What things irrationally annoy you?

I know these things are irrational but they really annoy me! Anyone else? What annoys you in a similar way?

-Bins without open lids. Oh has come home with a peddle bin and loves it. It’s been less than 24 hours and I already hate it with a passion and forget to open the lid (I was used to my open lid). I am going to have to get rid of it but not sure how. 😂 (All suggestions welcome). Wink

-Oh swallowing really loudly. In the evening OH will drink a large mug of tea and swallow extra loudly beside me. No one else’s swallowing annoys me, why does OH’s? Hmm

This is not irrational but colleagues, family and friends who offer you a coffee and make it incorrectly! I've drunk my coffee black for ten fucking years and yet I still get handed bloody milky coffees or offered cappuccinos and lattes! Angry

My dad is the only person in the world who knows how to make me a decent cup of coffee and I haven't seen him for over a year! 😢

People who call me 'hun'...it really riles me...also usually the same people who sell mlm shit on Fb and crow about being a 'boss babe'....its embarrassing...i cringe for them.

Having to peel the seal off a bottle of milk. It only takes a second but I find it really irritating.

Even more irritating though is the person at work who peels the seal half off then replaces the lid. I am not irrational to find that annoying!

Yes to the seal on milk @MsIreneWinters! Such a small thing but such a big irritant.

The flute. The sound of it really grates on me.

Bags of rice, pasta etc which claim you can open them, then use the sticky tag thing to reseal them.

Never work, EVER. That sticky tag thing is just one more bit of extraneous plastic in a world of extraneous plastic and they really, REALLY annoy me.

People that walk right behind you really closely instead of over taking, really annoys me for some reason and also people who call themselves vegetarians when they eat fish and people that sit right next to you on public transport when the bus is practically empty, just why???Confused

All of those sound annoying too!
