My five-year-old niece enjoyed her first few days of kindergarten, with one notable exception: her deskmate Timmy. “Why don’t you like Timmy?” ”Because he LICKS the desk!” There you have it. My new word for people who annoy me: desk licker. I’d like to ask: Question: What do you call people who annoy you?
Question: You can answer Cindy’s question — if it’s suitable for a family friendly blog: What do you call people who annoy you? Or you can opt for this one: Any memories from your first day of school?

What do you call people who annoy you? Stains. ;-)
I’m not intimidated by a woman who packs around a .38 pistol.

What is worse - first grade:
The nose picker, the yellow pencil chewer, the Elmer’s glue eater, the desk licker. The tuna fish sandwich bringer, the silent but deadly leaver, the spitter. The bully, the brat, the rat, the supper fat. The cheater, the pants wetter, the second time first grader. The teacher’s pet, the bad back to school haircut.

The woman in this video scares me more, than a woman who packs around heat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehta5Thc8iQ&feature=related
