When my wife sneezes she never just does 1 or 2 or even 3 sneezes. She always goes for like 10 in a row.
It pisses me off. Irrationally.

The autocomplete in Microsoft. At least on Outlook. When it predicts your next word and you tab to accept it, shouldn't it automatically put a space after that word? It doesn't then I run the next word into it and have to go back an correct it.
