Whoever the target is, be it a teacher or a sibling, there are many ways to upset others. If you're willing to take the risk, then you should be able to come up with creative, weird, and totally insane ways to piss off the people around you. Sometimes, something as simple as humming incessantly or refusing to turn down or mute a cell phone can really upset people. If you want to know how to piss people off today, read the first step below to get started.
Step
Part 1 of 4: Upsetting Strangers
Step 1. Speak loudly in public
Talking too loudly is a proven way to piss people off in public, no matter where they are. You can talk loudly on the bus, on the plane, or in the coffee shop when people are trying to work or perform their activities. Talking on the phone as if no one else is around can also annoy other people. If you reveal personal information, or simply make an unsavory comment or statement, you are guaranteed to upset those around you.
If someone asks you to be quiet, you should nod and apologize, but still speak loudly as usual
Step 2. Let your phone make annoying noises
Yes, mobile is probably the most annoying device you own. If you are in the office or in class, or are having lunch in a cafe, leave your cell phone on with an annoying ringtone. Put on a song like “Taking Care of Business” or “Who Let the Dogs Out?” as a ringtone so that when your cellphone rings, everyone will feel very disturbed. You can even set the song as an alarm, so you think someone is calling, when they're not. It's even better if you have trouble finding your phone so someone else has to hear the whole annoying song.
Installing a vibrate on the cellphone can also irritate other people. You may feel that the vibration of the cellphone will not invite protests as long as your cellphone is silent. But, the truth is, everyone can hear your phone vibrate and it can be annoying to hear it, especially if you're in a fairly quiet place. This will be even more annoying if you are chatting long with your friends so that your cellphone will vibrate continuously
Step 3. Try talking to the other person when he or she is clearly busy
While you should avoid approaching people who can throw a tantrum when they're angry, if you really want to upset the other person, then you can try starting a conversation with someone who is clearly very busy, such as studying for an exam, writing a novel on the computer, or just read with full concentration. Act like you're oblivious and just want to start a conversation. When the person answers casually, ignore them and keep trying to continue the conversation.
- You can start with “what are you reading? If I'm not mistaken, the book is very ugly." or make other negative comments related to what is being done.
- Keep talking about yourself, making eye contact so he feels compelled to have to ask you back.
Step 4. Drop your stuff in various places
This is another way to piss people off in public. Keep dropping books, spilling coffee, or acting like a messy person who can't take care of his things. The more items you drop, the better. Make as much noise as possible so others feel compelled to see and maybe even help you pick up dropped items. If you drop something into someone's personal space, then that person will become even more upset.
It's even more annoying if you don't apologize after dropping something. Or you can apologize so much that the other person feels sorry for you
Step 5. Look the other person in the eye
Staring is a great way to upset other people. Just pick a random stranger and stare into his eyes for a long time. You can even keep your mouth open while doing this. When he stares back, scratch your head and keep his eyes on him. Act like you're trying to win a face-to-face battle and try not to blink. But be careful, look at people who seem nice and won't get too angry if you do this. Remember that your goal is to upset the other person, not make him angry.
Step 6. Crazy business
Going crazy around strangers is another way to piss them off. Say you are standing in line at a coffee shop and you hear two women chatting in whispers about divorce or some other personal topic. Try to step in and say "I overheard…" and then offer an upsetting opinion about something you don't understand the context of at all. If you really want to upset the other person, you can even have an argument with someone else on the topic.
- Act like you're not crazy about business and it's your right to interfere. This is guaranteed to upset other people.
- You can also interfere and annoy the other person by asking questions. You could say something like "Did you know there's a gynecologist around here?" or “I wonder, where do you buy shoes like that?”
Step 7. Be amazed by every sophisticated item you see
Act like you just came from the past. Take a walk and be amazed at every piece of technology you see. If you see someone using a cell phone, you can say something like “Oh my gosh, that's a phone? We can talk to other people with stuff like that? Wow." If you see someone using a laptop, you can walk up to them and say “Can we communicate using this thing? Very cool!"
