Very small things that give you the rage

Mine are:

  1. when you run the tap and it either comes too fast or catches on something else in the sink, thus spraying water everywhere;
  2. catching my clothes on the door handle.

These two very minor inconveniences give me the absolute rage. Anyone else?!?!

I've got another one - mobile-only car parks. How is that even allowed? It's very ableist. You should always be able to pay by card or cash and not just on an app.

You can apparently phone, but you don't get a person, you get a "press this button then that button then we'll throw you out".

This was at a railway station. Fortunately I was there very early, so had the time to faff about with the app. There is absolutely nowhere else in the vicinity to park.

Yes, this. But it's becoming a big thing rather than a small one. And I'm forever seeing hapless punters arguing with the parking wardens that they did pay on the app, so why have they got a ticket?. So even if I fancied paying that way, I don't altogether have faith in the process, or my own ability to navigate it without cocking up.

Cars that crawl to an almost standstill in order to go over speed bumps give me the absolute RAGE

That's tough I'm afraid. Some smaller cars can't go over them quickly.

Agreed. But most can go over them without almost coming to a standstill.
