Interesting thread

And just so I'm clear, as it appears from subsequent posts, the power bracelets thing is not really relevant. Your question is 'why do people get irritated by other people?'

Irritability is an excessive response to stimuli. The term is used for both the physiological reaction to stimuli and for the pathological, abnormal or excessive sensitivity to stimuli; It is usually used to refer to anger or frustration.

Irritability may be demonstrated in behavioral responses to both physiological and behavioral stimuli including environmental, situational, sociological, and emotional stimuli.

For example, I believe that you are a c**t (excessive response) because you're a s**t-talking, self-regarding wind-up (stimuli) and I'm quite happy to remind you of that fact every time you set sail on yet another of your endless crappy trolls (behavioral response).

I hope that answers your question.
