What annoys you about someone that has no effect on you whatsoever but still irritates the hell out of you.

[gettingolderandgrumpier]

a colleague will not put her phone on silent ( in case of emergency) but will leave in her bag and every times it rings and it’s often a cold call she will leap in the air in panic to turn the phone off .
I’ve said leave it on vibrate , leave it on your desk so you can turn it off quicker but no . She never answers it and grumbles that it’s cold calls .
I’m not bothered about the phone ringing but this leaping up in panic and a mad scramble for her phone makes me want to hit her with her daft phone .
why not leave on your desk or stop panicking every time it rings I don’t get it .
i know it has no effect on my life but I’m worried she may have a panic induced heart attack ( I’m joking ) .
share with me lighthearted irritations that you have.

@HeavenIsAHalfpipe I have just been forced to eat my dinner in front of the rugby. 😂I don’t mind rugby as a game but let’s just say I am not a fan of the current England team…(cringe).

The way my mum says ‘oction’ rather than auction (at every opportunity because I once told her it was annoying). Also using the word jobby/jobbies when she can’t summon the appropriate word. Sorry mum but it really pees me off (as you well know)!

People who plan what they are going to say in a confrontation/ argument that hasn’t actually happened yet….
’and if they do say x y and z to me then Il just say this and tell them about that’ etc etc and on and on.
Get a grip- nothing has happened!!

Another one before it fills up, people's overuse of a question mark or explanation mark. When people message me doing this it gets my hackles up right away and I want to say to them fucking stop it!
One is sufficient, not "what time are we leaving???????????????"

😂 Parenting seems to be about letting other people over hear what a detailed thought out response you give your child and what amazing learning you are providing them (when people are in ear shot that is)

Or follow up a question message with its own line of ?????? in a bid to prompt you to reply more quickly!

I do this all the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I like to let off steam as I work in editing, so enjoy breaking the rules in my leisure time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@BustyLaRoux and @Biilie82

My dd had a speech delay and I was told to speak in that way.
I do it for my dc to get her speaking not for anyone other nosey judging bastards benefit.

My mother suddenly developed a really weird pronunciation of “but” a few years ago, having pronounced it perfectly normally for the first 30-odd years of my life. It’s hard to describe - it’s a bit like the “uh” sound in the middle becomes a cross between “uuh” and “ooh”. So whenever she thinks someone is wrong about something it’s “Yes, I get what you’re saying, boouuut…”

Why?! I can understand someone struggling with pronunciation of a word when they first hear it, but why would you suddenly get it wrong after over 60 years?!

Yes the "It's not my job" cnuts
Usually litter bugs as well.

People who steal colleagues’ stuff at work. Teabags, milk, biscuits. I despise those people.

Arghh yes this too! Xx

Xx

pronouns shouldnt irritate me but im fed up of hearing about it now

Aww, you poor thing '@CountingMareep !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry @WoofWoofBeachLife

You are me 😂
people who wants to cuddle all the time
people who makes fake smile
people who are extremely loud in pubs with big fake laughs
British weather

Yep, yep and yep 💯 🤣🤣

@MrNorrell You can walk but have the treadmill set high on incline. That way it's actually somewhat stretching.

Also contouring. That much make up makes you look like a drag queen.

Yep, I have a strong face so it wouldn't work for me. I was born female but even look at tutorials for what a TIM/transwoman should do with makeup. Mine has to be as soft as possible really.

Jobby 😂 Does your Mum not know what a jobby is?

lmao roflcopter

Argh. I've lived with three separate people who did this in the past tense. "If they say x y and z, then I told them about the thing and they said a b c, so I pointed out the other thing" ... WHAT? I'm all for hypothetical planning (within reason), but not when it involves convincing yourself the scenario's already happened 😬

I had a colleague that had a longish commute into work. She would arrive in the office and open a tupperware pot of seeds and proceed to pick at them like budgie. Why not eat your seeds on the train? I was irrationally enraged by this as I hyperfocussed on this, and would start timing her to see how long it would be before she reached for her Trill.

@HeavenIsAHalfpipe if you were my OH I'd divorce you for that 🤣🤣🤣
