Silly things that give you the rage

Yeah, just take a shower and wash with soap.

People who don’t know the difference between ‘His’ and ‘He’s’ - I see it all the time… they are 2 completely different words
People who start putting their shopping on the conveyor belt before i’ve finished putting mine on give me the rage!

This was mostly my fault but I still gave myself the rage. I parked in a supermarket bay today and instead of being centre in the bay, I was close to the line on the right. When I came out to a largely empty car park, some numpty had parked beside so tightly I couldn’t open the driver’s side. Had to scramble across from the passenger side. I couldn’t work out whether to have the rage at myself for not parking centre in the space or rage at the person who instead of parking in one of 50 free spaces decided to box me in instead.

I then had the rage for not knowing who to have the rage at.

I can't stand to feel people's breath on me. We were in a queue for the bar at a concert recently and my friend could sense I was about to lose my shit and sent me to wait to the side while he got the drinks.

I call this performative sneezing. Mostly practiced by men. I can hear my next-door neighbour sneeze, so fucking unnecessary.

When a delivery driver plops my parcel down next to my bin without even attempting to come to the door to see if I'm in, then marks it down as "delivered to resident."

I once had one marked as "left with receptionist" which had literally been chucked over the gate. Didn't realise I lived in a clinic!

-edited for typo

My mil called it covic

This. So much,

Plugging in a USB - I always get it the wrong way round 😫

@MeyerBennett my mother does multiple wet sneezes and it gives me inexplicable rage! She always has a proper lady sized hankie to hand - tissues won't do - but still makes me almost vomit!

Rude

People on Mumsnet who put up the first answer, yet feel the need to copy the entire original post. What exactly do they think we think they’re answering??

People on the radio and TV who speak badly. In fact, anyone who uses a glottal stop instead of the letter “T”.

Your MIL sounds like my auntie!
Mrs So-and-so down the road went to Emphasis (Ephesus).
Mr Next door has got dimension (dementia).
Her other niece, Wendy, she calls Windy or Wandy and she is actually her Godmother.
She does the talking with mouth full too, it's disgusting.
She drives me mad and makes me laugh at the same time.

I had someone try and schedule an hour long meeting (that had already been entirely addressed by email..) for literally the busiest time, on the busiest day of the week deadline-wise for me. In a stupidly busy week. This is a departmental known deadline that happens every week and needs handling or loads of stuff will not be cleared to happen.

I ignored the meeting. But cripes, my diary is blocked out in red with reminders of the urgent deadline. If you do not have an urgent update that impacts the deadline, do not call me/ schedule a meeting.

There were four people together on my train today who had a full complement of loud/annoying voices - they annoyed me so much I felt like a psychopath by the end of the journey

@partyboat356 its annoying! The bloke I’m thinking about even had his phone pressed to his ear, I was about 6 rows away and could hear it clearly!

Let me guess - they’re American and descended from a knight who rode with William the Conqueror.

I was in the lending library in town a few months ago and a man, who looked to be in his 70s, sat and watched a youtube video over and over and over again at high volume with no head phones. Hence, I am an expert on how to tie a Windsor Knot.

Being asked to review/give feedback on every single solitary thing you buy or service you use. If you don't, you get reminders to give feedback. And the feedback has gotten longer and longer over time with a series of questions asking about various aspects of your purchase or experience. Even having a parcel delivered 'how did your courier do?' They did their bloody job!

They can sod off. I only give feedback if I have a problem which is how it should be.😡

This is a bit specific to me more than a generalisation, but being told no!

It's getting to be my partner's favourite fucking hobby and I'm getting sick of it.

People watching or listening to their phone on a train with no headphones
Talking on the phone on a train, work or otherwise you’re on a fucking train it’s not your office especially when it goes on longer than a couple of minutes
People who always have to be first, on an escalator, onto a bus etc. not there while you wait but lo and behold at the front when it turns up
People who want their dogs to say hello to yours
Not sure how I forgot this one as it’s the one likely to get me into trouble but people who don’t pick up after their dog - I get so fucking mad at this one

Hard agree

Companies needing/ expecting you to have their app for EVERYTHING. No, I won’t want an app for the roadside assistance I never use, a discount German supermarket I occasionally go to, my energy supplier or to access one ticket to ONE gig. I find it so intrusive.

I don’t know where to start 🥴 everything seems to wind me up at the moment.

My husband will insist on choosing a film, we look forward to it and get all cosy but …. he doesn’t stop talking through the whole fecking film 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ve told him time and time again not to but he literally does it every single time. I make it obvious that I’m engrossed by not answering but he’ll still talk. It’ll be on an important part and he’ll suddenly ask “What date are your Mum and Dad going away? Do you think we need new light bulbs?” Seriously - boils my piss no end.

I also have no tolerance for:
Slow walkers at school drop off and pick up
Slow drivers
Neighbours that don’t stop talking
People pouting in selfies/photos
People taking a pic of themselves in a mirror holding their phone - what is that all about? Oh I look sooooo good, I MUST share this with the world. Grrrrrr

Anyway rant over 😂😂😂

Strangers getting too close to me. For example, in a queue for the till in a petrol garage and they stand 1cm from me and breathe down the back of my neck. THIS QUEUE AINT GONNA MOVE ANY QUICKER AND YOU AINT GONNA BE SERVED ANY FASTER JUST BECAUSE YOU’RE PRACTICALLY STANDING ON THE BACK OF MY SHOE!!!!!! … rant over 😂
