How To Irritate People by John Cleese

I must watch this tonight. I own it. I have a few skits up my sleeve. Try this one...even my ex-husband got irritated by this one....our friend Jim who looked like Fred Flintstone would come over and stand there and watch...arms folded...drove Kevin nutzoid...me too as I sat at the bottom of the hole where the septic tank was crying and covered w/rain and mud as I dug to uncover the tank with my raw fingers..."

" A friend comes over hopefully to assist you with a chore you are having a hard time doing by yourself. They do show up but they stand there and cross their arms and chat while you do all the work. That has to be one of the most annoying things I have ever experienced. It happens all the time! Don't they even think of picking up a shovel or a paintbrush or anything? I just could NEVER stand there and watch someone work...I would have to help even if i was hurting. My conscience would tell me plus isn't that what friends do? Jump right in and work alongside you? Well in my whirled it is. Those friends are very few and far between. My family does this. If you are going to help someone please help them...do NOT stand there and watch them kill themself...either don't come if you are frail and weak or put your work clothes on and jump in....nothing more annoying folks!!"
I'm sure i could come up with more but I'm too tired.....
