I can tell you now

Every day there’s an aspect of life that finds its way to annoy me. That topic is people’s personality.

The personality of a human being defines the quality’s that make up for that character. The average humans personality comes with a variety set of behaviors, Happy, sad, arrogant, sarcasm, anger, confusion, guilt, etc. The three that get at me the most is Sarcasm, anger and arrogance, and I can tell you why.

Sarcasm – In the English language people indicate the act of sarcasm by one speaking slower and in a more high pitched voice, it can be used in a certain manor where you’re trying to taunt someone or in the sense of irony. It can also be quite bitter and sharp. An example of the use of sarcasm would be, “I’m really good at 100 meter races” then someone reply’s saying “sure you are” that is an act of sarcasm. It can make the victim  feel stupid and is a quick way to shut down someone when they’re talking, as I’ve experienced before. After finally finishing a piece of art work I had done in lesson, the teacher came over and said “my work is very good”, to which i was very proud of. My friends who had seen the teacher congratulate me had then started to mock me, saying how “really really good it was”, with a sarcastic tone. After that it made me feel like the work I done was worthless and that’s why I truly don’t like the act of sarcasm because when you’re trying to state a fact or trying to have a serious conversation or hard work then sarcasm can get in the way of your points and confidence, and make you feel like your in-control of what you’re saying and doing, which can then move on to anger, which is the next topic that tends to annoy me as well.

Anger – It’s the emotion that humans feel strongly about and occurs when someone feels annoyed to the extent, displeasure or hostility. An example of when people tend to get angry would be when if someone was to be hitting you for no reason then you’ll become angry, but if they continue to the point where your on the brink of getting more angry you’ll become to rage, and that’s when your in violent uncontrollable anger. This irritates me because people that are angry won’t listen or want to communicate properly with you so there’s not much way to help them, and if they’re furious then they’ll be making insensible decisions which can lead on to bigger things from what was once just a little thing and not major. The last of the three major factors that annoy me in modern life is people that are arrogant towards things.

Arrogance – People with arrogant attitudes are the type of people that are over confident, they feel like they’re the best of the best. If you’re surrounded by people that are like this then you’ll know how annoying it can become. They can make you feel like your not as good as them as if you are below there standards and you’ll never be able to reach their level. It frustrates me when people act like this because most people that are cocky towards something are regularly not good at it themselves, it just makes me think why are they talking? honestly why are they? sometimes I think they’re talking for no point, only just so they can get on your nerves and to make people feel down on themselves.

    This is an interesting interpretation of the task. I’d recommend that you replace the word ‘cocky’ with the word ‘arrogant’ as this is a more appropriate level of formality.

    There are some minor spelling errors (like the use of the wrong there/their/they’re) that you will be able to fix quite quickly.

    I would encourage you to make some references (maybe one per paragraph) to real-life experiences that explain your point. Things that have actually happened to you.
