Common Habits That Will Make Everyone Hate You

The old adage may tell us "to err is human," but to annoy may be just as human. Experts have studied what sorts of things we as people find annoying and why it is we find them so grating. Here are the most common infuriating habits most of us do.

If you've ever sat beside someone who shakes their legs, you likely had a hard time concentrating on anything else.

In an article for Psychology Today, Susan Whitbourne, professor emerita of psychological and brain sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, explained that anxiety, something everyone experiences, can be one cause of jittery legs.

The expert added:

"Your legs are the largest area of your body, so when they move, it's pretty hard for others not to notice."

Although most people can work to stop this habit, seven to ten percent of people in the United States can't just turn off their jittery legs. Those with restless legs syndrome, a neurological sensory disorder, experience "unpleasant or uncomfortable sensations in the legs and an irresistible urge to move them," according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
