Stop it. Seriously, just quit. If you need to ask me a question and can't manage to do it without standing in my doorway clicking your pen in a ridiculously fast and annoying anxiety-riddled fashion, just send me a damn email.

You have the right to tie that person to their office chair, and surround them with those chattering teeth windup things if the pen torture continues. Either that, or borrow a few screaming toddlers from the nearest grocery store, and lock them all in a room together. Oh, and in order to get out, your coworker has to write a check. That oughta teach her.  |

LOL!!! This annoys me as well, although sometimes I catch myself doing it. So then I'm annoying myself.

Just as soon as you stop clipping your fingernails at your desk :-) LOL, I have one of those too.  Our weekly meetings I have to take everyone's pen's away that click. It was driving me nuts and they didn't even realize they were all doing it. My dirty stares around the room were not enough to solve this problem. ;D |

Ugh. Mine usually is, but once in a while my stink-eye seems to go unnoticed. Then I have to tell 'em to know it off.
::Just as soon as you stop clipping your fingernails at your desk::
LOL! It was only the one time and I didn't go to someone else's office to do it. now that you mention it, I do have one that's kind of jagged right now......

This is one of my pet peeves. We have a VP at work that walks around constantly clicking his stupid pen.

you caught me red handed! i've had one or two stern talking to's about my ticks that develop when i sit in (too long, boring) meetings.

Sneak around after hours and take all the click pens and replace them with the pens that just have a cap.
