My vent of the day - clearing your throat
There's a woman down the hall from me, who every 15 seconds will let out a little woosy cough or clear her throat. She's been doing this for THREE f'ing hours!!!!!!! I want to go down there and whack her on the back! Just cough ONCE lady and get it all out!

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
I work with someone who clears their throat before they speak. I made it into a little game - I get a point every time he does it, and he gets a point when he doesn't do it. I am winning a zillion to zero.

Go and drop a bag of cough drops on her desk and say...please stop.

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
I'm sorry you have to listen to that!
As someone who suffers from sinusitis and post-nasal drip constantly I can understand her need to clear her throat "a-hem" all the time. It stinks and I annoy myself!

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
At least they clear their throat. My pet peeve is when people keep talking and have that raspy phlegmy sound going while they are talking!!

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
There are actually some medications out there that can cause a person to have to do this. My father is on meds since a stroke 8 years ago and he clears his throat every ten seconds. I'm serious, it's ALL the time. His doctor said it's a side effect from the meds that he needs to clear his throat. He's on two meds that a huge percentage of people over age 50 are on.

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
My DH does this-I think it is a nervous thing too. He won't admit it but anytime he has to say anything that may be seen as controversial he does it! he gets pis$ed off at me when i tell him this though

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
I get allergies and esp in the morning I get congested....or when I get nervous and I feel like I do that a lot too....I'll have to be more conscious of it now!

Re: My vent of the day - clearing your throat
I had an ex that cleared his throat every time before he spoke. It drove my family nuts. He did it so frequently that I got used to it after a while.
