Help answer this question below.

Mostly from white folks. However, I think that is because I have lived in predominantly white areas most of my life.
When I lived in a predominantly Hispanic area Hispanics annoyed me the most.
If I lived predominantly amongst my own ethnicity, they would piss me off the most.

Caucasians. My race. Because I live in a fairly homogeneous society, at least 80% of my acquaintances are Caucasian. And at least 80% of my troubles come from them,

NASCAR. I live near a raceway, and on race days, those NASCAR people make it impossible to do ANYTHING. Blocking the roads, filling the gas stations and stores to buy their beer and camping supplies, and having all those jets come into the local airport.
NASCAR is a pain.

Republicans.
They seem to equate themselves with humans.
But they act like aliens.

White people. And I'm the pastiest cracker on Earth so I can say that without feeling bad at all.

It is not the race. It is more a country, Nigeria. I have had problems dealing with Nigerians. I don't want to stereotype a country, but Nigerians seem like they are always trying to rip me off.

I've been screwed over by white folks the most. It is most likely that way because I deal with white folks (Caucasians) more than any other race. I'm not racist because I'm white, and I don't hate myself.

No one really. Well, expect for the Jews, Mexicans, blacks, Asians, Arabs, Canadians, Southerners, Indians, Native Americans, Eskimos, Eastern Europeans, Western Europeans, Northern Europeans, Southern Europeans, Californians, Idahoans, gays, Australians, South Americans and Aborigines.

My own, white, largely because that is the majority where I live.

I'm white, and my answer is white.

I don't know if it's possible to answer this on racial grounds. Certainly, the people I have had most trouble dealing with are those with blinkered views and closed minds, and they could come from any background.

Who do you hate? Don't worry. I just decided I make up all the rules and it doesn't mean you are a hater.
Make some sense. Just because you say I am not being a racist does not make it "okay" OKAY? This is not the kind of question that makes friends on here. You are causing trouble. Okay???? RACIST.

In addition to the race I don't get along with (Arabs). I'll add the race that I find absolutely charming. Vietnamese. I find them to be the most hospitable, kind, caring, humble, non-aggressive and sweet-natured people out there. I know we like to say "people are the same everywhere you go" but that's never been true.
by Who Is She on November 4th, 2009
I live in London and the most belligerent in my experience are those of Jamaican origin, (even those of African origin hate them though those of African origin can be pains in the ass too in my experience). When I lived in the south of France the Arab population were the problem race and the blacks were quite peaceable. Different groups seem to behave differently in different host countries. Just get a load of how Brits behave in some parts of Spain - I'd avoid 'em.
by Gypsey on November 4th, 2009
I see people giving a lot of politically correct answers. Well, screw it....
Arabs. About 15 years ago, I was managing an apartment complex near an Air Force base. As anyone knows, in a large apartment complex the rent is the rent and the lease terms are non-negotiable. These guys try to bargain like it's a turkish bazarre. What should take 30 minutes, takes hours because of all their arguing. They even tried bribery (with money, jewelry and cheap perfume). Then they trash the apartment and skip on the lease because they know we can't collect in Saudi Arabia. Their wives were not allowed to leave their homes - or even answer the door- when their husbands weren't around. So, basically all day these guys are at work and the women can't even go out for some fresh air.
I've had many other encounters since then and they were all negative.

My own race. Because they're in the majority and there's a large percentage of muppets among them.
by Scotslass on October 31st, 2009
Despite being Scottish myself, there are a lot of Scots people who live up to the national stereotype of being a miserable and dour bunch.
by Jadey - Vive la difference on October 31st, 2009
White Eastern European
Not surprising really, I have worked with more White Eastern Europeans than any other group, so makes sense I would have accumulated more examples of work-place annoyances with them... all of it was down to a different work ethic and different ideas of work conduct.
by randomness - is now a Maestro on November 4th, 2009
Mostly white people. I'd say that's because I live in an area where most people are white.
by Mavericks just doin a flyby on November 4th, 2009
Well, if Assholes could be considered a "race", which I think they should, then that would be my answer. Other than that I've never had trouble with people of a certain race.
by MRSHINYSHOES on October 31st, 2009
Eastern Europeans, from Slavic countries (Russia, Poland), and some of the Middle Eastern peoples like Turkish, Lebanese, Iranian, etc. It's not that I don't like them---on the contrary, I go out of my way to be nice to them, but I even when I try to be nice they are generally crude, mannerless, aggressive, and don't know how to act politely in social situations. I don't know why, but this has often been my experience, especially with first generation individuals and living here in multi-racial Canada. And I also find quite a few Australians rude too---to the point of being racist and overbearing. Maybe it's that weird accent they have. Lol.
by Elfie on October 31st, 2009
The ethnic group I have had the greatest issue with are first generation East Indians.
I specify first generation because people of the same ethnicity that were born and grown up here I've never struggled with, as the issues with the first generation seem to be cultural differences.
Why? Because they seem to be against deordorant, they push and shove to get on and off busses, including forcing their way in front of little old ladies, they let their children run screaming around apartment buildings due to the "children are raised by the village" mentality..
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on October 31st, 2009
I only know of one race, kdp. The human race. We all started out from exactly the same place...it doesn't matter whether you are religious or not. So are you talking about an alien race of "people-like" creatures? Happy Halloween Saturday to you! :) ((hugs))
by dumdum on October 31st, 2009
When I was in high school I ran the quater mile in track and in the state finals I got tangled up, smashed my face into the ground and got ran over by the ice cream truck before I could get up. I believe the truck was driven by a recent immigrate from Turkey but I never really held a grudge although I still won't eat the bird. +5

I used to have a lot of Vietnamese patients & the language barrier was tough. Many times I'd have to ask them to write down what they needed b/c we couldn't understand eachother. Don't worry - I don't feel racist. One of my closest friends is Vietnamese. He was born & raised in the US so he has no accent or anything & the language barrier could be w/ any race or group of people.
by Just Another on October 31st, 2009
Not sure about dealing with, but I have a hard time understanding an English accent, despite we both speak the same language. Benny Hill? Forget about it, especially when he started singing.

I can't stand those purple people with pink polka dots, they are such assholes! :o)
by HungryGuy on November 4th, 2009
At the risk of being called an alienist, I'd say Klingons. Just don't get along with the lot of 'em...
by Bob on November 4th, 2009
i'm white. i'm fortunate to get along with most everyone. statistically, since 85% of people around me are caucasian, of course i'd say caucasian. i've visited many indian reservations. i've found groups at each reservation of people who are very kind and respectful. however, i think that as soon as i drive on an indian reservation, i'm persona non grata. folks are short, bitter, avoidant. of course, if i were a native american who saw caucasian's lies and murder and deceit and ... well, i sure appreciate why there might be some discomfort there.

I know you are better than this commentary.
by Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot on November 5th, 2009
What commentary?
.
I am saying that whoever I live around is the one that annoys me the most. I have lived around whites most of my life, lived near Hispanics for a bit, if I lived near MY people they would annoy me the most.
.
I am generally annoyed by humankind, basically.
by Arisztid on November 5th, 2009
