What silly and irrational things annoy you?

[HelenInHeels]

Ant McPartlin and in particular his wife lying about her age. She's always reported as being 46. She was born in 1976.

I agree about the theatre, same for cinemas. Also the latecomers - if you can't be on time you should not be allowed in.

Dog smell in a car, I do like dogs, but they do smell and I really dislike being in a car with one.

Flashy people who think they are better because they choose to spend lots on cars/clothes/houses etc. They always think others are jealous of them.

Beetroot being in everything.

Drives me bonkers as well!!

Regarding the winter coat in September...any damp in the air and my hair looks like a bush. So after I've had my hair done I wear my huge winter coat with the huge hood up so as to try and preserve my newly-coiffed hair as long as possible..even if it's not that cold..I do get some odd looks but I ain't paying all that for it to be ruined the minute I take the dog out!

Why is everything 'cool'? Getting petrol, photocopying, basically anything is cool. No, it's just doing stuff.

Having to accept or deny cookies every time you go on a website.

Then looking for the tiny cross because no I don't want the newsletter or the 10%off or whatever.

Then crossing off the daily deal or whatever.

Just to see something.

Then when o checkout of a super market:

No I haven't forgotten any of those items
No I don't care of if I've missed out any offers
No I don't think I'd like those things just because I be bought these.

I just want to check out and get on with my life.

I have this same exact same thing but with my cat 😹😹

Humanity.
Wilful blindness about the climate.

People who write...

Your instead of you're
Que instead of queue

Oh, yes @UpTheMagicChristmasTree equally at the cinema. Late comers used to be made to stand at the back of a theatre until the interval - not any more.
Can I add goons who expect everyone to stand up to allow them access to their seats at the other end of the row rather than use another staircase?

Elon Musk's face.
Dogs with no leash on their walk.
Messy tables and chairs at overpriced coffee shops.
Trump's face.
People trivialising/ glamourising alcohol.
Cigarette smokers.
Farage's face.

People who don't understand the difference between brought and bought....also allowed and aloud..My Facebook feed gives me the rage as all i can see are spelling mistakes.

When at a celebration, and lots of people want to take pics on their phones of the main family in front of the cake or whatever. They stand randomly and say ‘look here’ all at the same time and the photos end up full of people looking in different directions. Why can’t they just stand in an old fashioned queue and take them one after an another?! Then everyone would get great photos. Really annoys me.

I mean Ann Marie. No hyphen and no e. She's 48 not 46. I know someone who was at school with her. I don't think Lisa Armstrong is 53.

I have the big light and a lamp on because I hate winter

Thought this was just me and my 5YO. Constantly in my way while I open heavy doors while carrying heavy bags.

I'm training him to wait but it's a long old slog.

People who say "generally" in place of "genuinely" RAGEEEEEEEE

There's research on this that it is even more annoying for the human brain to hear only half of a conversation than listen to (for example) the whole thing - like a film/TV show - played aloud on a person's phone in public.

It's because our brains work to try to fill in the gaps we can't hear.

I was at school with Lisa she was in my year. For 4 years

I'm in perimenopause, so almost everything annoys me.

1. People (usually women, I'm afraid) in cars whose size is inversely proportional to their skill in driving them, so everyone else has to make allowances for them on busy roads.
2. London: one Eye, 8 million arseholes.
3. Stupid workplace/office bureaucracy.
4. Linked to 3: people who hog the pole on tube trains by leaning their entire body up against it.
5. Lazy, misogynistic tradesmen (it's always men).

I'm tired, so I'll stop there - but there are as many irrational things that annoy me as London has arseholes.

Parents who allow their children to use ipads in restaurants with the sound up while they play games or watch films. That's what headphones are for.

The loo roll put on the wrong way. More to the point my husband ALWAYS putting the loo roll on the wrong way. I now think he does it on purpose to assert dominance.

The phrase “washed down” with X drink to signify a particular beverage was had with a meal.

I also despise people who suggest getting food to share when we eat out. No Brenda, this is a treat for me and I would like to eat food I actually like rather than the shite you would choose.

This drives me mad!!
Also, people who don't use capitals in Mc or O' surnames.
Mcdonald or Osullivan.

This one's completely irrational. I hate the word 'cheat' in the context if cookbooks. As in 'Cheat's zabaglione' or 'Cheat's Beef Wellington.' It's across the board, but Delia's particularly a serial offender.
It's rude.

The word foodie.
Foodies.
Fuck off.
