[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 281382, member: 179"] I find if you want to annoy someone really well, step into their personal space. I used to 'teach' about personal space all the time to my students. At 11 or 12, they don't get it. For whatever reason, I'd have a dozen kids in my face all talking at the same time. I'd yell, "EVERYONE! Take 10 steps back!" As the year would go on, I'd always have at least one kid recognize my frustration and hollar - 10 steps back! Now! Then there is the 'follower.' I would always seem to have at least one kid that was on my heels all the time. I'd turn around and nearly topple over him. One day, out of frustration I said sternly - Justin! Stop being a darn puppy. You're driving me nuts. He was also a profusely apologizer. I'm sorry, Ms. M. Sorry, sorry as he slinks back to his chair. Justin...stop apologizing. Start by not following me all the time. THAT's an apology. I think we should all make a nice tight circle around Star. Abbey [/QUOTE]