The important thing in this way is not to lose the character. If people see you smile, then he will be very angry. But if you can keep a character who's totally innocent and amazed at everything, they'll think you're crazy and don't know how to respond to you
Part 2 of 4: Upsetting Your Friends
Step 1. Imitate every word and deed
This is the perfect way to piss off your friend. If you want to upset him with you, then try to imitate everything he says and does. You can look like you're doing it on purpose and instantly copying everything, or it's a little more subtle and just mimicking gestures and movements. Seemingly intentional will be more annoying, but your friend can tire you out more quickly. If you're just copying the moves, you'll have more time to imitate your friend.
Act like a mirror. Do what he did in his mirror version. If he asks why you're doing this, act like you don't understand what he's talking about
Step 2. Complain all the time
Another way to annoy your friend is to complain as much as possible. Everyone hates whiners or people who complain just because they want to do it. It's even better if you complain about something pointless like the weather or what you see on TV, so that your problem doesn't sound serious at all. If you keep repeating the same complaints over and over, he will definitely get annoyed.
It's best if you complain by using annoying facial expressions and voices. Make your friend feel really uncomfortable
Step 3. Talk about yourself non-stop
People who are narcissistic or self-obsessed can be very annoying. When you are with friends, make sure you use the word “I” as often as possible and discuss your own problems or activities as much as possible. When your friend is trying to talk to him about it, change the subject or say you need to leave suddenly. That would certainly upset anyone.
- This action will be difficult to sustain for long, and your friends will distance themselves from you.
- It's more effective to tell a long, boring story about yourself without letting anyone cut you off. If your friend has already heard the story, that's even better.
Step 4. Try not to keep promises
Another way to piss off your friend is with a promise that you're going to come somewhere and then not keep it. It's best if you act completely sincere as if you're really coming, then at the last minute, make some lousy excuses why YOU can't go. It will surely upset your friend.
If you really want to piss him off, try to call him a few hours later so he'll be curious about where you went. A few hours later give him a stupid excuse like too late to watch cards or something
Step 5. Invite yourself where you don't really want to be
Another way to really piss people off is to invite yourself to hang out with friends when they clearly want to get away from you for a while. If you hear that two people are chatting and you really want to hang out together, ask what time you need to be there. If your friend says she wants some alone time, ask if she can hang in for a bit. Act as plainly as you are unwanted.
If you see your friend talking in whispers about something clearly serious, just walk up to them and say "hey, how are you?"
Step 6. Borrow something without returning it
This is both a ploy and a habit that can also annoy others. Borrow something like a book jacket, or your friend's favorite piece of jewelry. Then keep on promising that you'll return it without actually doing it. This is guaranteed to piss him off a lot and even help you completely get rid of the item.
If your friend has an item of personal value, he or she will be very upset if they lose it
Step 7. Tell your friend's secret
One of the most annoying ways your friend will be is to tell her secrets. If your friend says something private and needs to be kept private, try telling someone else. Speak wisely -- if the secret is really private, you shouldn't, but if it's just about something embarrassing or stupid, you could "accidentally" leak it in front of other friends or even publicly on Facebook.
If you want to get really upset, be naive when your friend calls and asks what you're doing. Say things like “I thought everyone knew! Or, "I didn't know it mattered."
Part 3 of 4: Upsetting Your Siblings
Step 1. Use his property without his permission
This method is guaranteed to make your brother upset. If you have an older sister, wear her clothes and jewelry. It can be very annoying if you show up at school wearing his belongings without his knowledge. You can also use your brother's video games or gym equipment and even take them to your friend's house. When he's angry, you can act like you don't know he's done anything wrong. Say something like “Sorry, I thought this was mine!”
- If you want to be really annoying, when he comes home with his favorite food, eat as much of it as possible.
- When you shower, use his favorite shampoo without his permission.
- Use her comb and make as much of your hair as you can in it.
Step 2. Disturb him when his friend comes
There was nothing he hated more than being bullied by his own sibling when his friend was at home. So, if your sibling is having a sleepover or hanging out with friends at your house, be around them as often as possible, annoy them, make nonsense comments, or ask if you can join in. If they keep kicking you out, find excuses to stay near them such as pretending to be looking for something in the room they're in. Also try humming while doing this for a more annoying effect.
