Things you hate.

When people buy from wish/AliExpress/temu/shein type websites. Nobody needs anything from those places no matter how cheap.
Mother in law does it all the time then complains the items are broken, not as described, can't be returned, poor quality etc. Stop buying from them then!!!

Hahaha I love the randomness of all these things. Nothing relates to each other on the lists. Love the random specificity.

People pleasers. They enable and give power to the narcissists. Telling them they're wonderful and beautiful when they're enourmous arseholes. So they carry on bullying and abusing. Just stop it!

The infiltration of everything by ChatGPT and its smarmy bullshit damaging education, stealing intellectual property, creating slop and completely unnecessary demand for water and energy, increasing climate change. All the fucking apps and websites trying to force ‘AI’ on you, and making you scroll past it to get to actual content.
And breathe.

As a PP said, APPs. Especially Temu . I’ve never bought anything from them and never will. I’ve clicked on an advertisement to look at an item , but no, you can’t have a nosey , you have to download the app . No thanks I will do without . I hate them trying to blackmail me .

The first thing that comes to mind as I think about every day is feeding my children - yes I said it. I have a bloody anxiety about tomorrow’s breakfast already! And dinner! Absolutely hate it. It’s so rare they actually eat it without the fuss. All that effort trying to feed them good nutritious food, cooking and thinking what to cook that’d be accepted and not met with ble - most new things.
also hate Christmas - alll the unnecessary crap we buy for the sake of buying. All the hype from pretty much Halloween, same shit every year. I got to like a bit since having kids but still feel it’s ridiculous having to buy presents for adults and not just one but “bits and pieces”, don’t like receiving them, it’s usually something I don’t need unless I specifically ask for it then I see it pointless - can buy it myself, but I’m just playing along because DPs family are obsessed with it.

There’s a guy at my gym who makes grunty sex noises on the treadmill. MY EARS.

when people throw rubbish especially out of moving cars, people who see you go out of your way to hold a door open and don’t say thank you, the smell of compostable bags, when my sock decides to keep falling down inside my boot, could go on 😂

Forgot how much I hated this aswell until today- walking (actually running) through town and the bloody people who stop you for considering donating to their charity. I'm not mean, I give to plenty of charities but dont friggin ask me how I am today, to engage me in asking to set up a direct debit for your charity! Feck off!! I'm shopping FFS, its p'ing down with rain and you want to ask me a couple of questions and give you my bank details?!! If I want to donate, I will in my own time and in my terms. Whilst I'm on this I'll add that my MIL got totally inundated after she'd set up a direct debit to one, they then wanted to know if she would increase the amount she gave!!!. Just NO.

People belowing into their phones on the bus, I have often travelled the whole 30 minute journey into town being forced to listen to someone who seems to be able to yell for the whole time without pausing for breath

Sloppy chewers. Open-mouth chewers are the worst, but there are also people who still manage to swill food noisily with their mouth closed. People who can't chew without intermittently opening their full mouth with a loud "mchhllohm" sound.

People who moan "mmm" as they're chewing. If I can hold back from screaming at these fuckers, then surely they can hold back from going "mmm" in the first place.

Utterly sickening, and completely disappointing that they've reached adulthood still behaving like that.

I have thought of another one. I hate it when people refuse to move from a seat that i have reserved on a train. Then there the people who put coats on seats. I didn't realise that coats needed a seat. I hate it when people persistently ring until i answer just so that they can endlessly drone on about their trip to sainsburys. It never occurs to them that i didn't answer the phone straight away because i was in the shower.

😂

I missed out attention seeking posts on Facebook. Anyone who checks into a hospital but won't say what's wrong or posts a video or picture of them crying or looking sad should have an automatic ban for a month.

I did this just this week, except I got them all the way home before realising! It makes me so disproportionately, insanely cross.

I made a donation to Maggies in memory of a neighbour who died from cancer, a one off to honour her and it was what her family had requested. They now email and write to me, it makes me feel low level guilt.

Picking up a bottle of shampoo and conditioner, taking them to the till and realising I’ve got two bottles of conditioner or two shampoos!

I love this thread, I feel seen and heard! I thought it was only me who almost has a melt down when I find myself cleaning the kitchen yet again, muttering under my breath on bin night, wanting to cry when I change the bed, and being driven to low level insanity by apps. And as for the state of this country and in fact the rest of the world, I can only deal with that in small doses. The other day I worked out that since my marriage ended and despite having a couple of relationships after that I have basically done everything and paid for everything house wise for nearly 40 fucking years and I am beyond sick of it now. I sometimes contemplate living on tea and toast but I know that this is not healthy, very temptiing though

Also, even if you gave everything you own to a charity cause ( big or small ) the following week they would want more. My late mum was brought up in poverty in the 20s and 30s and can remember the appeals for charity abroad when they could gave done with it themselves. Plus the red nose charity is still after cash and some places are still without proper running water.
I always feel that something has gone wrong in so many sectors of the charity causes, who actually gets all the money they raise?

Charities annoy me. A local one to me pays its top bosses six figures. They argue you need decent people in those jobs to raise the money, but it feels wrong.
ds 2 works for one and donations are down , but when you hear things like this , it makes you wonder.

Another one has just popped up.
Beggy charity adverts, wanting your money for all on sundry (especially worse at Christmas!) and no word of thanks in the advert, in the hope you might be daft or rich enough to donate the vast amounts of money they're wanting from you!
If I put an advert out begging for money, I'd at least have the decency to add "thank you" at the end!

My late mum hated how ‘ Americanisms’ ( as she called it) crept in to everyday things! I guess we are influenced by many American shows and films to change some words. She also hated the fast food places that has eveything you eat or drink out of as throw away. She may have had a point though considering how much waste there must be.

Ditherers and faffers.
