Who or what didn't bother you 10/15years ago but now irritates you to death? I give you....

Kevin McCloud's voice.
Used to be in love with Grand Designs, over and over. Watched EVERY episode.
Now - I can't bear to listen (DH still watching them and feeling the love).
Sorry Kevin - it's me not you!
This thread isn't about lovely Kevin btw! Just an example :)
Yours?

All soaps (I used to love watching them)

My DHs homemade soup. Used to love it until I threw it all up immediately after eating it (I was 12 weeks pregnant) I can't even look at it now

People saying they’ve got or their child’s got a self diagnosed disorder (that is really serious etc etc) to me when they realise I’ve got an SEN child - and then telling me my child can’t be that serious as they look fine. And then talk about their blog. Aaaarghhhh!

@Gotyourback I did the same with scrambled egg can’t eat them now.

People who home educate

People who send their kids to boarding school

Basically anyone who thinks their kid is too special to mix with other kids.

I'll get my coat........

People's lives on FB.

Blogs, all blogs. Self published shite on kindle.

Christmas, i used to love it but really what's the point?

Eating out anywhere that isn't the park café with my dogs whilst wearing doggy clothes.

Leaving the house in the evening, i want to be in pyjamas by 6.

Dancing On Ice. Oh, how they have ruined it on its return.

Lipstick. Wearing it.

Hot weather. I just can't take it nowadays.

MIL 😂

Yes blogs too. Blogs and Facebook and Instagram.

So much navel gazing and sharing crap no-one else is really interested in.

Mick Hucknull
Rod Stewart
The big Bang , All the soaps, X Factor, Reading, Kids, you know those horrible whining little horrors.Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, A lot of my family & friends. Sex .
Chris Evans
Tennis, with all the grunting

TV here too. CBA and would rather read a book.

God. Thank you for this thread.
It’s not just me being a miserable old cows - we all are!!!!

High heels - haven’t worn anything bigger than 2” in a decade . Comfort is way more important. Still keep my “ best” stilettos though.

Clubs/ town pubs/ all day drinking/ getting pissed - can’t BEAR to do any of these any more. And I LOVED getting pissed! The hangovers just started to outweigh the fun so I stopped drinking. Well nearly.

Spending an hour or more talking on the phone - can’t be arsed anymore.

Zoe Ball - thought she was fab . I can’t BEAR the way she talks too fucking fast now. I’m devastated she might be getting Chris Evans radio show. Radio 4/ Capital/Virgin here I come.

Radio 1 - I just don’t understand it any more. I cried the day I re tuned my radios to radio 2- I knew I was middle aged.

Always going out with make up on- didn’t even put the bins out without mascara and lippy. Now I have been known to entertain friends to coffee and even go food shopping without make up!

Trans women. - thought they were hard done by 15 hrs ago. Now they scare the life out of me with their march through hard hard fought for women’s rights in their pink short skirts and high heels. Oh and self ID. I’m a giraffe today.

The food pictures on Facebook. - used to like them. Now I unfriend people who do it.

Serving food in/on things that are stupid. - used to like a bit of artistic flair with food. Now I just want a round white plate. I think I ‘ plate peaked’ about 5 years ago.

I’m sure there are many more but DH has annoyed me today and my brain isn’t working properly.

Gossipy magazines.

The rise of the pointless 'celebrity' Kardashians, Towie, Geordie Shore thankfully made me realise what mindless pap the magazines are. Just seeing them annoys me now.

'Coronation Street. I watched it for about 25 years and was pretty sure I would always watch it, other soaps came and went. But it just got worse and worse, I only watch about once a year now and can't see me going back to it.'
I used to love it too but l stopped a long time ago , l said to DH when we knew Jim was coming back 'ohhh we can watch it again now' . We can't bloody watch it now , Jim would never do this to Elizabeth it's total nonsense !

Celebrities too

This is so cathartic.

Yes to the ridiculous grunting putting me off tennis now too. So irritating.

I'm a celeb, big brother, xfactor etc I hate them now with a passion I think they've been going far to long.
Also benefit and Mac makeup over rated and boring

I agree with Yorkshire about serving food in/on things other than plates; I do not want my dinner served on a slate or in a mini urinal, thanks.
My fuse has got so much shorter in the last 10 to 15 years; my prediction is that I’ll go from calm to raging within seconds very soon.

I used to book my 2 weeks A/L to watch Wimbledonl loved it so much , I can't watch it at all now , it never used to be like this !

Ah another one....grunting tennis players.

Victoria Beckham, used to avidly scan the papers and magazines to see her latest outfit, hairstyle, gossip etc now she just seems really passé to me and I have zero interest.

Holly Willoughby. I used to absolutely love her but she’s everywhere now and I find her and Philip so bloody smug on This Morning.

The Beckhams ...the lot of them...
Elton John and his Husband
Meghan gone off her like a dose of salts

Celebrity Masterchef. Those are NOT celebrities and they cannot chef.

Most reality shows. Either the shows have changed or I’m just less naive than I used to be. They are so blatantly staged.

All soaps. There’s enough misery and angst in real life.
