The worst types of annoying people.

[Mysterian]

The crumb leavers. You open up the pot of 'Fuck Me If It's Not Butter!!!!' and find it covered in crumbs. "They're only breadcrumbs" they say, but how old? And are they bread? Can you guarantee they're bread? I'm not eating 3 week old mystery lumps. Stop being disgusting and get some basic spread sharing etiquette. [also see jam butterers]

The upside down bottle right-way-uppers. The scientists at Heinz spend years of their life designing bottles of ketchup that stand on their lids to help you extract every last dollop. Society moves on. Some lids go on the bottom. Get over it.

Champagne spooners. You really think that champagne keeps it fizz if you put a spoon in the neck of the open bottle? A spoon blocks gas? That famously chunky state of matter? Sure, because I'm constantly having to mash air with a fork to get it into small enough pieces to breathe. [eyeroll emoji]

Life is unfaaaaiiiirrrrr....

People who keep talking to me when I’m not interested. Take the hint, I’m not engaging. I don’t know you and I’m not your sounding board.

Yep it’s very condescending, just apropos of nothing 😂

It’s really only men who I’ve noticed do it, I wonder if they think it conveys gravitas or authority or something

When someone is writing or talking about their "rescue dog" or "rescue cat".
It can never be just a dog or a cat.

My DH leaves his toast crumbs in the butter no matter how often I ask him not to.
Every time we have mash or jacket potato I take great pleasure in scooping all the manky crumbs into his portion.

This is how I felt about the PP a few posts up who was reading her Dostoyevsky when ‘book’ would have sufficed 🙈

I beg to differ. 🤓

People making/taking calls or listening to music over speakerphone in public . Shut the fuck up . The whole bus shelter does not need to be subjected to your tedious ramblings or dire taste in music . So bloody entitled

The people who take the last item from the big packed but put the empty packet back

Oh no, women do this too! Ex work colleague ( horrible, bully) used to say my name over and over again throughout every minor interaction. So if I asked if she knew what time the meeting started and in which room for example, I'd get " well julie, it starts at 2. Meeting room 5 Julie. Julie, it's very important to be in time... " it's a way to belittle I believe, as It's akin to how an adult would talk to a child. Really gets under my skin. I wish I had asked her why she felt the need to keep using my name when there was only the two of us in the conversation!

People who listen to their phone playing music/you tube etc because they can't be bothered to get their headphones.

NO - Not people on buses, but DP who does this all the time in OUR living room. I ask him not to do it because it is ANNOYING but he tells me I am not allowed to be annoyed and I need to adjust to the modern world.

Slow blinkers.

People that check in at hospitals on SM. Especially if they add a photo of themselves,

The same people post "Just when I thought life couldn't get any worse 🥺😭", expecting a flood of "What's up hun" replies (and getting them!)

This. And then when the table is finally placing their order say "you go first I'm still choosing"

This a thousand times over. I am just astounded at the rudeness.

People who don't take no for an answer. "I don't want to" / "I'm busy" / "I can't get there" isn't always good enough either

People who after asking my DOB, then say "ooooh Christmas Day!!!" . I don't need/want the obvious pointed out to me, I fucking know!!

The checking into A&E on fbk is ridiculous! Attention- seeking at its best and you're clearly not on your deathbed if you can type a coherent post on SM!

Yes I hate that too. I know someone who checked in on FB to A&E- cue several messages asking if he was ok .His response: I don’t want to talk about it. 🤣

Gen Z.
Yep all of em.

I work in a solicitors and I have women do this to me too, but it is mostly men. It’s definitely a certain ‘type’ of person, they’re generally very nitpicky and can’t tolerate something being not exactly perfect. I dread getting them as clients as you know a complaint is coming once you’ve finished the job and it’s always something that anyone else would have let go.

I think some people think they’re being very polite . My OH does it because in his job it was important to remember people’s names .He now calls people by their name all the time, even if it’s call centre staff. Drives me mad and makes me cringe.

People who go to pub quizzes and sit there on their phones all night. It’s possible they’re not cheating but very irritating when we are trying to decide when the Battle of the Boyne was or something and they’re just tapping and staring away.

People who say ‘you’ve had a haircut’.

IS IT?
