I don't know why, but i really can't tolerate people that talk really quickly and too much. Some of my girlfriends family are like this, whenever i'm near them and they are in full flow my brain feels overwhelmed, and i just have to get out of earshot otherwise i physically feel like shouting at them to slow down. I used to work with someone like this also, and i had to avoid sitting with them at break/lunchtimes otherwise i'd get really wound up and angry.

I can't explain why i react like this, does anyone else have the same problem?
 
I hate people who talk slowly more. Wasting my god damn time with every slow sentance as they pause between nearly every word.
Thats not to say I disagree with you about fast talking people, but if they make sense and are not just talking random crap then I'm not too bothered by it.
 
I'm a very hyper person and have been known to talk fast but I can't stand people who talk slow ie. Stephen Baldwin, it takes him 5 mins to finish a 10 word sentence.
 
The best the thing to is just slink away quietly, they wont notice you've gone, as they only wanted to pretend to talk to someone else, they really wanted to talk to themself.
 
Slow talkers are just as bad, or people that turn a sentance into a story (this is a woman thing).

Unfortunately my wife never shuts up sometimes, makes my ears cry.
 
Maybe cause youre just slow to feed in all the information being said...

I dont mind either, but it irks me when ppl that talk a lot (whatever speed they talk at) but never lets you say anything as a topic is raised that really bugs me, then when they finished talking and they say "so what was you going to say?" the conversation and topic has already moved on to 5 different topics
 
My aunt is constantly chatting every time I see her. My dad says she could talk the hind legs off a donkey. :D
 
I work with someone exactly like this. Doesn't shut up, talks drivel, talks drivel too quickly, uses the word 'like' all the time so that you end up saying it too. Drives me absolutely insane at times!
 
I can't stand it when people talk really fast. They start rambling, ask you a question but then answer it themselves before you get a chance with their own opinion/thoughts. Or when they talk/explain things really slowly again bugs the living **** out of me.
 
"I'm not talking too fast, you're listening to slow" That's the response people get who can't keep up with conversation when I talk.
 
I've had the problem of talking too fast (but not too much!) from when I was very young. It's all down to my brain working far faster than my mouth can cope and thus a rush of words come out.

It's something I have to think about especially when I need to get a clear message across.

I do, however, dislike people who talk too much.
 
My sister talks really fast, and she's really evocative in how she talks about things. I like listening to it, because she's so emphatic and it sounds like she's passionate about all the things she talks about, even really mundane, ordinary things.
 
Oh yeah it annoys me when people walk to fast, im like whats the rush. im with a group of my mates.. the two always set off, and usually you walk together with ure buds, but by the time we get to where want they are no lie about 300meters ahead . i consider it rude and unsociable to be honest. it really bugs me. i just wanna shout at them lol
