What do you do that drives others crazy?

I am reading The Five Principals of a Successful Life (see link). It is very good & full of so much wisdom. One relation, from Tucker Carlson, made me think of the one habit (I swear, it is the only one) that I have that Jeff hates.

Tucker says that when he flies across country he talks to the people in the seat next to him and he always lands having learned something new about people & life.

I am the same way. I LOVE to hear other people's stories. I want to know where they are going and why. Why do they live where they live, how did they get there. I like to hear about their families and their stories in general. I love to talk to cab drivers, etc. I hate parties but I love one on ones. That is why I think that older people love me. Because I actually want to hear their stories.

One time after a two hour plane flight Jeff & I were taking the cab home & I started to talk to the cab driver & Jeff told me to stop talking. Hmmmm...but I did. He hates it.

When Jill & I went on our road trip, at our hotel in Miami, there was a large porch looking out to the ocean and everyone gathered at the tables to have their breakfast. We each talked to a different individual who shared the table with us. Her guy was here on a trip from the Turks & Caicos. He was here to visit his family. He talked about the Islands and his business. I think Jill enjoyed him. My guy was here from a Pakistan and he was here to buy computers and have them shipped back to his country. He had been traveling all over the world for the last year & one half buying up used computers. He was going to New York from Miami. I immediately made him into a terrorist! That sounded exiting, he was probably legit, but who knows.

It has been my dream since I was like 30 to just say what I please. When I see a pretty woman or a hot guy I like to tell them that they are good looking, or they smell good. I like compliments, I like giving compliments. If people are rude, I say something, even if not to their face I say it so they hear me. This makes my family a little squirrely but I think people should be made aware of their being assholes. Even me if I am one.

Anyway, what do you do that your loved ones or others hate? I do a lot of other stuff that I am sure drives everyone insane, but at least with this trait I learn something about other people & I feel good after talking to them. Plus a lot of times I learn about life in other countries that I may never visit.
