Annoying People

The best way to handle annoying people is to ignore whatever they do, but to start with that you've got to have a big heart. A really grudge-free heart. I have tried it before and it took me a few weeks to ignore the inconsiderate commuters and kiasu aunties on the streets. Before you know it, the light ignorance evolves into forgiving people's inconsiderate actions.
I'm not a person who is willing to take my day at a leisurely pace as it irks me to be walking so slow. That's why I can assure you that you don't not necessarily have to be a relaxed person to ignore people that gets on your nerves; just be who you are and don't "Tsk" whenever someone bump into you or step on your foot. The key point: smile.
You don't have to be so serious. When taking the public transport or seeing your friend commenting something that he feels is funny (but offending to you), take it lightheartedly. It is inevitable to see things or people you don't like, so just smile and keep quiet, but meanwhile do not bear a grudge! Do this often and you will see improvements.
If all else fails, keep repeating "Huh?" when your enemy/promoter/insurance agent bugs you. Works like a charm ;)
