Things that make you inexplicably angry

[ElsaMars]

Things, not people.

Here's mine, when my 8 year old creeps out from randomly hiding from me and shouts 'boo!' which she does quite often, I always yell 'Jesus Christ!' (I never normally say it) and feel the most massive anger, its bizarre.

Also, people beeping their car horns as a greeting and loud motorbikes.

@Notashandyta

People strap their dogs in??!!

Of course they do if they don’t want to break the law or get their dog killed if their was an accident.

When people leave chewed up chewing gum on benches etc for people to sit on/accidentally touch

Also, more irrationally, the sound of metal scraping against metal. When people clash knives and forks together - argh!

When I'm about to load the dishwasher and realise it needs unloading first

Opening packages especially large boxes. I know the goods need to be protected but why is there always so much tape and packaging and mess! Then having to rip up and flatten the cardboard. It's exhausting!

Hoover related. Used to have a Henry and it would fall over with a grin on it's face when you pulled the hose. When a hoover tries to suck up curtains or a plastic bag or anything it shouldn't it's annoying.

My ex used to violently snort in an attempt to release the bogies his fat dirty fingers couldn’t reach. Blurgh

Loud motorbikes drive me insane, normally to the extent that the evil part of me hopes they fall off the bloody thing (I hear them constantly outside my window from 1am-3am racing each other).

When the tin foil rips off badly, then it ends up being impossible to unwrap it ever again as every piece gets even tinier each time you try. (Yes I know this probably doesn't make any sense, but in my head it does!)

Plastic packaging that bounces out of the bin.

Felt tips. They're an accident waiting to happen.

A hot sunny day with the waft of dog mess from neighbours garden.. no they dont pick it up.. smell is revolting

Anyone who sneezes within my hearing range
Loud breathers, I can hear you from the other side of the room, why can’t you hear yourself?
Ready meals where you tear the plastic lid off and it comes off in shreads which then stick to your fingers and float about, all Sainsbury’s meals do this, Tesco’s come off in one piece.

Whistling or tapping, always a bloke in the office doing it, I’m getting annoyed thinking about it.

When someone always deliberately mispronounces the same word. ‘Squashages’ instead of ‘sausages’, for example. I can hear the direction the conversation is going in and I tense up waiting for it.

Dogs barking incessantly.
When I’ve done an ironing and one of the dc puts something on before it’s even reached a drawer 😡

lydia2021 ugh, their house must have dog mess in to then, I doubt the dog tip-toes round it when it runs outside. Poor dog. Poor you.

My family who seem to remove the loo roll of the holder to use and who then replaces it the wrong way round; going Under instead of going over.

People who think the red traffic lights don't apply to them.
Trying to find the end of sellotape, if it is a cheap roll, it just comes off in narrow strips.

Wet towels & clothes left on the bathroom floor.
DS19 cooking omelettes EVERY SODDING MORNING; I can smell it for hours afterwards and, although he cleans any utensils he uses, he never wipes up the grease splatter all over the hob.
DD17 leaving bras EVERYWHERE. I don't understand where they all come from.
The daily argument with DD9 about tying her hair up/brushing her teeth/getting dressed instead of rolling around in her pants.
The endless monotony of working, cleaning, cooking, other utterly dull household things, ad infinitum.
I could go on for a loooooong time as almost everything makes me inexplicably angry at the moment!

The sound of people eating/chewing or slurping their drinks.

People sniffing non stop.

Manspreaders

Mansplainers

When I'm cuddling my kids on the sofa and they press their heavy heads back hard into my shoulder joint. It feels vile and I get shouty.

@RUOKHon

When I’ve just cleaned the litter tray and one of the cats goes straight into it and does an enormous shit.

Mine does this. Stands there watching me emptying it and washing it out, then no sooner have I finished putting the kitty litter in he flys into and either takes a massive crap or a waterfall piss. Whilst I'm stood there like did you purposely just hold that in. Surely the amount that's just come out you clearly needed to go before I changed your litter tray. Sometimes though before he's had chance to turn round and bury his shit I'll grab it out with some toilet paper and flush it down the toilet. It's quite amusing to see the look of confusion on his face as he turns round to bury it and it's disappeared. The other one is frantically flinging clean kitty litter out of the box. My bare feet do not want to find that in the middle of the night when I get up to go to the toilet. Especially when it's rolled up wooden pellets and is like standing on Lego.

Jumping on beds.
Whistley noses.
Loud chewing.
Having one wet hand and one dry hand.
Morrison's.
Non soft close toilet seats.
Pears which REFUSE to ripen.
Drizzle.
Yellow flowers.

I could do this for days.

Water inside rubber washing-up gloves. Gives me a stabby rage.

Vest tops where bra is always on show...the tops I mean are the ones that are more shaped like sports bra at back. Or the tops/t-shirts with the hole in the back where you can see bra. I just don't like it. I'm not a prude either, I just think it is unattractive .

Men spitting/hocking up phlegm in the street.

Teenagers haring along footpaths on bikes without a care in the world for others (I did this a few times too when young!)

People who spend their lives keeping up with the Joneses...

@thebakeoffwasntasgoodthisyear

OH never wipes the crumbs/ mess from the worktop after making food. He'll make sandwiches in the morning then just go to work, leaving the crumbs for me to clear up. It drives me crazy.

Me too. I’ve found a way to avoid getting angry though - I simply gather the crumbs each time and pop them into his bag (he carries an annoying backpack everywhere). I figure if he likes the crumbs so much, he can carry them around with him.

Brilliant!

The sound of a knife and fork scrapping the plate.

People whispering

Also crap radio station phone ins. Jeremy Vine had one about plastic hedges last week, and was asking people to text in if they'd ever had an argument with anyone about them.

Nearly all of JV phone ins are crap and probably apply to about 0.5% of the population. And why oh why do they have the medical dr on at lunch time to talk about ingrown toenails, pus, diarrhoea , bums etc when you're half way through a sandwich.

Also when a company or person change a word that normally begins with c to a K. Eg Klean

Pears which REFUSE to ripen.

avocados!!
They're like wood for days on end and then all of a sudden, they're squishy and disgusting. I swear theyre only ripe for about 25 min at 4am
