People sighing a lot really really pisses me off

Typically only when it's people I spend a lot of time with, like friends and family or co-workers, but people who constantly sigh drive me up the fucking wall. Whether it's sighing intermittently for no discernible reason; prefacing every action with a sigh, or a vaguely disapproving exhalation at every minor thing, it's really really annoying to me.

I'm a bit of a mouth breather (in the literal sense) on account of allergies, so I guess it's not my place to judge irritating respiratory phenomena, but to me, sighing tends to come across as a staple in any passive-aggressive arsenal. Am I weird here?

    My condescending asshole of a brother in law has this thing he does when he looks down on someone... it's like a "pfft ahhhh" sound under his breath as he rolls his eyes at you. Makes me want to break his god damned jaw.

    Sighing is a bit rude but so many people do it.

    I know someone who does these really powerful sighs right behind my neck sometimes. Fuck!

    If they are genuinely struggling sa bit to breathe it is one thing but people who have a habit of sighing - it is often a disrespectful way of expressing boredom, discontent, etc. Like an audible version of an eye roll.

    People have their pet peeves, but it could also be because you've been stressed lately, there's this thing called sensory overload where you are so stressed that anything and everything can irritate you greatly and quickly.
