Annoyance
Annoyance is an unpleasant mental state that is characterized by such effects as irritation and distraction from one's
conscious thinking. The words definition is also similar to the word
perturb, however, perturb has been replaced with the English word,
disturb in modern English society. It can lead to
emotions such as
frustration and
anger. A person can be annoying to one, but not to another. This is all a matter of opinion.
