Nag Nag Nag- at all possible times
Repeat the same joke/ story/ incident many times in various settings- make the tale extremely long drawn, explore irrelevant angles, talk in a very slow speed and simply rip the topic apart- all the while not letting the other person manage a word in between
Eavesdrop and then pass a comment or even join the discussion even if you think it is not meant to be a public forum
Have your favourite oft-repeated punchline like when I was in xyz college/ company/ country
Do enthusiastic class participation in all meetings- do not let the speaker continue in his tempo- keep debating every sentence. If someone tries to ask a question, quickly rephrase that and pretend it was your query
Do all your private fights/ romance on a public phone- like office/ hostel phone- make sure everyone in the vicinity hears it. after that you could even cry publicly
Send meaningless and heavy forwards especially the ones which give the warning as to how many people you should send it so that you get instant love/ good news on the job front
Look at the negative side of every incident- keep complaining about everything under the sun
Always have a pronounced frown on your face or the "all of you are stinking rubbish" look or on the contrary be diabetic sweet with every one.
Instead of settling things amicably be rude, pick up a quarrel or accuse
Show off
Be un-cooperative
Always come late for any meeting and if the meeting has started, ask for a quick review
Talk about only 1 topic everytime and with everyone- like how bad your workplace is or what is the latest on your pregnancy or child rearing skills or how wonderful your child or other half is or some other of your current favourite topic
Painkillers anyone???

Ask a working mom " how can u leave ur child and go to work? "
Ask a stay home mum" Dont you feel like working?"
Oh dear! I hope these are all irritating qualities in different people and that no single person you know possesses ALL of these attributes!
That's a really nice list :)
Ask somebody you met in the movie theatre, "Did you come for hte movie?"
Every time somebody is getting coffee, tell them why coffee is bad and why you quit
Good ones.interesting.

that list :(
Sorry - that was a wrong link - I couldn't find the right link :(
I heard that the best way to gain someone's irritation is to not agree with them when they are talking about their problems. Like if someone is pained by their boss and wants to talk about it... just say: "oh.. but he is such a nice guy!".
