People who argue just to "win" the argument. You'll know this has happened when you disagree over the schedule and find yourself hollering about the office christmas party 13 years ago.
People who are constantly negative. You could say to them "thats a great dress" and instead of a "thank you", you get a littany of problems. Everything from picking it out, to the horrible sales person, to the smell in the dressing room. Here's an idea: just take the damn compliment. Here's a fun game with these people. Say nothing to them unless they say something nice. See how long it takes. You'll be amazed but not surprised.
Along the same lines, when you say "hi" or "hows it going" to someone, and they take it as a signal to open the floodgates and tell you everything thats happening in their life. It was just a greeting.. honest. I'm not Dr. Phil.
How peoples brains cease to function properly as soon as they sit in the drivers seat of a car. Maybe a lion or hippo thinks you're some large animal with round rubber feet.. but people know it's really just you. So behave yourself.
