Pop Quiz!

Ok - it's not really a TRUE quiz - but there is a connection between the following items....see if YOU can figure out what it is...

 - Dr. Oz's arms and too tight scrubs
 - Drivers who pull out in front of you then drive slowly - or any other driving incompetence. 
 - Food wrapper/lids etc. on kitchen counters
 - Rude people
 - People who pee on the toilet seat and don't wipe it up
 - Grammatical errors
 - Cigarette smoke
 - People who talk in 3rd person
 - Small talk
 - Stupid commercials
 -  Household Clutter
 - Being forgotten or ignored on birthdays and holidays
 - Insomnia
 - People who misuse handicapped parking spaces and bathroom facilities
 - Walmart products and employees
 - Nepotism
 - Lousy restaurant service and/or food
 - The end of summer
 - Unfulfilled promises
 - Coffee breath
 - Traffic jams

Ok - go!  If you can't guess the true connection, then use your imagination and make something up.  I may give a prize for the most original!  ;)

  1. well, I'm guessing "what is things that are annoying" for $200, Alec. but that's probably way too obvious. Coffee breath? And these things are of varying annoyance right?

  3. I'm feeling the list except for Dr. Oz ... I seldom see him on TV but now feel I need to revisit his arms and scrubs for analysis.

  5. There are actually quite a few more I just didn't want to look too much like a complete whiner. Or an imcomplete one!

  6. Carrie - that is correct - toilet paper rolls remain empty even into empty nest.
    Dr. Oz is the health nut on many shows...I think he started on Oprah but now has his own talk show. He also has the realage.com website for all the latest and greatest (?) suggestions for seeming younger than we are... and apparently he thinks that wearing his scrubs a size or two too small does that for him....so that his ugly furry arms are exposed. I am also bothered by his unnaturally high and misshapen eyebrows. :)
