Why are we so annoying? Huh Huh? I mean throw us a bone and tell us, please please? Come on Dean, you're the man, you can tell us? I mean if I were annoying you I'd certainly like to know.. Come on... Please? Don't ask Rose first, just tell me. Come on, please??
Tell Me! Tell US! We need to know.

All depends on your mindset when you relate to them. You probably have to deal with thousands of them each week. Maybe each day, for all I know, what with your superbusy blogsite and all.
I guess most people are okay after you get to know them one at a time, at least a little bit. That way you know how to compensate for what you think are their shortcomings and better appreciate their trump suits. (At least it might work out that way if life were a game of Bridge.)
Anyway, what got you off on this particular wild-hair-up-your-ass gig? Computer crashed? Taxes got raised? Fresh out of Anchor Steam yellow label?
yes.
Sometimes I think it would be nice to take my husband, my critters and my potter's wheel and kiln and go hide out in the mountains, away from civilization, but of course, I still need electricity.
I dig on people. Even the annoying ones provide amusement value. Like the stage mom who, when I directed a community theatre play in February, pointed to my friend who is in a wheelchair and was seated in the handicapped seats (it was a full house), "Let's put him over here [referring to another row of seats] and get him out of the way!" I could have been annoyed by her, but mostly I just laughed in her face. Y'know what? She & I still talk occasionally. She's nice, and sometimes thoughtless. I like that in a person.
I kept telling myself all thru chemo that I couldn't die no matter how much I wanted to because I still had people I wanted to annoy, glad to see it's working ;)
Some people are annoying, but almost all drivers are! What is it about people in cars?
Amen, Pete! Yesterday some clown had the hood of his car sticking halfway out into the right lane as he was coming out of a side street... I slowed way down to avoid hitting him and squeaked by, tooting my horn as I passed. Short toot, no shaking of fingers or sundry gestures.
He rips out, passes me and gives ME the finger through his sunroof (I'm assuming that's not the factory approved function for a sunroof).
With that said, HE was annoying. But most people I will give the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.

In answer to your question, yes, they aren't.

You're annoying.
People are most certainly annoying. Unfortunately, since they have likely been annoying since civilization dawned, I doubt this will change.
Not so much annoy-ing as annoy-ed. But you weren't asking me.
yes.
Sometimes I think it would be nice to take my husband, my critters and my potter's wheel and kiln and go hide out in the mountains, away from civilization, but of course, I still need electricity.
Reminds me of the "Seinfeld" line:
"People - they're the *worst.*"

People are annoying. Persons are okay.
People are annoying. Including me.

People. I can't stand people.
There's a truly ancient Peanuts cartoon where Linus exclaims: "I love Humanity; it's people I can't stand!."
Heh.
Some people are annoying, but almost all drivers are!
What is it about people in cars?

Totally depends upon your expectations.
Rob, you should know it's not rude to cut off six people while attempting to exit from the passing lane. Honking your horn at them, now that's rude.
