People being overly descriptive of food, especially the phrase “lashings of butter” it makes me cringe but I don’t know why

I don't get the snobbery about audio books, so what if the book read was the audio version. What would you prefer people say, "my dyslexia/eyesight/Parkinsons etc is so impactful I find it more comfortable to go with audio format". Jesus.....

People that wait till they're at the till and all their shopping has been beeped through and the assistant has told them the total and then, and only then, do they start rooting around in their bag for a means to pay. What? Did you think you were getting it all for free? Aaaaaargh!!!!!

The double toilet roll holders you find in public places (and my office!). The end always seems to disappear and I seem to spend ages rolling the roll around hoping the end will drop down. Drives me nuts.

Things that wind me up for no reason.

I saw a girl yesterday with eyelashes so thick and long that she could barely open her eyes.

Come to think about it, that might explain why she ran into me, at full pelt

Traffic light queues and cars that leave a big gap and then inch forward and stop then inch forward again ,waiting for the lights to change. It drives me insane- especially on hills. Just drive up and stop.

But how can you get your purse out at the same time as bagging the shopping? You can pause the bagging to get your purse out, but that's the same amount of delay as doing it at the end.

You do it before you start packing- I put my purse next to the bags.

When you've put a new toilet roll on the holder, and someone changes it so the piece you're trying to get is underneath and not on top, if that makes sense. You can't just pull, you have to reach under lol.

I can't imagine Claudia Winkleman without a fringe lol.

@Allthecatsandcosyblankets the OCD thing! It's almost like some people brag, "my house is so tidy because I have OCD , what am I like eh?!" Yes Sandra , it's completely the same as thinking if you don't make a cup of tea in the same way every day, something bads going to happen to your family lol.
