Very small things that give you the rage

[Thepearlsthepearls]

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?!?!

Right now its Sytner Audi service department - someone was supposed to call me back at 11am today and they haven't. The twice I've managed to get through this afternoon I got cut off and NO-one called back! Now waiting for third time listening to stupid and annoying music to book my stupid car in that I got end of October and still isn't working properly despite being in twice.

Yes to the tap thing and catching sleeves or pockets on door handles.

My dh filling up the bin, be it the recycling one with massive cardboard boxes or the household one with things that could safely stay outside of it until bin day. It means the other rubbish piles up until the bins are emptied.

People using our driveway to do a three point turn. The road is wide enough and it makes my dog bark because of the gravel.

People stopping on the road to do something quick ie picking up or dropping something off at a neighbours and blocking our car in. Despite there being an empty space on our drive they could stop across.

Looking at an online recipe that has a good rating. Then reading the reviews to find everyone has put stuff like "Fabulous recipe, really tasty! I did tweak slightly; swapped the chicken for fish, basil for cloves, doubled the amount of cream, halved the cooking time, left out the potatoes and added spinach and chillis... - 5 stars!"
Well, maybe what you cooked was tasty, but you didn't really cook THIS recipe did you? So your review is of F all use to anyone! Getting cross just thinking about it.

Most of the above (I don't ride a bike or buy things online from individuals). I will add: the kitchen radio deciding to scan through all stations when I switch it on in the morning, and eventually blasting out some hideous noise. People texting in public places making ticky tacky sounds because they haven't bothered to make it a silent operation.

Needy companies data-scrounging with faux-friendly 'We'd love to hear your feedback!' emails/notifications.

You will experience my 'feedback' through my ongoing custom. Or not.

You should have a browse at the Reddit sub IDidntHaveEggs - it's a brilliant goldmine of this stuff! 😁😁

Having to rummage about in the cleaning cupboard under the sink to find that tin of polish or whatever that you rarely use, so it gets buried.
Drives me crackers.

Oh and those online adverts that stalk you harassing me to buy something I have in fact already bought.

I'm Sorry I haven't A Clue, especially Mornington Crescent and the stupid smutty double entendre. I really don't mind nonsense normally and it's irrational but Mornington Crescent really makes my blood boil.

People putting empty food packets back in the cupboard gives me the absolute rage.
DP shaving and not cleaning up the hair.
Toilet roll left on the vanity unit behind the toilet rather than back on the toilet roll holder.
Coats thrown over the bannister rather than hung on the coat hooks right next to it, likewise with shoes left on the floor in front of the shoe cupboard.
Thinking about it these are all DP so it's maybe just him that gives me the rage

The lock on the induction hob that rarely deigns to recognise my finger on the unlock button on the first go.

My TV going into standby mode and automatically switching off. I like it on in the background as I potter, if I wanted it off I'd switch it off!

I concur. Also when things fall out of a cupboard.

People who spell lose as loose

Really winds me up

Yes it is a Toshiba!

@Ilovedthe70s

Dirty dishes piled up in the sink. I get enraged every time I have to empty the sink before I can wash up.

Omg YES

bf does this whenever he is here. Absolutely murders me!!! Over Christmas I was like the dishes police over this!

@BeautyGoesToBenidorm I have never heard of that. I have little willpower so would likely lose many hours and then be too wound up to sleep. But I am tempted.

Accidentally biting down hard on the inside of my mouth/tongue when eating.

agree with so many of these...

@Woodlandarchitect Clothes without pockets - what about clothes with FAKE pockets! So you get the stupid zip or flap but no use whatsoever! Grr.

@Minniem2020 about the toilet roll... that was me, sorry

This!

When you go to grab something and miss first time. Even worse if you miss twice.

@ladygindiva

Yes it is a Toshiba!

@ladygindiva I bloody knew it! It drives me BATSHIT.

Hair bobbles scattered over dd’s dressing table EVERY DAY.
Dh kicking off his shoes and leaving them in the middle of the floor. EVERY DAY.
People hunched over shopping trollies, leaning on the handle with their bum stuck out dragging their feet across the floor. I just can’t cope with it.

Shoes that let in water.

When I click a thread on mn but at the last second an add finishes loading and pushes all the threads down so I open the wrong thing.

When I’m browsing Next and I click on an item to look at it, when you then go back it’s never to where you were.

When you click on a link and the page hasn't finished loading so you go to the wrong page.
When I have a drawer slightly open in the kitchen and spill something and it goes into the drawer.
