What’s been irritating you lately? As much as we try to let things go so we’re not bothered by them, it’s not always easy to do. What gets under one person’s skin may never even begin to bother someone else, but a new survey finds there are some common things that upset many of us.
The new poll asks 2-thousand American adults about what’s been annoying them the most in the last few months. It turns out politicians are near the top of the list, but there’s actually one thing that people find even more annoying … outrageous prices at the grocery store. Nearly half (47%) of respondents say this is the biggest annoyance in their lives recently.
