, made me who I am today! Go! Ya wanna hate me now, but I won't stop now...cos I can' stop now...nah nah nah nah...

* I refuse to wear make-up
* I hardly ever leave the house and when I do go out I always go to bars
* I drink all the time

Being a Mom of two adult children myself that would drive me insane too!

But I have to say that my son does like The Beatles and plays Beatles on his guitar! Yay!

I'm no doctor, but I'd say those two things are connected with eachother.

Amazingly, they aren't.

I gave up coffee for a month- I was still up all night. I have an idea of why I don't sleep.

And, looks like I've forgotten some-

*I spend way too much time on the internet
*I don't do anything around the house ^^ see above
*I eat the majority of 4/7 days of the week
*Like Crystal mentioned, I laugh too loud at the late night shows
*The sometimes hate the way I dress...don't ask why. I don't know.
*I swear. It drives my mother nuts.

I'm convinced my parents hate me so it doesn't exactly matter anyway

Playing with my eyebrows
Taking too big bites when eating
Getting on the floor with the dog (All I just do is scratch and pet her, nothing wrong with that, is it?)
Forgetting to do what I'm told (emptying the dishwasher, putting my dirty clothes down the laundry chute, feeding the dog, etc.)

-Typing on the computer.
-Chewing gum.
-Not doing anything.
-Telling them to bug off when they ask me stupid-a** questions.
-Not being perfectly cheerful 24/7.
-Refusing to eat vegetables.
-Asking them if I can do something and not explaining why.

What it comes down to is, my existing drives them crazy. The feeling is mutual, however.
