We all know a few people that can just get on our nerves, they are high maintenance, and from time to time can just stress you out. What about those on the internet, those you don't know, who are complete idiots in your opinion, and shouldn't even be allowed to communicate with other humans?
Some of these people are mean as well, manipulative, and even down right evil and love to argue, and just won't let anything you say go without some sort of nasty reply. They'll try and play on your emotions and make it seem like it's all your fault and play on your guilt for it. Their generally very good at concealing their evil intentions as well, by hiding behind the illusion of not really interested or caring just to exploit your sympathies. Normally it's best to confront these people right away, let them know what they are doing is manipulative, you don't appreciate it and try to end the conversation by moving on to an unrelated issue that would defuse the previous conversation.
This is clearly someone not being able to maintain or control their thoughts and their fingers aren't going where their brain is telling them. That would be a pretty common problem many of us have, we'll be typing and look back and realize half the words we were thinking about didn't get put down. But, if you look back and fix them, then you at least had the conscious thought to do so and won't annoy the person trying to read and understand your problem.
Experts are every where on the internet, these people not only have a opinion for everything, but they are an expert at no matter what it is you are talking about. They also have the tendency to write in a away that sounds as if they looked up every word they are going to use in the thesaurus, found the most complicated alternative and then added a link so you could see an example of what they are saying. If you need to link wiki or Webster to your message, consider being a little more respectful of us illiterates.
Most of us don't think we're jerks, but occasionally, we all have our annoying tendencies, it's just human nature. The key is knowing how much we are annoying other people fixing it, and passing that information along to those who are annoying us. We have to be careful how we pass along this information though, we don't want to come off sounding like an arrogant ass or as I like to call it the "accidental asshole" syndrome. We all know these people to, critiquing everything we do and giving their opinion of how to fix it, without realizing they are doing it.
If you're really dedicated to becoming better at not annoying people, there are a lot of surefire strategies you can use to make sure you improve all those little idiosyncrasies that bother people, making everyone (including yourself) much less tormented.
