We went to an old house tour this morning, and while everyone was well mannered, there were a few people who exhibited some really annoying behavior. So, next time you’re on a house tour, try this Top 5 list of ways to annoy people if your feeling bored!
5. Stand exactly in the middle of a doorway. Not because the room is too crowded, your wife is the only one in there, but just stand there and take a good, long look.
4. Stand one foot in front of the poster resting on the floor which explains the items in the room. This position prevents any one from reading the poster. Proceed to have a conference with your friends about which room you are going to next.
3. Walk right in front of someone taking a picture.
2. Even though the tour guides explicitly told you to use the large stairway for going up and the smaller one for going down, go ahead and use those smaller ones to go against the flow. Be sure to bring a couple of friends.
1. In general, just be oblivious to everyone around you. Try to get in the way.
Okay, I feel better.
No wait… one more. We are, yet again, under a tornado watch. At least it’s not a warning. But, man, am I tired of rain.
Okay, now I’m done….
Tanyetta,
Thanks for stopping by!
Katie,
Those are definitely annoying too!
Jocelyn,
I wonder if people just don’t care that they are being rude…
The house is in the middle of nowhere (like everything else around here!). The tour was a fundraiser to finance the restoration. It was completely empty. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks ago it was vandalized and they broke every window in the house.
very true!
You forgot about the guy that talks really loud over the tour guide and the lady with the really loud laugh.. When we went on a house tour there was a lady with kids who let them run all over and play with the peoples’ stuff. That would drive me insane. :)
That is so true about some people- sometimes I think they do it on purpose to annoy others!
We have a storm coming tonight too, so I made sure I did my needed errands this morning. :)
THAT family,
You cracked me up!
I have been sort of a lurker for a few weeks on your blog, and then I finally posted a comment. I really enjoy it!
Thanks for visiting us!
Thanks for visiting me the other day. It’s nice to meet you and I enjoyed your post. I’m sorry if I annoyed you. I promise not to walk in front of you take a picture again! kidding. Those are some of my pet peeves too.
VERY funny! And sadly, so true!
Where was the house tour?
Hey at least you don’t have to hunker down in the crawl space anymore!
