This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

People and comedians who say
"AHHHHEM!" to indicate they've made a joke, or what they consider a witty aside.

"But we won't have the files to you until next Friday, because, well - I'm on holiday until then! AHHHHHEMM!"

"Of course, you couldn't tell he's from that part of the country! AHHHEEEM!"

Jo Brand does that.
It's quite annoying, especially as her jokes are about as subtle as a grand piano dropping through a greenhouse roof.

And nowhere near as entertaining.

So many but
Dara Ó Briain is one that does this to such an extent I get irritated the moment I see him on TV.

I would like to see what would happen if nobody laughed. Would they stop or keep going AHHHHEMM and start sounding like a loading Amstrad (or Commodore 64).

I've noticed
if you give a comedian something to drink, they will often pick it up and sip it after they make a joke.

Noel Fielding and Phil Jupitus do it on Never mind the buzzcocks.
