I like it when people write "(ha ha)" after jokes in letters, or begin letters with "Dear x, How are you? I am fine." I might just like these because my younger brother uses them in every letter.

& having recently quit smoking, I live for 2nd hand smoke...invading the personal space of smokers on the street and sighing contentedly.

WHenever I write "Dear x, how are you? I am fine." I always follow it with "Not that you asked or cared".

A friend of mine loves it when I talk to her on the phone while eating at the same time. In fact, she encourages it.

As for me--I sort of like a smell of slight body odor. A few people I know went a little too far.

I doubt anyone would find it irritating but I LOVE it when someone is reading something funny on the bus or subway and starts to laugh uncontrollably, and then tries to stifle it and turns beet red. It only happened once but I saw a very serious-looking student with serious leftist badges practically fall off her seat reading PG Wodehouse one day. I would have married her right there on the spot, the streetcar conductor conducting a tasteful nondenominational ceremony and our fellow passengers tossing rice.

I like the spring in my bed that keeps stabbing me. I don't know why, you should see the scratch on my hip from it.

I should be irritated that Fritz quit smoking successfully AND I DIDN'T. Fucker. But I'm not.

Also, I think it's funny when people make noises of satisfaction when eating. Or taking a piss. That sort of thing. It's so corny, I like it.

I do not stifle my laughs. Today on the bus i was reading Germaine Greer and laughed out loud so hard that i fell off my seat.

i like mould. seriously.

i considered following that sentence with "it grows on you", but i thought that might be a minor irritant that really got someones goat.

I like it when friend say "shut up" to each other and i like it when my friends bite me.

Hearing neighbours have domestic fights, I could lie in bed and listen to that all night. Even better if the police come. I don't even bother to look out the window, I just like listening.

I want to be rainy.

I like it when I wake up really late for work by accident. You know as soon as you wake up you don't feel tired enough for it to be 7.00 or something. No point being irritated, just go in for your two hours.

I like getting people to be naughty.
