2.Hypocrisy

3.Unsolicited advice.

I don't know what "unsolicited" means.

As for incompetence and hypocrisy, I can't say. Both annoy me.

Unsolicited = not asked for

I've never seen the word used outside that phrase, though.

3. Unsolicited advise

I'll say incompetence because that one covers the other two quite nicely.

What about unsolicited mail? And I must say, I like unsolicited advise the worst, yet there are things I hate worse.

Basically, your trying to make a bad comparison, inadvertantly stating that unsolicited advice is equal to Incompetence and Hypocrisy. It's like asking, whch do you hate more:

Apples
Oranges
Hitler

It just.... You'll get the desired results, it's just very misleading and not very scientific.

Ps. Well, I never said I disliked *giving* unsolicited advice, just receiving it.

Interesting... I had assumed that hypocrisy would be everyone's first choice. I think mine would be unsolicited advice though.

Hypocrispy really annoys me the most, as over the years I have learned to deal with unsolicited advise and incompetence. (lol, I really should wear my glasses as I first thought you said impotentcy).

Definitely Hypocrisy...its is purposeful and often used by deceitful people.

I can deal with incompetency and bad advice...I get them all the time, but they have good intentions.

I don't know what "Incompetence" is. As for Hypocrisy and Unsolicited advice, I think Hypocrisy annoys me the most. Just when I post a stupid piece of CR*P on The Network, almost two days after, I receive (my own word) overflatters of my piece of CR*P. That's what annoys me most.

Unsolicited advice, closely followed by hypocrisy.

Incompetence is in a league of it's own.

Why isn't ignorance listed here? That's the one thing in this world that annoys me the most.

Ignorance is quite different from the others, which are basically character flaws. *Willful* ignorance could and should be on the list, though.
