For me it is when you get hurt but like really bad and people ask you if you are okay....
Do you mind me asking? Just ASK!!
Hubpages told me my answer was too short so I'm adding this little extra just to get through the filter ;-)
When you tell a really long story and someone walks up at the end of it and asks, "What happened?"
That's simple for me: I'm a twin, so the question that irritates me the most, because people always asks, Is it you or your brother?
"Haven't you gotten "remarried yet"?" Me too, have to add some 3kdjvm>SZSdufn
How much do you make a month?... Hello, my income has got nothing to do with you!
When people keep on asking me why am I getting bigger and bigger?
Skinny people asking "Does this make me look fat?". Waste of my time!
I can't stand when a grocery store clerk asks you "Did you find everything you're looking for?" You always answer yes, even if you didn't, because you don't want to be the person complaining about not finding something with four people waiting in line right behind you! If you want me to find everything, maybe put more than one hard-to-find 16 year old on the floor!!!
~calm down, shhhh, take a breath...~
"Are you done?" Especially when it's a discussion or an argument.
Are you okay? It somehow irritates me specially if I look like I'm not okay.
Someone saying, "Are you sure.", after someone has already given an answer irritates me.
I would say the most annoying question of all time is, What's wrong? Whether it is from a friend or family member, It seems this question always comes up when someone is quieter than normal and most likely not in a great mood. This seems to be the one question that will be asked over and over. Does anyone like answering this question? Even if it is just because of a bad mood, this question makes my attitude even worse. Just leave me alone.
I'm a quiet person, always have been, so the most annoying question I get asked is, "Why are you so quiet?" I've never had an answer that satisfied the asker.
What irritates me the most is after I've told a long story and then the person ask, what you said? And i have to go all over again!
"What are you doing?" I hate that question. If someone took the time to notice what I was doing, it could be completly evident.
I especially hate it when I am asked that question during sex.
Why you left your job?are youreally happy as Home maker?
how are you doing? I am guilty of it too but we ask with out taking the time to listen to more than the one word answer that comes out.
My husband had back surgery 6 years ago. His back is fine but he has permanent spinal cord damage and nerve pain due to that damage. People are always asking me "How is your husband's back?" Hate it since it will never be better! Get over it and stop asking!
When waiters ask , " How was everything?" But you are chewing...
You're a vegetarian? How do you get enough protein? Arghhhhhhh!!
The one question that irritates me the most is "what's wrong?" What? Just because I don't have a 5 foot smile on my face doesn't mean I'm happy?! I am a very uplifting person with beautiful aspects on life, and I don't need to be asked "what's wrong?" just because I don't have the Joker's smile.
What do you do for a living? It seems to be the only question we ask and then we ask more questions related to what you do for work. I don't think we a defined by our work but people assume you are defined by it.
Absolutely hate when some clown asks, "Excuse me, can I ask you a question?" Dude whether I like it or not you just did. Furthermore what am I supposed to say anyway, no you shant?
"Are you okay?"
when the person asking knows that i am not. >.
When old associates don't see a change in our personalities when relating to them and get judgmental, assuming that we have not grown in our careers by asking... why are you in the same profession as 5 years ago? /
(i'm both american and english)
americans; do they speak english in england?
english; have you ever been shot?
Do they speak English in New Mexico? Or only Spanish?
Geography bozos. It is part of the United States, after all.
The one question that irritates me is when Im helping someone with something and they say, " Are you sure"?
Why?- i hate when i explain something to someone , then they ask WHY!
"Say What?" This is very annoying, although not as annoying as hubpages saying my answer was too short and making me write this sentence.
As previously stated by a couple of others, the one question that irritates me the most is "Are you sure?"
I feel like saying, "No, I'm not sure, I just wanted to hear myself talk".
Of course I'm sure, that's why I said it.
As a stay-at-home mom, two of the most irritating are, "what do you do all day?" or "how do you stand it?"
If you have a home, you know there is a lot of basic upkeep; if you have children, the amount of work goes up exponentially.
I'm very blessed to be able to stay home with my children and it is a choice I have made. We all have times when our children annoy us but, as parents, it's our job to love, teach and guide them as best we can.
My least favorite questions is
"So what's your job?"
I go on to explain that I'm a stay at home blogger...
and then they ask again: "I understand, but don't you have a job?"
Grrr....lol

THIS IS NOT A CYNICAL QUESTION!It is a serious question for people who are not Christians. If the 'other-than-Christians' are willing to engage in this discussion and Christians are willing to listen without interruption, this could be an opportunity for Christians to learn something about how...

When I look at the questions section of hubpages I see pages and pages of silly questions. A lot of the time, when I click on "unanswered" or "latest" I see that the same person has asked ten or so questions in a row. I suspect that in most cases this is because of the fact that...

So, are you just answering/asking questions to get an accolade? I am.

Are you offened when someone asks if you're a "believer"?Twice within the past two weeks I've had people ask me this question which I find terribly offensive. A darling young mother and neighbor, in front of her three children with lovely Old Testament names, blurted out at the end...
