You Irk Me Things That Irk or Annoy Us

This is again inspired by my dad. When you are sitting in a room silently or on the train and want to just keep to yourself and someone keeps clearing their throat you wonder what is wrong with them. Do they have a medical condition and need to clear their throat every 30 seconds? If you do then I am sorry but if you do not have anything medically wrong that is causing you to clear your throat then drink some water, suck a piece of candy or do something to get the tickle out of your throat. I guess I am one to talk though but I actually have something medically wrong that is causing me to cough every few minutes but if I could control it by drinking or doing something I would.


The throat clearing sound sometimes gets so annoying that I would like to get up and give them a piece of … candy. No I was not going to say piece of my mind. I just wish they would realize that if someone is trying to concentrate on something then the throat clearing is very distracting. If you have a habit of continually clearing your throat then try to stop. You may be irritating your throat more by clearing it. Try to be courteous of people when they are working on something and control the clearing.
