First world problems that make you irrationally annoyed!

Just want to vent (lighthearted but kind of not). Went into the Bodyshop today to buy some new shampoo and conditioner and shower gels. First had to fight my way through about 3 people wanting me to try products, which I hate being pounced on. Then I got the shampoo and conditioner I wanted (this is a treat for me as more than I normally spend), and I had a hard sell at the checkout for various things, including upgrading to a refill bottle for shampoo and conditioner, I went for it as like to help the environment…but was in a hurry, get home to find THEY’VE BLOODY PUT SHAMPOO IN BOTH BOTTLES! I’m irrationally annoyed about this particularly given the way they pushed it on me, and the fact I went out of my way to go to the shop. What first world things have annoyed you today? 😂and would this annoy you?!

I've got another one - why has the BBC weather app decided that you have to sign in to use it? I deleted it and now just look at the website version.

And while we're on the subject, why do I have to create an account with European Athletics to see the results of events? Why aren't they public, like the results of UK events are? Just data harvesting, and it is annoying.

On loo roll - when it gets stuck inside the container in public loos and you don't know which way it's been put in, so which way you need to pull it.