You can also embarrass her by telling an embarrassing story like "Hey, my brother has friends too."
Step 3. Mix everything your brother does
Another classic way to upset your sibling is to tell your parents what he's done wrong. The things that are complained about can be trivial, such as not washing the dishes when asked to do so. Do this as often as possible and make him feel like you're always watching him. If you continue to do this, you're likely to annoy your parents too.
It's even better if you convince your sibling to do something bad or do something bad together, then complain that it was the idea
Step 4. Be a messy person
No one likes living with a messy sibling, especially if the two of them sleep in the same room. If you're lucky enough to sleep in the same room as your sibling, leave your clothes strewn all over the place and make the room as cluttered as possible so he's having a hard time finding his own stuff. You can also spill some toothpaste down the sink, drop food scraps on the floor, or do anything else to make a mess in your sibling's circle.
This method will certainly not last long because your parents will ask you to clean it. But nevertheless this method is still effective whenever you can do it
Step 5. Complain until you are served
There's nothing more annoying than complaining and acting like a baby until you get what you want. If you want to really upset your sibling, the next time you want to do something, like ask for a pizza or borrow a computer, do it by whining, complaining, or crying until he or she is so upset that she can't help but start serving you.
There is no age limit for doing this. Crying and whining at 16 can be even more annoying because your sibling will be embarrassed to see you
Step 6. Embarrass her when she's with her boyfriend
This is a great way to completely disrespect your sibling's privacy and put him down completely. When you find out that your sibling's boyfriend is at home, stay around them as much as possible, be loud and annoying, and make comments like “Finally, you have a boyfriend. Remember when you were single and no one wanted to approach you?”
You can sing romantic songs or talk about love when they are making out. This will make them feel awkward and irritated
Part 4 of 4: Upsetting Your Teacher
Step 1. Too late
There are times when nothing irritates your teacher more than a student arriving late. It can be really annoying if you apologize with a stupid smile or just walk in casually like you don't care how your teacher feels or the class doesn't really matter.
- If you show up just as the bell rings so your teacher can't protest (because you're not late), that's also pretty annoying.
- If you're unpacking your bag and taking a long time to get ready to study after arriving late, you're going to be even more annoying.
Step 2. Ask questions that have an obvious answer
Another way to piss off your teacher is to ask the obvious and show that you weren't paying attention at all. If you're in algebra class, ask "what does X mean?" Or other questions that make your teacher have to re-explain from the beginning or get annoyed that you weren't paying attention at all.
- You can also wait until the material has gotten a little deep and act like you weren't paying attention. When the lesson is almost over, ask questions that show that you weren't paying attention at all. You could even say something like "Sorry, maybe I was imagining it."
- You can also ask irrelevant questions like "Soekarno's hair was what color at that time?"
Step 3. So know-it-all
Some teachers can get very annoyed with knowing students. Admit it, your teacher should know more about the material than you do, and if you act like the teacher is wrong, ask him to prove his point, or go online to prove he's wrong, you're guaranteed to upset him.
It is also annoying to quote other teachers or your parents to show that your teacher is wrong
Step 4. Sleep in the classroom
Teachers certainly hate students sleeping in class. If you want to make him really upset, then you can try to do this as often as possible. It would be great if you could snore or make other students laugh. Sleeping in class won't improve your grades, but it will certainly annoy your teacher. It's even more annoying if you sleep long enough, then wake up and ask the obvious question.
Step 5. Disturb other students
Upsetting the teacher over his own actions is bad enough, but if you involve other students in this effort, you will only irritate him even more. Pass notes to other students, make funny jokes, or have a chat with them. Be funny and stupid so other students pay more attention to you than the teacher. This can be really annoying, especially if you can get normally well-behaved students to come along.
Show funny YouTube videos to other students. This will be annoying for a few seconds before your phone is confiscated
Step 6. Finish your exam too soon
Another way to piss off teachers is to finish your exams too quickly which makes other students nervous and restless. Wait a few moments so that you seem to have answered all the questions, but long enough that the other students are almost done too. When you're done, say "done" or even "easy too." Take the exam proudly, slam a pencil, or even stomp your feet. Do whatever it takes to annoy and irritate your teacher and other students.
