Some people are more easily annoyed than others. They may be far quicker to lose their cool than they would like to be. On the other hand, those who are more patient live life as though they can endure any level of inconvenience without having it impact their mood. For the ones who are quick to anger, the inconsiderate actions of people around them are usually the root cause of their annoyance although others might see things differently. Perhaps, those who are easily bothered by little things lack the ability to just let things slide.
Many times in life, we just have to let things go and decide not to think about them after they're done, even if we feel what happened was super unfair.
Are you one of the many people who are easily annoyed? Do the littlest things get to you and do people know you as someone who is a bit of a hotwire? To find out for yourself, take this quiz and we'll let you know if you get annoyed too easily.

You are not easily annoyed.
You are not one who’s easy to annoy. Some might say you have the patience of a saint.
You got: You are not easily annoyed.
Wrong! I get annoyed very easily. I am so frustrated when somebody is not doing what they’re supposed to do. I am easily annoyed. But I’m patient. Sometimes.
I`m not easily annoyed, I don`t know about that, I go ballistic if I hear a neighbor’s dog bark all day long when the neighbor has gone out and these days you got to watch what you say to strangers because they could pull a knife / gun & you could end up dead.
Yas I agree with one day that happened I had to stay at my friends house bc the dog wounded shut it and the neighbor didn’t but he did when I yelled at it
You aren’t easily annoyed
Easily annoyed.
You got it right this time. I don’t have any patience with people, am not a people person and have a volatile Irish temper.
